Reiki and Drumming
by Michael Baird and Laurelle Shanti Gaia
The more we immerse ourselves in Reiki energy and it becomes a part of our daily life, the more we learn about Reiki’s limitless healing potential.
In our beginning Reiki training many of us are taught that Reiki is a stress-reduction and relaxation technique. We learn that it is used in “hands-on” healing. We learn that Reiki can help to heal physical, mental, and emotional issues. Once we begin using Reiki regularly, we soon learn that the energy is truly a teacher. Some would say the Master teacher.
Our experience of Reiki is that it IS Divine healing Love. There is no time, place, or situation where Reiki is not appropriate, because Divine Love can only enhance our experiences.
Today Reiki is combined with western medical practices in surgical procedures and during cancer therapy. Reiki is often included in massage and bodywork sessions. Many chiropractors and dentists use Reiki, and the list goes on and on. Truly, Reiki can become a part of your daily activities or vocation.
When someone with a passion for drumming, like Michael, began to share his life with Laurelle, who has a passion for Reiki, it would seem that combining Reiki and drumming would have easily occurred to us. However, it didn’t happen quite that way. As Reiki often does, the energy guided us to what has unfolded into a powerful healing method, and much more.
At the International Reiki Retreat, Labor Day Weekend in 1999, Michael was invited to join two other drummers in providing healing drumming sessions for the retreat participants. From that one event grew the beginning of our experience with Reiki drumming. While drumming for those sessions, Michael was able to first experience healing drumming without Reiki and then during the second night’s drumming sessions combined healing drumming with Reiki.
He learned to first prepare himself and strengthen his light with Reiki before picking up the drum. Then he would prepare the drum by charging it as a Reiki healing instrument with the use of all the sacred Reiki symbols. Finally, as he drummed over each person he would visualize the energy of a Reiki symbol moving from his hands and through the drum to the person under the drum.
The intention was for Reiki’s energy to ride on the drum’s sound waves, and for Reiki to help the person under the drum heal in a way that was for the highest and greatest good for all. This allowed the infinite intelligence of Reiki to facilitate healing without the possibility of harm.
That weekend we learned the value of combining Reiki with drumming. We were reminded of the importance of combining Reiki’s Love in all we do.
Since that time, the Reiki energy, the spirit of many drums, the guides, angels, and spirit helpers have taught us much more about powerful new ways to incorporate Reiki with drumming and other forms of sound. We are learning how to facilitate deeper and more profound healing experiences.
The concept of sound and healing is not a new one. In the Reiki Chants booklet contained in his new kotodama CD with the same name, sound healing pioneer Jonathan Goldman states:
If we explore various spiritual paths on this planet, you will find a commonality in their understanding that the first basic creative force was sound. In the New Testament it is written: “In the Beginning was the Word!” The Old Testament tells us: “And the Lord said: ‘Let there be Light!’ . . . the act of sound creating light. In the Hopi traditions, the Spider Woman sings the song of creation over the inanimate forms on this planet, bringing life to them. From the Vedic tradition it is written: “In the Beginning was Brahman, with whom was the Word and the Word was Brahman.” The idea of sound as the principle creative energy is almost universal. Sound creates form.
If you are interested in exploring your ability to heal and manifest with sound, drumming is one good place to start. Absolutely everyone has the talent and ability to drum. Your beat may be different, but it is your very own unique beat. Your beat is neither wrong nor right. It is an expression of your being that is perfect in its wholeness and completion.
Like you, a drum is a sacred healing tool with a unique spirit. The spirit of your drum can often be sensed while it is being played. It is also possible to journey to meet the spirit of your drum. As you drum you may become aware of other sounds contained within the drumming, as if it is connecting to another dimension.
In shamanism, the drum is known as “the shaman’s horse,” as it allows the shaman to “ride” the sound waves created by the drum into another dimension to help a person heal. When combining Reiki with drumming, the Divine wisdom inherent in Reiki energy merges with the sound waves and carries the Reiki energy more deeply into the client at the same time it creates a safe and sacred environment for healing.
What Is Reiki Drumming?
Reiki drumming is a specialized method of healing that makes use of the sound waves from the drum to introduce Reiki energy more deeply into a client’s energy field to facilitate deep relaxation and stress relief. As stress is relieved, tensions in the physical body are often released as well. Biofeedback research indicates that even brief heartbeat drumming can double light meditative brainwaves (alpha) and reduce stress. We now know that stress depresses the immune system and has been linked to nearly all diseases.

Reiki practitioners around the world are beginning to combine Reiki and drumming. |
Reiki drumming affects the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual bodies simultaneously, helping to bring them into harmony while raising the vibratory rate to levels that may allow the body to accelerate its innate healing abilities. Drumming reminds our body of its ideal vibratory rate, which is in harmony with the pulse of the earth and the Universal flow of creation.
Reiki drumming can enhance the power of distant Reiki, or help to send Reiki through time, as well as to strengthen the vibration of the peace ray on the planet, while assisting in harmonizing our human consciousness with the Earth.
