The minute you step foot, you can feel it running through your body, and you can honestly tell it is a safe place. After doing some exploring in Nyack, something told us to make a left and walk down the road, which is where we found The Open Spirit. We had the pleasure of meeting Jackie, who had such a warm and fun spirit! She greeted us with open arms, engaged in a conversation, and go to know who we were. We've been back numerous times since, and every time Jackie remembers who we are. In fact, the second time we ever went back, was to check out Nyack's street fair. We went to visit Jackie's booth and the minute we stepped foot she told everyone inside that we were the guys from NYC she couldn't stop talking about. It was such a humbling and grateful experience. Every time we visit the shop we meet someone new. We were there about 2 weekends ago, and we met Lisa. Again, another great soul to come across! There are so many wonderful things in this shop that speaks to you. I have purchased a handful of items that are now placed throughout my home. Walking by them I can feel the positive and loving energy from The Open Spirit.

I very rarely write reviews but wanted to ensure everyone considering Deborah has the opportunity…read moreto have a session with her. I did a Tao Hands/Distance Reiki session. I've done Reiki a couple of times before but never felt a huge difference. With Deborah, it was different. During the session, Deborah asked questions to understand my needs and concerns. She was positive and warm, and made me feel very comfortable. She also introduced me to flower essences, which I hadn't heard of prior. During the healing session, I yawned a lot (like I was releasing a lot of repressed energy!). Afterwards, I felt relaxed - it was clear that the session truly worked although it wasn't done in person, which I was a little nervous about at first. Deborah also quickly followed up after our session with additional information and promptly responded to a follow up question I had about flower essences. It's been four days since our session, and my chronic neck pain that I've had for 10 weeks is significantly better - in a way my chiropractor couldn't help. I'm really glad I made the investment in my healing session with Deborah and now understand why she has so many positive, genuine reviews (she's not compensating us or giving us discounts to write these, like some businesses do!). I'm very grateful to have found Deborah - she is truly gifted.

Tara's readings are a truly remarkable experience…read more I was at a place where I was dealing with a lot of family and relational issues, and needed some clarity around how to heal and deal with these issues. I reached out to Tara to see if she had any insight, and was absolutely blown away by her gifts and abilities. Without giving her too much information, Tara was able to pick up on family members that I didn't mention, and certain things in my relationships that I didn't talk to her directly about. Tara was able to see and feel what I was struggling with on a spiritual and physical level all while giving me practical advice to help me overcome these issues. Tara was so spot on with everything in her reading, it felt like she knew me for years. She understood everything that was going on with me, and by using her abilities, helped me in ways that no one was else could. Tara's readings are a 10/10.

If you do try this place go with Veronica. Unfortunately, you need to deal with Heather as the owner. She makes various mistakes, i.e. later tells you that you owe more money after the massage. I had no issue paying extra even though it was their error, I simply pointed out that I would appreciate being told next time that it is more expensive. Heather's response is "What were you thinking of course it's more.." They also got the time of my massage wrong and blamed me for it, canceled 15 minutes before the massage, even though I had in writing the actual time. It's not a good business to deal with if you're looking for a good and relaxing experience. I've had good experiences at other places in the area.

Wow, where to begin! I discovered Andrea and the Reiki…read morepractice during my own search for a more holistic way to heal. I have Lupus SLE and was going through months of non-stop flaring and had a gut feeling (intuition) that something inside me was unbalanced, thus causing my stress and anxiety to be in a state that I could just not tame. After doing some research and reading reviews on several practitioners, I was drawn to Andrea due to her traditional practice and scheduled a session with her that same week. I didn't know what to expect and so we started our session with her explaining what Reiki is and how it can help so many ailments. I also gave her some background on why I was seeking help. As an empath, I've always had difficulty controlling my emotions, especially when put in a negative situation and I explained this to Andrea who just understood exactly what I meant and was feeling. My session went SO well and after I opened my eyes I felt more like myself again, more positive, more calm and all of the anxiety felt like it just withered away. I was very intrigued by this practice and pursued Reiki training with Andrea shortly after my session. This was where I felt a true shift in my inner energy and mindset overall. I'm in the process of completing the first level, but have found that I've been so dedicated and committed to healing myself with Reiki on a daily basis, several times a day. As someone who works in a high-stress environment, Reiki has certainly changed my vibe at work and with my coworkers... I don't feel so drained after work, like someone stole my energy, and I feel more alive. In just the short time I've practiced Reiki, I've been able to make an impact with people I interact with daily... it truly has been such a blessing and I know this will be a part of my life and my being for years to come. If you are on the fence, jump over it into one of Andrea's sessions. You will not regret it!
