Come to HSI’s Open Séances where we receive messages, impressions and communication from our spirit loved-ones and friends.

If you believe that life goes on, that there is another dimension and that given the right conditions one may receive information from that special place, then our Open Séance is just the right place for you.

Ongoing Events

NEW: Energy Healing Circles

Every Friday evening at 7 – 8 PM
$10 - per person

HSI has reformatted our Healing Circles to combine both Reiki and Therapeutic Touch energies. In doing so, we have found these circles to be much more powerful, creating not only a peaceful, healing environment but one which facilitates fast, concrete changes in the lives of those who attend and receive healing form our certified practitioners. At these Healing Circles, we will channel powerful healing energy into your energy field (aura), your physical body and into your life. Our Healing Practitioners will be giving individual healing sessions using either Therapeutic Touch or Reiki techniques. Patrons now receive 2 to 3 healing sessions to deeply empower their healing requests. We also welcome requests to send distance healing to your friends and loved ones not in attendance. Just let us know and we’ll put them in our Healing Book.

No appointments necessary—please arrive by 7 PM with an openness to receive gentle, yet powerful healing energy.
Please do not wear cologne or perfume.

Every Friday, except Psychic Fair Fridays, from 7 to 8 PM.

Reiki Study Group

HSI’s Reiki Study Group is open to all who have completed the Reiki Level I & II Practitioner Certification Courses and/or who are Certified Reiki Practitioners. Every month we will share ideas, healing experiences and provide a forum to practice and fine tune our Reiki skills. There is no fee - donations are appreciated. If you would like to facilitate one of these sessions or would like more information, contact Rev. Charlene Robbins, RM, at (518) 464-9624.
