Reiki Workshops Winter 2009/2010

Spreading our wings and light into the world is our main objective. One of the most precious signs that we are on the right path, is when students begin to create their own circles, often using a template from our teaching methods. Not only that but from one acorn, grows an oak.

Now the students are spreading the word that our method of teaching is diverse yet effective in assisting in changing lives in a positive way. Still retaining the initial Reiki ethics and teachings we also find what is best for your healing to take place. Incorporated into workshops we also include Laughter therapy, Dance and movement as well as anger management techniques deriving from Buddhist teachings.

The next Reiki workshops will take place in Central Melilla (North Africa) from the 29th October- 9th Novemeber. We will be teaching 2 reiki 1 workshops (now fully booked) and a Reiki 2 Course (minimum 3 months before attending this course).
These workshops are taught in Spanish.

On the 28th and 29th November we will be at Villa La Paz in Coin. Here we are teaching a Reiki 1 course. There is a residential facility here or apartments on the coast are available for rental.(for non residents)
There are currently 2 places available for this course. For further information please e.mail info@alternative-world.org

In January we are looking at running a Reiki workshop in Kent (To be confirmed)
This is a great way to bring a positive direction to your life
More information will be following shortly....

Additionally we are looking at running a Reiki workshop in Lisbon and Castel Branco in Portugal.
More information will follow shortly....

If you have a centre and are interested in us running a workshop in your area, please e.mail us with your location and services and prices. We look forward to hearing from you shortly...

Healing Circles- Today is a new Dawn

For the past 8 years I have been running Healing Circles assisting in networking and acting as a Catalyst in bringing lightworkers together to interact, grow, share and develop their healing and meditation gifts.

Now it is time for the seeds to be sown. Seeds have been planted in the form of confidence, healing, self worth and recognition, self belief and knowledge as well as unconditional love. That self recognition within their hearts has grown with the realization that their time has come to start a circle of light.

I know that my time has come to delegate the leadership of new circles. I need to spend more time teaching and writing. I know that my spiritual work is taking me on new paths. Being a part of their formation is one of the most beautiful experiences I could wish for.

New healing circles are being formed by former students and followers.
If you wish to join watch this space for new information regarding Healing circles of light along the Costa del Sol and Melilla.

Forthcoming Healing Circles are being formed in Fuengirola, Coin and Melilla.

Reiki 1 for Kids- Bullying Prevention

An introduction

Bullying is a major problem within todays society within many schools.
Peer pressure, fashion status and trends often have effects upon a childs life.
Sexuality and weight also have effects on a childs life.

The most important aspect of life is to be yourself.

Unfortunately too many children bury their true dreams and aspirations for the fear of not fitting in at school. Too many children suppress their true feelings and emotions.
Reiki can help your child to be in touch with themselves.
Reiki can install confidence
Reiki can help your child heal past hurts
Reiki can prevent bullying
Reiki can help your child follow their heart and achieve greater goals and aspirations

Having being bullied as a child I am all too aware of the affects of how it affects a child.
It affects your whole life. I was once a shy teenager who missed out on opportunities because I was too shy and allowed others to hold me back from achieving within school.
Once I overcame my shyness I was able to confront my fears.

A little later in life I discovered Reiki.

I am now in the public eye and run workshops, presentations, organize events, and work within the media. The energy of Reiki helps to boost confidence as well as raising the spiritual frequency.

The people I have taught have ranged from early 20s to late 60s. All those people who have embarked upon courses have changed their lives for the better. They have each found their foundation. A place to work from to achieve and set new goals, they had only once dreamed of.

Reiki 1 is the foundation maker of life. Your child could find themselves at an early age.
Within workshops I teach meditation and creative visualization.

Meditation helps to relax your child. If for example they suffer with sleepless nights, nightmares, tantrums, hyper active behavior, then this helps to calm and relax them as well as teach them to focus and become more positive within themselves.

