Over 5 days, Jennifer will guide you from the physical body to the subtle bodies, using the Koshas as a tool to aid in your journey of self-discovery.

Jennifer’s lectures on the anatomical body will give a structured foundation in which students will feel confident in sequencing safe and effective Yin practices for themselves and others. Once the foundation is built then the deeper layers of the practice can be taught through work on the subtle bodies which will be investigated through breathwork and meditation.

But on the third day if felt as if a dam broke - the Reiki came on strong. Ever since, the increasing energy has been nothing short of transformative. ALL of my health problems are gone, and more importantly so are my negative attachments to those problems. My worries have been replaced with such lightness and a real sense of playfulness. Fun is back." Sara D "My self-treatment has been consistent and is still a big part of my morning routine. I feel so blessed to be able to give myself this gift every morning after meditation."

I took her class in January and, in the following 3 months, I worked more than I had ever worked during any tax season, but I was also the least stressed I had ever been. I never dreamed Reiki would help me that much and now, after taking her Level 2 class as well, I am amazed at all the wonderful new things I have discovered about myself and the world around me. I am so very grateful to Eleonore for starting me on this wondrous journey! Her wisdom and radiant energy has truly been a blessing in my life!" Michelle Kemmer “Dear Ms. Koury, First I wanted to thank you for the beautiful workshop session. I slept from 5:30pm to 8:30am after the workshop. I am in awe of the emotional wholeness I have been feeling, still, even now, ten days after the class. And so, thank you for that as well.” Maryam Torabian “Reiki & Yoga is a fun workshop.
