Workshops and Events

Learning to take an active role in your own growth and healing.

These workshops and events grow from the same belief that runs through everything at Soma Naperville: that personal healing has a radius, and that the practices we build into our own lives ripple outward to the people around us.
Each offering is an invitation to deepen your relationship with your body, your nervous system, and the simple, sustainable practices that bring us home to ourselves.Some are one-time. Some are recurring. All are taught with care, in small groups, by someone who has walked the path herself.

Current Offerings

Reiki I Attunement
and Certification

June 20, 2026: 9am to 1pm
A half-day class at Soma Naperville - $200

Reiki is the practice of working with the living energy of the body - supporting it, moving it, helping it flow where it is stuck. The tool is your hands. The teacher is your own body, learning to listen.This class is different from how some Reiki classes are taught. I trained in the Usui lineage and I am a Reiki Master in that tradition. What I came to believe through that training is that the attunement does not belong to the teacher. It belongs to you. So in this class, I will guide you through your own self-attunement, the same way Usui himself was attuned, on a mountain, by no one. The power was always yours. I am here to help you remember.In this class you will:
• Learn what Reiki is, including the science of touch and the nervous system
• Receive Reiki from me, individually, before you attune
• Self-attune in a guided sequence held in a quiet, intentional container
• Practice Reiki on yourself and on another person before you leave
• Walk out a certified Reiki I practitioner, with a practice that is yours for lifeClass size has a minimum of 4 participants and is limited to 6. Includes certification of completion in the Usui lineage and a digital reference for your daily practice.Next class: June 20, 2026
Location: 475 River Bend Rd #104
Investment: $200

Pebble in a Pond Workshop

July 2026: Specifics TBD
A 2-hour class at Soma Naperville - $100

The premise is simple: personal healing has a radius. The work you do on yourself does not stay with you — it ripples outward to the people you live with, work with, parent, partner, and pass on the street.This workshop is an introduction to that idea, and to the practices that make it true. We’ll spend 2 hours together exploring how the nervous system actually works, how it influences the people around us, and a few simple, sustainable practices for coming home to your own body - practices you can begin using the same day.This is not a workshop about fixing yourself. It is a workshop about learning to listen.In this workshop you will:
• Learn how your nervous system communicates with the world, and the world with it
• Practice noticing - the foundational skill underneath every other practice
• Try a guided breath and body sequence designed for people with no prior experienceOpen to everyone. No prior experience needed. Great for parents with anxious children, educators, and anyone who feels like they've hit a plateau in life.Coming this summer.