Creative visualization helps to train their mind as well as encourage greater creativity within. For example this may help to bring about great works of art and literature.A dream diary is also encouraged. Keeping records of dreams creates a greater connection to the universe as well as understanding themselves.

Healing is the greatest priority. Healing is love, unconditional love for the self. Understanding the self creates acceptance. Love is the key to life.

Children are taught how to heal themselves as well as other people, plants and animals.
This also creates a greater bonding within their lives, friendships, family and society.

The workshop

The reiki 1 workshop is taught in one day.
To make the workshop exciting and enjoyable I also incorporate other therapies that work very well with Reiki. Laughter therapy is enjoyable with many adults, but especially children. Laughter is also incredibly powerful as it raises the bodies natural healing defenses. It also releases stress and creates bonding with other children.
Dance therapy is also incorporated into the course to encourage confidence and liberation of the spirit. Here we discover the inner born leader who is crying to escape and prove themselves.

The workshop also focuses on affirmations and positive thoughts.
Meditations and creative visualizations.
Understanding the chakras
Attunement to the energy of Reiki
Self healing
Healing animals and plants
Manual of study (for your child to keep)

The course starts at 10.30am-1pm Lunch and Refreshments then from 2.30pm-5pm
The price of this workshop is 85 euros
A certificate is also awarded with this course.

The course is available for children from 5 years old -16 years old

I am also available to teach this course in schools and colleges.

Reiki 2 Workshops

Reiki Two is the second degree level.
There are many ways in which Reiki is taught. This largely depends upon the Teacher and the Lineage that is followed.

I practise the Traditional Usui method as well as the Integrated Tibetan method.
Level two can only be taken after you have completed level one. You must have been attuned to level one for a minimum of three months. As you know, Reiki One is largely about Self Healing and meditation although you are also introduced to healing others.

Reiki two is about using the Sacred symbols of Reiki that were channelled by Mikao Usui in the late 1800s. These originally are to be kept sacred, although now you can find them on the internet and published within many books. In one way this goes against the Traditional teaching of Reiki.

Reaching Reiki two does not mean that you stop working upon yourself.
It means that you continue at a deeper level as well as healing others.



The Workshop

This workshop is taught over 2.5 days

Three days prior to the workshop you will receive the Symbols and the Mantras. You must be able to draw, the symbols as well as write and chant the mantras. These you must learn off by heart by the time you return for the workshop. The symbols and mantras must be destroyed so that no-one can view them. You will know them and retain them within.

.Throughout the Workshop you are taught to feel and connect to the energy of each symbol through meditation practices. Each symbol carries a different vibration and healing energy.
You will connect with the Power Symbol, Mental Emotional and the Distance Symbol.
You will connect with the Unconditional love of Reiki through the highest Power for your Personal self development.

Attunements and Empowerments
Also incorporated into this workshop are Soul Development Exercises, Meditations and Visualizations, Distance Healing, Healing with Crystals, The Violet Flame, The power of the Universe, Healing Relationships, working with the Terminally ill and the dying, Releasing Karma,
Past life Regression/Future Lives and Healing Treatments
Depending upon your individual development other methods of Healing are incorporated into the workshop.

A certificate is awarded.

You are required to keep a diary of all your meditations and dreams throughout the Course as well as for 21 days. After 21 days you return with your diary and will receive an additional Empowerment (a gift from us).

What happens on a Reiki 1 Workshop?

Taking those all important steps towards the spiritual self, is often a hard decision to make. Often a life changing occurrence has occurred within your life, to assist you in making those all important positive changes towards an aspect of light and renewal.

Many people have experienced, hardships, relationship breakups, illness , the loss of a loved one or even a near death experience. It is at these low points in life that we begin to re-evaluate our lives and feel and know that there is something better.

Too many people are “people pleasers” and do not give enough time to themselves.
Knowing that you deserve better and that you can do something to help yourself as well as others, is indeed a gift to accept into your unique way of existence.
Reiki one is about finding that time.
Time for the self
Creating a balance within your life, so that you are in a position to help yourself and to help others.

