Usui Reiki, as a modality and an art-form, has long been associated with healing and spiritual development. From the earliest traditions of Usui Sensei, there is a deep-rooted mission for nurturing ourselves and others through enlightenment. This was honed further into a practice that focused more on holistic healing, and was eventually packaged and branded […]
According to ancient Ki Lore, Kekki and Shioke are the basis for all things in the solid world; yet these two different facets of Ki are bound to each other eternally.

Mizuke, the Ki of Water, is the catalyst for communication and enables the combination of Kekki and Shioke to form complex structures. Mizuke is expansion, reproduction and growth, as in this trinity of Ki facets, it continually strives to further itself and produce a greater scale of life and physical being. The tenacity of Mizuke […]

The facet of Ki known as Denki, the Ki of Thunder, is a powerful force that is somewhat misleading inasmuch as it is the lightning that Denki symbolises, as opposed to thunder. The term Denki translates directly to our concept of electricity and is thus a potent form of Ki that manifests itself in the […]
Making an Impact Imagine your life a stroll along a magnificent beach… As the sun is glimpsed over the horizon, there is an air of expectancy at all the wonders to come. Then follows the vibrant power of the morning waves. The refreshing and warming heat of midday, where the waves crash upon the sand […]
In Reiki Mastery, we focus upon the nature of the Intelligent Force (Reiki) to glean a real appreciation for holism and how it benefits us as people. According to Shinto traditions, the Divine has an over-arcing strategy of ultimate wisdom and it is this which creates life purpose and therefore, life itself. It is the […]
