I think my mom is engaging in avoda zarah.

Background: she has always been into this Feng-Shuai, reiki, kabbalah center type BS. But now she’s taking it a step further. She joined a class online with other people on zoom and they talk about really disturbing things like giving angels power that they can influence the world. I spoke to her about this and she says that she frequently asks angels for help with various problems in her life. I keep telling her this is not ok, and that you can use angels as a medium to connect with Hashem but not to pray to the angels directly.

I’ve tried to get a rabbi to talk to her, he would tell her what she is doing is incorrect but she keeps continuing, how can I get her to stop. We are a traditional family (i.e. Shabbat dinner but with TV on.), she is trying to get my grandparents, aunt and uncle involved with her shenanigans.

P.S. I do not want to hear any opinions about justifying her behavior.
