      <image:title>My Philosophy - A little about me…</image:title>
      <image:caption>Hi, I’m Jenn—founder of Wholistic Heart Studio. I live in Westport, Massachusetts, with my husband and our two fur-kids. When I’m not in the studio, you’ll find me outside—gardening, walking with my pups, or simply soaking in the beauty of the natural world around me. My Reiki Journey My path with Reiki began at a time when I needed healing most. I was navigating a period of overwhelm and seeking something deeper than traditional self-care. My first Reiki session felt like coming home to myself—a gentle awakening of energy, emotion, and awareness. That experience changed everything. I felt a profound sense of calm, clarity, and connection that I hadn’t realized I was missing. It inspired me to continue learning and eventually to become a certified Reiki practitioner and teacher. Over the years, Reiki has taught me the art of presence—the ability to hold space with compassion and trust in the body’s innate wisdom. Each session is an invitation to align, to release, and to remember your own capacity for healing. Today, I’m honored to share this practice with others—to offer the same sense of peace and renewal that once helped me rediscover my own light. Fun fact: I retreat to an off-grid cabin tucked high on a remote mountain in New Hampshire. It’s my sacred space for rest and reflection—where the woods, the wind, and the endless sky remind me to slow down and listen. I find peace in the rhythm of nature and endless inspiration in her daily miracles: the quiet of dawn, the blaze of sunset, and the grounding energy of the earth beneath my feet. My deep connection to Mother Earth continually renews my sense of wonder, gratitude, and purpose. It’s this same reverence for nature’s wisdom that I bring into every healing session—helping others reconnect to their own inner landscape of balance and peace.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Testimonials - "Jenn ensured that my first reiki experience was a fantastic one.  She started with talking me through everything that was going to take place once she started, and what to expect, so that I would be comfortable throughout. I was so comfortable I think I slept through half of my session! I left feeling rejuvenated and relaxed. Definitely plan to make this a bi-monthly treat for myself and my husband."</image:title>

      <image:title>Testimonials - "I experienced Reiki for the first time today. Jenn let me know what to expect both during and after receiving Reiki. I was pleased that I was able to relax during the session, but the surprise really came later in the day. I just got over a cold and had a lingering cough. I have coughed less tonight! Not only that, but I found myself being more and more relaxed as the day went on. No problem falling asleep for me tonight! My first time with Reiki was a very positive one and Jenn was great!"</image:title>
