"Patty Penner gave me a Reiki session that was so effective and calming that I wanted to learn Reiki myself to pass on the wonderful feeling of bliss I experienced.  Patty really tunes in to the person and it feels as if the session is custom made for you.  I was receiving Reiki from another practitioner and immediately felt a difference in style.  Patty has a calm voice that lulls you into a feeling of complete release.  I have had some amazing ! visions while receiving Reiki from Patty.  I have experienced less pain since receiving Reiki and feel more calm and balanced in general. Patty also teaches Reiki and since learning from her I can proceed with confidence that it is an effective healing tool that not only benefits the receiver but also the giver."

"Patty has been my teacher for both level I and level II Reiki training beginning in October 2005.  She was very thorough, informing me before hand of what I needed to do in preparation for each class.  She explained everything that would happen during the attunement ceremonies and during the 21 day cleansing period following each attunement.  She blocked in plenty of time for practicing new Reiki skills on another person as part of the training.   However, what has impressed me most about Patty is her willing, enthusiastic, unflagging support after my training.  I receive at least three emails a week from her since taking her classes. She checked in with me several times during the three week cleansing periods to see how I was doing.  She is always available to answer questions and offer support.  If she can’t answer a particular question, she has many other avenues to pursue in search of the answer.  She is constantly updating her knowledge base and sharing her new learning with her students.  The number of Reiki websites, books and other resources that she has first hand experience with is impressive and she never hesitates to offer them to her students.   A weekly angel card reading, suggestions for new holds, new invocations, and other Reiki news are all part of the “package” when Patty is your teacher.  She continues to offer opportunities for her students to practice in the form of Reiki Share sessions and assisting new students during their training.  As one of her students, you will not feel lost, unsupported or rusty!

"I met Patty when I was intuitively led to take her Chi Gong class. That meeting has been transformative in my life.  From the very first it was clear that Patty was a spiritually evolved being, someone who could be trusted, someone with good energy and ideals. Those first impressions have proven true over time.  Patty has brought much needed healing into my life in a variety of ways.  Her Chi Gong class has had a noticeable effect on my health and my mental and emotional well-being.  Chi Gong has been an important component of my recovery from breast cancer.  I have also had Reiki treatment from Patty, which has not only removed considerable levels of stress from my life, but has helped me reevaluate some relationships in a more positive and centered way.  When the Reiki energy brings peace into your mind and body (other than possibly an emotional release when it is happening), you are more able to see things as they are, without a fearful agenda. Because Patty has inspired me, I chose to take her Reiki Level I class.  I told Patty I am becoming a "Reiki Junkie" and love to give Reiki to myself and others.  It has helped me stay "present" and to respond to problems in my life with increased calm and perspective. I use Reiki to eliminate the clenched gut I used to get from stress.  Thank you, Patty!"

"I have known and loved  Patricia Penner for over thirty years. Her work over the last 12 years in Eastern studies, martial arts and spiritual healing has been inspirational. Through her discipline, passion and enthusiasm for her work and studies she has flowered into an accomplished Master Teacher and Healer.  Since her arrival in the Madison area she has developed a following in both martial arts and as a Reiki teacher and healing practitioner. Her talents and intuition have brought healing energy and relief to her many students and clients. The love and respect they have for her is evident in their continued devotion to her teachings. Her ongoing  studies in a wide variety of spiritual pathways continue to broaden her horizons and expand her knowledge of alternative health and well-being."
