Gloria Spackman places her hands on a client’s temples and sits quietly without moving for several minutes. It doesn’t look like much is going on, but as Spackman moves her hands around, a hum of energy is working, she said. After years of experience as a reiki practitioner, Spackman said she can feel when she finds a blocked area of negative energy, the kind of patches she said can cause stress, pain and sickness.
“I start at the head. There are hand placements that you use,” said Spackman, who began learning the techniques five or six years ago. “All I do is place my hands on them, and let the reiki energy flow out of my hands and into their body.”
The practice, rooted in Japan, is based on the philosophy that a universal life energy flows through people and has a powerful affect on how they feel.
“What I do and what all reiki healers do is let that life force energy channel through my hands,” said Spackman, who lives and practices in Wilmington.
She became interested in it after family members were dealing with health issues. That got Spackman looking into nontraditional and alternative treatments. Spackman, a high school guidance counselor by day, learned the techniques through The International Center for Reiki Training, reaching the Masters level three years ago.
“Last summer, I took their highest level – the Karuna level,” she said, adding that it means compassionate being.
Now, she leads workshops around town or meets individually with clients who are stressed out or having health issues. Spackman said she often sees clients with headache complaints.
“When I put my hands on their head, I move with the headache pain, and the pain actually moves,” she said. “They can feel it move. They can feel it diminish.”
Back and hip pains are other common complaints, but Spackman said she also sees people with chronic problems like asthma.
“The key is that deep relaxation. That allows the body, the immune system to kick in and help whatever’s going on,” she said.
Spackman points out, however, that she sees the treatment as complementary to traditional medical care, especially for serious health problems.
“I’m not a doctor, and that’s something that they’ll need to understand,” she said.
Ryan Shepard started seeing Spackman several months ago and has treatments once a week.
“I have health issues, and I haven’t really gotten any answers from standard medicine, so I’ve pretty much been going the holistic route,” said Shepard, who lives in Wilmington. “I think it kind of makes you at least do a lot of self reflection and so I think it’s good for that. Hopefully it’ll make me better, but we’re still working on that.”

for Reiki Training
A Brief Overview
Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It is administered by “laying on hands” and is based on the idea that an unseen “life force energy” flows through us and is what causes us to be alive. If one’s “life force energy” is low, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy.
The word Reiki is made of two Japanese words – Rei which means “God’s Wisdom or the Higher Power” and Ki which is “life force energy”. So Reiki is actually “spiritually guided life force energy.”
A treatment feels like a wonderful glowing radiance that flows through and around you. Reiki treats the whole person including body, emotions, mind and spirit creating many beneficial effects that include relaxation and feelings of peace, security and well-being. Many have reported miraculous results.
Reiki is a simple, natural and safe method of spiritual healing and self-improvement that everyone can use. It has been effective in helping virtually every known illness and malady and always creates a beneficial effect. It also works in conjunction with all other medical or therapeutic techniques to relieve side effects and promote recovery.
An amazingly simple technique to learn, the ability to use Reiki is not taught in the usual sense, but is transferred to the student during a Reiki class. This ability is passed on during an “attunement” given by a Reiki master and allows the student to tap into an unlimited supply of “life force energy” to improve one’s health and enhance the quality of life.
Its use is not dependent on one’s intellectual capacity or spiritual development and therefore is available to everyone. It has been successfully taught to thousands of people of all ages and backgrounds.
While Reiki is spiritual in nature, it is not a religion. It has no dogma, and there is nothing you must believe in order to learn and use Reiki. In fact, Reiki is not dependent on belief at all and will work whether you believe in it or not. Because Reiki comes from God, many people find that using Reiki puts them more in touch with the experience of their religion rather than having only an intellectual concept of it.
While Reiki is not a religion, it is still important to live and act in a way that promotes harmony with others. Dr. Mikao Usui, the founder of the Reiki system of natural healing, recommended that one practice certain simple ethical ideals to promote peace and harmony, which are nearly universal across all cultures.
During a meditation several years after developing Reiki, Dr. Usui decided to add the Reiki Ideals to the practice of Reiki. The Ideals came in part from the five principles of the Meiji emperor of Japan whom Dr. Usui admired. The Ideals were developed to add spiritual balance to Usui Reiki. Their purpose is to help people realize that healing the spirit by consciously deciding to improve oneself is a necessary part of the Reiki healing experience. In order for the Reiki healing energies to have lasting results, the client must accept responsibility for her or his healing and take an active part in it. Therefore, the Usui system of Reiki is more than the use of the Reiki energy. It must also include an active commitment to improve oneself in order for it to be a complete system. The ideals are both guidelines for living a gracious life and virtues worthy of practice for their inherent value.

