Retail Therapy:  When a fashion empire calls in reiki practitioners for their annual wellness event. We were happy to help these folks reduce their stress and ergonomic issues. 

Reiki is one of the greatest gifts we can give, so it was a pleasure to serve the Humboldt Park community in a pre-holiday service event. 

Our first appearance at the Federal Aviation Administration was so popular, we were invited back. Read all about it (and see the photo recap) here. The world is ready for a paradigm shift and the Reiki Brigade is ready to facilitate it with reiki demos and presentations.

Music to my ears! "We have been given a green light to offer Reiki at all VAs." —from an email I received from an administrator at a local VA.

Epileptic seizures are misfiring of bioenergetic impulses. Reiki clears, balances, and fortifies the bioenergetic field. We would love to see research on the impact of reiki sessions on the intensity and frequency of epileptic seizures. This event moved us a bit closer. 

The Reiki Brigade is raising awareness of the benefits of reiki within the medical community by offering demos at national conferences. IM4US was a perfect fit, and many decision-makers had wonderful reiki experiences that day. 

The Reiki Brigade is always looking to connect with other service providers and institutions charged with caring for underserved communities. The Garfield Park Community Fair was a jackpot. 

With national security and travel legislation at the forefront of the news, the folks at the FAA are under a lot of stress. We were happy to share reiki with employees of this governmental institution, and experienced the widest range of reactions to date! 

The Reiki Brigade introduced reiki to veterans and active service members at the JBVA Stand Down. We gave. We received. We laughed. We cried. We left feeling purposeful and grateful. 

For years we have wanted to offer reiki to Chicago's Finest to help alleviate the constant stress associated with keeping us all safe. We finally received an invitation and were well received. Great day. 

In order to have numbers we could distribute, we conducted a program evaluation of 135 participants in the Jesse Brown VA volunteer reiki program. The results are amazing. 

In 2016 we offered nearly 1,600, 10-minute sessions within underserved populations and established institutions to raise awareness and availability of the benefits of reiki. Watch our recap video for the highlights of this record-breaking year!

Today's youth are our future. It was such an honor to help this group access reiki as a means of self-care and to share throughout their community. 

We've been looking for a way to make in-roads into the Chicago PD. As the Universe would have it, an opportunity came with the PD offering healing services to the community.
