Body Wisdom – every cell in your body has intelligence.  So are you listening up? or treating your body as a mechanism?

Sunday 13 March 1.30-5.30 p.m. $75

·         This powerful mini-workshop is based on the philosophy of Louise L. Hay who cured herself of cancer by understanding the  connections between the mind-body-spirit unit

·         Get to be aware of the messages the body is sending you before symptoms develop into full-blown dis-ease.

New Year’s Resolutions, Part I – or Create Your Future Today

Sunday 20 March 1.30-5.30 p.m. $75

·         The Prologue was when you diligently, and with much hope, wrote out your 2011 goals on 1 January

·         How are you doing now?

·         If you have lost sight of your goals, or even if you are on track but want tips to keep going through the year, then this workshop will provide a useful platform to stay the course

Advance Notice:

Reiki 2^nd level – developing your Reiki skills further

14-15 May 9.30  a.m. to 4.30  p.m.

·         Stepping from Reiki Level 1 to Level 2 is like going from kindergarten to university, so said a level 2 student!

·         For those who have not had an opportunity to practice level 1 to its full extent, they often find that Reiki 2 makes it more available and real due to its totally different nature

·         This class takes you into the symbolic language of the Reiki vibrational science to learn precise methods for directing universal energy outside of time and space

Fee:  $600.  Early bird discount:  5% off when registered by 13 April 2011 with a 10% deposit.

Namaste All,

I am pleased to formally announce that the Reiki Association of Jamaica is hosting the Annual Regional Gathering from Thursday September 22nd to Sunday September 25th 2011. This will take place at the Morgan’s Habour Hotel, in the historically-rich town of Port Royal conveniently located across the harbour from the capital Kingston and just fifteen minutes drive from Norman Manley International Airport.
The pricing will be as follows: For persons requiring the privacy of their own room US$360. For persons sharing a room (2 to a room) US$240 each. For participants not staying at the hotel US$120. Prices are quoted in US$ for convenience but JA$ equivalent will, of course, be accepted. The package includes all events planned for the duration and airport-hotel transfers and breakfast for hotel-based participants.

Participants who are interested in contributing to the event by way of making presentations are invited to contact any member of the Executive (see Contacts and Links) with ideas to see how these may best be incorporated. We are also open for members who would like to volunteer for the Organising Committee. Further, we are encouraging the “before and after” concept for those interested in integrating courses or classes with the event. These will will be announed as they manifest, the idea being to utilise the great hotel room rate and facilities being offered, which may be extended to incorporate these associated events.

Registration forms and a draft programme format will be circulated within the next four weeks.

I personally am very excited as this promises to be simply fabulous. I hope to see you all there and as usual, please feel free to circulate this message.

Reiki Blessings.

Frederic Burnett
President
Reiki Association of Jamaica

Public Outreach and Inward Strengthening – New Format for BRA Monthly Meetings
The Association will continue to focus on spreading awareness of Reiki through outreach activities and participation in various health and wellness fairs, including its annual June Complementary Health Day.  This year, the Association will also place renewed emphasis on fostering a common understanding among Reiki initiates, regardless of their lineage, as well as strengthening the Association’s members in their practice. As part of this initiative, there will be a change in the structure of monthly meetings, which will now start with group healing (45 minutes), followed by discussion of Association business (30 minutes) and end with a session of sharing on Reiki (45 minutes) that will take various forms, including Q & A, video presentation, and guided meditation etc. You can look forward to an exciting range off activities over the next 12 months!

Next Monthly Meeting – March 3rd, 2011
Our next monthly meeting with the new format, will take place on Thursday, March 3rd, 2011 from 7:00 to 9:00 pm in the Main Guard, The Garrison, St. Michael.  The Reiki Reflection (sharing) will take the form of an open Question and Answer Session on Reiki.  So do come out, ready to share, and please feel free to bring along a Reiki friend.