Beyond the beliefs of any one religion,
there is the truth of the human spirit.
Beyond the power of nations,
there is the power of the human heart.
Beyond the ordinary mind, the power of wisdom,
love, and healing energy are at work in the universe.
When we find peace within our hearts,
we contact these universal powers.
This is our only hope.
Our only hope is to find peace within our hearts.
Is finding peace within our hearts an illusion? Is finding peace within our hearts possible? If finding peace within our hearts is not an illusion, then how is it possible to find peace within our hearts?
The power of the human heart is Love.
Is the power of love in the human heart an illusion? Is the power of love in the human heart possible? If the power of love in the human heart is not an illusion, then how is the power of love in the human heart possible?
Love and healing energy are at work in the universe.
Universal power is love and healing energy.
The human spirit is truth.
The power of wisdom is beyond the ordinary mind.
What the above means is simply this:
Still your ordinary mind
Connect with the human spirit
Connect with the power of wisdom beyond.
The Universal power of love and healing energy is found all around us
Peace and love resides deep within the heart.
This is the truth.
My Truth
I have this passion for healing
I feel this deep within my Soul. I cannot escape this feeling.
When I go through my learning spurts
My bones, body and heart aches.
I cry, I wonder why?
I find the answers deep within
The aches and pains disappear.
Once again my heart is filled with love and peace.
MAY YOUR HEARTS BE AT PEACE.
ALL MY LOVE
ZAIDA

During the month of March 2008 I taught my very first Reiki classes. Below are the photos of my very proud, first three Reiki babies. Just wanted to say, thank you again, for Saturdays reiki session. It was truly amazing and well worth it. I hope your Sunday class went well.
By the way, for the past few weeks, I always wake up with headaches, being restless at night and getting dehydrated. Sunday morning (after previous reiki self healing we did in class) I woke up refreshed, happy, peaceful and was happy. This is also the first workshop I ever attended, where I felt absolutely relaxed and calm. You truly made a difference for me.!! Thanks
Love, Charl Steenkamp, Assistant Director: GIS Department of Water Affairs
Mondays are usually my worst day, my heart always drops when I enter the hospital. However, during the drive to Worcester, I started using the techniques which was taught in the Reiki class. To my amazement everything went smoothly, the amount of people and their usual ailments were the same, but , I, had changed. I felt relaxed, calm and peaceful the entire day.
One of my patients had a pain in her back. While examining her, I kept my hands on her back for a few seconds. When she got up from the couch she commented “I don’t know what you did but the pain is gone” Her pain, I realized, was caused by stress !!!! I was doubly amazed. Reiki is really awesome. Thank You.

I was a Reiki sceptic for many years but after I had my first treatment I realized I had to open my mind. After learning Shoden (Level 1 Reiki) I am able to manage my stress levels better by identifying my stressors and consciously working against them using Reiki techniques. Learning about Reiki is truly an investment in yourself.

Don’t say you’re not important
It simply isn’t true
The fact that you were born
Is proof God has a plan for you.
The path may seem unclear right now
But one day you will see
That all that came before
Was truly meant to be
God wrote the book that is your life
That’s all you need to know
Each day that you are living
Was written long ago
God only writes best sellers
So be proud of who you are
Your character is important
In this book you are the
“STAR”
Peace be upon you
I have great pleasure in sharing the above poem with you which I received many years ago. At that time I was asking the “W” questions, “Why was I born? Why am I suffering? Why is my life so difficult? Why am I always miserable, depressed, crying, Why, Why, Why?”
I did not see the plan ALLAH had for me
Many years later I was guided to do Reiki, which I knew nothing about except that it is was “something of the
unknown”. After the first level, I just “knew” this was for me. I did not fear the unknown and I loved the spiritual contact. I plunged on and on ……………………………
Within a year I completed the Reiki Master/Teacher level.
Six months later, I resigned from my secure job and took another great plunge into the unknown. I wrote two big and bold affirmations (Clever Women Work From Home & World Headquarters for the Joyfully Jobless) and stuck them on a wall where I could see them all day long. I remained “Joyful” while Jobless”. I realized all that came before was truly meant to be
Nine months later I taught my first Reiki class, and in the process gave birth to my first “Reiki Babies” I AM proud of who I AM
Today, 01 April, 2008, I found the above poem. Glancing through my diary I realize, in January of the current year, 2008, I had written in big bold letters I “SHINE” ……… I AM A ……… “STAR”
Write the best seller of your life.
Be guided by Allah/God and the Power of his Spiritual Life Force energy called Reiki. YOU ARE ALL STARS

Garnering more than 2,600 Platinum and Gold certifications and selling over 250 million records around the world, the legendary artist has performed with everyone from Frank Sinatra to Willie Nelson. Julio is the first and only performer to receive the Diamond Record Award by the Guinness Book of World Records – for selling more records in more languages than any other artist in history. With each new release, Julio Iglesias managed to top his previous successes and, along the way, become one of the brightest and most recognizable stars in the world of popular music.
In possession of one of popular music’ great voices, Julio has crossed all barriers – even that of languages – with his electrifying series of international hits. Aside from his breakneck pace of recording, special appearances, touring, TV show and numerous awards and recognitions, Julio was also appointed as a Special Representative for the Performing Arts, a title he holds to this day. He points out that UNICEF supplies an outlet for him to impact the lives of so many he is otherwise unable to reach. “The world has given so much, it’s important to give something back”, he says.

During the day the Sunflower stands tall, majestic, proud, firmly grounded between heaven and earth, bright sunny blooms face the sun merrily spewing healing energies across Mother Earth.
When the sun sets, their heads slowly bow down to thank Mother Earth for their heavenly day. During the long nights their roots slowly draw the healing energies up from the very centre of the earth while their bodies rest, quiet and peaceful.
When the Sun rises, they awaken, rejuvenated and fresh, their heads slowly start to rise…..
The process starts all over again……Such is life
During the day we stand, tall and proud, during the night we rest, quiet and peaceful.
Idyllically, this is how life should be.
But, is it?????????????
PEACE BE UPON YOU
