Workshop Meditation
From time to time you may attend a workshop or even run a workshop yourself. If you are looking for a meditation to kick off proceedings this is a great one to start with.

What is Reiki?
To explain Reiki, particularly to people who have no prior experience or knowledge of energy healing is like trying to explain why the sky is blue. It can turn into quite an involved conversation. I generally try to meet people where they are, starting from a common level of understanding and building from there. If Read More

Over the years I have accumulated a fair number of crystals. Some are personal just to me, some are ornaments, while others I use for healing.

Animal magic – Reiki for your fur babies
If like me you are besotted with all creatures great and small, you will naturally be a stressed out earth mamma if your family pet is under the weather. The great news is Reiki can help our furry friends. In fact, the procedure for treating animals is not so different to that for humans, although, Read More

If you have already been attuned to the ancient healing system of Reiki, you will be aware if the benefits for you and your family but did you know it has other uses too? Apart from self-treatments and treating others, Reiki can be used for a number of other purposes. This makes it quite distinct Read More
