Reiki with Olivea, 9 St. Mark’s Place, New York, NY (2025)

11/10/2025

The magic of leaves turning into dust is just incredible. I could look at one for hours and happily get lost in it. 🍂 I’m not sure if it started from here or not, but I once took a Butoh class many, many moons ago in NYC, and the teacher asked us to move like a leaf decaying. I don’t remember how I moved, or much else about it, except that thinking about *being* a leaf was a revelation in itself. I’ve never seen leaves, or myself, the same way again. 🙃🍁❤️

Anywayyy, in the spirit of living the magic we see, and uncovering more of our own unique beauty and truth, I’ll be holding another **Meditation on the 5 Reiki Principles** this Sunday, **Nov 16th @ 8pm EST**. 🌸

It’s open to all, no Reiki training required. The first one was held last month, and I have to say, sending Reiki to our anger together was so healing. I left with a deepened sense of self-respect that felt miraculous, cleansing even. The words “our anger is just as important as our peace”were shared, and the entire hour felt like a true testament to the power and simplicity of Reiki.

I’m curious how it will be to hold it again! How would it feel to think of ourselves as Reiki, and also each other? What more is there to uncover about who we truly are? 🌕 Some food for thought. 💖

**Exchange:** $5
Kindly reach out if you’re called❣️💌

I saw this first sakura blossom yesterday! In November! The leaves were only starting to turn, like the flower jutted forth from another time no interest in following any direction at all. In every season is every season, even blossoming in the fall. #🌸

A few years ago a new Reiki 1 student asked one of the best questions anyone has ever asked. It was during an online student practice, and even though it was so simple, it’s stayed with me throughout the years.

She asked, “how do we bring the hands up to our head”?
(The top of the head is a Reiki practice position).

In the moment I answered it with a surface level answer, something about bringing the head to the hands if that’s what it took.

But I’ve realized that beneath the surface was an even deeper query that I wasn’t yet equipped to answer. What was really being asked was: “How do we believe that the effort required to do something uncomfortable and challenging is worth it? Or, how can we trust that something so simple can actually bring something divine and loving into our bodies and lives?

It was a question of belief.

The truth is no one can answer this for us. That kind of belief, or knowing, can only come from experience which comes from practice, and through allowing ourselves to be challenged.

Reiki will always challenge or ask us to grow in ways gentle and loving. But we have to literally reach out for Reiki when in need, and in a sense meet it halfway. Because sometimes that small act of reaching up/out is the very beginning of believing. 🙌💗

For anyone who’d like to learn this simple folk healing art of Reiki w/ other beautiful souls in a small student-centered setting, we’ll have one more live virtual class this year on Dec 4-8✨*The last day to register is November 1st!* Kindly reach out if interested as a new or returning student; this is going to be a realllly special one!! ✨🪩🌝

For my first classes in Okinawa I printed out the 5 Reiki Principles in Japanese for each student on little pieces of paper to hold close. I remember teaching in Japanese and feeling so challenged I wasn’t sure how I’d get through it. I asked Reiki w all my heart to please speak through me. I kept going & doing my best and then something beautiful happened: my heart opened and words I didn’t know I knew flowed through me. And I could feel each student lean in meeting me heart to heart and they didn’t pull away until their questions were fully answered. I’ll never forget their level of sincerity, dedication, and pure appreciation. Reiki taught me something so important with these first classes.. that to understand (and teach) Reiki we must only open our hearts.

About a week ago I met with one of those students and she took out her paper slightly crumpled from a little folder to keep it safe and let me know she’s been looking at it constantly over the last 5 years. I don’t know why but I almost cried. Seeing her paper reminded me of how far I’ve come too as a teacher and continued Reiki student. We had a lively discussion, again beyond language, about how the principles constantly continue to support emotional and mental healing 💖

The Reiki principles are very simple, subtle and also profound. If we let them they will help our hearts to open again and again to everything we desire to what Mikao Usui calls “inviting happiness and the miraculous medicine for all illness”.

I hope you’ll join me this evening for a very special guided mediation on the 5 Reiki Principles in a safe and dedicated healing space. I’m really looking forward to it💖

Kindly reach out if you’re called, thank you! 🙏

I was riding my bicycle down this lane and thought to stop and take a picture of the beautiful “komorebi” or the shapes of the light through the leaves … and when I looked at the photo a few days later I noticed the way the trees came together at the end to form a kind of portal through the natural world! I didn’t see it at the time💚 it was a reminder that there’s so much happening throughout time supporting us 🌈

As we enter into the changing of seasons and the gradual close of this year please continue to stay warmed and nourished🙌✨ here are a few offerings to help you stay connected to your inner peace and presence, please reach out if interested 💖

Year-end Offerings to Nourish Your Heart, Peace & Presence - https://mailchi.mp/18f3fa99a20e/year-end-offerings-to-nourish-your-heart-peace-presence

✨ New Reiki Cards + Meditation Offering ✨

These are my new Reiki cards, a creation that took me as many years as I’ve been here in Okinawa to design and finally bring to life. 💫

I’d hoped to gift them to everyone this summer, but between printing and shipping delays, they only arrived right before I left NYC to return home to Okinawa! 😭🌍

We each have our own understanding of Reiki, and every one is true, because it arises from your own practice, heart, and lived experience.

