Reiki with Bronwen

Hi, it's me Bronwen Logan, and I've got a question for you. Have you ever picked a tarot card or an oracle card and thought, Wow, that is really true for me right now... but what do I do about it? Well, I have. And, I think I've found an answer. With over 20 years of dedicated meditation practice and instruction, complemented by a deep immersion in both Eastern and Western philosoph...

I’m going to make an unusual suggestion; try being vulnerable.  #energeticattack #openness #vulneralbility #reikiprecepts #bronwenlogan Support the show Check out my website at https://www.

By Bronwen Logan from Reiki with Bronwen. “Reiju is a reminder of one’s unlimited potential and this is why it is often experienced as unique.” The Japanese Art of Reiki by Bronwen Logan and Frans Stiene  Recently I developed an Online Weekly Reiju class. For just 15 minutes a week on Zoom we get together and I perform the ritual of Reiju.  So, what is Reiju and why would you want to do this on a...

By Bronwen Logan from Reiki with Bronwen. If I were to ask Reiki practitioners the question, “Is the system of Reiki a religion?” you would hear a resounding, “No”.  One of the main reasons something is called a religion is because it is structured upon dogma; an institutionalised system. Yes, there are five main elements to the Japanese system of Reiki (it has a structure); meditations and techni...

By Bronwen Logan from Reiki with Bronwen. The story begins with our creation, formed from the energetic blending of heavenly energy and earth energy. Watch as light filters down to join with rising darkness, and from this muddy core a human shape emerges. Sitting there, at the centre of this swirling universe (brewed from dualistic elements), is humanity. This is how we were birthed, into a state...

By Bronwen Logan from Reiki with Bronwen. It happened again. We’re sitting in the Reiki class discussing Reiki treatments and a student pipes up to say, “I don’t know if I can do this, my heart chakra’s blocked”. The responses in the room are fairly standard. Many of the students make small, sad “oh” sounds. Well, I agree, it certainly sounds awful. Almost like a chronic medical condition. #Reiki...

By Bronwen Logan from Reiki with Bronwen. When I imagine the concept of a home, I think of a place where I feel able to completely relax and just be me. There’s no one telling me what I should or shouldn’t do, it’s just me pottering around creating my own level of comfort. This doesn’t mean that I can just make a mess of everything because no-one else is there to keep an eye on me. No. It’s my hom...

By Bronwen Logan from Reiki with Bronwen. I was thinking about how so little has been known about the symptoms of heart attacks in women. So little is known simply because research in the past has focussed almost exclusively on men, leading to unnecessary deaths for women. This disinterest is not a surprise considering we live in a patriarchal society. The word patriarchal is one I’m careful of us...

By Bronwen Logan from Reiki with Bronwen Joshin Kokyu Ho as Breath, Balance, and Being . In the midst of our modern world's chaotic tempo, it's the simplest of human functions that often goes unnoticed – breathing. Yet, it’s this very act of inhalation and exhalation that holds the profound keys to balance, mindfulness, and serenity. Today, we delve into the elegance of the breath, its b...

For my child…. After living together for many years, your father and I married with the intention of one day extending our family. When, and exactly how extended, we didn’t know – but it was a part of our unwritten contract. #Reiki #Reikiparenting #BronwenLogan #Reikibabies Support the show Check out my website at https://www.

The Reiki Precepts are one of the five elements of the system of Reiki, typically presented as five simple guidelines. You can find them below, with the refrain “For today only” added to each one to give the practitioner an understanding of how to place the precept in life.  #Reiki #BronwenLogan #reikiprecepts Support the show Check out my website at https://www.

I want to share something truly special with you— a meditation practice that bridges the wisdom of the 5 Reiki Precepts with the elemental forces of nature . I love finding new ways to work with the Reiki Precepts and there is no better way to do this than through the 5 basic elements of nature. Nature is what we live in and are made of. We are nature and when we live the Reiki precepts we remembe...

Many Reiki students spend time collecting lineages from different teachers. This may stem from a desire to feel more connected to their practice, and often at the foundation of this is the notion that the shorter the lineage the better it is. Is this true? #Reiki #Bronwen Logan #PrimordialLineage #Reikilineage Support the show Check out my website at https://www. ReikiwithBronwen.com my facebook p...

