Join us for this online program led by With Love and Gratitude as we're guided through different methods of healing.

This tapping technique is geared specifically to releasing serotonin, a natural mood stabilizer. WayneRen is a system for healing that is a synergy of methodologies: Tong Ren, acupressure, Reiki, tapping, serotonin release, massage, chakra balancing and Daoist principles. Incorporating the essences of these healing principles, WayneRen utilizes a distance healing practice to optimize the release of blockages.