We connect directly with the Heart and the Mind of the Divine when we access Reiki energy. Drumming is also a way to align with the Divine, as has been experienced since ancient times, through native spiritual and shamanic healing practices. When the two are combined, the result is an enhanced healing experience.
Swiss scientist Dr. Hans Jenny demonstrated how various substances such as sand, plastics, and liquid would take on a particular shape and form when various sound waves were passed through them. These experiments indicate that sound has the ability to affect and change matter.
In addition, sound can only be created by and travel through a material substance such as a solid, liquid, or gas, but cannot travel through a vacuum. Sound travels though different materials at different speeds, traveling through water at about 1500 meters per second, iron at about 5100 meters per second, and much slower through air at about 340 meters per second.

Drumming the sacred directions. |
Striking any material will cause it to vibrate, and this can have an effect on nearby objects by creating a sympathetic response. When a drum is played, the drumhead will vibrate causing the nearby molecules of air to vibrate. The vibrating molecules of air will strike other nearby molecules of air and continue on. This is known as a sound wave. This wave will continue and pass through the client you are drumming for, causing the molecules composing their body to sympathetically respond with vibration. When done with a therapeutic intention, the vibration produced will be healthy and will displace any vibrations of disease, which may be present in the client.
The ability to feel Reiki is part of our Divine inheritance. After Reiki drumming many people experience an increased sensitivity to vibration and many who have not had the awareness of feeling Reiki’s energy are able to begin feeling it. We suspect there is a simple explanation for this. Could it be that after feeling the low frequencies of drumming mixed with what may be the high frequencies of Reiki the person has had a direct experience of what healing energy feels like? After having had such an experience are we then able to detect frequencies higher than the frequency of the drum’s sound and actually feel the healing energy of Reiki by itself? Based on our experiences the answer to both questions is yes.
Science has yet to develop devices to measure Reiki’s frequency, but we need to be patient. It was just a few decades ago that radio waves were just the idea of an eccentric thinker. With all of the amazing advancements of science we will likely one day soon have an electronic device that will measure what we all can already feel.
Medical Research
A medical research study indicates that group drumming enhances the functioning of the immune system. Published in the January 2001, issue of Larry Dossey’s Alternative Therapies, the ground-breaking study was performed by a team of MDs using control groups and blood tests.
Led by well-known researcher, author, and cancer expert Barry Bittman, MD, who is the CEO of Meadville Medical Center’s Mind-Body Wellness Center in Meadville, PA, the study shows that group drumming actually increases cancer-killing (NK) cells, which help the body combat not only cancer but also viruses including AIDS.
According to Dr. Bittman, “Group drumming tunes our biology, orchestrates our immunity, and enables healing to begin . . . When our hands connect with a drum that vibrates with our energy, vitality . . . and unity, we become whole again.” Dr. Bittman’s weekly radio program, Mind-Body Matters, is syndicated nationwide on NPR. For more on Dr. Bittman, visit www.mind-body.org/bittman.html
Drumming has also been used successfully with Alzheimer’s patients to focus attention, with war veterans to end trauma, with addicts in recovery from drug and alcohol abuse, and with prison and homeless populations to enhance self-esteem. Progressive corporations like Motorola, AT&T, and Levi-Strauss have drummed with middle management to promote team-spirit building.
Widely published research also indicates that playing musical instruments increases children’s learning abilities. This appears especially true of those instruments that can be played intuitively like the drum. Studies indicate that drumming enhances right-brain functions such as intuition and creativity.
James Gordon, MD, of the Center for Mind-Body Medicine in Washington D.C. states “Oncologists should be open to group drumming if their patients are interested in it. Drumming can put people in a state of relaxation. It was used as a healing technique 1,000 years ago. Why not now?” (MAMM Magazine, July/August, 2001)
Noel John M. Carrasco, MD, has the following to say about Reiki and therapeutic drumming:
As a medical doctor, with a focus on blending complementary and holistic modalities with allopathic medicine, I incorporate Reiki into my practice.
Over the past year I have become an Usui Tibetan, and a Karuna Reiki® Master, as well as a practitioner of Reiki drumming and Reiki Crystal Healing through the ICRT and Infinite Light Healing Studies Center in Sedona.
In Reiki drumming, I find that the drum acts as liaison between the drummer and Reiki energy. It swiftly brings about a deep sense of relaxation.
One of my patients is a gentleman in his sixties who is in the process of healing from prostate cancer that has metastasized. He is also a scientist and is participating in traditional allopathic treatment as well as complementary therapies.
I have been able to incorporate Reiki drumming into his healing sessions with encouraging and intriguing results.
The drumbeat has a quickening effect, which helps direct the intent, ceremoniously calling us (practitioner and patient) to focus our attention. This patient has gone through chemotherapy and other aggressive treatments, which has placed extreme stress on his body. During our first Reiki drumming session, I observed him deeply relax for the first time since we had been working together. He seemed to experience deep emotional release, and as he did so, he relaxed even more.
