Due to Reiki’s quantum, organic and evolving nature, each Reiki practitioner must adapt their Reiki practice to his or her own specific needs. This is not as difficult as it sounds, and to that end I have [...]

Yoga, like Reiki, was originally intended as a spiritual pursuit. Western Yoga, again like Western Reiki, seems to have lost its spirituality somewhere in the translation and just as Reiki is billed primarily as a healing or relaxation technique, Yoga is primarily billed as a physical pretzel replicating pursuit.

Care must be taken, of course, so that people don’t get the wrong impression, as some people are instantly wary of anything connected to religion or spirituality.
In Japan, when I introduce [...]

I refer to my own personal style of Reiki as Hana Reiki. Hana is Japanese for “flowers” which represents both my last name as well as the organic (and beautiful) nature of Reiki and the Reiki Energies.

Most Reiki Practitioners that I know basically fall into one of three categories as to which facet of Reiki they find most appealing.

Reiki has a lot of abilities beyond those associated with healing and/or spirituality.
