Gong hei fat choy! 恭喜发财

Wishing you happiness, good health, peace, and prosperity as we celebrate the Lunar New Year and welcome in the Year of the Fire Horse! 🧧🔥🐎

The Year of the Wood Snake was about shedding and releasing what no longer served you and felt stagnant. Something long-held is ready to give way so you can grow into the next version of yourself.

The Year of the Fire Horse represents freedom, momentum, and the clarifying heat of transformation. The Fire Horse arrives only once every 60 years, which means its energy is accompanied by a level of intensity that requires you to stop holding back on what matters most to you.

If you take action on a dream or decision, take the reins with passion and commitment. You are meant to go far, so be courageous!

In 2006, I had been seeking something, anything, that would help me feel better.

After my first Reiki session, I knew. And asked my Reiki Master to sign me up for his very next class.

I'm not usually that impulsive. I tend to to research things before I make a commitment of my time and energy.

But in that moment, I knew it was the right time to learn Reiki.

The quality of peace, lightness of spirit, and well-being I felt after that first session was amazing and I wanted more of that.

Don't you want more of that too?

My life has gotten immeasurably better since learning to practice Reiki 20 years ago, and so can yours.

I love hearing from my students how their Reiki practice has helped them manage their daily stress levels, make decisions with more clarity, or simply feel better in their bodies.

Wouldn't you like more of that in your life?

If so, then now is the right time to learn to Reiki.

Reiki is a complete system for spiritual healing and self-improvement.

The Reiki Precepts teach you to mindfully identify and reframe unhelpful thoughts.

Reiki meditation practices help you keep your own "battery" charged.

Daily self-healing practice enables you to experience more ease, peace, and wholeness.

Reiki practice connects you to a community who are there to support you.

I love teaching Reiki to people like you and seeing their eyes light up when they feel the connection to this sacred, life-affirming energy.

My next in-person Komyo ReikiDo Shoden (Level I) class is on Saturday, March 28 and Sunday, March 29, 2026 at in Stone Mountain Village.

The doldrums of winter are upon us, and coupled with the ongoing tensions in the U.S. and in other places around the world, many of us are feeling our edges fraying. It's too easy to get stuck in our fleece-wrapped doom-scrolling bubble, feeling increasingly drained as each day passes.

A big part of my work as a Reiki Teacher and spiritual coach has been to offer community care, both in-person and online. Those of you who have been following me since 2009 or so know that I held regular low-cost public Reiki clinics with my students, which is how I got started in community care.

My Patreon is another way I've been doing this work since 2020, enabling me to offer online healing and spiritual support as well as help fund pro bono/sliding scale private Reiki sessions to folks facing financial issues.

My goal is to help YOU feel more resourced, energetically and spiritually, so you are able to take better care of yourself, your loved ones, and community. We're all in this together and everyone deserves to have access to healing and spiritual care.

Community Care Offerings will be a mix of guided practices, including meditations and energy-based healing. They will be pre-recorded and posted twice a month (unless otherwise specified) for all paid Patreon subscribers.

The first Community Care Offering for February drops tomorrow! It's a special guided healing meditation to celebrate Imbolc, an ancient Celtic feast day that marks the midway point between the Winter Solstice and Spring Equinox, and celebrates the return of light and growth.

Patreon subscribers at $2.22/month or higher will have access to these monthly Community Care Offerings as they are made available. For less than a cup of coffee each month, you will have instant access to these offerings and other perks (like discounted Reiki sessions!)

You have control over your own energy boundaries, because you are the container for your energy. Just as you wouldn't let others freely ransack your home, don't let them do the same with your physical, mental, and emotional energies. 🙏💜

I was incredibly fortunate to grow up in the borough of Queens, NY which is the most diverse county in the United States. My life has been blessed by the presence of immigrants and their descendants. They were my neighbors and friends, who welcomed me into their homes and shared their food, music, and cultures with me.

I am experiencing tremendous grief, anger, and concern at the egregious, unconstitutional treatment and detention of undocumented immigrants, green card holders, and citizens by immigration enforcement.

I practice a spiritual healing art that originated in a country where, during WWII, we interred American citizens of Japanese descent in camps out of fear of the "other."

How can I not say something?

On January 30, I urge you not to participate in your usual activities, in whatever way you are able, to send a message that we are tired of our neighbors and friends who are being terrorized by our government.

Avoid shopping at big box, corporate stores. Give your hard-earned money to small and locally-owned businesses in your community instead.

If you still need to work or attend school, donate to a mutual aid organization supporting resistance efforts or community needs. Assemble care kits. Give to your local food bank. Check in on your vulnerable neighbors. Contact your elected officials and representatives.

