Reiki Attunements in Charleston, West Virginia
Charleston is West Virginia's capital and largest city, set where the Elk River meets the Kanawha River amid the folded hills of the Appalachian coalfields.
Its economy grew from salt, coal, natural gas, and chemicals, and its gold-domed capitol is one of the most striking statehouses in the country. Locals affectionately call it 'Charlie West.'. 'Charlestown' was shortened to 'Charleston' in 1818 to avoid confusion with Charles Town, West Virginia. It became West Virginia's permanent state capital in 1885, and the current Cass Gilbert-designed capitol was dedicated June 20, 1932, after fire destroyed the previous statehouse in 1921. George Clendenin and a company of Virginia Rangers built Fort Lee here in 1788; the settlement was named for his father, Charles Clendenin. The West Virginia State Capitol, whose gold-leaf dome rises about 292 feet, taller than the dome of the U.S. Capitol. West Virginia food traditions run deep here: the pepperoni roll (the official state food, born as a miner's lunch) and the West Virginia slaw dog topped with chili, coleslaw, and mustard. Historic industries include salt production, coal, natural gas, and glassmaking; the Kanawha Salt Company, organized in 1817, is often called the first trust in the United States. State government and the public sector are major employers as the seat of West Virginia's government. Lessons run at your own speed and are complementary support for steadiness through the week.
