National Assisted Living Week 2020 | Meditation and Reiki

Both staff and residents enjoyed an hour of relaxation on Thursday afternoon. They were led in meditation and reiki to relax and center themselves. Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It is administered by "laying on hands" and is based on the idea that an unseen "life force energy" flows through us and is what causes us to be alive. If one's "life force energy" is low, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy. 

Thank you Ann Marie and Diane for leading us in this relaxation endeavor!
