Reiki is a wonderful tool for improving the quality of your life. You can dip into it with the odd session to aid relaxation. If you’re more serious about it, you can learn how to give yourself and those around you Reiki. That, for some, leads to further study and a a life built around Reiki.

Just for today I will not worry

Just for today I will be grateful for all that I have

Just for today I will work hard at all that I do

Just for today I will be kind to all living things