It must be acknowledged, that Reiki is not just a form of healing. It is a path.

Fulfilling your lifes purpose really comes to the fore when you have accessed the first major step towards enlightenment. That first step occurs through Reiki 1.

Reiki 1 is called the foundation maker.
To enable yourself to grow spiritually you need a firm foundation to work upon.
Reiki can give you that. It plants a seed, so you may grow and blossom into the person you are, not the person others want you to be.

Reading this page today, helps you to acknowledge, that that all important step forward
Is only moments away.
We look forward to meeting and connecting with you soon..

Reiki Workshops and Treatments with Reiki Master/Teacher Jason Ritchie and Reiki Master/Practitioner Luis Miguel Alves

You have reached this page for a reason.

Perhaps it is not the first time you have read or heard about Reiki. It is said that from the first time you connect with the energy, that your Reiki Guide has stepped into your aura and is slowly nudging you towards the path to spiritual enlightenment.

Reiki can be described as a healing loving touch.

Reiki is unconditional love, the Universal Life force Energy.

Reiki can be divided into two words.

Firstly Rei which means Universal and Ki which is light, energy, chi or Manna.

It is energy channelled from source. The source we all come from connect to and return.
It is as simple as that.

It was re-discovered by Mikao Usui in the late 1800s while he was on a meditation fasting for 21 days on Mount Karuma in Japan. During the 21 days he received an attunement in the form of a bright light, symbols and mantras.

Since then Reiki has been passed down through generations.
Please visit our Reiki Lineage to find out our Reiki (Family Tree)

Many people feel that Reiki is just a form of healing. It is not. It is a way of life.

Adopting Reiki into your life, you are able to heal yourself on a mental emotional, physical and spiritual level. You are also able to send healing to your loved ones as well as every human being who lives on the planet .

Apart from that, Reiki is positive energy that helps you to gain confidence and the ability to believe in the self. Reiki can help you manifest your desires and fulfil your ambitions.

As you work with the energy, your spiritual vibration will lift so that you can access greater depths of who you are as an individual. More than that, you can access your divine purpose.

-His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama-

Why is healing the aura so important?

The Aura is part of you. It is your energy field, an extention of you.
When you receive a cut to the body, sustain an injury or undergo an operation, any where where there is a tear or cut to your body, so to the aura undergos a tear or cut.

This is why healing is so important. Conventional medicine is unable to heal the aura. The only form of healing that can occur in this are is healing light from source through the power of healing.

Let us take an example.
A man sustains an injury of a broken arm. The arm is damaged and there is need for a cut to the body in order to repair the break. Already the man has terrified thoughts and anguish that he has projected into his own aura. What we send out to the aura, we later diject and become. Therefore the aspect of healing the thought process also comes into play. Reiki works on all levels of being, healing what needs to be addressed. Reiki is an intelligence and knows exactly where and what to heal at the given time.

As the knife goes into the skin, the knife also cuts the aura. After the operation the cut is sewn up but the aura is left with a tear or hole. When un dealt with this creates a weakness in the bodies defenses as well as leaving the body open for negative as well as positive influences. If there are a few cuts to the aura, in time the aura becomes weaker and the person becomes affected with various aches and pains. Apart from the physical aspects, mental emotional experiences can cause harm to the auric field.

Lets take this man who has sustained the injury. He is left traumatised. This trauma creates a seed in the auric field. If this man for example then had an argument with a family member, and the argument caused emotional disturbance, so much so that he could not let go of the past, this too would create a seed. Everytime you have an argument, a fight, a fear and doubt a worrying thought pattern and so forth, you are planting seeds into your aura.

As the seeds sit there , they find the weak points. From here they grow roots to find weaknesses in the body. This is where pain and disturbance is felt in the body.
We tend only to go to a doctor when we feel pain, often leaving it til it gets unbearable before we do anything about it.
Orthodox medicine steps in and deals with the physical pain. They do not however deal with the auric field, often the area where the problem manifested.