He responded well physiologically also. First he had an awareness of a decrease in the pain he was experiencing, and he had noticeably more energy after each session. He also reported being able to sleep better. Clinical results indicated that some of his marker levels decreased, suggesting a health improvement as a result of his full treatment program.
Through combining Reiki and drumming, we are blending two specific frequencies, that of Reiki and that of sound. This brings about entrainment of consciousness and the heartbeat, both of which often become synchronized with the beat of the drum. The rhythm appears to move through the emotion and the intellect, connecting us with our natural rhythm, our spirit. This experience often enables the body to come into contact with its own innate ability to heal.
The sound of the drum becomes a carrier of the Reiki energy. This method assists in focusing attention into areas of awareness that are difficult to reach in normal consciousness. This allows the patient to feel the energy somatically. It is as if one is “hearing” with the entire body at the systemic and cellular level.
Drumming with Reiki connects with us deeply, bringing about an entrainment on all levels of being—physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual.
Reiki drumming is an additional tool that allows me to assist my patients as they learn to connect with and activate their inner healing power.
Joan Hoffman, Reiki Master and talk therapist, uses Reiki drumming in her practice:
When I receive a Reiki drumming session from another or myself, I feel I can revisit previous situations in my life where I felt “stuck.” There is a soothing element, which comes into play when I can feel the vibration, the rhythm, and the beat of the drum being guided into my physical being. A sense of safety accompanies me when I hear the rhythmic drum beat in the distance as I work through the feelings and memories I am exploring. This constant rhythm has the ability to center me quickly and painlessly in each moment. Yet, at the same time, a sense of endurance prevails as the drumbeat keeps me moving forward in a steady manner.
When I become the Reiki drummer, I am often amazed at how quickly the drumming creates a sense of sacred space and purpose in the most mundane places. This, in turn, facilitates an instant connection to the drum and the type of healing the client needs. I am a counselor trained in “talk therapy,” and I find that others surrender and trust this process with very little preparation, which is gratifying. Clients benefit most from the self-discovery that takes place during the drumming session. Some of their responses and stories of how they are being healed have created a sense of marvel at how brilliant Reiki drumming can be. Reiki drumming is a very powerful tool for transformation. I’ve experienced it both as a receiver and a practitioner, and I know it works.
As medical research is beginning to validate much of what the ancients have known, Reiki practitioners around the world are beginning to combine Reiki and drumming.
Drumming is for anyone who was ever told they were not musical, or who has ever felt they are not talented enough. Drumming is for anyone who has ever been silenced by another. Drumming is for anyone who wants to feel healthier, stronger, and more alive.
Drumming has been practiced throughout the ages. It is an excellent vehicle for creative expression, while simultaneously relieving stress through movement and improving one’s mental clarity and emotional and physical state.
Reiki Drumming Session
The following are instructions for a basic Reiki drumming session, which can be done by itself or as part of a regular Reiki session. A hoop drum is used in this session with the client lying on a massage table or on the floor or earth, but it’s also possible for the client to be seated in a chair. This can be a general session for healing and relaxation or it could focus on healing a specific issue.
1) Client Preparation
Ask your client to relax and take a deep breath. Ask them to focus on being willing to let go of all that isn’t healthy and to be deeply healed. Also ask them to focus on being grateful for the gift of healing they are about to receive. If they have a specific issue, ask them to explain what it is.
2) Drummer Preparation
Draw or visualize a large CKR over your entire body, and also on each chakra starting at the base and moving toward the crown. Intend that your chakras are aligned, clear, and open to the full power of the Reiki healing energy. Hold the intention that your light is being strengthened, and that any denser energy that is released during this session will be healed and not absorbed by your energy system.
3) Drum Preparation
Draw all the Reiki symbols that you know over your drum with your mallet, and with each symbol, channel the energy into the drum. Alternatively, use those symbols you’re guided to use for the client. Hold the intention that the frequency of the energy contained within each symbol will flow out on [of?]the drum as you beat it.
4) Space Preparation
Draw a CKR in all seven directions, NSEW as well as the sky and the earth and the center of the space.
5) Prayer of Intention
Call on your guides, or pray to God, the Higher Power or any other Divine energy you or your client chooses to work with. Ask that the drum and its voice be charged with healing power and that the client be deeply healed. If you’re working on a specific condition pray that this condition be healed as well. Give thanks for all the Love and healing and blessings that are about to flow.
6) Reiki Drumming
Hold the drum from the back with the open side of the drum facing the client and keeping the drum at least six inches or more away, allowing your intuition to guide you to the right height (which could vary during the session). Begin drumming at the head with soft rhythmic beats and slowly work your way down. As you continue also allow yourself to be guided in terms of the rhythm and intensity of the sound. Remember to focus on Reiki energy with the intention that it is combining with the vibration of the drum and flowing to the client. Continue moving slowly down to the feet, stopping at any areas that seem to need more healing and staying there until the area is cleared. Continue as long as you are guided to do so, but also staying within your allotted time frame.
