Please take a minute to read the details about a bill in the NJ Assembly requiring a license to practice Reiki professionally. Details will help you to better understand the bill and what actions you can take to oppose it. Immediate action could thwart the attempt from moving forward.

New Jersey has a bill in the Assembly that's a first step toward licensing Reiki practice, a disturbing trend we've seen in many states.

Let's nip this in the bud. Read details and what simple actions you can take to educate your elected officials why licensing Reiki is a bad idea, and how many of their constituents oppose it. https://reikiinmedicine.org/communicating-reiki/protect-new-jersey-reiki-now/

Be a friend, tell a friend.

Remember, your elected officials work for you and care what you think. Just be sure to be respectful of their time and express your views in a way that makes sense from their perspective, talking about how much it helps you rather than going into "Reiki energy," which risks your credibility (from their perspective).

Last year, a robust response from the diverse Massachusetts Reiki community halted (at least for now) that state's 5th attempt at licensing for Reiki and other non-invasive holistic practices. The Attorney General who spearheaded the effort is now the governor.

A paramedic fired for honoring the patient's choice of treatment?

The patient refused conventional treatment, but consented to a Reiki treatment when offered by the paramedic based on her beliefs in holistic medicine. The paramedic was terminated by the healthcare system claiming his "clinical judgement was questionable."

From a patient standpoint, if treatment was refused twice, ethically, I would expect caregivers to be respectful of that decision and comply.

EGG HARBOR TOWNSHIP — A former paramedic is taking AtlantiCare to court next month alleging wrongful termination after a patient under his care refused traditional treatment and he practiced holistic

This is a good read for those interested in sharing Reiki with animals. A couple of points that stand out that I don't have the same understanding as Kathleen Prasad; in sharing Reiki with others that it involves therapy touch when working with people and meditation in working with animals.

In my 10 years of practice, I have shared Reiki with others without touch, by placing my hands above the individual. The recipient of the session typically has a response to the session just as those that have had a session with light touch. In working with animals, if possible and safe, I also place my hands directly on the animal or I will offer distant Reiki, a practice that does not require touch or the animal to be present for the session. I generally do not meditate when offering Reiki as to be present and aware of the person or animal that I am working with.

What has been your experience when practicing Reiki with animals?

How meditating with animals helps us find healing, even in difficult situations.
