A new year always arrives carrying a special kind of energy - full of possibility and choice. It’s a beautiful moment to pause, listen inward, and gently choose the direction you’d like to take. Whether that means making changes, setting intentions, or simply continuing exactly as you are, trust that you already have what you need.
Through Reiki, we’re reminded that growth doesn’t have to be forced. Small shifts, honest awareness, and self-compassion can create powerful transformation over time.
As we step into this fresh chapter, remember this above all: you are already whole, capable, and amazing - just as you are.
Wishing our community a peaceful, inspired, and heart-led year ahead 💫
As we step into January, we enter a time of new beginnings, gentle intention-setting, and energetic renewal. This quieter, reflective month invites us to realign with our purpose, nurture our wellbeing, and consciously plant seeds for the year ahead.

Our Winter edition of Reiki World was released just before Christmas - and we hope it’s been a nourishing companion through the quieter days of the season.
This issue is filled with reflection, inspiration and gentle wisdom, including seasonal insights, community stories, and features that invite you to slow down, reconnect, and honour the deeper rhythms of winter.
If you haven’t had a chance to dip in yet, now is the perfect time to curl up with a warm drink and enjoy the latest edition.
Thank you, as always, for being part of our wonderful Reiki community 💜

At the Winter Solstice, we pause with the natural world at a powerful turning point.
The longest night reminds us that rest, stillness, and reflection are not pauses in our journey - they are part of it.
In Reiki, we learn to listen, to soften, and to trust the natural rhythms within and around us. As the light slowly begins to return, we’re invited to do the same - gently, in our own time.
May this moment bring you calm, clarity, and a quiet reconnection with what truly sustains you.
✨ Wishing our community a peaceful Solstice ✨

We are thrilled to invite you the second of two very special evenings with the beloved Frans Stiene - an opportunity to connect, learn, and be inspired by one of the most respected voices in Reiki.
✨ 9th December | 7:00 PM – Chanting with Frans Stiene
Raise your vibration through sound and mantra. Frans leads a transformative chanting session that opens the heart, clears the mind, and deepens your connection to Reiki’s sacred essence.
Join internationally renowned teacher Frans Stiene for a powerful and uplifting session of sacred chanting. Through traditional mantras and vibrational sound practices rooted in the lineage of Reiki, Frans guides you into a profound energetic shift.
Chanting is a beautiful way to calm the thinking mind, awaken the heart, and dissolve energetic blocks. As your voice blends with collective sound, you’ll feel your vibration lift, your energy expands, and your connection to your inner stillness deepen.
This session welcomes all — no singing ability or chanting experience required. Allow the sound to move through and around you, supporting healing, presence, and spiritual openness.
Discover the magic of Reiki chanting. Learn why Mikao Usui introduced this beautiful practice and how to chant in a way that nourishes your mind, body, and spirit.
These sessions are a rare chance to connect with Frans' warmth, wisdom, and infectious love for Reiki. Don't miss this opportunity to elevate your practice and your spirit!
Looking forward to seeing you there

Everyone (members and non-members) is welcome to join us for this relaxing session with Karen Tulloch!
Through the soothing combination of hypnotherapy and Reiki, Karen guides you to release stress and invite deep relaxation — a perfect pre-holiday reset for your mind and body.
Allow your nervous system to exhale in this calming session that blends the transformative power of hypnotherapy with the gentle, restorative flow of Reiki.
Karen creates a tranquil space where you’ll be guided into a deeply relaxed state, helping you untangle stress, quiet the mind, and release emotional tension.
As your body softens and your breath deepens, Reiki energy supports your healing from within — clearing stagnant energy, soothing the subconscious, and inviting a sense of balance and safety.
This practice is ideal for anyone feeling overwhelmed, overstimulated, or energetically depleted. You’ll emerge feeling lighter, more grounded, and gently reset — ready to move through December with more spaciousness and ease.
