"What do you get from Reiki?" ~ "Peace"
“What do you get from Reiki treatment?” – “Peace.” One word can say a lot, don’t you think? With Reiki, many clients experience deep states of relaxation, the type of brain frequency that seasoned meditators achieve with years of practice. In the words of a medical doctor commenting on a well-known Reiki blog: “Reiki brings the benefits of meditation to people who cannot sit still by themselves”. (more…)

In Jikiden Reiki, we teach a special technique used only for First Aid: cuts, grazes, bruises, sprains and even burns. It works beautifully and tends to get fast, clean healing results. The bleeding stops more quickly, and sometimes you can literally watch the blood congeal and a crust form in front of your eyes. It’s as if watching the healing process through a time-lapse camera. As a mother, I have plenty of personal experience here using Reiki to deal with the countless scrapes and grazes that come with early childhood. (more…)

Frequently, people ask me how I got into Reiki. Well, how did I get into Reiki? I ask myself the same question, knowing that as a young academic 20 years ago I most certainly would not have had any time for concepts such as ‘chi’, or energy healing. (more…)

“I have come home feeling very strongly that I have the tools to vastly improve my life and the lives of those around me, and it is a huge positive for me. Thank you very, very much.”

Having experienced the countless benefits for myself and for my family many times, I am passionate about bringing Reiki well-being to you: through treatments in my clinics or through passing on this down-to-earth natural healing method in my courses. Jikiden Reiki is so simple that anyone can learn how to practise it, yet it offers invaluable tools for returning to or maintaining good health.
“Wow, I feel so much lighter now.”
Other than relaxation, this is the most frequent initial treatment outcome I hear about. Jikiden Reiki treatment offers a wonderful way of not only melting away stress and tension, but also bit by bit helping to release our emotional baggage, in many cases without ever even needing to talk about it.
And of course, Jikiden Reiki treatment can be used to aid numerous physical conditions, as this simple natural healing method stimulates your body’s innate healing response and promotes overall balance and resilience. So it’s a great tool for preventive healthcare, too!
And the method is so simple that anyone can learn how to do this.
Jikiden Reiki training is comprehensive and with a down-to-earth focus on treatment. The method is taught in the same way it was originally practised in Japan without fashionable New Age add-ons and with its cultural and spiritual core intact. Only since 2000 has it finally been possible for Westerners to tap into the Japanese roots of this popular healing practice, and I am currently the only fully qualified teacher in Scotland.
Why Jikiden Reiki?
Jikiden Reiki makes a strong effort to keep practice and teaching as faithful as possible to the original methods taught by Mikao Usui and Chujiro Hayashi. Jikiden Reiki is pure and simple, using a clear framework for how to use Reiki in the most effective way to enhance the body’s natural healing systems.

Tadao Yamaguchi, Head of the Jikiden Reiki Institute in Kyoto
Tadao Yamaguchi, regarded by many
as the leading authority on Reiki
today, will be coming over from Japan
to Scotland in July. Mr Yamaguchi has not
seen many doctors in his life. There were no
creams or pills or bandages in the
Yamaguchi household at all. His mother
Chiyoko had regularly experienced the efficacy
of Reiki as a treatment method not only for
common ailments, but also for injuries and
more serious health conditions from an early
age, and learned how to practise Reiki from
Dr. Hayashi, a medical doctor and Captain in
the Japanese Navy, when she was only 17.

Christmas can be a challenge for me. Or at least it has been in the last few years. Since the children have stopped believing in Santa, the festive season has lost its magic. I used to feel guilty at telling them a fairy tale, but at least it wasn’t just catalogues and shopping lists. I struggle with the materialism, kitsch, noise, stress, excess & meaningless ritual that I associate with this time of year, and every time I have to make a tremendous effort to overcome my resistance and come to a place of peace.
