Reiki originates from Japan and is a popular hands-on-healing technique that is well known globally.  On Saturday 21st February, you can join in with a fun workshop to find out more about Reiki and energy.  There will be an opportunity for each workshop attendee to experience a Reiki and there will be some interesting activities to do too.

Reiki isn’t just for a select few, all over the world the most unlikely of people have been drawn to its simple yet effective way.  Did you know the President of FEW Kansai, knows a bit about it?  She could teach you a great way to get your children off to sleep!!

Everyone has the potential to remember they are a healer.  This journey starts with ones self.  Everyone has skills, talents, virtues and attributes that they can enjoy to the fullest.  Reiki does not only ‘heal’, which could be looked upon in a more medical way, but it works with your light to allow you to have even more light in your life, thus it can be very practical and grounding.  Whether you have an injury, a baby, a pet, a gardening project, want to enhance some of your ideas, meet more people or just relax, Reiki is your friend to help you through life’s joys and challenges.

So book up right now and see how Reiki can work with you to enhance your light and life.

Please come in comfortable clothing.

Lorraine Mills and Yuko Kubota will be your teachers.  Both are Reiki Masters. 

Yuko returned in 2008 to Osaka from a 10 year stay in New York where she learnt Reiki with a Japanese Master and designed Jewelry. She runs the Kansai Reiki Meet Up Group http://reiki.meetup.com/538/

Lorraine has lived in Japan for 6 years and runs her own photography business www.abundancephotography.com and the Chubu Reiki Meet Up Group http://reiki.meetup.com/561/
