Umbrella Childrens Home is a home for orphans and abandoned children. It is situated about 30 m from Nairobi. It was our good fortune to be able to help uplift the residents there by empowering them with Reiki.
Accordingly, LHSG Kenya members Bhavna Baga, Sonal Patel and I held a Reiki level 1 Workshop for 30 children and 4 adults, which included Recahb Boaz, the founder of the home. We usually hold these trainings for children 10 years and over, but there were a couple of little 8 and 9 year olds, who simply wanted to learn this ‘new’ method, so they too joined in!
As always, the training was conducted over 2 mornings: 18th and 22nd November. The usual introduction to the Reiki energy, the chakra system, followed by the attunement and then self-healing. The partner healing: made us smile. So absorbed were they in giving and receiving Reiki, that both healer and healee, eyes closed, were like a unit, relaxing into each other! The power of Reiki to heal could not be denied!
After the training, they have all been doing self-healing every day after supper, AND, they have also been giving Reiki to the younger children every day! The result is nothing short of miraculous: The rashes due to ringworm (of many months) have all gone! And no more night crying from the babies and young children, and all of the residents are happier, sleeping better, and stress free!
We give thanks to God and the Universe for giving us this yet another opportunity to reach out to the poor, the marginalized and the abandoned, and to empower them with Reiki. Many thanks go to Recahb Boaz for opening his doors for us to allow us to do the training.
Love and Light to All!

Kids were in such good manners and listened and followed each and every instruction about how to keep hands on chakras and move one to another. They r so interested and eager to know everything. Got also amazing feedback from kids about Reiki experience.
We donated biscuits and milk on the first day and bananas and mangoes on the second day.
The Reiki Principles and all instructions and everything followed by children so well. And while doing partners healing also many doesn’t want to move their hands ..they said still reiki going! Amazing isn’t it!!!!
Amazing part was that on the second day, they had fasted, they were going to eat in the evening after doing prayers! Wonderful isn’t it!!
I feel blessed to have been able to do this camp.
