1. Interesting Reiki Stories:
Reiki stories are posted as a way to help keep us inspired and to remember to use Reiki as a tool in healing. If you have an experience or story to share, please forward it to us, otherwise I will try to post a story or two monthly that I find on the web.

2. Requests for Long Distance Healing:
Requests for Long Distance Healing: When there are several requests, in our small way, we can participate by adding each individual to our prayer list or to send long distance Reiki. Please consider printing out these requests so you can remember these people over this next month.
If you make a request for long distance healing, it would be helpful if you could provide us with some feedback on how the person is doing after a period of time. Remember if there are multiple requests, you can use the stack method of sending long distance Reiki. One suggestion would be: When time permits-- send long distance Reiki for one specific request, then add that request to an on-going list or stack that receives unlimited Reiki.
Level I Practitioners: You can participate in the Long Distance Requests by adding the individuals to your prayer list or send positive thoughts and intentions.
Request Submitted by Judith S My friend Lori who moved to Berlin, MD could use reike. Her MS is "up and running" again... numb from feet up to breasts... Recently went for 3 day session of IV's, and starting to feel some areas of the body, but could use your reiki as well as prayers. Also Dean underwent cancer surgery on prostate... local man, but can use any help that's available... Both have strong spiritual lives and are in direct contact with the Man upstairs... but reike is also very good.
Request Submitted by Andrea G Please include in your requests LeRoy Maskell of Villas NJ ( alot of cardiac, pain and lung issues, my dad) and Violet Hannagan of Villas NJ ( (brain tumor along with side afffects from that, my sep mother?

3. Q & A
The following question/answer were from Reiki for Dummies
QUESTION: Do I need to receive an attunement to receive this high level energy? (referring to Reiki energy)
ANSWER: No. But few people are naturally attuned to this energy. Very spiritual people through their spiritual practices may already access this energy. Practitioners of other energy work such as T'ai Chi or Qigong, may also utilize this energy, but it may take years of practice to consistently reach this level.
What is unique about Reiki is that it opens your energy channelst o receive this high level energy quickly with no effort on your part .

4. What's New?
We are closing our office location in Silverdale, PA at the end of this month. It has been a difficult decision for us to close, but due to the current economic situation and the expenses associated with maintaining an office, we can no longer continue. We have been blessed with meeting and getting to know so many wonderful people through the years. Our intent is to continue to offer our classes through a hosting program.
The Reiki newsletter will continue until the end of this year. The issues that are archived on line will remain on the website, but at this point I no longer intend to continue to put out a monthly publication. I hope those who have followed this newsletter through the years have found it informative and beneficial for both continued spiritual growth and as a motivating tool to keep you inspired to work with this wonderful healing modality.

5. Interesting Websites:
Kyron Channelings Channel from July 2009 The Lineage of Spirituality
TheMystic.org Spiritual Awakening: Mystical awakening is individual. Your particular sequence will be the very best one for you. It is arranged through the instrumentality of higher consciousness itself. You must give yourself a chance and not interfere with your awakening. Using guidelines from this website and Mysteries.Net may be helpful, but to use these principles in order to set your will on how your awakening is supposed to occur will greatly inhibit you.

7. Working with Others: Herxheimer Reaction: The Healing Crisis Whether just working on yourself in an effort to restore balance or if you are working with others, it is important to have a basic understanding of the healing process. Healing tends to follow a pattern, and if we are not aware of the possibilities, we may mistake them for a worsening of our condition rather than an improvement.
Source: The Herxheimer Reaction occurs when the body is detoxifying too rapidly and toxins are being released faster than the body can eliminate them.When this occurs, one will suffer from headaches, nausea, vomiting, and malaise. Even though this is but a short period of the health program, it can be severe and deter one from reaching their intended goals. Also, the person may not know what they are experiencing and think that they are regressing.
To minimize the Herxheimer Reaction: - Drinks lots of pure alkaline ionized water - Get minimal exercise daily - Lots of sunshine - Take detoxification slowly ... one step at a time - Don’t increase the dose of herbals - Keep the organs of elimination (bowels, lungs, skin, kidneys) open - Take detox baths - Use aromatherapy oils for aches -like peppermint, birch, and wintergreen - Sweat by using exercise, saunas, baths, and herbs - Avoid foreign chemicals and refined processed foods
If the Herxheimer reaction occurs, cut back on your health detoxification program. Reduce the dose of herbs and follow the above outline to reduce the symptoms of toxin elimination. The more toxins there are to eliminate, the sicker one is when they come out. Generally, one will feel better when all is over and health is restored again. Just remember, don’t give up. Herxheimer reaction is also known as a healing crisis.

9. Tips & Tidbits:
60 Ways to Heal Your Life… From Lynda Field’s book Each month one of Lynda’s suggestion is included:
Suggestion 45: Improve Your Sex Life Physical attraction is always so strong at the beginning of a relationship. The tantalizing nature of the mating game, attracting and seducing, leaves the hormones in a perpetual state of excitement and the beloved is an amazingly erotic hero/heroine who can do no wrong. Now wonder the sex is good! And then, if the fairy tale comes true and we become a "stable relationship", everything changes.
Increasing commitment and responsibility to each other brings peace and security. The early days of thrilling sexual excitement (Will he notice me? Will she ring? What a hero!) end. Things like jobs, children and mortgages inevitably affect our sex lives. Some people never have a permanent relationship because they can't bear to lose the thrill of the chase and the seduction. Others have affairs throughout their marriages for similar reasons. Bit it is possible to keep your sex life buzzing in a long term relationship.
Try the following: - Focus your attention on your sex life. If it's losing its appeal talk about it to each other.
- Keep talking about sex with each other. We can be sexual all day-we don't have to wait until we get into bed at night and turn off the lights.
-Put the romance back into your relationship. Remember how it was at the start, recreate that atmosphere. Think about why you entered this relationship. What turned you on in the first place?
-Spend time along with each other, turn off the television, stop cleaning the kitchen and enjoy each other.
-Laugh together. When we share humor we bring great intimacy into our relationship. A great sense of humor is a terrific turn-on.
-Change the way you do things, break some of your oh-so-comfortable/boring routines. You will know what these are!
- Think about sex. This advice is for women. Research shows that men think about sex at least five times in an hour (a very conservative estimate, I should think) Women often don't think about it at all! If you don't think about sex...start!
Next Month: Suggestion 46: Stay Cool

10. Miscellaneous:
