Bio

Jeanne Sevapreet Kaur Shanin

I'm a Teaching Reiki Master whose primary focus is on Integrative Reiki as a complete method of energy healing for mind-body-spirit health and wellness. I specialize in helping people in stressful life circumstances to balance and harmonize their energy and open to compassion, gratitude, and an open heart.

I fell in love with Kundalini Yoga from the first class I took, looking for a physical practice rooted in a spiritual technology. I now teach Kundalini Yoga as taught by Yogi Bhajan and find that it helps my clients manage stress, increase health and vitality, support healing and promote joyfulness and increased awareness. I teach at Golden Temple Yoga in Katonah, NY, Move2Wellness in Ridgefield, CT, and at Northern Westchester Hospital in Mt. Kisco, NY.

I've practiced  Reiki since 1988 when I was initiated by the first non-Asian to become a Reiki Master in this Japanese healing system. I became a Certified Reiki Master/Teacher in 2004 and a certified Karuna Reiki® Master in 2007. I studied chakra balancing, aromatherapy, shamanic work and crystal and gemstone healing. Prior to being introduced to Kundalini Yoga as taught by Yogi Bhajan, I studied and practiced Siddha Yoga for 20 years.I completed a one year professional training in Integrating Spirituality, Psychotherapy and Healing in 2008.

I fell in love with the practice of Kundalini Yoga and Meditation from the first class I ever took. In 2009 I become a Certified Kundalini Yoga Teacher, having studied with the esteemed teachers, Sat Jivan Kaur and Sat Jivan Singh, senior teachers in the Kundalini Yoga Tradition, as taught by Yogi Bhajan. They have been living, breathing and serving the teachings of Kundalini Yoga since Yogi Bhajan himself asked them to start teaching in New York City in 1971.   

I teach Reiki and use energetic healing to help individuals experience deep relaxation, increased joy, energy and vitality, improved health and emotional balance. I coach people to connect with and express their spiritual essence and teach meditation for reduction of stress and anxiety. I offer private and absentee healing, workshops, Reiki certifications, spiritual growth counseling, and Reiki share groups.

I have used Reiki and Healing Touch bedside for clients at Northern Westchester Hospital, Mt. Kisco, NY and at Maitri Center, a Yonkers, NY State licensed adult day health care program for individuals living with HIV/AIDS.  I've facilitated Reiki Circles at Sunburst Oasis, Mt. Kisco, Pymander, Norwalk CT, and in South Salem, NY. A member of the International Association of Reiki Professionals and the Westchester Holistic Practitioners Network, I founded of the Touch of Reiki, a tranquil South Salem NY Reiki studio and retreat.

I believe each of us possess inner wisdom and self awareness. It just needs to be awakened.  So in addition to individual consultations, my workshops offer simple yet profound teachings that create a solid foundation for self practice and personal development.
