How did I get into Reiki?
For many years I was a Publisher at The Quarto Group, the world's leading illustrated non-fiction publisher and distribution group. It was an enjoyable, intense career, working with talented colleagues in a demanding, deadline-driven and fast-changing sector. To help me stay well and strong, I had Reiki around once a month. In honesty, I didn’t know what it was exactly, or how it worked, and hardly had the time to find out—but I booked it because I knew that without fail I always gained useful benefits from it. Reiki refreshed my mind, helped sleep, cleared up infections, boosted my energy, dramatically aided the impact of timezone changes when travelling, mitigated fatigue, and generally gave me headspace and sanity.
When I retired from publishing, having gained such benefit from Reiki, I decided to take a closer look, and over several years completed training. I’m wary of the term ‘Reiki Master’ because I believe that good practitioners are always open to learning more. Personal daily practice is also essential. I offer no other therapy apart from Reiki - my clinic is busy and I find this therapy fascinating, useful and satisfying.
I favour a practical approach to Reiki and tend to steer clear of New Age descriptions and additions.
I positively enjoy practicing Reiki and my motivation is to help my clients improve or maintain their health.
