    I like to study coaching. It fits very well with some of the emotional concepts that come up during Reiki. I think when someone is emotional often our “best friend” mentality kicks in and we start to do the listening work we can, however, often a client does not need a “best friend” they probably…

    So, I was hoping to continue my learning and build on what I already knew from the Jikiden Reiki course, which was brilliant by the way and I did get a new certificate. However, I found that this course had many pieces of misinformation in it. Also, the teacher seemed to struggle with the pronunciation…

    So I don’t often include much about my spirituality recognising that if people were interested they too would be practising and their practice might be very different to mine. But since I’m putting myself out there as a Reiki practitioner I thought I would include my Reiki Story. See my Instagram profile GrayReiki. For information…

    So I managed to complete a full hour of Qigong, Taijiquan and Wudang Gongfu. I am pleased with this having struggled to return to my martial arts since the pandemic. I hope this continues.

    So I have been doing various forms of energy work since I was about 16, but as the years went on I wanted to get a proper qualification in Traditional Reiki as it was taught in Japan by Mikao Usui Sensei. I have an array of qualifications, but not a practitioner one. I was already…

    So tell me why a human being deserves rights? What’s the answer in your gut? Is it because we have community and institutions that are set up to protect our rights? We deserve them because we were granted them by the rest of humanity? What if the world wasn’t so kind? Would we still deserve…

    I included this so I can show how I learn languages. I mostly rely on constant active recall and try to cover each piece of vocabulary 5-10 times using it in context. This allows the grammatical structures to slowly become natural and the vocab to have a good chance to be learned quickly. Uno Sbaglio…

    The boyfriends mentioned to me that they quite like rice dishes and being Italian, I almost always cook pasta instead! Hell, if it worked, I would have curry with pasta! I decided to make this dish which would be based on something my mum would cook, creamy mushroom and ham, but she would do it…

    This is a family favourite that has been passed down in my family for generations. It was originally an Ancient Egyptian recipe at least the name is derived from the late Egyptian language Coptic and there are supposedly samples of it in the carvings of the cities of Memphis and Thebes and the tools for…

    Love this! So easy and I’ve done it loads of times. One of my favourite recipes and I often tell myself it has beans in it which are good for your heart. Ingredients Tools Quantities Most of the above are good for 300-500g of chicken meat. If you are buying one of those 1kg packs…
