Reiki for Violence Intervention at Build, Inc.

BUILD, Inc. is a nationally respected gang intervention, violence prevention, and youth development organization based on Chicago’s West Side. Friday we were able to offer staff reiki, and have been invited to community-facing events on their calendar this summer. We are happy to make this connection and look forward to helping this community achieve greater peace through healing.

Favorite post-reiki comment from the event,

“I’m normally a spaz, and now I’m so relaxed…
I feel like I’ll be using my indoor voice for the rest of the day.”

As a brand-new volunteer, Jana did a great job at her first Reiki Brigade event. She was confident, learned a lot, and received wonderful feedback from the folks she worked with. Welcome aboard, Jana!


Excited to work more with this group—and this woman—going forward!
