A precious human life
Every day, think
as you wake up, today I am fortunate to have woken up, I am alive, I have a precious life, I am not going to waste it, I am
going to use all my energies to develop myself to expand my heart out to others, I am going to have kind thoughts towards
others...I am not going to think badly about others. I am going to benefit others as much as I can.
The XIV Dalai Lama

Reiki is a spiritual and therapeutic healing
practice, a hands-on Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that promotes healing, helping us to
balance ourselves physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually.
The word Reiki
comes from two Japanese words: Rei -something mysterious, miraculous, and sacred-and Ki -the energy of the universe. So the
Japanese words Reiki can be defined as a miraculous and sacred energy of the universe, which sustains all life.
Reiki can be complementary to other therapies, improving the results of any medical treatment, acting
to reduce negative side effects, such as those from chemotherapy, surgery and invasive procedures.
Reiki has also been used in conjunction with psychotherapy to improve the healing of emotional trauma, depression, stress
and other issues.