Specific Issue
If the client has indicated a special issue to be healed, you may be guided to the right areas for the issue during your drumming session, or you could also use Reiji ho or byÛsen scanning to determine the best area(s) to treat the specific issue. When the area has been found, use your intuition to decide the right height, rhythm, intensity, and duration.
Affirmations
If the client has a specific issue, the use of affirmations can also be helpful. “I AM” statements are powerful as they activate the client’s Godself. Before you begin drumming, ask the client to repeat these statements three times with the emphasis on the “I AM.” “I AM ready and willing to release (state issue) completely now and forever.” And, “I AM ready and willing to make any and all changes necessary to complete this healing.” Congratulate the client for a job well done. Other affirmations can also be formulated and stated before the drumming or during the drumming.
7) Client Integration
When you feel guided to stop, put your drum down and begin to beam Reiki into your client’s energy field to help them integrate the changes that have taken place during the healing session. We have found CKR, or DKM, or Rama from Karuna Reiki® to be helpful for integration.
8) Closing and Offering Gratitude
Give a prayer of thanks for the healing to the Divine, the guides, and angels and the spirit of the drum. Then draw a CKR over the client to seal the healing energies in with Love and with light. We use a final closing prayer by saying three times, “We seal this healing with Love and light” and then saying, “So It Is, Blessed Be, Amen.” You can use any other prayer or closing statement that you feel is appropriate.
Standing Reiki Drumming Session
This is a simple technique designed to give an overall toning and healing effect. However, this technique can also be used to heal specific issues using the instructions for this from above. Using hoop drums, have one drummer stand behind the client and another in front. The drummers hold the drum from the back with the back of the drum facing the client so the drum is beat toward the client. This technique can also be done with one drummer going up one side, then down the other.
1) Client Preparation
Ask your client to stand with their knees just very slightly bent, and their feet just a little more then shoulder-width apart. Then ask that they close their eyes, take in a deep breath, and let it out slowly and relax. Ask them to focus on being willing to let go of all that isn’t healthy and to be deeply healed. Also ask them to focus on being grateful for the gift of healing they are about to receive.
2—5) Follow steps 2—5 in previous instructions
6) Drumming
Begin with both drummers starting at the bottom and drumming together. As you drum, think of Reiki and imagine it flowing through the drum and into the client. Slowly and together begin moving up. If either drummer feels an area needing more Reiki, stop and drum there until the area feels cleared. Carefully watch the other drummer to know if this is happening so you can stay synchronized.
Continue up but as you get close to the heart soften the drumming and especially around the head and ears. Continue up over the crown.
Then go back down, ending with a somewhat longer period at the feet to establish grounding.
7) Client Integration
When you feel guided to stop, put your drum down and begin to beam Reiki into your client’s energy field to help them integrate the changes that have taken place during the healing session. We have found CKR, or DKM, or Rama from Karuna Reiki® to be helpful for integration.
8). Closing and Offering Gratitude
Give a prayer of thanks for the healing to the Divine, the guides, and angels and the spirit of the drum. Then draw a CKR over the client to seal the healing energies in with Love and with light. We use a final closing prayer by saying three times, “We seal this healing with Love and light” and then saying, “So It Is, Blessed Be, Amen.”
Additional Instructions:
Always respect the wishes of the client for softer or louder drumming. Encourage your client to let you know what they would like.
Drum softer during the first moments of the session. Gradually increase the volume of the drumming to a comfortable level. Be aware of where the edges of the drum are at all times so as to avoid bumping the client with the drum.
Drum intuitively. Trust and know that there is no right or wrong rhythm. Yet, we have discovered that a beat of a steady, even, un-fluctuating rhythm and volume will allow the client to slip into a deep restful state.
You may find that you are guided to chant the names of the Reiki energies while drumming. If so go ahead and allow the energy of your voice to blend with the Reiki drumming energies. You could also chant the affirmations you and the client have formulated for the session.
Final words
When you allow the Reiki energy to assist and guide you in all that you do, it will take you into places within your being, and dimensions and realms that you have not yet experienced in this life.
We hope this article has inspired you to explore the healing power of sound blended with Reiki. Through Reiki drumming you can channel healing and joy to yourself and others and allow the essence of well-being to flow into the lives of future generations. By doing so you will be working and living in an age of awakened joy, peace, and prosperity for all people.

Reiki for the Dying
by Judi Broyles
Never has the power of Reiki been more apparent than when I have used it in situations of dire need. I am a hospice volunteer with Pathways in Sunnyvale, California, and I use Reiki with the patients assigned to me. Since Reiki always heals, even if it does not cure the physical body, it can help a patient to heal spiritually and emotionally to ease the pathway of transition. I have seen Reiki relieve severe pain on more than one occasion. I have seen the tremors of Parkinson’s disease cease for a while. I have witnessed a woman whose restricted ability to breathe and swallow eased with Reiki’s energy.