By Bronwen Logan for Reiki with Bronwen. I love to cook and one of the elements that I find quite mystical in this alchemical process is the use of seeds. Among the many regional cuisines that captivate my taste buds, Indian food stands out as a favourite. In fact, it was my deep appreciation for Indian cooking that sparked a two-year adventure in India itself and my consequent entry into the syst...

By Bronwen Logan from Reiki with Bronwen. One of my early memories is of a children’s board book that doubled as a TV cartoon and served as a gateway into a universe of endless possibilities. You might remember it as well: “The Little Engine That Could.” What resonated with me was its refrain, “I think I can, I think I can,” which lit a fire of inner strength within me. To those of you who know me...

By Bronwen Logan from Reiki with Bronwen. I often hear people sharing that they are Empaths. It’s a popular term and lots of people nod knowingly when they hear it. But what does this mean? To be empathetic in my mind is to show empathy – to understand the pain that others are going through. But is that what an Empath does? It seems to me that when people share that they are Empaths, they are lett...

Remember those moments when you try something out for the very first time and miraculously, it works! Meanwhile people everywhere are trying really hard to perfect that particular art. It might be you throwing a dart at a dartboard and hitting the bullseye on your very first shot ever. Everyone laughs and calls out, “Beginner’s luck!” Why does this happen? And, more importantly, could you do it ag...

How do I describe a Reiki treatment? This is a standard question we discuss in Reiki classes. The answer… sharing. Of course, there are many avenues you can take to explain something as esoteric as the system of Reiki. It often depends upon who you are talking to as to the depth or angle we take. Yet, sharing is a word that most always comes up for me. #Reiki #BronwenLogan #ReikiTreatments Support...

Remove the concept of a linear life and what do we have? Just things. And that is real life… moments of things. The nostril-guzzling smell of the daphne flower. The oddness of the rooster’s crow in the dark. Toast spread with butter, ripe avocado, red tomato, thinly sliced onion and salt and pepper (oh, and just a sprinkle of balsamic). #Reiki #BronwenLogan Support the show Check out my website at...

Incorporating Reiki into your daily routine can offer numerous physical, emotional, and spiritual benefits. By integrating Reiki practices into everyday life, you can reduce stress, maintain balance, and promote overall well-being. These are the benefits of your self-care. They are wide-ranging and because of that we think of our practice as a way of life rather than one specific practice. However...

Motivating yourself to practice can be a different process for everyone, depending on your personality and the reason you are practicing in the first place. I know what it’s like and I understand the frustration of trying to recreate a routine in your life once it’s flown out the window. Regardless of how or why you came upon your interest in the system of Reiki, the following are five easy steps...

Recently I heard a eulogy for a group of firemen who had died during Black Summer, the terrible 2019 fires in Australia. The eulogy went: “You were the centre of the universe.” My initial reaction was – how could they ALL be the centre of the universe? That is physically not possible. But, of course, they were equally special, equally important, they WERE the centre of the universe that they exist...

When we talk about the system of Reiki and the five elements that it consists of, it often sounds as if each of these elements exists in isolation: meditations, precepts, hands-on healing, symbols and mantras and reiju. Which, if we think about it, we know is not true. How can we meditate without the precept be true to your way, or how could we perform reiju without the precept do not worry? The s...

By Bronwen Logan for Reiki with Bronwen. There are these little miracles we enact everyday without seeming to notice them and then there are their secrets… When we reach out our hands to someone in an affectionate hug, when we clasp them in a welcome greeting, when we console with a back rub, when we hold ourselves in grief, when we sleep with our head upon a chest – feet entwined, when we respond...

By Bronwen Logan for Reiki with Bronwen. I am open to receive whatever it is that I may need at this exact moment in time. Intent is the initial, directed thought that flickers across your mind – often before you are even consciously aware that you have begun the thinking process. This directed thought sets a process in motion. It stimulates your energy to trigger an action. The action might be pi...
