I look forward to helping more individuals that come to the event and would recommend it as there is almost one person for every modality at these events. The energy is always good and holds space for novices to ancients. Definitely worth a visit just to listen to the free sessionsthey have going on all day at this event. Also try the tamales the tamale man sells outside, also good nutrition for your soul. Peace, and looking forward to seeing you there. Look for Leyla- would love to connect with you.

HeartSpace OC is a hidden gem in Southern Orange County. I've been attending their holistic faires…read morealmost once a month since they were located in Irvine. Now, they are conveniently situated in Laguna Woods, close to the 5 Freeway. I enjoy attending their monthly faires because they offer a great opportunity to meet like-minded people. They also provide free lectures throughout the event, held every 30 minutes, and you can get a "taste" of the services various holistic practitioners offer, often at a lower rate than a private session. The advantage of a private session is the opportunity to work one-on-one with the practitioner in a private room, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the experience. One of my favorite private sessions is with Jimena, who is not only gifted and passionate about Reiki, Sound Therapy, and Energy Healing, but also someone from whom I have greatly benefited. She helped me clear emotional blockages I had been carrying over the past few years. I continue to attend HeartSpace OC's monthly holistic faires and see Jimena for regular "tune-ups." I highly recommend stopping by to experience it for yourself.

The events are also a really fun way to gather with like minded yogis and chat about life. The spring equinox circle and book club have been a lot of fun. Beautiful space. Loving Community.

Every time I have a healing with Debi it feels like I exit into a whole new world. The first time I…read morevisited her was because I hoped she could help me with what felt like I wall that I had up, keeping me from connecting deeply with other people. The wall dissolved in that one session. I loved it so much that I signed up for mentoring with her. Thanks to that I've become a skilled healer myself, but I still go to her for tuneups and support "leveling up" when I want to heighten my intuition and develop my skills as a healer even more. I have an incredible experience every single time. Debi is very generous with her time, so give yourself plenty of time for your session. You won't regret it. If you want to work with a life-changing healer look no further. Debi's your gal! Oh and she also has an incredible selection of stones at the best prices I've found in Southern California!

The workshops and classes always include exercises and practices that help me find peace, clarity, and excitement for life. Joining her community for the healing days are very special! Kathy has a way of always disarming and releasing the walls we put up in order to really heal in many ways with a team that prioritizes all the right things and makes for a wonderful and peaceful experience every time. Having been coming to her meditation classes weekly for a year now, the healing days are a special touch that I hope more people can experience. Connecting with life on earth is very important and the tree connection pictured was another special moment. If you can make it out to anything involving this beautiful team then do so! You will likely see me at one of the classes so say hi and feel free to ask questions :)

I also attend the workshops at Emerging Om. I love how they have spiritual, mental and physical workshops which covers all the areas for personal growth and healing.

Beginner or not, this is a great space to relive some stress, tap into your inner peace, and meet others that are also interested in self exploration. What a gem in Costa Mesa, providing the public with free meditation classes (donations are always welcome!). Gil and Marilyn are SO welcoming, and somehow manage to remember everyones names. The first time I came in was by myself for the Wednesday night group practice led by Gil. The next time I came in was with my cousin, who had no prior meditation experience at all, and she loved it. I randomly found this place online when I was looking to get back into meditation a few months after I completed a Vipassana course. Although Shambhala is different, the 7:00pm class opens with an introduction and instruction to approaching this style of meditation. Note that the space itself is *behind* the Coco's. If you're facing the restaurant, to left you'll find a hall that you pass through. Make a turn towards the salon and you'll find the Meditation Center. The space is warm and clean, be sure to check in with Marilyn or Sepi at the front desk to say that you're new. You take off your shoes (you might want to wear socks) and enter the meditation hall closed off by silkscreen doors. No need to bring pillows or a bloc as very comfortable ones are already provided for you. For those who have trouble sitting cross legged or kneeling on the floor, there are three ample rows of chairs behind the floor seating. The temperature is mild--I wore a jean jacket with a t-shirt underneath and was comfortable the whole session. After practicing two sets of walking and sitting meditation, the class sat in a circle and read a chapter from The Lost Art of Good Conversation, by Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche. The discussion that followed provides an excellent connection between how the physical and mental exercise of meditation translates to our everyday lives. You have nothing to lose by dropping in. I hope to provide an updated review after attending one of their Saturday sessions or courses. For a fee, they have really cool contemplative arts seminars. I wanted to sign up for the Ikebana course, the study and practice of flower arranging, but they ran out of space! The best way to keep up with its events is by following its Meetup page.
