RAYKI school to Host Summer Solstice Healing Workshop

The Summer Solstice Healing Workshop is a heart opening healing workshop designed to ignite one’s own healing ability. This experiential workshop, held on June 15-17 in peaceful Bayville on the Jersey Shore, is perfect for healers, caregivers, empaths, healthcare professionals, and anyone in need of self-healing. Attendees will learn how to enhance happiness and health through mind, body, and soul integration.

“We come into this world as a whole and complete being, a beautiful and joyful present from a heavenly star. Over time, we forget about this “me,” says Makiko Fliss, PhD, MSc, Rayki School Founder and workshop facilitator. “Many forgotten memories carry key messages. If we can give ourselves a brief conscious “pause,” we may find answers to core questions like why am I here, do I have a soul mission, or even why won’t my pains go away?”

This two-day healing journey allows participants to discover their inner physician and tap into their original blue print. “Many of us start the healing process and stop without completing it. Our soul seeks completion as we are a whole and complete being,” states Fliss. “No matter how broken you may feel, that blueprint is still there to bring wholeness back to your body and mind.”

Friday night features Rev. Chesbro, the author of The Order Of Melchizedek, followed by an opening ceremony which includes the sacred rhythms of a drum circle. Don’t miss this healing workshop weekend by the sea to share energy with like-minded healers and seekers in a deep inner journey of self-discovery and self-integration.

Tick Talk

Spring officially sprung on March 21. We have turned our clocks ahead. We are looking forward to warm winds, sunny skies and the smell of fresh cut grass. The daffodils and tulips have recently bloomed and we are just starting with the yard work that comes with the warmer weather.  Sadly, another season has started ramping up.  Tick season.

•             The best form of protection is prevention. Educating oneself about tick activity and how our behaviors overlap with tick habitats is the first step.

•             According to the NJ DOH, in 2022 Hunterdon County led the state with a Lyme disease incidence rate of 426 cases per 100,000 people. The fact is ticks spend approximately 90% of their lives not on a host but aggressively searching for one, molting to their next stage or over-wintering. This is why a tick remediation program should be implemented on school grounds where NJ DOH deems high risk for tick exposure and subsequent attachment to human hosts.

•             Governor Murphy has signed a bill that mandates tick education in NJ public schools. See this for the details.  Tick education must now be incorporated into K-12 school curriculum. See link:

•             May is a great month to remind the public that tick activity is in full swing. In New Jersey, there are many tickborne diseases that affect residents, including Anaplasmosis, Babesiosis, Ehrlichiosis, Lyme disease, Powassan, and Spotted Fever Group Rickettsiosis.

•             For years, the focus has mainly been about protecting ourselves from Lyme disease. But other tick-borne diseases are on the rise in Central Jersey. An increase of incidence of Babesia and Anaplasma are sidelining people too. These two pathogens are scary because they effect our blood cells. Babesia affects the red blood cells and Anaplasma effects the white blood cells.

•             Ticks can be infected with more than one pathogen. When you contract Lyme it is possible to contract more than just that one disease. This is called a co-infection. It is super important to pay attention to your symptoms. See link.