Working with patients in hospice presents some challenges. First, they are usually in a hospital bed and not on a massage table. That can be a challenge in itself. Often the hospital bed is pushed up against a wall, so giving Reiki is very different than being able to move and walk around a table. Other things to look out for are tubes, wires and other connections. If the person is not in a hospital bed, another approach is necessary. On one occasion, I took off my shoes and climbed up on the bed because the patient was propped up in a sitting position on the side of the bed with her legs off the bed and on a stool. I have learned to expect the unexpected. And thank God that Reiki goes to where Reiki is needed. I even considered sending distant Reiki to this patient, although I was in the same room.1
Using Reiki with the dying requires being acutely aware of their body and how they are using Reiki and also being aware of my body, especially my crown chakra and hands, for these are my tools and tell me what I need to know to be a good practitioner. I must also listen to my intuitive powers. My “Third Eye” plays an important role in letting me know where to place my hands for “The Greater Good.”
My very first hospice patient was a 38-year-old man with brain cancer. My Reiki Master, Donna Shaffer, was treating him, and she offered to let me go along. I soon learned that there is much to know about treating a dying patient with Reiki.
A dying patient uses Reiki energy in ways that a reasonably healthy patient does not. This energy can be more spiritual in nature and feels very gentle. It might be very intense when it is being used to relieve pain. It can be unbelievably strong as the patient’s will to live drinks it in with the great thirst of a person in the desert. It may change from one kind of energy to another from day to day or during the same session.
Once, as I was working on his heart chakra, I saw something so beautiful that I started to cry. I saw a perfect sphere with a center of glowing crystal quartz. The sphere was surrounded by a magnificent blue field that turned to lavender at the outer edge, which was surrounded by sparkling prisms of more crystals. Donna asked me if I was all right. I told her I was but that I had just seen the most beautiful thing I had ever seen in my life. Donna told me that my description sounded as though I had seen his soul.
I remember very well one occasion shortly before this young man surrendered his desire for life. Donna was working at his feet and I was at his head. She stepped out into the hall and was fanning herself to cool off. My hands, face, and whole body grew hotter and hotter until I didn’t think I could stand any more. Fortunately, Donna noticed and quietly told me to go put my hands under cold running water. After a while I was able to return. The last time we saw him, his energy had changed, and this time Reiki was very gentle and quiet. He died two days later. He was a wonderful young man.
My first assignment with Pathways was a 94-year-old woman. She had such a bad case of COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) that her doctor gave her less than six months to live and put her into hospice care. She didn’t know what Reiki was but decided to give it a try. During my first visit I spent 30 minutes trying to explain Reiki. Since I was a new practitioner, I stumbled and mumbled, and finally said, “Let me show you.” During her first treatment she told me that when I put my hands on her left foot, she felt a shock of energy in her left wrist, which she had broken several years before. On another day she saw colors.
After three months she was discharged from hospice. Laughing, she told me that during an elevator ride to her floor (she lived in a residential care facility) a woman told her that she was the talk of the town. She asked what that meant and was told, “You were on hospice and you got better!” All the residents are talking about it! I saw her privately for a while, and she is now back on hospice and once again getting well. I helped her celebrate her 95 th birthday. The less than six months to live is now a week or two shy of one year, with her 96 th birthday in sight.
When Parkinson’s affects a person’s ability to breathe easily or to swallow comfortably, the result can be very frightening. I cannot imagine the feeling of constantly being suffocated and being hungry, but not being able to eat because of the inability to swallow. As I gave her Reiki, she began to breathe more easily. Her husband was astonished to see her diaphragm move up and down with each breath. He told me that he hadn’t seen her do that for a long time. When I left he had taken her to their room to rest. She was in Reiki land. I only saw this woman a few times, but the results I witnessed were amazing.
I discovered that Reiki can be extremely effective for patients with Alzheimer's. When I first began seeing an 87-year-old woman who was afflicted with this disease, she would become agitated easily and didn’t know who I was or what Reiki was, even though I had seen her before. She would say, “Do I know you?” “Reiki, I don’t know Reiki.” It became, “Oh, you’re the Reiki lady. I really like Reiki.” This woman also had Parkinson's disease with a tremor in her right hand. The first time I gave her Reiki, she started to relax, and I wondered if Reiki could stop the tremor, so I put my hands on her hand. Never would I have believed that the tremors of Parkinson’s disease could become still if I hadn’t seen it for myself. I had been told that these tremors are continuous all day, every day—even during sleep. By the end of the treatment she would be sound asleep, so I don't know how long the effect of Reiki would last, but her caregiver was constantly amazed by the change she saw. Her daughter, who is a psychologist, called to thank me. She said that Reiki had made an amazing change in her mother. She also told me that she thought her mother was nearing the end.
Treating a 62-year-old woman with multiple cancers revealed how powerful Reiki can be. She did not want any pain medication because it made her feel groggy and nauseous. The first time I saw her she was writhing in pain. I gave her Reiki and she was asleep by the time I was finished. I am told that she slept for six uninterrupted hours of much-needed rest and that it had been days since she had really slept because of the pain. I started seeing her daily because Reiki had now become her morphine. She would toss and turn trying to find a position that would give her comfort, but it wasn’t until I asked Reiki to connect me to her, to use me as a channel for its healing energy, and then place my hands on her, that she would start to relax. I would look at her face from time to time, and I could see the pain leave. I could also feel her body relax and soften as the pain was lifted.
