Though the school fence was brought down, we firmly believe the Reiki healing that we normally invoke worked miracles. Our school was well protected by this strong weapon.<\/p>\n<p>Our children, who have passionately transformed quickly into Reiki Healers, the following day, drew our attention to send healing to all the affected families. We promptly arranged for it in our morning assembly and it was satisfactorily done.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;re thankful because one of our parents who was affected is beginning her life afresh from scratch and Reiki has already come in handy for her and her two young daughters who are our children. One a Reiki warrior herself.<\/p>\n<p>We tremendously appreciate the transformative role Reiki is playing in our school community.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Do watch the video below<\/p>\n<p>xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx<\/p>\n<p><strong>Seva No. 88: Blessing the waters in Norway. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>LHSG Kenya Member Bindi Shah:<\/strong>&nbsp; 28th June, Hardanger National Park in Bergen, Norway. Wherever you see, there was water everywhere, in all directions. It\u2019s like God has given them everything in abundance and they actually value it, treasure it, and make sure it remains pure, available and clean. In contrast, I felt saddened as I remembered the imbalance of water in the world, so giving Reiki to the water in front of me came naturally&nbsp; and to many other waterfalls that came my way. My Reiki blessing was for: May these waters flow equally all over the world, and spread joy and abundance. May it continue to bless this country and all the other countries. I also chanted the Rivers mantra over and over.<\/p>\n<p>Do watch video below.<\/p>\n<p>xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx<\/p>\n<p><strong>Seva no. 89: Reiki blessings for children and babies in a rescue centre in Kenya<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>On 3<sup>rd<\/sup> July, <strong>LHSG Kenya members Jaya, Shalini, Abhilasha, Pallavi and Kamal<\/strong> did a Reiki seva at a Childrens Rescue Centre.<\/p>\n<p>The children here, 45 in number, aged from a few months old to 9 years, have been rescued from abusive households \/ found abandoned \/ whose Mums are in prison, and sadly, there was even one, a surrogate baby, rescued from&nbsp; a couple that were trying to smuggle her across our border into a neighboring country.. . .<\/p>\n<p>To begin with, the children were very noisy and were not settling down, so we blessed them with Reiki, and also tried to engage them with some nursery songs.&nbsp;We continued blessing them with Reiki, as they were having the milk and mandazis. The trauma was palpable. And they so lacked the love of a human touch. Many of them wanted to be picked up and cuddled. As I spoke to them in Kiswahili, they kept telling me in Kiswahili, with their arms outstretched and uplifted. .&nbsp;&nbsp; Bebe bebe . .&nbsp; which means \u2026. carry me, carry me . . <strong>Abhilasha<\/strong> was very good, she carried even the hefty ones!<\/p>\n<p>We were taken to their sleeping rooms, where there were other babies, which we also gave Reiki to. The babies we carried didn\u2019t want to be put back in the cots . . . . We felt sad, but at the same time grateful that we cud add a few moments of joy in their little lives. . .<\/p>\n<p>xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx<\/p>\n<p><strong>LHSG Kenya member Abhilasha Tak<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Once Shalini made all the children sit down then they were very receptive while receiving Reiki.&nbsp; Some of them just wanted to be held, so it was very difficult to put them down. I realised that we are so busy in our lifestyles that we forget that a simple hug or&nbsp; talking to these children can also make them so happy. When I picked up 1 child then the other, other one also wanted the same. It is so heart wrenching to see that the children just wanted to be held. It became very upsetting when I had to put the baby back in the cot and she started crying.<\/p>\n<p>But I am very happy that I could do something for them. Then we gave Reiki from far.<\/p>\n<p>We also gave Reiki to 4 of the staff. Overall it was a very heart touching seva and I am grateful for the opportunity.<\/p>\n<p>Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx<\/p>\n<p><strong>LHSG Kenya member: Jaya Nainani<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We donated mandazi, banana, milk, sugar, cooking oil, rice, colgate toothpaste, tea leaves, whole wheat flour, Nan 2 baby milk tins and biscuits<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx<\/p>\n<p><strong>LHSG Kenya Member:&nbsp; Shalini Srivastava:&nbsp;<\/strong> It was a beautiful seva day, but this seva made me realise that we take everything for granted: a good family life, the love and warmth we share, these little kids have missed all this .They were longing for our attention and love .They didn\u2019t want to leave our hands wanted our love. I\u2019m so happy and grateful that we could share our love and light with them.