Auric psychic surgery is an option. We teach this art on Reiki 3 A.R.T. BUT in some cases with students who are advanced and work in the complementry field, teaching it on Reiki 2. We teach you how to enter into the auric field and feel what the problem is. You also work with the client, in a light hypnotherapy session aiding them and working with them to release the problem. Through the hypnotised state your are guided to the area where the problem sits. The student is then shown how to cut into the aura, release the problem and the seed, roots and sensation to then seal the area. Healing is then administered. We have over 20 case studies, where after this treatment the pain is relieved and the client is able to feel a sense of peace.
A full recovery may take a few sessions, but the psychic work on the aura is necessary to treat the whole person.

Today in the uk and further afield, Reiki is used in hospitals, hospices and other medical fields as it is now realised that healing does benefit the client/patient to access wellness.

Your Reiki Questions- 21 days and self Healing, is it necessary?

Reiki 1 is perhaps the most important level of Reiki that there is . Why? Because it is the re-connection process, in teaching you that you are a channel to the uncondional love and light from the Universe. Reiki 1 needs to be thorough in its teaching menthods to teach you how to relax, meditate, visualize, empower yourself and most importantly, heal yourself.

This is not going to be achieved over night. Reiki is not only a form of healing. it is much more than that, it is a path. I will give you a couple of examples to back up my views. I have been teaching Reiki for 10 years. In that time I have kept various case studies of various students who have either worked or not worked upon themselves.

You obviously would be taught that attuning to Reiki 1, your level of consciousness raises a vibration. Therefore giving healing to yourself assists in working with the new vibration and harmonizing the self.

Here is a case study.

On this particular course there were two students. One woman in her mid 40s who had already taken a Reiki 1 course, but felt that she did not get a good experience. (She was not taught to give herself healing in the 21 days).
So on this occaision she took a refresher course. Many of the techniques and practises taught on our workshop were not familar with her, which brings questions to the fore of what Masters and Teachers actually teach on courses.

The second student was an art teacher in a local comprehensive school. She had a creative block and needed to access her sense of creativity so she could teach fulfillingly. Other than that it was a friends illness of Cancer that brought her to the door of Reiki. She wanted to help her.


The workshop brought many mirrors and facets to the surface. Often self healing can bring up the feelings of fight or flight syndrome.

Reiki 1 teaches you to put yourself first. If I use the example of a plane crashing. The pilot tells us to put the mask on ourselves so we are in a position to help others. This is exactly the same. We have to be well within in order to be ready to help others. Reiki 1 teaches you to do something for yourself.

After the course the two students entered into the 21 day cleansing period. Here we ask students to keep a diary for 21 days detailing their self healing, meditations and thoughts and experiences. Within 21 days 90% of students change their life in a more positive direction.

They returned after the 21 days.
**The person who had done the refresher course had not changed.
why?
Because she did not work on herself
She was able to give healing to others, but not to herself.
She commented that she did not feel she deserved to give herself the healing.

**Mikao usui had brought in the 5 reiki principles after he realised that the beggers were returning to the beggers camp where he was working giving healing to the sick. The five reiki principles assisted in giving them self acceptance, and a realization that they deserved.

In our teachings we now ensure that we heal the students thoughts. Using the 5 reiki principles as a template we are able to heal the students individual thoughts assisting in a positive life change.

The second student , the art teacher, gave herself healing everyday and wrote a diary.
Her life changed considerably and enjoyed the sense of peace she found within when giving herself self healing treatments. Her comments were "Ive come home to me"
She found inspiration and created and exhibition of her works.
She found that she was able to work with students better and also projected out her dream of running her own retreat teaching art. On her personal life her life changed considerably for the better. She was able to say the word NO.


Interestingly many students who enter onto our workshops and courses, are PEOPLE PLEASERS. They put everyone elses needs before themselves-WHY?
This is often deriving from a need to be wanted, needed, loved or accepted.

