ABOUT
RITA TAPIA,
RECE.
(she/her)
Rita has been supporting families in Ottawa, by facilitating playgroups, parenting workshops, and one on one support for over 20 years. She has always been passionate about empowering families. She also met many families in the community by facilitating Infant Massage and Preschool Yoga at the Park during the pandemic!
In October 2022 she experienced a breathwork session and soon discovered the impact this healing modality can have in our lives. From stress relief, to emotional release, to coping with anxiety; we have it in us to self-heal. The benefits were too good for her not to want to share with the world!
Reiki has been one of Rita’s self care experiences for over 10 years. In 2023, she decided to give back to the community and become a Reiki practitioner. She is excited for this journey!

What is Breathwork?
Breathwork is gaining global popularity, though its roots stretch back through history. The term encompasses a multitude of interpretations, with diverse styles and approaches offering fresh perspectives on this ancient art.
Broadly speaking, breathwork entails employing specific breathing patterns to attain particular objectives. During a session, practitioners blend various inhalation and exhalation techniques, varying in duration, speed, and intensity, often incorporating breath holds or retentions. These practices influence the central nervous system, leading to physical, mental, and emotional transformations.
Benefits can include: increased energy, vitality, mental clarity, focus, pain relief, resilience, presence, and inner peace.
The session duration is 90 minutes (actual breath portion is about 30 minutes)

The flow slows things down completely bringing the breather in a deep parasympathetic state, potentially unlocking the nervous system and releasing stress, and emotions. Many people experience a deep sense of peace and relaxation.
REIKI
Reiki Master (level 3)
What is Reiki?
-
Reiki is a form of alternative therapy that originated in Japan. The word "Reiki" is derived from two Japanese words: "rei," which means "universal," and "ki," which means "life energy" or "vital energy."
-
The session usually begins with a brief discussion between the practitioner and recipient, where the recipient can express any concerns or intentions they have for the session. This helps the practitioner tailor the session to meet the recipient's needs. During the session, the practitioner places their hands lightly on or just above the recipient's body, in various positions corresponding to energy centers or chakras.
-
The goal is to facilitate the flow of energy and promote relaxation, stress reduction, and healing on physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual levels.
