<div id="contentrecs"><p>AVONDALE — A calling to share niche healing services with the community led Jillian Pain to open up her first brick-and-mortar shop in Avondale’s “Witches Corridor.”</p><p>Pain opened <a data-wpel-link="external" href="https://www.oracleandalchemy.com/pages/healingservices" rel="noreferrer noopener external" target="_blank">Oracle + Alchemy studio</a>, 2916 W. Belmont Ave., last month. Her business is part movement and healing studio and part community and workshop space, she said.</p><p>After completing her yoga training, Pain said she felt called to open a shop and combine ritualistic yoga classes with her healing practitioner background. The storefront used to be a tax office and has been vacant for at least four years.</p><p>Pain, who lives in West Humboldt Park, has experience in Kundalini yoga, breathwork, chakra balancing, reiki and more.</p><aside class="scaip scaip-1"><style>@media ( min-width: 300px ){.newspack_global_ad.scaip-1{min-height: 100px;}}@media ( min-width: 320px ){.newspack_global_ad.scaip-1{min-height: 100px;}}@media ( min-width: 728px ){.newspack_global_ad.scaip-1{min-height: 90px;}}@media ( min-width: 970px ){.newspack_global_ad.scaip-1{min-height: 90px;}}</style> <div class="newspack_global_ad scaip-1 fixed-height"> <!-- /22997378029/newspack-in-article-2-6511c2970b70d --><div id="div-gpt-ad-f678132859-0"></div> </div> </aside><p>“I knew I wanted to teach Kundalini, because it’s a spiritual practice for me, and it’s powerfully transformational,” Pain said. “I did not connect with wearing a turban or white clothes.
