What is Reiki? Can it be answered.?

This is a question that is asked a lot. Actually, I am still surprised how much. But I still answer with the same statement. It is a high vibrational white light energy. I then go on to explain. Reiki can be used in many ways and basically relieves the stress in a physical body so it can then heal.  To that I usually get a deer in the headlight stare. It is a hard concept to absorb. Relieve stress and the body can heal? Yes Stress can take many forms and manifest in many ways. So how can a person place their hands on someone and have healing occur. A bit blasphemous? Really though, because Reiki is such a miraculous gift it is best experienced. That is why I often offer possible students a 15 min session. Or I host what I like to call Reiki 101. A workshop where I explain Reiki, answer questions and attune attendees to the energy that lasts approx. 24 -48 hrs. I then have each person receive and give reiki. It is always an amazing treat to see the joy of that first Reiki exper...

Reiki & the "A's", Learning the Hokey Pokey

Reiki and the type A personality I am writing on this subject for two reasons. First as a type A personality, I felt that my experience with all the challenges of relaxing and accepting that needs to happen with Reiki and energy healing techniques, I could pass a few tips your way.

Type A personalities are competitive, outgoing, ambitious and yes can be aggressive. When was the last time you made a decision to do something because it was right for you, You, not your spouse, kids, family or career? You are the most important person in this world. The sooner you believe that the better off you will be. The other thing that sets type A apart is, they also have a higher incident of heart disease. Yup that’s right so go work hard be ambitious, and outgoing, but now lets add in a little self-ca...

Leadership, The Art of Pissing People Off

Leadership is an art and those that do it best piss a lot of people off. It can’t be helped. If you like playing nice then stay put as an employee or better yet stay home and let the government take care of you. There is no trophy for everyone in business. There is no participation awards. If you can’t play and play well then sorry you are going to sit on the bench. Now I will make a side not to that, you don’t have to hit that ball every time you are up to bat. No but you do have to get to bat and you must swing. After a while you will develop some skill that will at least get that ball in the air and hopefully you to base. Let’s talk about pissing people off. Sometimes I love it, especially that old fart that thinks they know everything. Of course, that is feeding my own ego, but hey it keeps me swinging.  Some people will say management starts in the boardroom, but actually it starts the day you first shit your pants. Seriously you just accomplished your first task of...
