I am very happy so many people are interested in learning to heal themselves and their family and friends, and I am happy to provide comprehensive training.and 'attune' and connect them to Universal Energy- enabling them everafter to channel this energy as REIKI. There are many benefits to learning Reiki- it is not only invaluable for maintaining and balancing health and energy levels, but also acts as a guide for self development and learning.

For those on level 2 or 3 training will include professional practise, ethics, working appropriately and other related disciplines and techniques.
The techniques are taught in three subsequent courses:

Reiki One attunement- for Healing the Self

Reiki Two attunement- for Helping others to Heal

Reiki Three attunement- to Develop Professional practise as a Healer

A further course and attunement of Reiki Masters is available for those who have fully mastered levels 1-3 and who are ready to become teachers and mentors themselves.

Each level of attunement is a permanent blessing that will enrich your life and enable you to take greater responsablity for your physical, spiritual and emotional well-being.
As Reiki Master I act as teacher and mentor for the student providing one-to-one training ( both practical and theoretical ),comprehensive manual,permanent attunement, certificate, as well as follow up support and advice.

Reiki Masters

2010-06-05T09:03:00.000-07:00

Reiki Masters is both a journey towards being a lifelong teacher of Reiki, and a powerful tool for aligning yourself with your higher purpose and fascilitating confident steps forward in your life.
The energy of Reiki 3/Masters has a quiet power that draws life to you.

Reiki level 3 and Reiki Masters are combined on this course, which requires a settling in period of up to one year after the attunement. During this time you will not be able to teach, but you can and should, do lots of heaing work with Mastery level energy.

Acts of compassion

2010-02-26T11:11:00.000-08:00

What is the difference between compassion and Pity? The first raises us from our worst fears and encourages us to attain new heights, the second diminishes even as it pretends to aid. Compassion is born out of Love of the other, Pity is born of Love of the self.

To Love in a real sense is to be commited to exercise compassion, to move beyond the limitations of our selfishness and help others to grow tall.Sometimes we need to say what will not be well received but we say it because the other needs to hear it. The compassionate word in the right moment has the power to help us meet ourselves again- and in that moment we are given the possiblity to transform into our better self.

Love itself is not a feeling, but an action, and to live in Love we must be brave enough to confront our fears and act with Love everyday, particuarly when we speak a truth that will wound as it pierces consciousness.

If we are fortunate enough in our lives to have someone who is able to break through our illusions about ourselves we are fortunate indeed. It is human nature to conceal our weakness and failure, how much more difficult it is to hear our truth from the lips of someone who's opinion we hold dear.
If we are loved enough to be guided to who we are, then we are truly Blessed.

Quiet time

2010-02-23T11:38:00.000-08:00

For me, as for many people, this winter has felt particuarly long & arduous.
With a busy schedule, and in a crowded city it is not always easy to relax- when what my spirit is craving is for me to STOP, slow down and take a deep breath, perversely I can find myself working more & denying myself less of the good things that nurture me- Nature, Meditation & prayer, and healthy food...

When we deny our needs in this way, the body is forced to create a health crisis just to give us some ' me' time, and then we wonder why it takes weeks rather than days to recover from the flu.

Find 10 minutes in your day to open your eyes and see all that you have and say a hearfelt 'thank you'

Love and Light

Meditation

2007-08-26T06:49:00.001-07:00

Stressed? Overworked? Confused?
In the busy, noisy world we live in Meditation is a wonderful tool to improve health, enjoy better sleep, feel less anxious and more relaxed and increase effectiveness in the workplace. Regular practise increases mental clarity and can lead to greater empowerment in decision making.

Techniques are easy to learn and the only equipment you need is a hard back chair. I teach a variety of techniques- muscle relaxation, breathing and visualisations- something to suit everyone!
These techniques are non- denominational- you do not need to be religious or spiritual to benefit from meditation.
Once learnt, Meditation is a skill that you have for life- and can help you master fear, stress and overwork, where ever you are- a Temple or a mountain top are NOT required!

