I really don't like pettiness... by this doesn't feel petty. Tl;Dr: really unpleasant and rude interaction with the desk. It felt really discriminatory. I was really excited for my class and wasn't able to access or find any parking (very severe asthma as well). I wasn't even able to reschedule for later or tomorrow. They were very rude. I was scheduled for my first class at this studio today. I arrived to the area 15 minutes early and circled the block and could find no parking. I went into alleyways looking for any parking and there was none. There were two fire trucks in front of the building and an ambulance, so parking was blocked off. I am an asthmatic recovering from Covid (I had it a few weeks ago) and need accessible parking. I called twice, texted their "help" line asking to reschedule, then called again to leave a message, during which someone picked up. It was 11:10 ish by now, I assume, like most studios, they have a five minute limit on when you can enter the class. I told them that I had to miss class because I couldn't find anywhere to park but that I'd love to reschedule. I was swiftly cut off and told no. I explained my medical situation and told them about the parking issue. I was met with the "24 hour policy" answer without even so much as a kind tone let alone a "sorry about that". I asked again as I was really confused- I've never had such a stringent interaction with any mediation studio. The same exact sentence was repeated to me and then I was told that other people made it to the class so I should have been able to make it. I was so shocked that I asked if these people also had medical issues as well, and once again I was met with the same sentence. Robotic and honestly, rude. I was really upset at this point. They were so thoughtlessly, blatantly ableist. I literally had booked the class not even an hour earlier. I wish I had gotten the name of the person who answered the phone so I could handle thus more directly, but regardless I don't think I'd even feel comfortable. Meditation is supposed to be for everyone. I was looking forward to my first meditation and sound bath since recovering. I am so disappointed. I'm on my way to the calming spot now, and also I recommend unplug in Santa Monica. I've never been made to feel bad about my health in this way by a meditation studio. I would not give them another cent until they fix their ableist policy. It seems they only respond to positive yelp reviews anyway, so yeah... I guess don't bother.

And it has only been a couple hours since my first session. I came back home after this session to my sickly dog. I saw she had a service for pets on her website. I had texted her after my session: "Just thought I should let you know (and no rush or anything) but [my dog] has been shaking all day today in his back legs and lower back region He's had back problems before and the vet said they can only really act on emergencies just so worried for my baby." She responded, saying she will do his session in a bit. I didn't have to do anything. Just a couple minutes had gone by and his energy clearly shifted. It was unbelievable. I mean, he was immobile all day and just sad. Then all of a sudden, he's eating, walking around faster than he had been in a couple days, excited to go out. I am beyond amazed and so grateful to have had this experience and for my dog as well. I hope everyone and their pets who are going through anything find Soraya and experience her healing work. I feel so much gratitude and I am so glad to see my dog more active.

Whenever I find myself going through the motions in life, biting off more than I can chew, or just simply getting caught up in everyday life and forgetting to take a moment to myself, I book an appointment with Kellie Jean to help me return to me. The comfort of the room sets the tone. Then from the point of sitting and taking to her, to laying on her table, something happens a where you sink in and allow this wonderful energy to flow. As you follow along, you have comforting and empowering realizations that strengthen your chakras. Even as I write I can still feel the gold light that fills me through from core to fingertips. I would not write this if I was not immensely grateful to Kellie Jean for her Energy and Essence that she gives to her work. She Is a ray of light. Thanks Kelli Jean

I reminded her of the actual day & time (Thursday) and was excited for my session. On the actual day, she texted me to cancel and postpone for Sat, which I acknowledged and asked what time would be best. Crickets. I heard nothing back from her. I waited a few days in patience and didn't want to pester her. However it's Tuesday... It wasn't until I texted her reminding her that at the end of the day we are all going through tough times and it's unprofessional for her to not communicate and follow through or honor her word, I finally got a response. It's unfortunate that I didn't get to experience what other clients have raved about on here. However, I believe everything happens for a reason, and lessons are learned to do better. Live by the Golden rule because I'm sure she wouldn't have liked it if the tables were turned. Flaky and unprofessional is my verdict.

Her thoughtfulness shines -- you can tell she puts in a lot of thought and care for each session to go as deep as possible. During her energy healing session, I reached very similar states on consciousness to that of a deep acupuncture or breathwork experience. I call this the "love dimension" and absolutely LOVE visiting this space! With this type of work, set and setting is key. She creates such a loving, safe space for you to fully expand into the experience, as the worries of the outside world melt away. I really enjoyed the story she told during the session: you're walking in nature, you see a tree, you go inside of it and see your parents, then forgiving them with compassion. It activated my imagination, while at the the same time gave me a deep sense of empathy for my parents. I would whole-heartedly recommend Janice for anyone seeking to positively shift energy in their life. It's definitely something you'd want to do regularly to get even deeper effects.

She uses scents, touch, music, temperature, and it is an immersive healing experience for ALL senses. During the reiki certification course, I was still very sick but somehow was in an elevated state of being where I did not feel any negative physical sensations for the two 8-9 hr days of training. I connected with my cohort and felt the course was engaging and extremely well rounded and well paced. I was also able to experience the true healing energy of reiki as a practitioner and recipient. It was magical and I highly recommend this certification course for anyone interested in becoming reiki certified.
