In doing some spring cleaning of old files I came across this keynote speech I did for the One Gathering back in 2007. And yet, the sentiment is timeless. Enjoy! We are connected to everything. I know that sounds cliché, but its so true. I’ve been practicing and working with the Universal Energy of Reiki […]

I wanted to talk a bit about what distance healing is and how it can be as effective as in-person Reiki sessions, the advantages and disadvantages to the technique. In working with Reiki for over 20 years I have had the honor of helping thousands of clients heal and obtain relief from various aliments, illnesses, […]

I remember in 1991 when I first visited Seattle on a family vacation how radiant and lush the landscape and views were. I had travelled many parts of the globe by then, and yet touching down here at that time, I felt a deep sense of home. The land whispered to me, “Come back”. It […]

Continued from Part I She took my hand and looked up at me. “My name is Lily’, the 7 year old, one-eyed Brahmin priestess replied in a calm and gentle manner. Her hand in mine, Lily guided me to the top of several stairs going above the street. We stepped onto what looked like a […]

This is the first part of a short story inspired by a dream I had just last night. It starts out in present day Seattle. I had a lot of bags I was carrying, and was having difficulty with managing them as I was walking down the street in the International District of Seattle. As […]

The physical and emotional memories of the ear infections I got as a kid are now processing themselves. It’s trauma and pain I’ve blocked out for most of my life, partly because those illnesses are a part of childhood, partly because I don’t want to remember what they were like. But now, as an adult, […]

I invite you to take this time to go deep within. Take a breath. Honor this moment and this pause. The world at large going on around you is still going on, regardless of how you feel about it. I stumbled across a beautiful project that is a collection of positive words from around the […]

The first year Obamacare was offered I didn’t have to pay for insurance because of my income at the time. As my practice has grown, I’ve had to adopt and pay a low monthly fee with a high deductible. Emergency coverage it’s called. Many of us who are practitioners have it. Is it ideal? What’s […]

To transform old energy, I am writing down on slips of paper the things that were obstacles, challenges, frustrations and disappointments. They go into the pile to be burned. I’m not saying that I didn’t learn from those things, and will continue to learn from them, but they didn’t necessarily help the forward motion of […]

Inspired by this article of the Playborhood concept for kids and neighborhoods, I am reminded of my own experience when I was a kid, growing up in Clifton, NJ, a suburb of Manhattan. After school was spent over my friends’ house, 3 brothers: Mike, Daniel and Jeremy. Their parents, Mr. and Mrs. Lee had devoted […]

I know tonight is the final presidential debate. I would seriously advise avoiding watching the telecast or engaging in social media to keep your own emotional state in balance.

As a helper and healer in the world, we are sensitive people, to both emotions and to the world we live in. The effects of the recent attacks on Paris and the mass shootings in the US have shaken a bit of my own confidence in humanity and for a world based on peace, rather […]

When we are physically separated from a loved one, for an extended period of time, there is a feeling within of loss. The routine of connection has been disrupted. There is vacant space in the moments once filled by presence. And yet, they still exist in the world, living and breathing. The connection is still […]

This blog written by Reiki Master and Fellowship member Jacquie Hansen. In our world around us if you have been tuning into news one of the leading causes of disease is inflammation in our bodies. This has many causes that separately would not be a big deal but when put together is a caustic combination. […]

Here it comes. The end to another amazing, challenging and eventful year. When I reflect on all the wonderment that’s occurred, I’m happy I’m taking a pre-Christmas pause in lovely San Diego to compose this. So here goes: January: We started off with Reiki circles at the charming Ravenna Healing House. I couldn’t be there, […]

Join us November 1st, 2014 from 10-11am PST. I feel it’s overdue for Reiki practitioners called to action to set some time aside to send Reiki to the situation, whether that be to the patients, families, medical staff, research scientists, officials and basically into the future, for assistance, light and compassion. This being the Day […]