What began as a simple logo design (just two concentric circles) slowly evolved into something much more, a small piece of art. ✨ The circles became a sun, and its rays bloomed into watercolor flowers of Okinawa: bright, alive, and full of color.

For me, this design holds both my core and my expression, as a Reiki Master and as myself, Olivea. Someone who finds grounding in light and beauty, and gentle yet intentional expression. 🌸 It’s also an ode to Okinawa, a land that continually teaches me peace, and how to live it in my body and mind.

It’s here that The 5 Reiki Principles have made the deepest impact on my daily life, guiding my own healing and understanding of what it means to live from peace.

🕊️ This month, on Sunday, October 19th at 8pm EST, I’ll be offering a 1-hour guided meditation on The 5 Reiki Principles, the very teachings Mikao Usui called “the secret art of inviting happiness and the miraculous medicine of all diseases”.

We’ll recite and meditate on each principle, allowing its wisdom to gently seep into our hearts and lives, and notice what it reveals, all in a safe and loving space. Reiki training is not required.

🌞 Exchange: $5 💌 A link will be sent upon receiving payment. I hope you’ll join us.

With love, O ✨

Hi Beautiful Souls, Happy September!

I just wanted to share this packaging from a bag of chocolate/herby dates I found after receiving a Reiki session the other day☺️✨ I was completely swayed by the packaging thinking “anyone who puts ‘LOVE’ in all caps as an ingredient is my people” and then swiftly made the purchase 🤗❤️

I receive so much love daily here in Okinawa, from nature, kind hearted people, water, food, Reiki, and now these chocolatey dates 😋 that I’d be remiss if I wasn’t eager to share right back (only the Reiki option sorry!)☺️❣️

I have a few spots still available this month for Daily Reiki, anywhere from 1 to 14 days. This is a beautiful option if you’d like energetic support but don’t have the space in your schedule for a full session. I first created Daily Reiki many years ago sending it to clients post sessions, and sending them Reiki for 3 days made such a difference it led to me offering on its own. Since then clients have been receiving it daily for travel, important procedures, interviews, birthdays, health challenges, and even as a gift for loved ones.

Daily Reiki basically opens a space for you to receive universes’ love consistently, for consecutive days✨🥰✨ I can’t explain what it does specifically as it’s unique for each person, but what I notice is how their energy field grows steadier and stronger, more radiant and clear with each day. Simply, it’s a beautiful, simple, and ease-y way to receive Love 🌈✨✨✨

I don’t really share this a whole lot, but for some reason I’m being called to share here now.. so if your heart is tugging at this maybe it’s for you?✨Like I mentioned I have a couple spots for September so kindly reach out if you’re interested in receiving or gifting Daily Reiki this month🙏💖

With love,
O

All seasons are for love, but summertime especially is for LOVE! 🌞💍✨

It was the honor of a lifetime to officiate this dreamy dream forest wedding for these two perfect souls. I’ll never forget the months of preparing together over Zoom weaving Reiki and healing conversations into the process and dreaming up magical touches and possibilities for the ceremony. It was pure joy🤩

Personally, this experience gave me something even deeper: a chance to connect with my father’s Jewish heritage (and my own) by finding ways to bring time-honored traditions into a modern ceremony. For that, I’m endlessly grateful. 🙏🤍

One of my favorite moments was guiding the guests through a meditation and journey where we gently connected with the trees and sky surrounding us, all sending love to the bride and groom, while also receiving what we each needed. Simply magical 🌿💫

Thank you for letting me marry you in the magical forest across the world/universe! 🕊️🙌✨What. A. Blessing. And. Dream. IT. Remains. Divine Love for all 🤗🌈🌳💖✨✨✨

Feeling proud to finally share my interview with Brainz Magazine! It took nearly a year to complete, and I’m so happy it’s out at last and that I can share a little more of my story. 🙏💗

There was one question from the interview I didn’t answer at the time: What is your greatest accomplishment in your career?

I could have said being a full-time healer for 9+years, or being able to do what I love on my own terms. But when I really reflected, I realized that my greatest accomplishment isn’t a single milestone but more of a way of being.

My greatest accomplishment is remaining sweet, and becoming sweeter. ✨

In a world that can feel harsh and hostile, choosing sweetness is not always easy. For me, it’s been a constant practice of softening where I tend to get too serious, surrounding myself with people who make me laugh, and exploring how I can be more generous and loving with those around me.

Each day, I try to offer my clients, students, and loved ones the sweetness of presence, care, and joy. Because sweetness is not weakness it’s resilience, medicine, and one of the greatest gifts we can give, and receive too!

Life is meant to be sweet! ✨🥰🍦✨
