Reiki Attunements in Des Moines, Iowa

Its skyline is anchored by a gold-domed state capitol, and its economy runs on insurance and finance, with more than 80 insurance companies earning it the nickname 'Hartford of the West.' Each August the city swells for the Iowa State Fair, one of the country's oldest and largest agricultural expositions. It was incorporated as Fort Des Moines in 1851 and shortened to Des Moines in 1857. Des Moines became the state capital in January 1858, when oxen-driven bobsleds hauled the state archives in from Iowa City. The name derives from the Des Moines River, likely from the French Riviere des Moines meaning 'River of the Monks,' though its exact origin is debated.
