Virtual Usui Retreat – August 15, 2009

Shared by Verity Dawson (reprinted with permission)

Greetings Reiki Friends,

You are invited to join with other Reiki practitioners every August 15th to celebrate Usui’s birthday in the Usui 21-Day Retreat that starts at that time. This Retreat is not limited to one location, but takes place wherever you may be. It lasts for 21 days during which time we (mutually) intend that the highest good of all concerned will be served, and that our community experience will generate a deep, very nurturing ocean of shared Reiki.

Please join the Retreat by following an example set by Dr. Mikao Usui, it is our plan to set aside time to reflect, open our minds and hearts to fresh outlooks on life, and look deeply within to discover balance and wellness.

During these 21 days, with your intention always focused on the highest good of all concerned, you may wish to meditate and pray at home (or wherever you may be) and to share distant Reiki with the consent of others in this Retreat. You may wish to plan self-treatment sessions every day during the Retreat, or offer Reiki to others in your community or Reiki Circle.

Some Reiki practitioners work for restoring balance to our planet. This 21-day period supports this work by providing space for sharing that practice with others.

Mari Hall a longtime Reiki practitioner and teacher, currently is the hostess of the Usui 21-Day Retreat and is looking forward to sharing this 21-Day Reiki healing space with you.

If you have been previously participating and have received the letters then there is NOTHING to do. If you want to join us for the first time please sign up for the newsletter HERE . Your name will be added to the Retreat announcement list, and you will be notified when the Retreat will begin.

Mari will mail out a few announcements each year.

Feel free to share this invitation with your friends on line or print this and share with people in your community.

Reiki Blessings and Love,

Mari

First Caribbean Reiki Gathering

The Barbados Reiki Association is organising a Gathering for Caribbean Reiki practitioners. It will be held from 29 October to 01 November at Divi Southwinds. President Kathleen Hurley says: “We know there is a lot of Reiki going on in the region. We wanted to find a way to bring Caribbean Reiki people together to share their experiences of this wonderful healing practice.”

Programme highlights will include: group treatments, meditation sessions, a featured speaker and discussions on the theme of “Unity”. “We chose Unity as our theme because it reflects our aims for the Gathering and for the future,” comments Kathleen Hurley.

She adds: “We hope to make this a regular event, so we can bring the Caribbean together in yet another area.”

Contact details: Kathleen Hurley (428-4186/828-2779); Michael Rudder (425-2506/231-1627); Rosina Wiltshire (228-0933).

Discussion: Is Reiki Flakey?

There’s an interesting post on Pamela Miles’ blog, entitled Reiki Flakey?

Here are a couple of quotes from her post:

How can we communicate Reiki in a way that communicates–that goes to people’s wants and needs and doesn’t scare them off with what looks to the public like New Age goobledygook?

It is admittedly a huge challenge to find the balance of passion and practicality that moves people to consider what we are saying. Yet when you love something as much as we love our Reiki practice, and when you see how quickly it relieves people’s suffering and reconnects them to their best selves, you can’t stop trying.

She shares her ideas on this issue in this post – and the comments are also worth a read.