Every day her family would anxiously wait for my arrival so that their mother could be free of pain and able to rest. She would smile when I entered her room because she knew that Reiki’s healing energy would soon be hers. The last time I saw her she was actively transitioning, and I gave her Reiki one last time. She seemed to be very peaceful when I left.
I wish the world could have shared his smile when I told a gentleman with pancreatic cancer that I would be returning every week to give him Reiki. He told me that during his first session he felt an electric current in his abdomen when my hands were there. He was sleeping when I left. The second time he had Reiki he slept for a long time. I gave his wife a Reiki treatment because, as his primary caregiver, she also needed support. He awoke before I left and told me that he felt like he was floating on a cloud. I gave him Reiki just before he died. His wife wanted him to float away on a cloud. As I see energy as colors, I saw brilliant blue for peace, lavender for love, and magenta for spirituality. It meant a lot to his family to know that he was comfortable with his transition.
All of these patients have helped me to grow as a person. It is an honor to share this spiritual time of their lives with them. They have changed my life. I have learned how to really “be there” for a person during this special time in their lives. More importantly, I want to “be there” for them. I have been given the gift of becoming a compassionate person. Frequently I am asked, “Isn’t seeing dying people depressing?” My answer is always the same: “No, because I know that I have something special to offer. I offer Reiki.”
Reiki is a gift that has been given to me. Reiki really is a gift because in a gentle, non-invasive way, I can bring comfort to those who are in transition. No amount of money can do what Reiki can do.
1 Editor’s note: In situations such as these, it may be helpful to use Beaming. Sit at a comfortable distance from the client, allow Reiki to flow, and direct your hands to a specific area or to the entire body.

Reiki for Batteries
by William Lee Rand
Here’s a very helpful and practical idea. Reiki can actually be used to charge batteries! This includes cell phone batteries, camera batteries, car batteries and other kinds of batteries. Some may think this an unusual statement, but experience shows it to be true; all that’s necessary to prove this to yourself is to try it. Over the years, we’ve received many stories about charging batteries with Reiki and there’s also a scientific hypothesis to explain why it works.
Many devices that use batteries have meters that show how much electrical charge the battery is holding. This is the case with cell phones and cameras; the meter will give you an immediate indication the technique is working as the number of bars indicating battery charge will go up! Because of this, this amazing technique makes your cell phone or camera into a Reiki meter that physically measures the results of your Reiki energy!
This is a simple technique. The next time your battery is low, just remove it, hold it in your hand, draw Reiki symbols over it (if you have symbols, if not just use straight Reiki) and hold both hands over the battery as you give it Reiki. Do this for 5-10 minutes or so. Then replace the battery and check the number of bars. They will often go up. If the battery didn’t have enough energy to operate your phone or camera often it will after giving the battery Reiki.
Here is one hypothesis on why this works. Studies done by Robert N., Miller, an industrial research scientist have shown that healing energy emitted from the palms of healers has the ability to lower the surface tension of water. When the surface tension of water is lowered, it can interact with other chemicals more easily. This allows any chemical energy remaining in a battery to be processed into electrical energy more easily.
Here are a few stories
I was teaching a class in Glastonbury, England and mentioned this method of charging cell phone batteries in class. During the break, one student attempted to call her husband but her cell phone battery was dead. We both worked on it giving it Reiki and sure enough, when she placed the battery back in the phone, it had enough energy for her to make the call. Her husband was skeptical of Reiki but when he found out how his wife was able to call her he had second thoughts.
At another class in Glastonbury, we were walking to the Tor, a sacred hill in the area. One of the students was disappointed as her camera batter was completely dead and she wanted to talk pictures. I asked her to remove the battery and I then proceeded to give it Reiki using a Karuna symbol. I could feel special frequencies of energy flowing into the battery and when she placed it back in the camera, it turned on and she was able to use it. The screen worked and it had plenty of power. She was able to use it to take pictures for the next three days!
A friend of mine who is always helping others was driving down the highway and noticed a motorist pulled over on the side of the road with the hood up. So he pulled over to see if he could help. The driver said he was an auto mechanic and had done very thing he could think of to get the car started with no success. My friend asked him to sit behind the steering wheel so he could try a few things. The driver protested and insisted the he was quite sure nothing could be done to get the car started. Even so, my friend encouraged him to go ahead anyway so he did. With the hood up, the driver couldn’t see what he was doing. He proceeded to draw the Usui power symbol over the battery and give it Reiki. After 10 minutes or so, he asked the driver to try to start the car. He turned the key and the car started right up! The driver was very excited and perplexed and demanded to know what he had done to get it started. My friend just said he had played with the wires as he didn’t think the driver would have believed him.
Go ahead and try this technique and you’ll have your own Reiki story to tell.

