I left that day feeling everything was about to profoundly shift and see her almost weekly. As a highly sensitive being, I tend to get over-stimulated by our exterior world and was seeking inner strength and stability. Bronwyn opened a divine gateway for me to step into my genuine, unified, and present self. She allowed me to dismantle and rewire many unhelpful thoughts and ways of being. Ever since I've been frolicking forward with a genuine zest for life. Pure love and magic!

She offers a self-study Reiki attunement course. Reiki should be attuned in person although it can…read morebe attuned through a LIVE video connection. Symbols are to be kept secret and should never be written down. The top authors who write on Reiki do NOT include symbols in their books. Reiki Masters also name their lineage from Dr. Usui through Hawayo Takata through their teachers. Different schools have formed since Mrs. Takata opened up Reiki to the world in 1982 but attunements must still have a personal connection. To do anything less reflects hands-on healing, not Reiki.

I had a very powerful, heart opening, transformational Hypnotherapy session with Sylvia. She is a…read morebeautifully present, calm and attentive being; I didn't feel rushed or judged when I opened up to her. She listened carefully & deeply with what I presented to her, to what I was saying *behind my words* to connect with what would benefit me most in session. I felt very safe as she then softly held my head in her hands during the experience in a supportive way, which enabled me to let go further into the deeper states of my consciousnesses. She fully honored my journey by really taking her time helping me to visualize the journey and places I wished to explore and open up within myself.. I felt and saw things I never experienced before in Hypnosis which ended with a full blown "cosmic explosion" of information from my higher self beyond expectations. After having this deep emotional and spiritual release, I still feel it, days later now, very open and raw, in tears often - like fresh new cleansing water flowing through my solar plexus/heart area, the calm after the storm.. I feel the aftermath from nothing less than a truly blissful *enlightenment* most only hope to catch a glimpse of.. I still can't put words to it fully, will take time to process, but know I would not of been able to of gone that far with just anyone. Sylvia is a most talented, gifted healer and I can't recommend her enough. The wisdom that surfaced from that one session will serve me well for eternity. If you are truly seeking to break through boundaries in your life, seeking wisdom and truth for your path, become more fully in alignment with your higher self and life's purpose and need a witness/guide to bring you to that place where the answers you seek are awaiting to be explored deep inside yourself, Sylvia is more than skilled at helping you to achieve this. Thank you Sylvia! ~~*~~

I am sure you'll feel renewed like I do every time I leave a massage room. I feel lighter and I don't have a brain fog. Once you build trust with Liz, I highly suggest reiki + massage. She has calming and healing energy

I cannot say enough incredible things about Oran. He is truly exceptional at what he does…read more From the very first facial more than 10 years ago I knew I was in the hands of someone deeply knowledgeable, intuitive, and passionate about skin health. Oran doesn't just "do facials" -- he studies your skin, explains what's happening beneath the surface, and creates a treatment plan that actually works. His expertise in skincare is unmatched, and his advice is always thoughtful, practical, and tailored specifically to you. What makes him even more special is that he cared for my son's acne for several years. Acne can be such a sensitive and frustrating issue, especially for teenagers, and Oran handled it with professionalism, patience, and real results. He helped clear and manage my son's skin while also educating him about how to take care of it long-term. That kind of dedication is rare. And beyond his technical skill, Oran brings something truly unique to his practice. He is an incredibly gifted Reiki healer. There is a calm, grounded, restorative energy in every session. You leave not only with glowing skin but feeling balanced, relaxed, and renewed. Oran is knowledgeable, caring, intuitive, and deeply committed to his clients. If you are looking for transformative skincare and a holistic healing experience, look no further. Urban Temple is a gem, and Oran is the heart of it

First, Sophia took time to talk with me about what I could expect from our session and to hear what I wanted to work on. Her space is very beautiful and inviting with a massage table for the hands-on healing. Under Sophia's confident, gentle touch I relaxed deeply. I left feeling UPLIFTED, lighter in spirit and just plain BETTER than I'd felt since before the pandemic started!

It turns out that "gorilla" was old, heavy, negative energy that Sophia helped me release from my energy field. I am a spiritual seeker and healer myself, but I can't always perceive what it is in and around myself that needs clearing. Sophia's gifts are many. Initially, as you enter the space, you feel (and smell!) the magic and love in the air. As within, so without. Sophia is beautiful on a soul- level and has created beauty all around her physical space. As we sat down and settled in, Sophia listened to me in a way that I don't think I've ever been listened to before. She closed her eyes allowing both my words and energy to be heard and seen. I felt totally safe as I let down my guard and shed some tears. Sophia is full of insight & wisdom and is clearly a natural born intuitive. I felt as if she already knew why I was there. As the healing began, Sophia was all love and light, shining her "flashlight" into all my dark places, flushing them out, and filling them back to pure love. I was so comfy and relaxed. Her hands are magic. Later, as she shared with me what she "saw" and healed, it all resonated so much. She gave me brilliant real world suggestions on how to continue my healing journey. If you ever have a chance to work with Sophia in any capacity, I highly recommend it. She is a bright healing light in a sometimes dark and confusing world. It's clear how working with Sophia on a regular basis would manifest miracles!

