In 1992 in Hong Kong for the first time and just recently in Weimar. 6004 people from all of life’s situations, religions, professions and social backgrounds have acquired Reiki. Our 6000th client is Anke Thieme. She embodies our activity over the last 23 years in a wonderful way. Read her story here: 

I am 45 years old and have been living in Weimar for 20 years. I have 5 chrildren, 2 daughters and 3 sons.

At the time of the GDR I followed the wish of my partents and learnt the profession of a mechanic. After the “turn” to FRG I did a commercial apprenticeship for health reasons. Since 1996 I work in the library of the High School for Music in Weimar.

In February 2010 my 4^th child was born with Down-Syndrom and since then I at home as a mother and housewife. In February 2013 my 5^th child was born and I decided to extend my time-out from professional life.

For a long time I have been on the search for „something“ for myself as well as for my family.

In early childhood I very much suffered from neurodermatitis and from hay fever which still today influences my well-being unpleasantly. Our upbringing was tough for my sister and me. This influenced my life mostly in a negative way. I kept thinking: I am not worth of anything. I am a failure. Nobody listens to me.

A great uncertainty has ruled in all of life’s situations and kept causing health problems.

By a coincident a found my way to Reiki. Mischa was staying in one of my husbands apartments here in Weimar and gave a public talk about Reiki in the evening. That is where my husband “sent me to” and after this evening I instantly knew that I will take the Reiki 1 seminar.
It was a wonderful seminar for me. Mischa took me an adventurous journey to many places on this planet. Which made me aware of how well I am in this life of mine and it made me even more aware of the pain of others.  

After the Seminar I now can give myself strength at any given moment, strength which I so urgently need, I can treat my children and others who need it.

More and more I come to feel: Anke you are worthy of something, you can achieve things and you are being heard.