In Memory of Duff Cady
Duff was one of our Licensed teachers and I'm sad to say that he passed on this past Saturday July 25 at 1:30pm. He was on his way to teach a class and had a heart attack as he was getting off an airplane.
Duff was a wonderful person who was always in good humor and had something positive to say about everyone. Having lots of funny stories and jokes to tell, it was always good to see him. He was also a great healer and used Reiki in unique ways and combined it with other healing skills and gifts. Duff was the one who discovered the location of Mrs. Takata's Reiki clinic in Hilo, Hawaii.
We will always remember him as a kind and loving person who allowed Reiki to be his guide.

World Peace Card Meditation
Wednesday, August 19, 7:30pm
(based on local time in your time zone)
You are invited to take part in the eighth World Peace Card Meditation. Please mark your calendar and forward this notice to all your friends.
Thanks for Your Help!
Because so many of you forwarded this notice to your friends, there have been over 105,000 downloads of the World Peace Cards. This is a tremendous increase in the number of people using the cards. So far the total number of World Peace Card sets downloaded, received from our free offer and from our magazine has been over 120,000! I hope you have been using your peace cards as their use brings blessings to the world as well as to you.
The eighth World Peace Card group meditation has been scheduled for Wednesday, August 19 at 7:30pm. This is local time in your time zone. This method has been chosen because of the special effect it produces. As people meditate in each successive time zone the energy builds like a wave which gets stronger and stronger as it circles the planet. Because of the higher dimensional nature of consciousness, the energy of peace will be transmitted for a full 24 hours and continue long after this.
Reports from those who took part in the previous meditations indicate many had powerful spiritual experiences. As they united with those taking part in the meditation a feeling of peace developed within that stayed with each for a long time. Some saw beautiful golden light surrounding the planet and others felt that a web of fear was dissipating and being replaced with trust in others and for our future.
All those who have received the cards are being asked to meditate on world peace at this time. By taking part in this group meditation, you’ll be joining thousands of people who will be using the cards to bring peace to the world. By joining together, the affect we have will be greatly multiplied. This powerful experience and will help shift the vibration of our wonderful planet into a higher state of consciousness. As you use the cards to meditate on world peace, you will be a beacon through which peace will spread around the planet which will have a positive uplifting effect on all people.
Please set aside this time to meditate with the cards. The suggested meditation period is 15 minutes, but of course you can meditate longer if you’d like to. The technique I’d like you to use is based on allowing yourself to be a beacon of peace. The World Peace Cards hold the vibration of the World Peace Grids which have been placed at spiritually significant locations and are relay stations for higher consciousness. By simply opening to their energy, you’ll become a channel for their love and peace which will flow through you to all the people on Earth. To do this, hold the cards in your hands or place them in front of you. Then simply meditate on peace.
We are entering a new era. Our entire planet including all the people and living things are moving into a place where it will be much easier to solve our problems and to create peace, prosperity and happiness for everyone. The World Peace Card meditation will quicken this process, making it easier for people to experience this new quality of higher consciousness and will provide great benefit for all people. Since this benefit will be flowing through you out to everyone on the planet, you'll be blessed by this experience as well.
Many have received the cards in the mail or in the Reiki News Magazine while others have downloaded them from our web site. If you would like additional copies of the cards, please download them using this link and print as many copies as you can use. Please feel free to give them to your friends. Also, forward this email to anyone you feel would like to take part in the meditation.

What can Reiki heal?
by Marianne Streich
In Getting the Most from Reiki, Marianne shares her perspective regarding Reiki healing.
Keys to a Successful Reiki Practice
by Patricia Mahaffey
Reiki has a practical side—as a well-operated business, it can create significant income. In interviews with six successful Reiki Masters, Patricia explores how they have combined life purpose and livelihood to create thriving practices. This is the first article in a series.
Reiki and Our Prosperous Earth

Everyday Reiki
by Nancy Barrett and Sandy Trimble
Reiki is a versatile technique that can be used in almost any circumstance; however, most Reiki classes don’t have time to explore all of its possible uses. The authors of this article explain valuable ways to use Reiki that may not have occurred to practitioners.
Family Reiki Times
by Ursula Janiga-Price

Creating Trust: Reiki with a Feral Kitten

A Reiki Healing Pillow
by Marnie Plunkett

Writing Case Reports for Reiki
by Jane Van De Velde, RN, ND
The medical and scientific communities are looking for evidenced based information that will demonstrate the therapeutic value of Reiki. Simpler and less time-consuming than scientific studies, case reports are an accepted form of evidence, and they can be prepared by practitioners who are not trained researchers. Jane explains how to create case reports and get them published.
Response to the Bishops Statement on Reiki
by William Lee Rand
The US Conference of Catholic Bishops has issued a statement that Reiki is not an appropriate practice for Catholic hospitals, health care centers or chaplains. Their conclusions and many of the ideas in the statement are based on inaccurate information. This article explains the facts about some common Reiki myths and gives information that is important for all practitioners to know.
