★☆This plan in one word☆★ "Why was I born with this name?" A journey to unravel the "blueprint of your soul" engraved in your name. ☆★About the plan★☆SCR (Soul Contract Reading) is a special session that interprets the "theme to be fulfilled in this world" and "direction of life" based on **your "name at birth"**. People are born with a chosen name. SCR believes that we focus on the vibrations and energy of the sounds and letters of the name to find the "contract = message" that the soul puts into this life. ?Recommended for those who want to know more about their true self ・Are at a turning point in their life ・Want to clear up vague anxieties ・Are unsure of their future choices ・Want to feel the mission given to them?The session will proceed slowly in a dialogue format. It is a content that even first-timers can receive with confidence. Why not try to unravel the existence of "me" from your name? ◆◇Notes on application◇◆SCR (Soul Contract Reading) is a reading of your soul's contract and purpose in this life. The sounds of your name are converted to Hebrew to create a chart. Please note that you will need to provide the Romanization of your name at birth (pronunciation takes priority) and your date of birth in advance. ◇◆Differences between mini readings and full readings◆◇A mini reading session can be experienced in about 30 to 60 minutes. A full reading can be done for an additional 10,000 yen. A full reading is a deeper conversation in which we will explain in detail how to activate the power you have brought with you in this life.

☆★Plan Explanation★☆Why not check the balance of your mind and body "now" with scent? Just by smelling a few kinds of scents, you can see your stress state, concentration, physical condition trends, etc. with "Olfactory Response Analysis". (Patented by General Incorporated Association Comprehensive Support Association) It's as easy as taking your temperature, but it surprisingly highlights your "uniqueness". After the experience, we will also give you lifestyle advice based on the analysis results. ✔ I've been feeling a bit unwell lately ✔ I want to know how to deal with stress ✔ I want a self-care tip that suits me ✔ I've been curious, but I want to try it first This is the [Olfactory Response Analysis Experience] recommended for such people. In fact, this olfactory response analysis can also be used for living with small family members (pets) such as dogs and cats. In the introductory course where you can learn in earnest, it can also be applied to such pet care. First of all, why not start with an experience of noticing the signs of your own mind and body? Both men and women are welcome, either alone or in pairs! Please enjoy the mysterious time of "getting to know yourself through scent" while relaxing ♪

*All my classes will be private until the corona converges. (We will change the number of participants after booking.) In this class, you can experience the basics of the tea ceremony and how to make matcha. Before guiding your friends from overseas, how about learning a little Japanese cultural keywords? It is sure to be a fun opportunity for people who want to test their English conversation skills and participate with people from overseas. (Please inquire in advance if there are any reservations from overseas customers for your desired schedule) Me (Omotesenke school professor) or my husband (both Omotesenke school and Urasenke school certificates) After enjoying the tea prepared by the chef, you can make your own tea and enjoy it. If you are with friends or family, it will be double the fun if you eat together. In our classroom, you can take a seat and draw hot water from the kettle to make the rice. It's not just an experience where everyone sits in the audience and stirs together with a bamboo whisk. I would like you to feel the real texture and weight of each small tool. I was born in Nakagyo Ward, Kyoto City, and I am a qualified teacher of the Omotesenke school who still lives in Nakagyo Ward. Her husband is a descendant of Ihei Ito, who developed somei-yoshino, a cherry blossom variety that is world-famous as the national flower of Japan, at the request of Yoshimune, the eighth shogun of the Tokugawa family. In our classroom, in addition to the antiques given to us by various people and the tea bowls we collected ourselves, we also use old ones given to us by family members. Since sitting in the seiza style puts a lot of strain on the legs, we also offer an experience using a table and chairs called the ryurei style. If you tell us when you make a reservation, even children, the elderly, and people with concerns about their feet and knees can participate with peace of mind. I think there may be cases such as "I learned it a long time ago, but I somehow forgot it", "I don't understand it even if I read a book", "I don't have time to continue learning". Would you like to experience it when it's like that? After the experience, be sure to stop by the Tsukigama and numerous tea ceremonies that can be found throughout Kyoto. I'm sure there will be new discoveries and fun. We can accommodate a large number of people on school trips, family trips, training trips, etc. Our classroom is a member of the Kyoto City Tourism Association. If you have any questions about the detailed etiquette of the tea ceremony or have any questions, please feel free to ask. (Note) *You are free to take pictures before and after the class. *Please refrain from taking photos and videos during the instructor's demonstration.
