    Reiki in Japan with Lena Takahashi and Muniqui Muhammad

    In this episode of the Reiki Lifestyle Podcast, Colleen and Robyn welcome Lena Takahashi and Muniqui Muhammad from Healing Land Reiki in Japan. They share what it's like to practice and teach Reiki in the country where Reiki began and why many people are surprised to learn that Reiki is still not widely understood in Japan the way it is in the West. Lena and Muniqui tell the story of how Reiki found them through synchronicity, including a "Reiki handbook" that sat on a shelf for fourteen years before it became the key that opened their path. They describe the impact of their first Reiki sessions, the clarity and inner quiet they experienced, and how that turned into a dedication to share Reiki as a practical, life-changing practice. They also talk about what it means to be a Reiki Master as a lifelong student, staying open-minded, continuing to study, and valuing evidence-based Reiki history alongside direct personal experience with Reiki energy. And their journey to become ICRT Licensed Teachers in Japan.  A central part of the conversation is Mount Kurama and the relationship Lena and Muniqui have built with the mountain and temple community. Lena shares the full story of helping bring the World Peace Reiki Grid to Mount Kurama, the timing, and the years-long process that led to its official acceptance. You'll also hear about: Why self-practice comes first, and how personal change naturally draws people to you Technique vs. energy, and why there are many right ways to practice Healing Land Reiki's center in Kyoto, plus private and group visits to Mount Kurama The May Full Moon Ceremony (Wesak Festival)on Mt. Kurama and why they will share this profound experience with Reiki students.  Their journey in the ICRT Licensed Reiki Master Teacher program and what professional ethics reveal Healing Land Reiki: HealingLandReiki.com Instagram/Facebook: Healing Land Reiki Muniqui on Reddit/Instagram: Brother in the East Reiki Lifestyle: Reikilifestyle.com Find the podcast on your favorite app and on YouTube. **DISCLAIMER** This episode is not a substitute for seeking professional medical care but is offered for relaxation and stress reduction, which supports the body's natural healing capabilities.

In this guided Reiki journey, Colleen Benelli leads you inward to the third heaven, a place of non-dual light and divine compassion where all there is, is love.

This journey is designed to help you "complete the completions" of those old cycles. By visiting the River of Peace and the Field of Possibilities, you will learn to hear your own inner voice without the noise of the world. In this Reiki Journey, you will: Unify the Four Minds: Align your Divine Mind, Heart Mind, Gut Mind, and Earth Mind. Release Energetic Cords: Dissolve attachments to old stories, generational expectations, and collective fears at the River of Peace.

    Manifestation in Chaos: Stability, Kindness, and the Year of the Fire Horse

    Learn how to use Reiki for manifestation during times of collective chaos. In this session, we explore the powerful energetic shift from the Year of the Snake to the Year of the Fire Horse and how to maintain internal stability when the world feels wobbly. We discuss the "Tree of Life" energy, the science of kindness, and how to lift your frequency above collective disturbances (egregores) to reclaim your creativity and joy. Navigating the "In-Between" We are currently in a rare overlap where the final "shedding" of the Year of the Snake meets the active arrival of the Fire Horse. This teaching explains why you may feel "blocked" and how to prioritize stability during this transition. Egregores and Collective Thought Forms An Egregore is a collective thought form created when many people focus on the same fear or worry. Learn how to use Reiki to lift your energy into higher frequencies (the 12 Heavens) to stay clear and conscious. The Pathway to Joy Manifestation requires a frequency shift. We discuss the "Chain of Activation": Notice Beauty: Find one objective point of beauty in your environment. Activate Gratitude: Allow that beauty to spark a genuine "thank you." Find Joy: Let the gratitude soften the heart and open the door to manifestation. The Power of Kindness Reflecting on the insights of Paul Stamets, we discuss how random acts of kindness are a fundamental human trait that restores stability to our greater communities and ourselves. Eagle, Mouse, and Inner Vision Eagle Vision: The soul's perspective, seeing the path is intact. Mouse Vision: The immediate, practical step right in front of you. Inner Vision: Your intuitive guidance that bridges the two.

    Reiki Journey for Stability: Grounding Creativity & Manifestation

    Experience a guided Reiki and shamanic journey to anchor your internal stability. This journey is the companion to our teaching on the transition from the Year of the Snake to the Year of the Fire Horse. As we navigate collective chaos and "disturbances in the field," this journey helps you align your Divine Mind with your human presence. We travel to the Third Heaven and the Hall of Gifts and Nourishments to release ancestral cords, receive spiritual nourishment, and awaken the "Tree of Life" within you. Use this practice to clear the fog of the world, activate your inner vision, and prepare for the new beginnings of 2026. Key Spiritual Transitions in This Journey Aligning your Multiple Minds We begin by using the Mental-Emotional symbol (SHK) to align the Divine Mind with your heart mind, gut mind, and earth mind. This creates the "Authentic Intellect" needed for clear discernment during chaotic times. The Hall of Gifts & Nourishment In the enlightened realm of the Third Heaven, we enter a great cathedral of spirit. Here, you receive specific gifts of Creativity, Curiosity, and Innovation. This is where we replenish the energy spent on "stability" so you have the fuel to manifest. Completing Ancestral Cycles We utilize the Distance Symbol (HSZSN) to bridge through time, completing ancestral histories that are ready to be let go. By releasing these cords, you claim the "love of thousands" while leaving behind the burdens that no longer serve your lineage. Eagle and Mouse Vision Integration As we return to the physical realm, we practice shifting between the high-level perspective of the Eagle and the immediate, detailed focus of the Mouse. This ensures that your spiritual insights become practical, daily actions. Navigating Spiritual Stability How can I stay stable when the world feels chaotic? Stability is found by aligning your core "Tree of Life" energy. This journey guides you to connect with the deep roots of the Earth and the branches of the Heavens, allowing you to stay present and kind even when external energies are "wobbly." What are the "Living Waters of Peace"? In this journey, the River of Life represents pure consciousness and creative flow. Drinking these waters helps wash away "collective static" and corded attachments to worldly worries.
