I attended Reclaiming Your Power: A Transformational Retreat Experience on July 18, 2026. The experience was more powerful than I could ever have imagined! This journey, guided by Donna Lakes left me transformed. The studio is warm and inviting and I cannot thank Donna enough for the healing and recovery I experienced from her sharing her expertise throughout this program. Thank you to my fellow attendees for your honesty and openness and mutual support.

Donna has an amazing healing ability! She is also a great mentor and reiki teacher. I’ve had some Reiki 1&2 with her and also did a healing session. She makes you feel so comfortable and relaxed. I would recommend her 1000 times over!

Overcoming life’s obstacles, no matter how difficult, first exist in our own mind. That has certainly been my experience. Donna has given me the tools to break old patterns that no longer serve me, heal wounds from my childhood, and encourage me to be the best version of myself with positive reinforcement every step of the way. I’ve had many impactful healing sessions and I certainly recommend ASHA for anything you’re facing and/or to learn and grow on your journey.

I am currently enrolled in the year one intuitive development program through ASHA. Starting with the 12 week self-healing course, ASHA has been that extra reminder and push to instill the boundaries and positive changes I have been making in my life since my healing journey began some years ago. I was able to dig even deeper than I ever had before and I have learned so many new tools to stay grounded and connected within myself. ASHA supports you while you instill a new way of living, a healthy healed version of yourself. <3

The Ascension School of Healing Arts has been a meaningful and educational experience for me. I began my journey by taking the Intuitive Reiki I & II course. While I had previously been exposed to Reiki, this course offered a more in-depth and structured learning experience.

Dev demonstrated a strong intuitive approach during the course and created a supportive learning environment. The Intuitive Reiki I & II program was well organized, combining hands-on practice with access to informative, user-friendly online materials. The classroom environment was warm and inviting, and there was a clear sense of community among students at ASHA.

This program felt like a worthwhile personal and educational investment. Dev is personable, knowledgeable, and kind, and she brings a thoughtful and grounded presence to her teaching. Through ASHA, I have explored intuitive development, self-reflection practices, and emotional awareness in a supportive setting.

Overall, my experience at the Ascension School of Healing Arts has been positive, and I would recommend their courses and services to individuals who are interested in learning more about energy-based practices and personal development. ✨

The Ascension School of Healing Arts has changed my life for the better and has been a catalyst for my soul evolution. I originally started my journey by taking the Intuitive Reiki I & II course. I have had some previous experiences receiving reiki but none to this magnitude. During class, Dev was able to intuitively pick up on my physical aliments that I have been diagnosed with and have been working on over the past year without her having any prior awareness of them before class. Intuitive Reiki I & II had an amazing format with hands on application, access to informative user friendly web materials, a warm cozy inviting classroom environment and there is truly a sense of community at ASHA. From that point on, I became committed to embarking on the journey to become a Certified Year I Healer. I am currently enrolled in two more classes and it is the best investment that I have ever made in my life. From my personal healing sessions monthly to weekly class sessions, Dev is extremely personable, knowledgeable and kind. She is an amazing teacher, healer and person with much to share. I have had much growth and spiritual development through ASHA. My personal healings with Dev, developing my intuition, reparenting my inner child, deep emotional release work and healing myself have all been new modalities that have contributed to my growth. My spiritual growth has been rewarding in my everyday life and it feels like I was divinely guided to the Ascension School of Healing Arts. No amount of money could substitute what I have been gaining from ASHA and I would not trade my experience for the world. It feels like I have found my soul family. I would recommend this school and there services to anyone who is ready to embark on their ascension journey. ✨

The best Reiki school—transformative teaching, deep healing, memorable experience. Thank you Dev !!!!

Being disillusioned with the medical treatments for my chronic illness, I went to Donna Lakes(Devraj) for some physical healing. Within a couple of days after my first Reiki session with Dev, I had some physical healing take place. I was surprised and amazed. I had already researched the school and decided to take the Self-Healing course that was going to start soon. That course taught me a lot about myself and why I do the things I do, Very eye-opening. All I can really say about ASHA, Dev, the instructors, students and the program is that it has changed my life. I am happier, healthier, less angry and stressed out, and am more in-touch with my true self. Looking forward to continuing my journey so I can then help others on their journey. Thank you for being here.
I would definitely recommend to anyone that is having problems, physically, mentally, emotionally or spiritually to do a workshop, sign-up for a class. You will love yourself for doing so.

I had the pleasure of taking classes with Dev. She is very knowledgeable and very good teacher. I have definitely learned so much from her and im a better healer.

I've taken two classes at the Ascension School if Healing Arts, and had multiple healing sessions with Donna (Dev) so far. Her readings are deep and thorough. The classes are insightful, and easy to follow. I especially appreciated the option to attend in person and online.
