print email

Are you interested in natural healing methods? What if you could learn a simple healing technique for healing yourself and your loved ones, including your pets? Reiki is a safe, gentle way of healing on all levels – mind, body, emotions and spirit.


Reiki is a natural form of energy healing that uses universal life force energy to reduce stress, balance the body, provide deep relaxation and promote health and healing. Treatments can be given in person via laying on of hands or sent long distance.

The word Reiki is composed of two Japanese words, Rei which means spiritually guided or divinely guided and Ki which means life force energy. Reiki is spiritually guided life force energy.

Reiki works on the subtle energy system restoring the flow of life force energy through the body. It opens blocked meridians and chakras allowing one’s own life force energy to flow in a natural, healthy way. It also charges the energy system with positive energy and raises the vibration of the energy field in and around the physical body.

Reiki has many benefits such as relieving pain, strengthening the immune system, speeding up the healing/recovery process and expanding awareness.

Reiki also compliments any medical procedure and won’t interfere with medications. Many hospitals are offering Reiki for their patients. It is even being used before, during, and after surgery. Reiki relaxes patients, accelerates recovery from surgery, reduces side effects from medication and medical procedures, improves patient sleep and reduces anxiety.

Reiki is easy to learn and can be used by anyone. You can give a full treatment or simply target a specific area of the body that needs healing. Children love Reiki as well as adults. Once you are attuned to Reiki you have it for the rest of your life.

With all that is gong on with health care these days isn’t it encouraging to know that the power to facilitate healing can literally be in your own hands?

When you understand the true nature of cancer then you must understand that there must be an acceptance of the disease on the part of the individual. The individual permits the acceptance of this and every disease for their own personal reasons. The determination that the personality will experience cancer is made by the inner logic system of the mind. This inner logic system is that portion of your mind that selects from all available courses of action the alternative that best meets the needs of the personality. Most often this is the same portion of the mind that determines how and when ...

Mother Earth (Gaia) through Pepper Lewis Dear Mother Earth, My last few years have been full of growth opportunities and spiritual development. I can really see how far I have come and how much I have grown. But I cannot seem to manifest loving personal relationships or even understand them. I have never felt real love from my parents or from any other relationship I have ever had. I feel powerless about this and am now wondering if what I call true love even exists here on Earth. Is it possible for me to give, receive and experience love in its truest sense? Indeed it is. But perhaps it ...

We’ve all heard a great deal about the health care crisis over the past few years. However, no one seems to be talking about the real cause – our poor health and the lifestyle choices that force us into emergency rooms so that they are overwhelmed. According to the National Center for Health Statistics (Reuters, 1/9/2009), 34% of Americans are obese and 32.7% are overweight. Combined with the fact that heart disease and cancer have been linked to poor eating habits and high stress levels, Americans are likely to have increasing needs for emergency-level health care and overpriced ...

Purpose for Energy Breathing This is the same type of breathing as used in martial arts, Qi Gong (pronounced Chee Gong), Tai Chi (pronounced Tie Chee), plus other energy healing modalities. The theory behind energy breathing is that it improves delivery of oxygen and nutrients, plus accelerates the removal of toxins from the tissues, enabling the liver and kidneys to strengthen and to become more efficient, which results in improved health and resistance to disease. It also energizes you, plus temporarily expands your aura (energy field) by 2 metres or more. Steps to Energy Breathing (Daily ...
