King's Touch Reiki

 Recently a friend sent a note, saying she was experiencing pain in her upper body and neck, and feel it is related to 'releasing ancestor pain bodies.' In addition to sending distant healing, I suggested she do one of my favorite clearing exercises, followed by a short self treatment.  You may wish to try it as well!  Take a few minutes to set sacred space - dim the lights, light a candle, and invite your angels and guides to assist. Cozy space Three Sweeps (I usually stand): Rub your hands together Bring your hands above your head: Fingers facing back, little fingers together, hands a few inches above your head. 'sweep' down over your hair and shoulders then sides (just off the body) At the bottom, flick your fingers toward the floor/ ground. Repeat twice more:  'I cleanse my aura (sweep & flick) 'I cleanse my spirit (sweep & flick) 'I cleanse my body (sweep & flick) Imagine anything cleansed / cleared goes into the earth as compost!  Take...

  When a friend or family member is suffering, do you wish there was  'something more'  you could do? Welcome to Reiki! Summer skies If you are sensitive to energy, and easily overwhelmed, you may find Reiki helps mitigate that, and that you're better able to function in groups.  We become the 'jumper cables' connecting to source, and Reiki flows exactly where it's needed.  Artists, writers and musicians often find Reiki helps them tap the font of inspiration.  In Reiki I, students learn basic Reiki practices, form and history, and are initiated in traditional Usui Reiki I. We will also make cards for integrating the five Reiki Precepts.  Basic hands on Treatment for self and others Reiki as 'first aid' Attunement to Reiki Spiritual, emotional and mental health support Practice time Reiki precepts as guidelines History and background of Reiki and the Masters Spiritual, mental and emotional healing Time for Q and A  A massage therapist since 1...

  Living and working on Healing Arts at Breitenbush in the 90s, I was blessed to attend the Annual Reiki Gathering with Phyllis Lei Furomoto, and to study with healers and mentors from many traditions and backgrounds, including Wheels of Light author Rosalyn Bruyere, the Breema community, Egypt scholar Nicky Scully, Qigong teachers, ethetic healer Eric Vormanns, Lightwork teacher Amorah Quan Yin, and many others. I met Mt Shasta healer  Amorah  shortly after moving to Breitenbush thirty years ago, and enjoyed our chats and hearing about her Pleiadian Lightwork, and the book ( Pleiadian Workbook ) she was writing. So when she offered her month long intensive training several years later at Breitenbush, I signed up!  I had moved to the coast, but was asked to 'fill-in' in the Healing Arts, during the time the workshop was scheduled.  So I asked for and received received permission to schedule my sessions around our workshop time! As Amorah suggested, I purchased ...

 An inquiry arose in a online Reiki community recently on fielding communication from a former client, several years after their therapeutic relationship ended, which no longer felt beneficial or appropriate. Suggestions from the community included both setting / reinforcing boundaries, and perhaps a need for cutting cords.  Some of my teachers and fellow healers have offered techniques which can be used when it feels that cutting cords is in order. This practice includes teachings from several of them, and can be adapted as you feel the need. Middle Mea Meadow Pool - Breitenbush If you've taken Second Degree, you can include Mental-Emotional and distant Reiki.  Sit in a quiet, safe space, ground yourself, and see your aura bubble shining bright around you, bring your hands to Gassho (prayer position.) Invite your Reiki guides to support and guide you in this process. Ask that any clearing be for your and the other's highest good, and that it be a gracious, gentle process...

 In the early 90s, I began making  flower essences  shortly after joining the Healing Arts Team at Breitenbush Hot Springs and becoming a Reiki Master.  One of my books on essences was Machaelle Small Wright's. I'd been gardening co-creatively with Nature since reading about Findhorn in the 80s, and later discovered Machaelle's Garden Workbook. When she published her  Medical Assistance Program (MAP),  I got her initial handouts, then the book. Petunia - creative visionary With this program (developed from her work with Devas and nature spirits, Machaelle began to work with a "team" for personal health - both physical and mental/emotional. It dovetails beautifully with energy work including Reiki and etheric healing, tuning forks and lightweaving, and during sessions received from other healers. The team includes: PAN (the CEO of nature)  Great White Brotherhood (Ascended Masters, including Motherr Mary and Christos, and the Reiki guides) Deva  of...

  While studying to become an   Intentional Creativity teacher and coach   in 2015, one of our assignments was to offer  Red Thread Circles  and events. I included a simple circle as part of a 1st Degree Reiki class, and we created Reiki journals in 2nd Degree - the students loved them! My teacher Maestra Shiloh Sophia invited me to consider the connections between Reiki and the IC teachings,  "I know there are connections, explore what they are."  A Chinese legend tells that we are connected before birth with those whom we're destined to meet by an invisible Red Thread. Through out our lives, the thread may twist, stretch and tangle, but will never   break.  We each hold, and are responsible for a unique piece of this thread.  Sharing Red Thread With Reiki, we often feel the resonance of connection when we meet other  Reiki practitioners, or first connect with our Master. The teachings and practices of  I ntentional Creativity® ...

When I took First Degree thirty years ago, my teacher Analise explained the levels, and I immediately knew I wished to learn to "open the Reiki door" for others! The next year, I began trading sessions with a nearby practitioner .  I traveled to Janelle's studio in a nearby town, and she would come to mine. This was an excellent way to ground the teachings, as Analise had moved out of state, and I didn't know any other Reiki practioners.  Healing flame - Breitenbush 1993 In fall I took Reiki 2, and the following summer ('91), let Analise know I'd like to take Reiki 3 on her next visit to Oregon. She told me she was coming in early summer, so we set the date! (Yikes!!)   I offered massage on the Healing Arts team, and they had decided to take  initiation in Reiki 1 the previous year. I was asked to offer level 2 initiation for the team after my own training, and initiated a number of staff over the next decade.  There were 3 other students in our Ma...

A question students often ask is, " do we need to protect ourselves when offering a Reiki session?"  Well, no, ... yes, ... maybe!  No : In general, Reiki is"self adjusting," flowing where it needs to, in exactly the right amount, for both the practitioner and the receiver. Anything released returns to the earth and elements as energy. Reiki also recharges the giver during the session! Yes : Some individuals tend to take on others' energy more readily than others. Do you get easily fatigued in a large group? Are you sensitive to outside energies in everyday life? Try some of these suggestions, and observe what works best for YOU!  Intention : Taking a few minutes before and after a session to focus in and set your intention. You might think of this as "protection," or simply something you do! Invite anything released go into mama Gaia as compost, or hand it off to their guides and angels.  You may notice that your daily self-Reiki practice brin...
