Reiki - Spiritual healing

The Japanese word reiki is derived from "rei" (universal) and "ki" (life energy). It is a spiritual healing discipline and has its roots in ancient Buddhist teachings. The founder of Reiki, Dr Mikao Usui, spent many years seeking the knowledge of healing and information on Reiki has been found in Sanskrit texts. There is no belief system attached to Reiki so anyone can receive a treatment, the only prerequisite is the desire to be healed.

Just for today do not worry,
Just for today do not anger.
Honour your parents, teachers and elders,
Earn your living honestly,
Show gratitude to every living thing.
