Becoming the Reiki Kid

Recently I had the good forutne to be featured in an article for Dharte.com, a wellness and lifestyle website, on my healing offerings and the work I've been doing in Okinawa these past few years. It touches on my continual discovery of Yasashii Kokoro which literally means a kind heart in Japanese. To Okinawans this is more of a way of life that’s deeply rooted in honoring and maintaining a good relationship with ones ancestors. To say I’m inspired by how this way of life cultivates emotional health and mental power is a big understatement, I live in perpetual awe! The way of Yasashii Kokoro also continues to teach me how to master the way of my own heart which I believe is a lifelong process. Learning and living Reiki in Okinawa and being taught by the culture and people (and my own spiritual connections) has felt from the beginning of my time here strangely like being Ralph Macchio’s character in The Karate Kid! I say this because I’ve only recently (after living here for years now) begun to feel the emergence of budding delight becoming one with the laundry and dishes. My hands now move swiftly but gently on their own and without meaning to I lightly smile the entire time and can’t and don’t want to be anywhere else. Definitely becoming like "a Reiki Kid" as I believe to be further guided and supported in tremendous and unimaginable ways as I continue to give Reiki sessions in-person and online in and from Okinawa.
