About Margaret

Vision
Reiki is more that a physical healing modality. It is a way of life, based on the precepts put forth by its founder Mikao Usui in the early 20th century:
"Just for today, do not anger, do not fear, be grateful, be true to your way and your being, have compassion for yourself and all living beings."
