Reiki Articles Reiki Stories Reiki Life
Hi Everyone! A lot of you have been asking me to tell you a whole lot more about Reiki and how it's helping people in the community. Some have been asking for general advice, others for me to share some of my stories, and some have just been curious to find out more about what Reiki really is and what it can do for them.
Yadira Talks... is my talk page and a space for me to add Reiki articles, Reiki stories, and tell you all about fun, exciting, informative, or even just plain unusual events that happen in my day–to–day life as a Reiki Master striving to achieve her goal of bringing a little bit of Reiki to all those who want it — in short, to talk about Reiki life as I experience it.
Those of you that have spent a bit of time looking around my web site will already know that the idea of sharing is a big thing for me. So, if you have ideas for new articles, or if you have an interesting story of your own to tell, then please Contact Me as usual — if your story is good, I may even publish it here to share with all those who visit!

This is where I will be sharing my Reiki articles and stories with you. I will be writing more over the coming weeks and months, and so will a writer that I grabbed from somewhere :O), so it really won't be long before there's all kinds of interesting stuff going on here.
So sit back, relax, get a cup of cocoa or hot chocolate or whatever you are fond of... and enjoy!
