RECOVERY REIKI group (coming soon!)
Reiki aims to help the body's natural healing abilities by releasing energy flows and increasing energy levels. Reiki is not part of any religion or belief system, and it's not intended to cure illnesses or diseases. However, some people believe that reiki can help with relaxation, anxiety, pain management, and depression.

NOT ONE MORE - ENDING OVERDOSE
Our communities are on the frontlines of the overdose crisis, but we imagine a world where we treat each other with care. A world where people aren’t locked away for their mistakes but are offered a way to heal. We are people who use drugs, people in recovery, and loved ones of people with substance use disorder, and we are dedicated to taking action to end the overdose crisis. We fight for access to healthcare, treatment, and harm reduction tools that meet us where we’re at, are evidence-based and affordable, and empower every New Jerseyan who struggles with addiction to live healthier lives.
We have monthly virtual meetings for anyone looking to get involved in the fight and build community together. New members are always welcome.
We meet every second Thursday of the month at 6:00 p.m. – join us by RSVP’ing at njorganizing.us/notonemorenjmtg
