Louise Heseltine's Egyptian Reiki Adventure!
Hi, I’m Louise and I am a Reiki Master and Teacher, (with Reiki Evolution) and Complementary Therapist. A few months ago I went to Egypt on holiday. It was absolutely fantastic. So I wondered if you’d like to come next time...
Have you done Reiki 1, 2 or Masters? Fancy a holiday to Egypt with other Reiki people? Or perhaps you would like to learn Reiki and then join our trip to help enhance your Reiki practice.
In A Nutshell:
Our group will receive Reiju Empowerments and experience guided meditations at ancient sites, and in beautiful gardens, make lots of new Reiki friends and share knowledge and experiences.
Bookings are through Kuoni – winners of the “Worlds Leading Travel Operator” award many times over. Flights are with Egypt Air. The itinerary includes some beautiful, atmospheric hotels and a 4 night Nile Cruise.
We’ll be guided by an Egyptologist who will accompany us throughout the holiday, taking us to some of the most stunning and magnificent sights in the world.
The tour begins in Aswan, where we will stay at the Old Cataract Hotel, with its beautiful gardens and famous terrace where we can sip afternoon tea while enjoying stunning views of the Nile, felucca boats and desert beyond. Philae Island and felucca boat rides are on offer here as well as the option to visit Abu Simbel.
We then board our cruise ship, with spacious sun decks for sunset group meditation sessions, and a plunge pool. Sailing south to Aswan, we visit more Temples on the way, enjoying a different pace of life altogether as we cruise past desert landscapes and savor the verdant banks of the Nile.
In Luxor we stay at the Old Winter Palace Hotel, which is full of old world charm, boasts fantastic, spacious gardens, and sits on the East bank of the Nile. Trips include Karnac and Luxor Temples and the West Bank, with the Valley of the Kings and the Temple of Queen Hatshepsut. There is the option to take a hot air balloon ride over the Valley of the Kings.
And for those who wish to extend their trip, Cairo beckons. 3 nights in the historic Mena House Oberoi Hotel, with incredible views of the pyramids across the gardens, and the opportunity to visit Downtown Cairo, the Pyramids and Sphinx, and the Egyptian Museum, home to King Tutankhamun’s treasures.
The Reiki...
As every day on the holiday will be different, our Reiki will slot in as appropriate each day.
We will have Reiki gatherings at sunset, out of doors, to meditate or use Reiki however we feel guided to at this powerful yet often beautifully tranquil time of day. All the hotels have wonderful, spacious gardens bursting with scent and colour, for us to meet for Reiki sessions, and the cruise ship has a large sun deck with sun loungers where we can ‘meet and treat’.
After dinner, we will relax over a drink or two, or meet for group meditation, healing or discussion.
Depending on the balance of Reiki 1 people, Reiki 2's and Masters we may sometimes split off into groups to do Reiki specific to our level, so everyone can extend and enhance their skills and understanding of the energy, however far their Reiki journey has taken them.
We will have a healing book and add to it throughout the trip, sending Reiki together to those in need. I personally would like to make time for sending healing to our planet in these times of tsunamis, earthquakes and other natural disasters. I hope you will feel free to make any suggestions as we go as well. What would you like to see included, Reiki-wise? We will try and include it as appropriate. Suggestions of Reiki themes for group discussion will also be welcomed.
And there will be time to talk Reiki whenever we want along the way - on the plane, at baggage reclaim at airports, at meal times, and so on.
For those interested in the wider world of complementary therapies, or who are therapists themselves, some of our group members work in other areas of therapy as well as Reiki – reflexology, aromatherapy, Indian head massage, kinesiology, Emotional Freedom Technique, homeopathy and Bach flower remedies to name a few.
Reiki On Location:
There is always plenty to delight the senses in Egypt. On our excursions, our Egyptologist guide (Hany) will give his archeological talk and take us round the site. Then, if you want to spend the time looking around the temples or wherever we are, you can, or if you want to meditate in a group or receive empowerments, you can do that too. Hany can show us the best places for a bit of peace and quite.
Hotels we will be staying in:
Aswan - Old Cataract Hotel. Originally a Royal Palace, built in 1898. A stunning location for afternoon tea – the terrace overlooks the Nile, felucca boats and desert beyond. Swimming pool and beautiful gardens. The hotel radiates atmosphere and history from every nook and cranny!
