This was our 3rd visit to the Nymba wa Mzee in Kasarani this year. We had been in February, March, and now on May 31st.
The LHSG Sevaks for this Seva were Bubbles, Pratima, Neena, Cooky, Punita, Mamta, Monica, Grace, Shariffa, and Bhanu from LHSG UK, who was in Nairobi at that time.
We have been requested to come again, as the residents of the Home love our Reiki Healing Touch. This holds true for the sisters, the workers, and aspirants too.
So Lotus Healing Seva Group will be doing seva every month at this place from now on.
From the accounts of Mamta, Punita and Monica below, it is clear, indeed, that Reiki is much appreciated and very welcome at this Home!
Please also watch the photos that follow, which say it all!

At the Nyumba ya waze gratitude was just pouring out from the old people in the form of blessings to each and every one of us. They were so ready to receive Reiki from us that they all were ready before we reached there. Ready praying first. Then ready to receive Reiki. The Sister’s organization was so perfect. Everything was looked into before our arrival. While we were there everything worked like clockwork. It was a day when I just felt so touched every time I could bring a smile on those innocent faces.

Interaction with the Aged
The visit to the home turns me emotional each time as I feel I reconnect with my ancestors by meeting the elderly. This visit in May was good as they all awaited us eagerly. In a few months they have understood and appreciated the way Reiki is helping them. The initial resistance shown by some of the elderly a few months ago has faded away and they all enjoyed the session.
Despite the language barrier, they tried explaining their demand for healing at certain parts of their bodies as they now knew that the Reiki has been helping them heal. One gentleman that I was attending to, turned sideways to enable me give reiki to his back that has hurting him even before I could request him to do so. He then sat through patiently while I gave reiki and did the spine balancing and refused to go out to meet his visitors until I had finished giving him the healing. This positive response and acceptance speaks volumes of the difference Reiki and our human interaction has made to them. I am very grateful for such seva opportunities.
Love and Light

The Old Home Sewa today moved us deeply! I felt that Reiki is such a beautiful way to reach out -as the true “human touch ” !
Every heart cries out to be loved and the old people were perfect examples of this!
The elderly were receiving the healing very sweetly .They would take my hands and place them on different parts of their body to show where the pain is.
They appeared like little babies soaking in the love and light showered on them!

We all need love
The aged more so
We clasp their hand
They clasp back
Who is the giver
Eyes follow us
As we enter
Who will be first
Then they see
We are many
Many will be
First in our heart
Excellent seva for the aged.
I remember going there what a great seva you all are blessed with.
Bless the hands that receive and the hands that give.
This is so beautiful. I am thankful for the people who provide such a wonderful home for the residents, too.
