      <image:caption>Little Oreo on Monday, 12/30. He was born on Sunday, 12/29, but I was too apprehensive to be taking pictures as I wasn't sure he'd live. He was just 1lb and 13oz! He is now a whooping 2lbs and 4oz :) I weigh him every morning to see how big of a bottle of milk he should have.</image:caption>

      <image:title>About - May the light shine brightly in you today and always!</image:title>
      <image:caption>It is easy to become distracted, rushed, irritated… It is easy to forget to live consciously, with kindness and mindfulness. We catch glimpses of our own greatness when things go just right, and we plunge back into hurriedness of our day-to-day when they don’t. We seem too busy to slow down and just enjoy the moment. I would like to invite you to do just that though… Slow down! There will always be something else that needs to be done, but there is no time like the present to take a nice deep breath. Notice how it feels… Did the air feel cool entering your nostrils? Did your ribcage expand? How are you feeling? Right now? Right this instant? I believe that we all have a great potential. We all have a spark of light inside of us. A lot of the time we don’t want to acknowledge it, bring it to the forefront of our attention. Acknowledging that light brings change into our lives. The shift might be subtle or abrupt, but we can no longer deny our light and the need to bring it out into the world. Yet the world needs it now perhaps more than ever. So let your light shine! Let it grow and merge with others so that the whole world is one shining sphere! Wouldn’t that be fun? Find my training here. More of my story here.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Story</image:title>
      <image:caption>It’s hard to say when my journey to healing started. I remember watching healers on TV back in Minsk as a child and being fascinated with the idea that you can heal people through your hands. I have taken a detour from the healing path to start a family and assimilate here in the States. My transformational journey started after a friend dragged me to a yoga class at work. All the ideas of non-competitiveness were so foreign to me, I didn’t think I’ll stick with yoga for long. Yet, I kept signing up for session after session, intuitively knowing that the classes will lead me back to who I truly am. After doing a bit of energy sensing in a yoga class, I remembered the healers from my childhood and wanted to learn more. That lead to discovering Reiki. I have been fortunate to study with different Reiki Masters during my training. This introduced me to different teaching styles and also different approaches to practicing Reiki. My introduction to Reiki was with Reiki Master Diane Porter in 2005. I have received my Reiki 1 attunement from her and learned the basics of a Reiki treatment. Wanting to practice Reiki not only on myself but on others, I found a Reiki clinic in Salem, MA. Sessions at the clinic are donation based and many Reiki practitioners volunteer their time there. You may call (978) 777-5732 if you would like an appointment. I have helped out at the clinic for a little over a year once a week. It was a very rewarding experience to work with people who are chronically ill and genuinely cherish their weekly Reiki time. I have waited a year after my first attunement to continue my education. An opportunity presented itself to study Reiki 2 atKripalu Center for Yoga &amp; Health. Reiki Master Libby Barnett, MSW was teaching there at the time. She is a wonderful woman full of compassion. She has introduced me to the idea that Reiki can be used for an emotional healing of ourselves and others. My Reiki Master Training has been with Reiki Master Joanna Scaparotti. It has been a very intense process and I have learned so much during my time with her. Joanna is such an inspiration of what a spiritual teacher could be. She truly is living what she teaches. Joanna taught me how to use Reiki for self-growth, to cultivate awareness, and how to be of help to others. All the while, I have been practicing yoga, whether at home or at a studio. And, visiting Kripalu every so often has always re-inspired me to continue to learn, stay true to myself, and enjoy life. I have completed my yoga teacher training in Yoga of Energy Flow with Daniel Orlansky and Liz Owen in June of 2010. I am now a registered yoga teacher at 200 hour level. Yoga of Energy Flow is an eclectic collection of Kundalini yoga, Meridian yoga and Kali Ray TriYoga.</image:caption>
