From Joni Yazkulski, Reiki Master:

This month's Reiki share at Blue Pearl Yoga in Batavia will be held via a Zoom meeting. This will be different from Reiki shares that we have in person.

Participants will need to be there at 12:30 p.m. and are asked to stay for the full time (1:30-ish).

There will be a short talk and then the actual share will start at approximately 12:45 p.m. This will give everyone a chance to enter and a little time in case anyone is having an issue getting on.

The Nuts And Bolts...

• You will need to have downloaded the Zoom app on your phone, iPad or computer in order to attend the meeting in person.
• It would be helpful if you had a microphone and webcam so that you can be heard as well as seen.
• If you would like to have music to play in the background for yourself, you should have that ready, too.

Here's the Zoom link. The meeting password is Reiki. You will then go into a waiting room, and I will let you in the meeting once I see that you are there. Please feel free to ca

Call my cell, (585) 261-2723, if you have any questions. I will be happy to help you.

WHO: Joni Yaskulski is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.

WHAT: Reiki share

WHEN: Saturday, April 25, 12:30 p.m. Eastern Time (United States and Canada)

About Reiki

It is a technique for stress reduction and relaxation that allows everyone to tap into an unlimited supply of "Life Force Energy" to improve health and enhance the quality of life.

Are you currently unemployed and subsisting on Supplemental Security Income (SSI) or Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) but are considering seeking employment and could use some assistance? This may be just the opportunity that you're looking for!

Batavia’s premier consumer-run human service and advocacy agency for people with disabilities, Independent Living of the Genesee Region (ILGR) is holding a FREE Ticket To Work Program and Benefits Advisement Information Session at the ILGR office in the Crickler Executive Business Center, at 319 W. Main St., (the former Pepsi Distribution Building) Batavia.

It will take place from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday Dec. 10; light refreshments will be provided.

Offered through the U.S. Social Security Administration (SSA), the Ticket to Work (TTW) program is a free and voluntary program that can help Social Security beneficiaries go to work, get a good job that may lead to a career, and become financially independent, all while they keep their Medicare or Medicaid.

Individuals who receive Social Security benefits because of a disability and are age 18 through 64 probably already qualify for the program. TTW offers participants with disabilities access to meaningful employment with the assistance of Ticket to Work employment service providers called Employment Networks (EN). It may be a good fit for you if you want to improve your earning potential and are committed to preparing for long-term success in the workplace.