I had my first Reiki session ever with Elizabeth and absolutely loved it! Elizabeth is really warm,…read morewelcoming, and shared information with me after my session that deepened my knowledge of self and where I needed inward healing. My session was 90 minutes. Going in, I wasn't sure what to expect, but I did already believe in the healing power of Reiki. Long story short, I have had long term chronic pain in various areas of my body for over a decade. I was interested in whether Reiki could help me release the tension in my body and help me relax. At the start of the session, Elizabeth asked about what brought me in and what I wanted to focus on. I shared the following: - For 4 years, I have had a lot of pain in my right side body, especially along the right side back. It hurts when I stretch. Lifting my right arm would produce a clicking noise. - I have had TMJ for over 11 years. - I had a strange experience a few months prior, where I entered meditative state by chance, during which I was able to release ~80% of the pain in my jaw and upper neck. However, I still dealt with residual pain at night. The pain does return if I'm particularly stressed. - Lastly, I have an overactive mind, and it was difficult every night to shut down and fall asleep. When the session began, I relaxed almost immediately once Elizabeth laid hands on my left side. Usually when I close my eyes and try to relax, my face and body won't stop twitching and tensing for a very long time (hours). It's especially hard for me to relax my brow, right jaw, right temple, and eyes. Thus I was very surprised to feel the tension in my face melt away within minutes, and I was able to enjoy the rest of the session with a clear mind and relaxed face. The most notable sensations I felt were in my belly, my right knee, and back of my feet. At the start of the session, it felt as though space was being created in my belly, right above my navel -- and I felt positively giddy, causing me to smile. Later in the session, Elizabeth had placed her hands on my knee and then moved on to another area of my body. However, I continued to experience the sensation of weight and warmth on my knee for a long time -- same thing with the back of my feet. I initially thought that she placed a heated bean bag on my knee, but I later realized that I was feeling energy. After the session, the pain on my right side body was completely gone. I could lift my arm without pain, without clicks. The day of the session, I was in the most relaxed state of mind that I had experienced in years. If a thought came up, I could let go of it easily. I didn't have thought patterns that came up and stole my attention that day. I slept very well that evening. The following day, I went to yoga like usual -- and I could stretch SO FAR on my right side. Still no pain. I'm definitely returning. Elizabeth is a bright light and a gift!

In an email one year ago she briefly mentioned that her husband has crazy work hours and said it…read morewouldn't be fair to take on new clients. Then I kind of forgot about this. I reached back a year later to fix a session. She didn't mention it again on the phone or explicit stated there is a high chance that she might have to cancel last minute to prepare me. She fixed a date then cancelled the day before and then I fixed another date a month later then she cancelled again the day before. This gave me feelings of being dismissed, not valued, not taken seriously, not considered important. All the things I am trying to get help with from a reiki practioner and life coach. I also had to have my husband take care of my child to do this with her. I also had to take time off work to be there during work hours. These things matter to me too. I didn't think this was a professional thing to do. And more importantly she never said I might have to cancel due to my husband's work hours or made that very clear. I don't recommend this service because of last minute cancellations.

I've had a beautiful and transformative experience with Holomua Healing Arts in Alameda, founded by…read moreBritt Yap. Over the past year, I've received several services including the 2-Hour Life Coaching + Reiki session, Reiki 1 & 2 Practitioner Certification class, Distance "Sunrise Reiki," and most recently the Spiritual Life Coaching Certification class. I'm also looking forward to joining the Virtual Mana Healing sessions now that they're back -- it feels powerful to heal in a safe, like-minded community. From the very first consultation, Britt made me feel safe, heard, and completely at ease (plus, her office has great vibes). She asks thoughtful, intuitive questions that gently get to the root of what you're moving through while honoring both practical and spiritual perspectives. The clarity I received from that first Life Coaching + Reiki session alone was more impactful than any support I've received through insurance-based services. The Reiki portion, though brief, created energetic shifts I could feel clearing throughout the entire week. If I could describe my journey since March 2025 in one word, it would be Clarity -- I feel more connected to myself, my intuition, and my path than I have in years. I felt called to continue exploring the power of energy healing and enrolled in the Reiki 1 & 2 Certification class to support my nervous system and explore this healing work more seriously. Britt is intentional about vetting her students, which creates a safe, supportive learning environment. I even repeated the training six months later (offered at a generous discount) to deepen my practice, and to my pleasant surprise, ended up receiving even more healing myself. Learning alongside like-minded people has been incredibly uplifting, and the sense of community has been a gift in itself. The Spiritual Life Coaching Certification class further supported my personal growth -- building confidence, asking better questions, holding space without projection, and strengthening how I show up for others. I gained practical tools for navigating anxiety, overthinking, and to help build self-trust that I continue to use in daily life and now in my Reiki sessions. I'm also grateful for Britt's distance offering, "Sunrise Reiki," which has become an affordable yet essential form of energetic self-care. The intuitive messages she shares afterward are always insightful and affirming. Living in the Bay Area, I truly appreciate her pricing -- the value far exceeds the cost. Britt has a heart of gold. Her generosity, integrity, and devotion to this work are felt in every offering. Supporting a local, family-owned healing business that pours so much back into the community feels meaningful, especially knowing her mission extends into her nonprofit, High Vibrational Child, which supports healing and empowerment for the next generation. Since beginning this journey, receiving Reiki, becoming attuned, and consistently practicing energetic / spiritual hygiene -- I feel more aligned in my life and relationships. I had bookmarked Holomua Healing Arts years ago in 2019 and finally booked in 2025 (after watching several of Britt's interviews on YouTube to see if she felt like a good fit), it truly feels like divine timing. Even the friendships formed through these trainings have restored my hope in finding safe, heart-centered community again. If you're interested in Reiki or a more spiritually centered form of Life Coaching, I highly recommend reaching out to Britt for a consultation.
