Join Anna Smith as she tells her personal story and explains the connection between Reiki and the healing of the physical and emotional body
7:00 pm - 8:30 pm EDT
Zoom Webinar (Virtual Only)
Join Anna Smith as she tells her personal story of healing trauma through holistic modalities, and explains the connection between Reiki and the healing of the physical and emotional body.
Anna has experienced generational trauma, childhood trauma, and domestic violence. She was diagnosed with Complex PTSD and Fibromyalgia. Anna discovered Reiki while searching for a holistic alternative to manage her chronic physical pain. She found that it helped heal so much more than the physical discomfort, reducing stress, allowing her to sleep, and easing the emotional wounds. Reiki had begun to improve every part of her life, and her journey began. She hopes to help others in their own personal healing journey, knowing the peace of mind, spirit, and body.

You Are Not Alone 2025
Trauma is perhaps the most avoided, ignored, belittled, denied, misunderstood, and untreated cause of human suffering. In our fast-paced society, where productivity often takes precedence over personal well-being, the silent echoes of trauma can reverberate through generations, affecting not just individuals but entire communities. Recognizing and addressing trauma is not just a personal journey but a societal imperative, as healing can lead to more compassionate and resilient communities.
In the Fall of 2020, OMA brought together a panel of survivors to meet monthly and discuss their own individual traumas and journeys of healing. For four years, our panel covered a variety of topics and evolved into an amazing therapeutic journey for each person that shared their most intimate and vulnerable parts of themselves with the OMA community hoping to share the message that not only is healing from trauma possible, it is also a profoundly transformative experience.
As we move into this new year, we want to expand the work that has been done under the banner of You Are Not Alone (YANA) by offering trauma-informed trainings, lectures, workshops, and seasonal gatherings. Some of these offerings will come from our panel, but we are also reaching out to others in our community that have something special to offer to the healing discussion.
Healing from trauma is a complex journey, but with the right support and understanding, individuals can find a path to recovery. Trauma affects individuals differently, so the need to offer a wide variety of support is indicated. Our goal is to foster discussions around holistic health, safety, transparency, community, empowerment, choice, and the need for systemic change.
