Reiki Training and Attunement is a beautiful, self-empowering healing practice that can be harnessed and practiced by everyone.  Reiki promotes deep relaxation, assists in the body's natural healing processes, and develops emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being. 

In this training, you will learn the history of Reiki, be attuned to the Reiki energy, and learn hand positions for self-treatment and for treating others.  During the training, you will practice hands-on with your classmates.  You will also receive a comprehensive manual and ongoing support.

Angela Cays has been working towards transforming suffering and empowering others for decades as a high school math teacher and tutor; licensed professional counselor (LPC; and as a yoga instructor since the fall of 2006. She guides her students to reveal light and shadow, to become more fully embodied and aware of all layers of our being (koshas); to awaken intuition, life force energy (prana), and touch moments of deep peace as well as great expansion.   
Her continued education as a counselor and yoga instructor led her deeper into the subtle body through learning modules in her advanced yoga teacher training with Sheryl and Neil Edsall at Naturally Yoga in Glen Rock, NJ and trainings at Kripalu Center for Yoga and Health in Lenox, MA on Psychotherapy and Spirituality, as well as Psychology of the Chakras, Mind Body Integration, and Creating on Purpose with Anodea Judith.  Having a spark of curiosity about Reiki when she first started taking yoga classes, it was about 20 years later, as a continuation of studying and working with the subtle body, she received her Level I, Level II and Reiki Master attunements from her beloved teacher, Sheryl Edsall, along with the radiant Eileen Alexander.  

Angela benefits deeply from practicing Reiki for self-care in addition to sharing this healing modality with others.  Through many years of studying and teaching yoga, and receiving the Reiki attunements, she continues to develop a more heightened awareness of subtle body energy. She feels honored to hold a sacred space for healing and growth through the universal energy of Reiki, as well as her group yoga classes, workshops and kirtans, private yoga, and EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) Tapping sessions.

EFT Emotional Freedom Technique (aka Tapping) Workshop, plus upcoming Kirtan, and Reiki Level I Training


Sunday, November 24th, 1:30-3:30pm
Highland Yoga, Kinnelon, NJ

www.highlandyoga.com


Early registration by Nov. 17th:  $30


Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), also known as Tapping, is a practice that involves tapping on the endpoints of energy meridians on your body which awakens your relaxation response, reducing feelings of stress, and bringing a calm, grounded, yet expansive feeling.  




We can use this technique to address physical pain, stuck emotions, ingrained thought patterns that no longer serve us, and challenging life experiences (past, present, or future).  While tapping on the points, we speak our feelings, thoughts and experiences, telling the truth of it all, and as the physical and energy body processes these feelings within the realm of relaxation and expansion, we organically move to positive thoughts and feelings and speak those to affirm them into our being. 

This practice can support healing from illness and disease as well as open you to clarity and intuition. Bringing the body out of stress and into the relaxation response allows our immune system to function optimally and our mind to be clear to find solutions to challenges or pathways to our peace and joy in life. 

Come out to learn (or review) the practice of EFT Emotional Freedom Technique (Tapping), tap along with some given scripts addressing our universal experiences of stress and struggle, as well as impromptu tapping based on your own challenges.  You will leave the workshop feeling great from all the tapping we do together and with the confidence and ability to tap on your own stressors as they arise in your life.

In Relationship with the Divine, the Self, & Each Other: A Kirtan with Angela Cays...


...plus the musical magic of Param Joe Rosolen and Laura Wootton 

Sunday, September 29, 1:30-3:30pm
Highland Yoga, Kinnelon, NJ
Investment: $30 pre-registration by September 22, $40 thereafter



Come out for an afternoon of chanting mantra,
bathing in the vibration of sacred sound and the shared energy of our amazing community,
realizing our relationship with the Divine, the Self, and the Other.




"The privilege of a lifetime is being who you are." — Joseph Campbell

When we profoundly connect to the expansive light, energy, and beauty of nature and spirit, we begin to touch the truth of our deepest and highest self, allowing us to express our gifts, through our challenges, to contribute in this lifetime.  As we more fully recognize this expansive light, energy, and spirit all around us and within us, we can realize it is within everyone.  With some it’s easier to see than with others, but if we choose to see that divine light and energy in every being including ourselves, we suffer less and love more.  Can we choose to live through the light as we understand both the light and shadow of the Divine, the Self, and the Other?

“I wish I could show you when you are lonely or in darkness the astonishing light of your own being.” — Hafiz

Angela will weave together the chanting of sacred mantras, readings to highlight the dharma, and periods of meditative silence to create an afternoon of refuge, healing, and inspiration.

Moving Towards Wholeness: A Kirtan with Angela Cays...

...along with Param Joe Rosolen on percussion


Friday, May 31, 6:30-8:30pm
Naturally Yoga, Glen Rock, NJ
Investment: $30 

Come out for an afternoon of chanting mantra, bathing in the vibration of sacred sound and the shared energy of our amazing community, 
moving towards wholeness.


“Don’t get lost in your pain, know that one day your pain will become your cure.” - Rumi

When we embrace everything as though it is for our greatest good, digesting and integrating all of Life’s Experiences, we move towards wholeness. When we see that the “good” and the “bad” have all been contributions to our continued evolution, expansion, and elevation; we understand that nothing is wasted, nothing has been a mistake. It’s all here for you, either an experience of the mud which serves as fodder for our growth or moments of love and the beauty of the lotus that rises, nourished by the mud. 

What nourishment, wisdom, motivation is buried in the difficult experiences in our  lives, like a diamond in the rough, waiting to be discovered? And, can we open our eyes and hearts more often to experience the beauty and the miracles that are right in front of us? Right inside of us? And in each other? We’re here to do this together. We need each other to mirror the light and to hold a sacred space to move through the shadow. 

Angela will weave together the chanting of sacred mantras, readings to highlight the dharma, and periods of meditative silence to create an afternoon of refuge, healing, and inspiration. 

“Let the waves of the universe rise and fall as they will.  You have nothing to gain or loose.  You are the ocean.” - Ashtavakara