This is why Reiki 1 is so important.

SELF HEALING IN THE 21 DAYS IS PARAMOUNT

Your Reiki questions- Addressing Reiki 1

There are many questions surrounding the method and teaching of Reiki. Numerous people have had differing experiences and questions regarding the way in which Reiki is taught.

Why does each Reiki Master Teach Reiki in a different way?

The difference between Reiki and a Religion is that although there are foundations there is no strict rule that sets a president on the way a Reiki workshop should be taught. Primarily the outline of what Reiki is, the history of Reiki and the hand positions for self healing and healing of others really is a necesesity. Of course receiving the attunements is paramount. Religion tends to be fixed in the way it is taught, yet Reiki is taught from a spiritual perspective which encompases all Religions and belief systems.

Some Reiki Masters adopt their own form of Reiki, with a belief system that they feel comfortable with. Therefore there are around 50 differing forms of Reiki all deriving from the tradional simple form. This is not wrong. It has the Masters essence and belief thus creating a comfortable way forward in their teaching of the workshop.

Personally I feel I need to follow the essence in its pure form. Other than calling it Reiki I dont wish to add something else to its meaning. Reiki means Universal Energy. Therefore for example some people might call it Rainbow Reiki, Dolphin Reiki Wicca Reiki, Violet flame Reiki. I feel by adding the fore running words, the source and energy is restricted, thus falling into the same trap as Religion.

Religion as a rule means simply to "Re- Align" to "Re Connect" thus religion was brought into our lives to teach us that there was a higher being. Something greater than ourselves that connects us the the universal energy. Each Religion has come along and put their stamp on their so called belief. Books have been written thus creating control factors into society and feeding wars and troubles. The viscious circle.

Life is very simple. We are born as channels into this world, even when we were in the womb we are a channel to energy. Yet when we are in the womb we absorb the energy of the mother and all that she experiences. The first three years of a childs life is the most important, as it has not learned to defend itself. The baby soaks up everything the good and bad, the circumstance it finds itself in and this goes towards moulding its personality fears doubts and intelligence. It also affects the channel. This creates blocks. As the child grows up it continues to absorb everything through its aura, personal space/energy field. All thoughts he/she thinks, he/she becomes. A pattern evolves. 90% of us are taught and conditioned to believe that if we want to connect to God or something greater then we have to go to church and believe in Jesus God, Krishna, Buddha etc.. We are not taught that we are a channel for light and are connected to the universe.

The chakras need to be understood and I feel should be taught on a Reiki course as these blockages that come in the form of mental emotional physical or spiritual often form in the chakras prebventing the energy flow to flow freely around the body.
If there is a fear factor for example in the mental emotional framework then there would be a limitation of energy flow through all of the chakras creating imbalances and possible ill health especially after a period of time.

When pain is felt in the body, it is the bodies why of telling the person something is out of balance and something needs to be addressed. The aura is part of the human body. An awareness of auras I feel should also be incorporated into the workshops. Feeling and understanding the aura, what it is and how it works. When a person sustains injury to the physical he/she also sustains injury to the aura. This is why auric healing is important. Additionally when you project out negative thought forms you send them to the universe but also your energy field. If healing is not administered to this area and cut and cleansed then the mind and spirit can absorb this information and you become what you think.

Mikao Usui placed 5 reiki priciples into his work. Many other spiritual belief systems work on similar lines. Really this assists in healing your thoughts. I have created a program where we teach each student to access their thoughts, often from the subconscious state, and turn them into affirmations. Giving Reiki to their thoughts assists in accessing who they are.

Reiki should really be a life changing experience. The majority of our students have had profound awakenings and have gone on to excell in their areas of work. Sometimes, in fact more often than not changing their life for the better. Just being a part of that is deeply rewarding. However we only plant a seed and you the student are the ones who are able to help yourselves.

