Reiki, Golden Week and the Uesaku Festival

This is the Golden Week Holiday in Japan, a time of mass exodus and crowded roads (as well as crowded temples, shrines, hotels, restaurants, trains, buses, malls, supermarkets, convenience stores and cemeteries). Since, as you all know, I’m not traveling this year as I’m spending the bulk of the holiday with a paint roller glued [...]

Understanding Reiki

I recently stumbled upon a great article about Reiki that demanded some attention. It is a bit basic, but has a true depth to it that makes it a great read.

I’ve also included it in our Reiki Article section (to the [...]

Twittering With Reiki a.k.a. Reiki Tweets

Have you started using Twitter yet? You know, the micro-blogging application?

I started blogging about Reiki about a year and a half ago, and let me tell you it was pretty tough getting a Reiki Blog started. Once some momentum built [...]

Angels Know About Reiki

I‘m not going to go into an in-depth discussion about Angels, as there are far too many interpretations and religious underpinnings, but I’d like to quickly discuss a recent Reiki encounter I’ve had with what are commonly referred to as Angels that I thought y’all might be interested in.
First off, I’m of the opinion that [...]

Salt Water Reiki

My goodness, how time flies!!! A major move and a loss of Internet for quite a while kept me away for much longer than I had hoped. God willing, things are back to normal (or some semblance thereof) so I can get back on track. I have been continuing my Reiki studies, and have something [...]

Reiki Holiday

Just a quick note to let y’all know that I’ll be gone until after the holidays. I may not have Internet access, so I’m not sure if I’ll be posting or not.
Will do my best…
In the meantime… keep on Reiki-ing.
For further explanation or discussion, your thoughts are most welcome and highly encouraged, please feel [...]

The party will [...]
