Introduction
============================================================
Hi, and welcome
to our August 2008 newsletter.
In this
issue you can read about some new resources that we have developed to make your
practice or Reiki just a little bit easier. We have a new audio CD where
Taggart talks you through giving a full Reiki treatment, just like he would on
the day of a live Reiki course, and we have a new A5 book called “Reiki in a
Nutshell” that is ideal for people who are finding out about Reiki for the
first time.
We have
also developed a new home study course which allows people to learn Reiki for
their own personal development and stress relief, without the need to practise
Reiki on other people: “Reiki for stress relief and personal growth”.
All our
audio CDs are now available to download immediately as MP3 files, to play on
your iPod or MP3 player straight away, and if you
order all our CDs as MP3 files you will save money and receive three free gifts
too.
We would
like to thank those people who have given such tremendous feedback on our new
Reiki leaflets CD-ROM www.reiki-evolution.co.uk/reiki-leaflets.htm.
We are pleased that the leaflets are making it a lot easier for practitioners
and teachers to promote their treatments and courses.
Finally, we
have included details of two retreats that are coming along soon, not run by
Reiki Evolution. They are in
>Our
Goal<
Our goal is
to provide high quality Reiki training courses, either through live training or
home study, and to support both our students and the wider community of Reiki in
its practice of Reiki. So if you visit our web site you will find a whole range
of resources that you can use: everything from free Reiki articles and guides to
audio CDs, CD-ROMs and MP3s, professionally-printed manuals, downloadable
manuals and self-help guides, and even prints of the Reiki precepts in Japanese
calligraphy. Why not visit our web site and have a good look around. We are
sure you will find things of interest there.
By all
means forward this e-mail to any Reiki friends you have, or anyone you know who
is interested in Reiki, if you think it will be of use or of interest to them.
With best
wishes to you,
Taggart and

New Audio
CD: “Talking you through a Reiki treatment”
============================================================
To help you
feel more confident in giving a Reiki treatment we have put together an hour
long audio CD where Taggart talks you through giving a full Reiki treatment,
just like he would on the day of a live First Degree course. You are guided
through getting started with your treatment, moving through all the hand
positions, and then finishing off your treatment, with Taggart’s gentle voice
over an attractive backing track that helps you to go deep as you treat.
We also
include a 15 page guide to giving Reiki treatments which you can download.
This CD is
suitable for people at all Reiki levels, can be given to students as part of
their course, or could even be used on the day of a live course. Available worldwide.

New handy guidebook:
“Reiki in a Nutshell”
============================================================
For the
benefit of people finding out about Reiki for the first time, we have put
together a handy A5 sized guide to Reiki, explaining what Reiki is, where it
comes form, what Reiki can do for you, what Reiki training entails, and how
people make Reiki part of their lives. Also includes a guide to choosing a
Reiki teacher.
This 90
page guide is ideal for people who are finding out about Reiki for the first
time, or is perfect to give as a gift to a friend who wants to know what Reiki
is all about.

New home
study course: “Reiki for stress relief and personal growth”
============================================================
Our Reiki
home study courses have been popular for many years now and work very well
because they consist of comprehensive and practical course materials – detailed
and easy-to-read manuals, audio CDs with commentary and guided meditations –
and because we give our students one-to-one attention as they progress through
the various practical energy projects that we have our students carry out with
our guidance. Home study means working at your own speed and having almost
unlimited practice time – as much as you need.
For the
benefit of people who are interested in Reiki primarily for personal growth,
stress relief, and personal development, rather than treating other people, or
for those who for whatever reason do not have access to any people to practise
Reiki on, we have put together a home study course that focuses on stress
relief, spiritual growth and self-development.
This course
is a shortened version of our popular First Degree home study course and you
can read all about the course here:

This retreat is open to
Reiki 2 and above, as we will be working with Reiki 2 techniques. If you
complete your Reiki 2 in July, this will be fine. You don’t need to be a Yoga

lessons will not be suitable for absolute beginners. If you are not sure if you
meet the requirements, let me know your experience and we will check if this
retreat is suited to you.

we have only 12 spaces, so booking soon is recommended! The cost of the retreat
is £230. This includes accommodation, all meals & refreshments, handouts /
reference material, as well as all the Reiki and Yoga classes. The
accommodation is shared, if you need a private room I may be able to arrange
this for a supplement, so let me know before booking. Vegetarian food &
special diets can be arranged at no extra cost but must be notified when
booking. A £70 non-refundable deposit is required to secure your place, the
balance payable by the end of July. Contact me for a booking form.

Qualify in Usui Reiki or Karuna
Reiki®, including working with chakras, sound and mantra
The theme of this trip is healing, or wholing.
As well as practising Reiki, we’ll be learning about some of the indigenous
healing traditions of the Himalayas, including Ayurveda,
Tibetan therapies, meditation, singing bowls, shamanism, herbal treatments,
mantra, yoga, and Ancient Tibetan Reiki.
If you’re new to Reiki, or
maybe did Reiki 1 or 2 a while ago and now feel you’d like to revisit it and
perhaps learn some more, this trip would be ideal. There will be plenty of
opportunity to revise basic knowledge and skills in a supportive atmosphere.
For those who have been practising regularly and are keen to progress, there
will be much here to challenge and inspire you! Tuition will be available in
Usui Reiki at levels 1, 2, and Master Practitioner. Tuition in Karuna Reiki® will also be available for people already at
the Master Practitioner level. Non-Reiki participants, partners and friends are
also very welcome. And if anyone is dealing with stress or illness and would
like to join us to receive some concentrated healing treatments, then this trip
is for you!
In addition to learning Reiki, we’ll be spending some time looking
at different conceptions of the energy body and chakras and how to incorporate
this knowledge into our Reiki treatments. Sound vibration has been used for
millennia in healing as well as in esoteric spiritual practices and we’ll be
learning how to use sound with Reiki, in the form of Kotodama, toning, chanting
and mantra, and maybe even with singing bowls and drumming!
In learning to facilitate
the healing of others it is of central importance to be developing our own
openness – an open mind and an open heart come from being engaged in our own
healing process. This enables us to hold the space for others to heal.
Therefore, an important part of our experience in

The trip will start in Boudha,
where we’ll be introduced to the Tibetan and Nepalese cultures and their
healing traditions. Over the next few days we’ll visit centres of healing to
learn about and experience traditional Himalayan treatments, and learn to
practise meditation Tibetan-style. We’ll also visit Pharping,
a Newari town famous for its pilgrimage sites and
spend some time at Nagarkot (2175 m), which has
amazing views of the

studied Reiki in several different lineages, including both Japanese and
Western techniques, but my Master/Teacher degree is in Taggart King’s lineage.
It was Taggart’s meditations and practices that enabled me to make the strong
connection I now feel with Usui Sensei. This has completely changed my
relationship with Reiki and healing and continues to illuminate my life in the
most delightful ways. To help increase my understanding of energy I’ve also worked
with several other healing modalities, including sound and transpersonal
psychotherapy. These find their way into everything else I do – there are no