Learning, we feel should be fun and a memorable occaision, "the day my life improved"
Apart from the traditional and ancient teachings of Reiki we also include some fun activities that assist in accessing the inner child, embracing the leader within and taking charge of your life. Anger management is also encouraged through Reiju empowerments and the Hatsu Rei Ho technique. We include outdoor locations such as the beach, the lakes, the trees and so forth.

Deopending on the students present we meet your needs. It maybe that we work with Angels, nature spirits, the higherself, the violet flame ascended masters, Mikao Usui ,Jeshua, Buddha, Krishna, or whatever energy is needed.

Connecting to the Higher-self

Connecting to the Higherself

What is the Higherself?

The higher-self is part of your whole existance yet resides on another vibration that is You. You may understand it as the God self, thus a part of God that is living part of your consciousness state. Some people feel that the Higher-self assists with the element of intuition and inner guidance. You may believe in Angels or Guides, but perhaps their existance is part and parcel of the whole in form of your higherself. This would be true if the higherself was part of God, as that is the highest aspect of Vibration in the Universal Consciousness.

The Higherself is also thought to be energy, powerul vibrating positive energy that contains all your lives that you have lived before as well as those you are actually living through time and space. It is possible that we are living duality lives through a matrix. The Higherself connects to that matrix enabling us to receive messages through meditation and visualiztion.

Recently I took a group of people into meditation to connect them to their higherself. There experiences were profound. Each one connected to the essence and the power of who they are as human beings. Each one saw bright and colourful energy either in the form of golden light or rainbow colours or shapes. When each person connected with the higherself they were able to communicate and become intouch with the energy that they often forget to get in touch with on a daily basis.

In fact how many of you actually trust your intuition? How many of you live your life connected with the higher self. Truefully, very little, a small percentage I feel. The reason is that if we trusted our intuition, we would not worry. We would know and trust what the solution was to our everyday actions and deeds. I feel if we were taught to get in touch with our higherselves from a yound age, then the vibration and consciousness state for mother earth would be in a much more peaceful alignment that where it is right now.

We are taught in a general way that if we want to connect to something higher than ourselves, then we must follow a religion and or a belief system that dictates or shows to us how we must lead our lives to sustain the best life that "God" feels is best for us. Yet could you imagine if that changed? Imagine that from a young age we were taught that we could enter into meditation to connect to a higher consciousness, our higher selves to find the answers to our everyday problems. We have a direct access to God. We are part of that energy. We are the God energy.

The real God energy is uncondtional Love. Unconditional love knows no boundries and makes no restiction. Unconditional means just that. So where in your life do you find an unconditional way of being? What part of the self acts from this point? If we are truely connected to the higherself, then we have found the peace in the world that we all strive to achieve. Reaching the higher self we are able to maintain the equilibrium that fulfils our purpose.


Now here is some food for thought. Could it be that most Mediums actually connect to the higherself to receive messages. The higherself could in actual fact store all the information and imprints of life. Are mediums actually psychically connecting to that imprint to relay messages of hope?
It is said that mediums connect with the Hall of Records found in a library on the etheric realms. Could this actually be our higherself that connects to the etheric realms that relays the information on a psychic level to the medium?

I am interested to hear your comments...

During our connection with the higherself we were also able to connect with previous incarnations that had a reflective appearance on the life that the person was currently living. For example, one gentleman said that he saw me as a boy, a chimney sweep in victorian times. My life then was as a lesson to others. I got stuck up the chimney, and died trapped by the fumes of a fire.
Now this gentleman had not been to the meeting before. This was his first time and he knew nothing of my life. Yet he relaid this to me. This made great sense to me as when I was a boy, I developed childhood athsma. On several occaisions I also found myself involved with fires, on a train, in a building which had re-awakened a fear, yet I was unsure of where it stemmed. Clearly he was tapping into my higherself from his higherself to relay the message. On hearing this, it gave clearence and healing to a past incarnacion.


Connecting to the higherself is incredibly powerful and something I feel we must all learn to acknowledge.
