I am Carsten, married two little kids, with an Ugandan wife what was arranged by FB through the "friends-help" thing:-) To be married with a black African gets a bigger challenge every day more. My wife prepares to be a nurse-general and has a teachers degree already. I am changing my life/business completely with 2025 as I am looking for a biz what I can do from everywhere. All my life I have been in sales(57 now). As it was time for big changes I was let to a sales on Udemy. There I bought powerful trainings for low money. I have finished my Master spiritual-life-coach and two courses on money-Reiki up to master level. Recently I started Reiki after the original Japanese-System. Finished my Shoden initiation. Now on the way to get my Okuden-Level so I can get into public business. First I did not feel anything... but then many things changed... my soul brought up many things I never wanted to remember again... I am a big fan of Japanese Philosophies etc. Zen, Reiki, Ikigai and finally NAGOMI... I feel very much it needs a lot of people to bring back this "neutrality" and balance. Germany has run too long down the hate-line again. Normally after a terror-attack with people being killed people go for solidarity and support... but nowadays... they spread more fake-news/hate and demonstrate their hate publicly to make it worse for the victims... NAGOMI is my key for spreading Hope and healing... a three-step-program...

I’m Petra, and I live in Huizen, NL (’t Gooi). A year ago, we bought a second home in Italy, and now I enjoy working from both places. In 2020, I was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer and given two years to live. But I trusted my intuition, changed my lifestyle, and turned inward to heal. It worked, last month I was declared healthy, and my perspective on life completely shifted. Now, I’m driven to help others reconnect with themselves through reiki and lifestyle changes. Reiki was new to me until I joined Justin’s Reiki 1 course in January. By the first break, I knew I wanted to become a master—it felt like my true path. Since then, as a Reiki Master, I’ve seen how powerful reiki can be for my clients. I’m excited to be part of this community and passionate about making reiki accessible. I recently launched my first online course and plan to offer reiki sessions in various locations as “spiritual exercise.” I’m also eager to learn how to build a thriving reiki practice.

Building trust and strong relationships with clients is essential in any healing practice, but sometimes things don't go as planned. Whether it's unrealistic expectations, lack of progress, or a personality mismatch, dealing with dissatisfied clients is part of the journey. How do you handle such situations in your Reiki practice? I’m curious to hear your experiences and how you turn these challenging situations into positive outcomes.

If you could give one piece of advice to someone new to Reiki, what would it be? Looking forward to hearing your thoughts! 🙏🏼
