6/20/2026 update: I never received my refund, 1.5 years later. Do not pay via zelle or you will not get your money back
6/5/2025 post: I walked in one day for a tarot reading and walked out prepaying for 4 Reiki sessions with Lauren. She postponed our first session three times at the last minute. (No apology, they were all "emergencies", she said the universe is probably testing me).
Our first session was a YouTube Naturescape, and she went through the seven singing bowls. The second session was a 30 minute YouTube guided meditation, and no singing bowls. After that 2nd session, Lauren told me that I needed to purchase a $4258 crystal that I could then return later for a refund but that I needed to purchase it to continue with the sessions. I declined, I just wanted the 4 sessions I had prepaid for. She told me that she could not finish our sessions unless I purchased that crystal.
This was on Feb 20, 2025. Today it is June 5, 2025, and every week she promises me a refund next week and I still have not received it. Please see attached text message screenshots.
I honestly felt really disrespected and pressured by the whole experience, and I wouldn't recommend her as a reiki practitioner. In hindsight, I feel that I was totally scammed. read more
