H.The
Threshold Reiki Audio Glossary
Non Japanese people often
misporonounce many of
the Reiki terms, as they are not aware that the English like spelling
we
see (for the oriignal Kanji characters) is actually written in Romaji -
a romanized phoetic language to help us pronounce each word. Read

H.Perfecting
Reiki Attunements and Reiju
I find that for
potentially a really good energy awakening
or transfer, one needs to be extremely well focused on the recipient,
extremely
well focused on the energy, and of course be able to hold that energy
to
a greater degree than the recipient.
