Canadian Reiki Centre Newsletter                           

Winter 2006-2007

 It’s with great pleasure that I’m writing the first ever Canadian Reiki Centre Newsletter. This is also the official launching of the Canadian Reiki Centre and I’m very excited about it. 

I’ve been teaching Reiki for about 10 years and have been practicing it for much longer but until recently, had never considered doing it on a more formal or regular basis.  I was busy raising a large family, working full-time as a teacher and a consultant; I was way too busy to consider anything else.  I’ve always liked the old Buddhist saying that goes something like this: “When the student is ready, the teacher appears”.  And so, over the years, either people would ask me to teach them Reiki, or a situation would present itself and I would offer to teach it. I taught Reiki classes in many different locations including Québec and California. That was enough for me.  

I took early retirement almost two years ago, partly in order to be available to help with the care of my father.  I found that I was just as busy, if not busier than before I retired and I often wondered half jokingly how I ever found the time to go to work with everything else I had to do. 

Over the last year, I’ve come across more and more people who’ve asked me to teach them Reiki or who commented on their difficulty in finding a Reiki Teacher.  And, as often happens when one is paying attention, life’s events led me step by step to this moment. 

So, in keeping with another reason why I took early retirement which is to focus my energies on health and well-being on a universal level, the Canadian Reiki Center has come into being.  Already, plans are underway for expansion, including others Master/Teachers, travelling across Canada and elsewhere to teach.  The coming months will certainly be exciting and interesting.
