This month's Reiki share at Blue Pearl Yoga in Batavia will be held via a Zoom meeting. This will be different from Reiki shares that we have in person.
Participants will need to be there at 12:30 p.m. and are asked to stay for the full time (1:30-ish).
There will be a short talk and then the actual share will start at approximately 12:45 p.m. This will give everyone a chance to enter and a little time in case anyone is having an issue getting on.

Here's the Zoom link. The meeting password is Reiki. You will then go into a waiting room, and I will let you in the meeting once I see that you are there. Please feel free to ca
