The goal at Reiki Learning Center is to promote healing on all levels- Spiritual, Mental, Emotional, and Physical. Reiki is a tremendously supportive therapeutic technique, facilitating deep relaxation which reduces the resistance to healing. Discussion before and after Reiki allows the transition into healing to solidify, often accompanied by breathwork to help with the home meditative process.

Reiki, developed in Japan in the early 1900s, increases the vibrational frequency of the body which can free one's energy of the heaviness and negativity that may keep one feeling "stuck." Reiki sessions are offered for 60-90 minutes. More or less time is your option also.

Reiki classes are offered, as our ability self healing leads to the most powerful transformation possible. This energy work leads to a deep meditative process, without the draining of one's own energy as can happen in other healing arts. Classes are offered with Barbara for Reiki I, II, Master, and Master Teacher, helping students become healers at their own pace. Former students of Reiki can repeat classes or receive booster attunements.

Other Healing Arts activities are offered as well, including Chakra Balancing Class, a 4-part series to explore and understand the meaning of dysfunctions of imbalanced chakras. Also, Meditation With Compassion: a series of meditation classes that includes a lot of discussion, full of eastern philosophy, Buddhist meditation methods, pranayama, and practice time. Meditation is such a vital part of our spiritual self-development process, that your commitment to "sitting" can create immediate shifts in your awareness.

Barbara also paints and has her artwork hanging at classes and featured on her website. She has drawn all her life, but began painting in 1997. Creative pursuits make us human. She is always happy to discuss what others are doing artistically.

Barbara Lee always knew she could heal herself since childhood. No one gave her instruction, but if she had a stomach ache or a headache, she knew instinctively how to quiet down, focus, and release the illusion of pain.

Then, like everyone else, she learned that being sick was helpful... days off from school, more attention, and so on. So life went on. Yet some part of her always held onto the need and ability to heal.

Becoming analytical in an effort to find answers, she received her bachelors in Chemistry, graduating cum laude. Then, wanting a field where she helped people heal in some way, she went to graduate school to receive her doctorate in Optometry, graduating 'With Distinction.' She soon became a very busy and popular doctor due to her patience, warmth, and competence. Although satisfying, she still needed to find something to create real healing, in herself and those around her.

Her path began to change in 1996 when she discovered energy work, alternative healing, the mind-body connection, and other healing elements that would permanently alter her life. She could not learn fast enough, and soon attend classes after work regularly. She began practicing various forms of meditation. She digested book after book, applying new philosophies and techniques to her life, to see if they would work.

After attending energy classes in the late '90s, a friend began teaching her about Reiki. This method felt like a coming home. She studied, attended classes, received certification, but it was ultimately the time spent in self-healing that gave her the best understanding of the Reiki process.

She has been through Reiki I & II twice, and Reiki Master/Teacher level 4 times, with 3 certificates. Her practice has been flavored by so many teachers.

She also has attended classes or workshops by:

Dr. Wayne Dyer; Gary Renard; Marianne Williamson; James Van Praagh; Doreen Virtue; Yogi E- Eric Walrabenstein; Sonia Choquette; Laurelle Gaia and Michael Baird; Sunny Johnston; Neal Donald Walsch; Jai Uttal; Marsha Craven; Chrisiane Northrup, MD; Brian Weiss, MD; and continued certification through National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine.

When teaching classes, her ability accept others as the perfect beings they are and to take her role as a simple assistant in the process of learning and healing has reinforced a deep humility that guides her through this path.

I have no intention of trying to persuade anyone to follow one religious path over another. Following an individual's spiritual path has always made so much more sense. However, I do use spiritual teachings that I find from various sources, and use these often in my own life and in my classes. I have a Christian background, I align myself with various Buddhist philosophies, teachings, and meditation methods, and I enjoy devotional kirtan typically associated with Hinduism. I've attended the Self-Realization Fellowship, practice yoga, have begun reading A Course In Miracles, and believe in respecting Mother Earth and all the energies that surround us. I continue to evolve, but I do so love this evolutionary process.

By appointment only, but most appointments are on week nights or weekends. Time is split between North Phoenix and Flagstaff so send an email and we'll find a time that works for both of us.

Chakra work has been so rewarding in my Reiki practice. I understand my clients so much better once I've had a chance to experience their chakra energy.

My Chakra Balancing Series helps the students learn how to detect balance or imbalance within their flow of subtle energy. Once awareness is present, the student learns wonderful tools to help stimulate movement of energy or to quiet down over-compensating chakras. Everything may be used, from simple movement techniques, to crystals, to breathwork, to meditation.

Experiencing movement of energy in the chakras leads to a rapid appreciation of crystals and other healing stones which facilitate energy movement and balance. Barbara is always willing to instruct students on the use of crystals and stones, assisting the process of self-exploration.

Painting is yet another passion of Barbara's, which is why her healing rooms typically have some of her original artwork hanging on the walls. After numerous requests, she is considering making her pieces of art available to students and other interested parties... for now, you can view these lovely pieces when attending a class or a session.

Hypnotherapy is a tool that allows the subconscious to safely shift, to promote a healthier mental or emotional pattern, to explore past lives.

I have been especially happy with the combination of Reiki and hypnotherapy together, as these two tools complement each other so gracefully.

Using both in the same session creates a powerful growth in spiritual and mental awareness and development. A combined session lasts nearly two hours.
