News from nomiSpa | |
To add to the calming of the Inn and nomiSpa, orgonites are being incorporated in the spa and throughout the house. What is an orgonite?
Orgonite has a remarkable property, where it continually processes or transmutes negative energies to a positive one around it's vicinity. Feng Shui practitioners will love orgonite as there are no calculations required for placement, to bring in positive qi/chi, unlike previous traditional methods. To read more, click here: Orgonite
