Welcome to Brenner Mindful Paths. I'm Elise Brenner and you may know me as the founder of Brenner Reiki Healing. The new name, Brenner Mindful Paths, reflects my expanded offerings, including Mindfulness Meditation, Forest Bathing, and Reiki. I'm also the co-author of Reiki: A Self Practice to Live in Peace with Self and Others.​

Nourish the medicine within

The capacity to cultivate well-being, mindfulness, connection, and peace already exists within every one of us. ​​Brenner Mindful Paths guides you through mind-body practices that nourish the medicine within. 
I offer mindfulness meditation, forest therapy outings, and Reiki practice and training for self-growth. You, your friends, your workplace, community organization, or support group are invited to participate in these offerings.

Mindfulness

Practicing mindfulness brings awareness to our present moment experiences without judging or trying to fix them. ​

Forest Bathing

Engaging in forest bathing immerses us in nature with all of our senses; being fully present to all that is unfolding around us and within us. 

Reiki

This Japanese mind-body-spirit practice supports wellness, mindfulness, resilience, and recovery capacity. ​

We create a safe zone together

I hold awareness of the impact that systems of cultural and power domination, white supremacy, and violence to individuals and communities, have on health and healing. Together with you, let's establish a sustainable space of safety and liberation.​

Reclaim your inner resources

Brenner Mindful Paths offers support as you re-claim your inner resources for living in peace with self and others. Move forward with courage, composure, and more ease equally through the darker corners of our paths, the heavy stones on our paths, the sunlit clearings in our paths, and what is to be revealed around the bend on the path ahead.
