Phyllis was the lineage bearer for Reiki, Usui Shiki Ryoho. Her Birthday was on August 22nd, exactly one week after Mikao Usui’s birthday.

She may or may not be in your Reiki initiation lineage, you may or may not have met her, but you may honour her as the spiritual lineage bearer.

The Reiki Association would like to invite you to join a Reiki Share near you to honour Phyllis and strengthen your connection with the Spiritual Lineage. If there isn’t a Reiki Share happening near you, please consider offering one. If Reiki Share feels daunting, how about offering a picnic in a park nearby, to be in Reiki with Reiki students in your area.

Phyllis loved gathering people, sharing good food, music and laughter. Share some Reiki stories, some food, some music perhaps with fun and laughter. If you are hosting a Reiki Share, you might like to light a candle and hold stillness and silence for a brief while.

If you are able to offer a Reiki Share on August 22nd, please post the information about your Reiki Share in the comments below. Please include the time, venue, your contact info so that people can get in touch with you, to let you know if they are attending, or if they have any questions.  

If you have any questions and/or if you need support with offering a Reiki Share or finding one, please email shares@reikiassociation.net or contact Tripuri Dunne, our wonderful membership secretary. She has years of experience of organising Reiki Shares and is very supportive and inspiring.

The April 2019 webinar was cancelled as a mark of respect for Phyllis Lei Furumoto. The webinar in May 2019 was offered as a tribute to honour Phyllis.

With so much emotion in the Global Reiki community, TRA Council decided to open up the May webinar to non members on this occasion. You may be aware that usually, TRA webinars are for TRA members only. It was very heart warming to see more than 80 people join us for this webinar, from many different parts of the world, across various time zones.

Our dedicated webinar team helped create a wonderfully healing virtual circle across the globe. They put together a beautiful slide show that was full of memories for so many people around the globe as Phyllis had the gift of connecting with everybody she worked with. Joyce Winnough, Phyllis’s partner also shared a slide show of photographs with us. If you would like a recording of the webinar it is available on the webinars page.

We are very aware that only a few people got to share during the limited time of the webinar. If you would like to share some memories of your time with Phyllis, we have created a page on our website to honour Phyllis. There are some heartwarming sharings there already.

Please feel free to share here how the webinar felt for you.

The Summer is finally drawing to a close and the first event of the Autumn is the Takata archives which are being held in Birmingham. These were originally shown in London in the Spring and are a fascinating insight into Hawayo Takata and her journey into bringing Reiki to the West in the 1930’s. There are still places left so book now.

Council is supporting the St George’s project, and now there is another chance for Reiki practitioners to become involved with the NHS. The project is for the North London Hospice and if you are interested in helping there are details on my page once you have logged in.

This month’s webinar is about setting fees for Reiki treatments and is a thorny issue for most practitioners. If you have any thoughts or comments on this subject, head on over to the forum and join in with the debate.

Diary dates:

Webinar 2nd October - Setting Fees for Reiki Treatments with Kate Jones.

Webinar 6th November - "Following a tragedy - Bringing Reiki to the frontline " with Georgina Hood.

Council meeting 6th to 8th November 2018

As I write I am aware that the Gathering will be opening in a few weeks. There are still a few places left but hurry as registration closes on 26th April. It is a brilliant way to get together in community each year. We meet up with friends old and new and generally have a great time together. This year we have Marta Getty as a speaker and it is a privilege to hear stories from one of the elders of our community.

There are other ways of being in community, and circles and shares are some of the other ways. Next month the webinar is on the topic of Reiki shares. If you have never been to one, I urge you to think of holding one in your area. You don’t need to be a Master, just someone who loves Reiki. I started holding Reiki shares when I was a new Reiki person. I still hold shares many years later. Join us at the webinar to find out how you can set up a sharing group.

Council has had a busy year with a lot of new initiatives and it looks like being the same next year too.

Council is looking for three new members this year so if you can give some time to help in the running of our association, we would be pleased to have you step up at the General Meeting on the Sunday morning at Bucklands Hall.
