The Summer is finally drawing to a close and the first event of the Autumn is the Takata archives which are being held in Birmingham. These were originally shown in London in the Spring and are a fascinating insight into Hawayo Takata and her journey into bringing Reiki to the West in the 1930’s. There are still places left so book now.

Council is supporting the St George’s project, and now there is another chance for Reiki practitioners to become involved with the NHS. The project is for the North London Hospice and if you are interested in helping there are details on my page once you have logged in.

This month’s webinar is about setting fees for Reiki treatments and is a thorny issue for most practitioners. If you have any thoughts or comments on this subject, head on over to the forum and join in with the debate.

Diary dates:

Webinar 2^nd October - Setting Fees for Reiki Treatments with Kate Jones.

Webinar 6^th November - "Following a tragedy - Bringing Reiki to the frontline " with Georgina Hood.

Council meeting 6^th to 8^th November 2018

As I write I am aware that the Gathering will be opening in a few weeks. There are still a few places left but hurry as registration closes on 26^th April. It is a brilliant way to get together in community each year. We meet up with friends old and new and generally have a great time together. This year we have Marta Getty as a speaker and it is a privilege to hear stories from one of the elders of our community.

There are other ways of being in community, and circles and shares are some of the other ways. Next month the webinar is on the topic of Reiki shares. If you have never been to one, I urge you to think of holding one in your area. You don’t need to be a Master, just someone who loves Reiki. I started holding Reiki shares when I was a new Reiki person. I still hold shares many years later. Join us at the webinar to find out how you can set up a sharing group.

Council has had a busy year with a lot of new initiatives and it looks like being the same next year too.

Council is looking for three new members this year so if you can give some time to help in the running of our association, we would be pleased to have you step up at the General Meeting on the Sunday morning at Bucklands Hall.
