Please join us in welcoming Harmoney who will be taking over for Adriana with Reiki and her own healing modalities!

A Healing Way with Harmoney Dawn

Harmoney Dawn was trained in Reiki in 1998. Reiki—meaning Universal/Higher Power life force energy—is a simple, natural, and safe method of healing and self-improvement that benefits all. It is known for its beneficial results and also works well in conjunction with other medical or therapeutic techniques.

Harmoney is also trained in Craniosacral Therapy (CST), Purna Yoga and Matrix Energetics (ME). CST uses a series of gentle techniques to remove blocks and restore subtle movement in the central nervous system. Purna—meaning complete—Yoga focuses on alignment safety with insights into nutrition and applied philosophy. Finally, Matrix Energetics, looking at the world we live and breathe in and reaching out toward new possibilities and a consciousness shift. Imagine ME like a lattice of information; we learn to reach into the lattice and change the information, resulting in healing on many levels.

In these sessions, Harmoney weaves these four uniquely different yet similar healing modalities into A Healing Way.

If you’re interested in booking a session with Harmoney, please text her at
(425) 524-8507