It's easy to feel overwhelmed and helpless in times like these. Not everyone can or should be in the streets, facing off against these displays of force in our communities. But there are other meaningful ways to be involved or support those who need it right now.

The way to make this a real action and not performative is to keep doing the work in big and little ways in the days and weeks to come.

Shine your light where you can so that others can be warmed by its glow and find their way forward, illuminating their own light as they go.

If any of you have suggestions for mutual aid groups and other orgs doing good work on the ground in our communities, please share in the comments below! 💜✨️

Is one of your goals for 2026 to take better care of yourself? ✨️

If you're probably pretty busy like me, then you don't have a lot of extra time to spare.

Reiki practice makes it easier to feel better.

I can teach you to practice the spiritual healing art of Reiki so you can experience these amazing benefits anytime, anywhere:

🤚 less stress and anxiety naturally
🤚 immune system support
🤚 healing of past issues or trauma
🤚 enjoying deeper peace and well-being
🤚 deeper spiritual growth and awakening

In my classes, I show you how you can easily bring Reiki spiritual healing into your life and tap into the abundant, life-sustaining energy all around us to support your health and well-being.

I practice and teach Komyo ReikiDo, a style of traditional Japanese Reiki. Learning Reiki invites you to be more present and grounded in your energy and emotions so you can live with more gratitude, compassion, and purpose.

I bring 20 years of my own dedicated Reiki practice to you, offering ongoing support, tools, and community to help you practice with confidence.

My next beginner-level Komyo ReikiDo class is the weekend of February 21-22 at in Stone Mountain Village.

You will be practicing Reiki on yourself even before you leave class the first day!

How special it was to spend this weekend teaching Komyo ReikiDo in the shadow of Stone Mountain itself and being cradled for 2 days in a room where the walls are also made of the stabilizing, grouding energy of Stone Mountain granite.

I'm also reminded on this MLK Jr. Weekend of Dr. King's famous "I Have a Dream" speech, where he declared, "Let freedom ring from Stone Mountain of Georgia."

Mountains have long been symbolic of the spiritual journey, awakening, and enlightenment. They are often places of pilgrimage, as Kurama-yama in Japan was for Usui Sensei. Stone Mountain was a sacred ceremonial site for the Cherokee, Creek and Muscogee peoples who lived in the area thousands of years before white settlers arrived.

Stone Mountain granite, according to an article in Smithsonian magazine, " was quarried by the African-American laborers from Shermantown, not only built churches in the area, but also the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C., the east steps of the U.S. Capitol, the dome of the Federal Gold Depository at Fort Knox, and the locks of the Panama Canal, just to name a few." Even some of the curbs on the streets of my neighborhood are Stone Mountain granite.

What does it mean to let freedom ring? Certainly civil rights are central to that discussion. And so are our spiritual practices. The spiritual practice of Reiki is fundamentally about getting free — untethering ourselves from the mental/emotional shackles of anger and worry so we can live with more gratitude, devotion, and compassion.

Reiki practice helps us get free from the diminishing effects of dysregulated vital energies, enabling us to enjoy improved health and well-being. Reiki encourages us to live and act from what my teacher, Hyakuten Inamoto, calls "the world of oneness" rather than the duality and division that characterize far too much of our human experience.

May we be inspired by those who have sought out and called for freedom to bring that energy and spirit into our hearts, homes, and communities today and every day. 🙏💜

Grateful to be teaching my first Komyo ReikiDo class of the year at ! The classroom walls are made of beautiful Stone Mountain granite, which feel so grounding and nurturing — and remind me of the granite walls of the sweet little zendo in Candler Park where I'd go for zazen (Zen meditation) in the late 1990s.

With so much fear, uncertainty, and upheaval happening in the U.S. and elsewhere, the spiritual practice of Reiki is needed more than ever. 🙏 May the Reiki ancestors watch over, bless, and guide our journey. ✨️⛩️

Dana Young is a certified Komyo ReikiDo teacher/practitioner, certified life coach, workshop leader, and the owner of Dragonfly Reiki, in Atlanta GA. I work primarily with women who are facing the joys and challenges of moving through the years and rites of passage associated with actively building an “adult” life, and later shifting into the more experienced, deepening wisdom phase of life. Women are under tremendous pressure to get it right, to lean in, to do and be all things to their careers, relationships and families. All the universe asks of you is to be authentically who you are meant to be. And we are not meant to do this without support and guidance.

If you are feeling stuck, out of balance, struggling with your well-being, yearning for a deeper spiritual life, or are seeking help resetting your inner compass, I am here to help you reconnect with your own inner bright light through my unique offerings of traditional Japanese Reiki healing, energy medicine, spiritually-based coaching, and intuitive guidance.

As a healer and teacher, my goal for your journey is for the well-being, peace, and wholeness you seek to begin to shine through and illuminate your life.
