- 2 Sep 2010 - Beatrice von Schlick
- One of the facets of Mastery in Reiki is teaching. Teaching classes allow a master to touch the cultural norms and sensitives of students. Often this is a gift to the master as well as a curiosity, resulting in a deeper understanding of the students, their outer world, and the direct impact on their inner world. Beatrice has an unusual combination of living in Germany and being French. Her personal story has been touched by the chance to teach in both countries. It seems that Reiki touches us... More
- 26 Aug 2010 - Melanie Hoffstead
- A dynamic personality, Melanie gives us a most personal sharing as she traces her Reiki journey with stories. The stories abound with "coincidences," moments of "seizing the day", and the magic of Reiki. Melanie's family's healing weaves through the stories of how she was lead to Hungary, Israel, Germany, and Poland. Melanie's journey with Reiki takes her through many expressions of creativity and she shares this with others in her creative workshops. More
- 19 Aug 2010 - Rahel Warshaw-Dadon
- Rahel, originally from the US, has lived in Jerusalem, Israel since 1979. Because conventional medicine had no answers for her, in 1987, she started looking for an alternative. In 1991 she finally discovered Reiki, but four more years passed before she found a Reiki Master and took First Degree training. In 2000, Rahel was initiated as a Reiki Master and in 2003 she and her students founded the Israeli non-profit organization Reiki for Peace. More
- 12 Aug 2010 - Fokke Brink
- Fokke Brink was initiated in 1987 during the time when most Reiki Masters traveled extensively to teach. It was not necessary but the demand was so strong and the intrigue of being called to different countries and cultures was irresistible. He took it a step further and lived in a mobile home for five years, traveling throughout Europe with his beloved partner, Maria. He describes it as being a 24 hour/7 days a week exercise in living Reiki and its principles. The lessons of the journey, inc... More

- 22 Jul 2010 - Tekla Eichhorn
- In searching for interesting research papers, I only had to look on my own desk! Tekla had just sent me her Master's thesis in Cultural Anthropology. She was interested in the "culture" of Reiki and if it made a difference to the society of the people involved. On one hand, she found there was a difference but the difference was not as great as we, in the Reiki community, would like or envision. There were many contradictions of language and behavior that perhaps could be attributed to the hu... More
- 15 Jul 2010 - Angela Zellner with Isabella Petri
- Angela and Isabella are scientists with a desire to explore the questions that many Reiki students and masters have. Is there a difference between the initiations for First Degree, Second Degree, and Master? Can a scientific measurement tell if a person has been initiated in a certain form or practice of Reiki? Is there a difference between the energy of Reiki and other healing energies?
What is the nature of Reiki as an energy? Through a series of circumstances, Angela and Isabella have b... More
- 8 Jul 2010 - Ann Baldwin
- In this second interview, we are privileged to hear Ann's description of her two published experiments, her motivations, and the understandings that came out of the experiments. The experiments were not focused on whether Reiki worked, per se, but on the effect of Reiki, using Reiki as a tool or a part of the experiments. Through the internet, these articles are available on the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine web site, www.liebertonline.com. Volume 12, Number 1, 2006 and Vo... More
- 1 Jul 2010 - Ann Baldwin
- This series of shows is beginning with two interviews with Ann Baldwin, PhD, physiologist, and Reiki Master. She is now engaged in research studies with the University of Arizona in Tucson. Through her work, she met a Reiki student and eventually become one herself. As it is with Reiki, she progressed along a path of mastery. In a natural flow, both of her passions have come together in the completion of two published experiments using Reiki. Having a bit of resistance to speaking the words r... More

- 17 Jun 2010 - Margaret Krum
- A Reiki Master and lover of life, Margaret moved to Hawaii to do spiritual service. She found her spirit resonated with the Island breezes and stayed! Three years ago she found she had breast cancer. Having studied her options, she had surgery and then decided to stay with Alternative approaches for the followup protocol. Her courage to do what her heart spoke is inspiring and is her truth.
Each person who faces the social and medical models has to answer to their own calling. It is not ... More
- 10 Jun 2010 - Aneesha Kranti and Sofia
- At the beginning of October, Aneesha and I started our conversations about treating students who had cancer. This journey of our sharing and of Reiki is shared through her experience with Sofia, a student of hers. Sofia and Aneesha found a way to work with Reiki in this situation. We share it to stimulate the understanding that everyone has their own path. The most important point is to be sure that this is your path and not someone else's. Reiki assists us in finding our true path is in ever... More
- 3 Jun 2010 - Marsha Drozdoff
- In finishing the nine elements at the end of May, I was open for inspiration for the show. As I thought of inspiration, I thought of Marsha Drozdoff. I met Marsha in my early months of treatment at the University Medical Center of the University of Arizona here in Tucson. She has a position in the Radiation department of the hospital and is a Reiki Master. Her long time work in both fields sustained my belief that I could use both worlds to foster health and healing within me. Her stories wil... More
- 27 May 2010 - Viviana Bilezker
- Coming to Reiki in 1988, Viviana gives us a good look at the way the form of teaching has remained essentially the same from that time, when there was basically one form of teaching, to today. In the 1990's masters began to radically change the form of teaching until the practice became known under another name. With Viviana's story of the changes in the Argentine masters community following the devaluation of their peso to the USD, it is clear to see that outside and inner pressures can even... More
- 20 May 2010 - Sue Leibold
- The Form of Teaching element has two common areas of question: the length and timing of the First Degree Class and the amount of money that masters ask of students for each step of the system. In this candid conversation, Sue presents a thoughtful approach to both. She looks into the future as she imagines teaching a special group of people that she works with today. Her considerations and her trust in the circle of exchange gives us some places to go ....without answers but opening questions... More
- 13 May 2010 - Upasana Grugan
- Upasana was introduced into Reiki by one of the first German masters to be initiated. Saman Drescher traveled to Chile from Germany to share his Reiki. Already culture had influenced the way Reiki was taught. And as the Latin American students began to practice, another culture touched the practice. Or perhaps Reiki touched the culture. Both became an intregal part of Upasana's life. Her teaching style reflects the culture and her own love of Reiki. More
- 6 May 2010 - Rick Bockner
- Rick is one of the masters Hawayo Takata initiated. He shares with us his recollections of her classes, her way of teaching, and her presence. Form of Teaching brings together the elements into a class that is offered to students. There are principles of teaching that allow students to begin in the same place. However, each master also gives to the class his or her own personality and flavor. Rick speaks about his journey into finding his style while remaining true to the teachings of the mas... More
- 29 Apr 2010 - Phyllis Furumoto
- Imagine sitting with Phyllis in a cluster of rocks such as this, trading stories and asking questions. This show will be dedicated to those who have written from the radio show site or joined the face book conversations. Many of the inquires are evocative and are of interest to more than just the person who is the questioner. Phyllis is drawn to respond to these sincere openings for conversation and exploration. More
- 22 Apr 2010 - Yoli Deines
- A life long student of the infinite realms of human consciousness and possibility, Yoli shares her understanding and experiences of a Reiki practice. The symbols are a part of this practice that, according to Yoli, brings us to the truth. The conversation between Phyllis and Yoli awakens memories and common experiences for both. Finding a way to articulate the difficult place between an "unbelievable" experience and the connection to everyday life, the two of them provide provocative connecti... More
