“Many Ways to Heal” will be the topic of Cindi Newhouse for the Sept. 17 meeting of the Emerald Coast Meditation Society.

The free meeting will start with a 30-minute meditation at 6:30 p.m. in the parish hall at Christ the King Episcopal Church, 480 N. Co. Hwy. 393, Santa Rosa Beach, one-half mile north of Hwy. 98. The ECMS is ecumenical and follows no religion.

Newhouse will discuss traditional Western and Far Eastern forms of medicine, how they differ, and the newer, more integrative ways of thinking about healing. She plans to discuss reiki in particular, and the active partnership between the practitioner and patient. The key ingredients, she says, are an ability and desire to give, along with the heart to receive.

Newhouse has long been interested in how our minds work. She says she can remember back when “the other teenage girls had subscribed to teen magazines, and I was reading Psychology Today.”

Newhouse, who grew up in Grand Rapids, Mich., holds a nursing RN degree and reiki certification. She and her late husband lived “all over the map” before moving to the Emerald Coast in 2014. She says she is very happy to call Santa Rosa Beach home.

Newhouse claims to have “two beautiful daughters, two wonderful sons-in-law, and two perfect grandchildren.” She also adores her newest acquisition, “a.simply terrific dog I found through Alaqua Animal Refuge.” Babs is in training to become a therapy dog. Newhouse spends much of her time painting.

The evening will conclude with a short guided meditation. Anyone who needs meditation instruction should arrive by 6:15 p.m. For information contact Nancy James, at nancyjames@embarqmail.com
