Next on our line-up for Sunday, readings with Lynette Peterson. A reading often involves seeking guidance or insight into the future or present. Historically, seers are individuals who could see beyond the ordinary, often interpreted as a spiritual ability. In modern times, the concept of a seer can be linked to tarot readers, astrologers, or others who offer insights into various aspects of life.

As a Pastoral Counselor, Lynette is also a mental health professional who integrates spiritual and religious resources with psychological methods to help clients. She addresses life challenges and emotional or spiritual well-being by blending theological training with clinical expertise, focusing on the connection between a person’s faith and their mental/emotional health.

Rev. Lynette Peterson is an ordained Universalist Reverend who can refrence many faiths due to her expanding studies of religion. Therefore making her uniquely equipped to provide holistic care that respects a client’s beliefs and values.

While “seer” can simply mean someone with foresight, a tarot-reading seer combines this gift with the cards as a tool for guidance. Lynette’s readings see beyond the ordinary and are designed for self-discovery. She offers insights into various aspects of life.

As a Reiki Master/Teacher her practice incorporates Reiki as a tool for Healing with energy and light.

Before Covid Lynette held community sound healing circles which incorporates the sound and vibration of each participants voice. As the group sits in a circle they begin by humming and expand into toning. The vibrations created pe*****te the person receiving inspiring mental clarity, peace and healing. This practice has inspired spontaneous healing of serious medical issues.

Reach out to secure your time slot!

Get to know Sara, our Licensed Massage Therapist and cohost! Come chat and find out why she's a must-know.

A few words from Sara:
As a Licensed Massage Therapist with over two decades of experience, I am dedicated to the art of natural facial rejuvenation. My journey began with a curiosity about holistic healing, which evolved into a passion for combining therapeutic massage with aesthetic skincare.

My holistic philosophy, which draws from ancient healing traditions, ensures every session is a unique ritual designed to promote your natural radiance. Specializing in Facial Sculpting and Lifting techniques while using Ilike Organics, my approach combines deep tissue manipulation, lymphatic drainage, and acupressure to lift and tone facial muscles. The result is a naturally sculpted and radiant complexion that addresses tension and fluid retention without invasive procedures.

Ready to discover your natural youthful glow? Visit or chat with me at our open house to learn more about my services and book your facial rejuvenation session!