Takata’s Handouts
by William Lee Rand
It is widely believed that Mrs. Takata taught Reiki only as an oral tradition and that she didn’t provide students with handouts or allow them to take notes or tape record classes. It has recently come to light that she did allow students in at least one class to take notes and provided students with handouts. Copies of these handouts have been made available to William and are reproduced in this article.
My Time with Takata
by Diana Lynn Siderides
Takata had a remarkable personality, strict and direct in the classroom, yet kind and playful outside of class. This article shares the author’s personal experiences with Takata as a teacher and a friend.
Reiki and Dying
by Judi Broyles
Reiki in hospice situations can be challenging, but it can also be deeply meaningful. Judi shares how she has addressed challenges she has encountered in the treatment of hospice patients and how she has experienced deeply special moments that have helped her grow as a person..
This is an exciting and valuable issue that will supply you with entertainment as well as quality information and instruction. If you have any suggestions on how the magazine could be improved, I'd be very happy to hear them.
The world is a wonderful place, filled with continual changes which bring with them a never ending supply of opportunities. May you grow in the ability to allow the wisdom of Reiki to guide how you create your life.
Love and peace to you and the world.

Reiki Stories
Brain Healed
Summer of '07 I visited my Sister Joan in Rochester, NY. While I spent about 3-4 days there, I discovered that my Sister had a strong interest in Usui Reiki healing. When I returned home to Syracuse, New York I went on the internet to search for local Reiki practitioners. Fortunately I found a Master teacher who lives in Syracuse and I contacted her for class-training schedules. Classes were available and I indicated that when I could put together enough money to cover the cost of training I would enroll.
It was Winter and I went to our outside mail box for the daily mail and did a 180 flip and landed on the left half of my skull. I knew I was in deep trouble. I hesitated for a moment then got up on my feet and went into the apartment. I told my wife what happened, went into my bedroom where I fell and could not move. The paramedics were called and I ended up in nearby St Joseph's hospital. In a short time I was diagnosed with massive bleeding in my brain and surgery was scheduled. The pressure somehow had to be relieved so two pie-shaped pieces were removed from my skull. As time elapsed, my family was told that I did not have much of a chance for survival, Just about this time the Master Reiki practitioner I had previously contacted found out about my distress and put in motion all her local students & practitioners on my behalf. After several weeks went by the Doctor still gave little hope for a full recovery. Then in the 3rd week I awoke and told the Nurse on duty that, "I'm hungry & thirsty" By the end of April I left the Hospital and went into a recovery hospice where I received physical therapy and daily training to learn how to walk again. By the end of June '08 I was sent home and able to walk with a cane. It is now June '09 and I am back into a full life of activity and health. Thanks once again for Usui Reiki healing and the efforts of Dr. Mary Reposo, Syracuse, NY. By the way I received my Reiki I attunement from Dr. Mary in February '09. Wm. R. (Bill) Peterson
Dog’s Hind Legs Healed
Last year November, my step daughter told me that they wanted to put their 11year old Boerbull Zola down as she was having massive back leg hip problems to the extent that she couldn't walk and was struggling to get herself to rise. I had just cleared a fever on my grandson using Reiki and I asked her if she would allow me to work on Zola. They separated Zola and her partner Bully and I started intense Reiki on her hind legs and lower back. Within the first session my step daughter and husband noticed a difference. By the third night Zola was up and using her hind legs and in fact ran to meet me at the gate very excited. We are not 7 months and going strong. Unfortunately her partner contracted a bad strain of tic bite and passed away within 24 hours. For this reason it is my believe that God requested that I be there that day to start administering Reiki to Zola so that they would have one dog left as He knew what was coming. Christel Laubscher
Blood Pressure Lowered
I received my Reiki I&II training last month and have an experience to share...and it was exciting!!! I've given my dad several Reiki treatments in the last couple weeks and he's loving them, says he feels so warm and relaxed and just can't get over the heat from my hands. Yesterday he had a pacemaker "inserted" (I guess that's how you say it?). Went to the hospital this morning with my mom to pick him up and he wasn't feeling so well. Said he felt light headed and foggy, had nausea and his blood pressure (b/p) was quite high , also pain at the incision site. So....I watched the nurses in action for a bit, trying this and that before I got bold...then I went to the nurses’ station and asked if anyone had heard of Reiki. Well, some had and some hadn't, I explained a little and his nurse said go for it...so I did. I gave him a 30 min. treatment and they watched the monitors from the nurses’ station and had me hit the B/P button as soon as I was finished so they could check the reading. His b/p had lowered significantly, 20pts pts. on the top and 10 on the bottom and within another 15 min.or so it had gone down further. When I walk out of his room they were saying "way to go" "good work in there" "did you see how much it came down". His nausea, pain and foggy feelings cleared up too. He was discharged a short time later! And...I just happen to have some of my newly printed business cards on me and I passed them out as I left. Too much fun! I would love to hear any experiences you guys have had so please...share! Hope to hear from you soon! Lorri