Reiki Healing

2006-08-18T06:52:00.000-07:00

What is Reiki?
Reiki is a system of Energy healing developed in Japan in the 19th century- 'Rei' meaning universal and 'Ki' meaning energy. The Reiki practitioner is able to harness this universal energy, which then passes from his or her hands to the patient. Reiki is not a religious belief system and and does not ally itself with a particular dogma- rather it is a holistic and inclusive way to balance and fascilitate the patient to begin to heal. It is important to choose a practitioner you feel able to establish a good working relationship with.

Is Reiki safe?
Reiki is safe and suitable to treat a wide variety of conditions and ages and can also be effective in the treatment of pets and plants! Reiki has natural intelligence and goes where it is needed to gently rebalance and heal holistically on all levels: physical, spiritual and emotional. Reiki is being used increasingly for one reason only- it works!

Why Reiki?

Some years ago a prolonged period of chronic ill health led to me becoming interested in alternative therapies. In the course of my recovery I benefited from treatments in homeopathy, aromatherapy, herbalism, cranial sacral therapy, plant flower therapy...So it is little wonder than when I was on the path to recovery I developed an interest in holistic healing. In time I contacted the woman who is now my wonderful Reiki master with the first of many questions: 'What exactly is Reiki ?'
In 2003 I experienced Reiki Healing as a patient, which led me to taking Reiki One attunement in order that I could heal myself, and finish the journey I had begun- from debilitating illness to wellness.
This journey of self discovery led to my decision in 2004 to train to heal others( Reiki 2) -It is a decision that was made out of the wish to empower patients to heal and enjoy the blessings of good health and happiness - a decision that I have never regretted. Since then I have healed on many patients, friends and a few cats and dogs here and there(!) in Brighton and London in the UK, and in Brazil and Italy.
In 2005 I moved to Milan and started the Milan Reiki share so that English speakers interested in healing would have an opportunity to meet.

In 2007 I completed my Reiki 3, followed by Reiki Masters. I teach and attune students in Reiki as well as continuing my own work as a Holistic Healer. I use Reiki every day and I can truly say it has transformed my life.

REIKI PRINCIPLES... ( simple, beautiful ways to help you live a happier life-see which one you find the most difficult!) :-)

Just for today, I will let go of anger
Just for today, I will let go of worry
Today I will count my many blessings
Today I will do my work honestly
Today I will be kind to every living thing.

What happens in a Reiki session?

2006-08-16T04:37:00.000-07:00

Before a home visit I would suggest that the patient prepares a duvet or blankets to lie on as well as pillows and cushions. The room should be a quiet space where there won' t be disturbance and all mobiles and computers should be switched off.
After a preliminary chat to clarify any health issues, the patient lies or sits down and relaxes. The Reiki then passes from my hands and into the patient sending healing where it is most needed. There is no pressure or massage- the touch is very gentle, and often the hands do not directly touch the body. Most people find Reiki to be deeply relaxing- falling asleep is a good option!

The session lasts approximately 1 hour. It is recommended that patients allow at least one hour to relax after a session and don't drink alcahol to excess, or undertake strenuous exercise for the rest of the day. Four sessions are recommended to bring about lasting benefits

Milan Reiki meetings

2006-08-16T04:19:00.001-07:00

Meeting Sat 2oth Feb 2010 2.30-5pm

The Milan Reiki Meet is an opportunity for like-minded, friendly people to meet and share Reiki and Meditation. There are so many people here with an interest in spirituality and many more who feel their lives are missing 'something' and who are craving more insight and energy. I wanted those people to have the chance to meet.
Meetings take place in central Milan. We usually start with a meditation to gently clense ourselves of the stresses of the day, then we take it in turns to give and receive Healing. We end by sending out some distant or 'virtual' Healing to anyone we know of in need, and then out across Milan, Italy and across the world.
...And then we go home smiling :-)
