We are excited to be offering our popular 8-day Japan tour, “A  Journey to Where it All Began,” for the second time this year.  The group will be accompanied by Reiki Master and guide Christopher Tellez along with translator and guide Keiko Mukai. Our trip begins in Kyoto where we will connect to the spirit of Japan and learn the deep history of spiritual practice. We will immerse ourselves in the Japanese culture through frequent temple visits and by climbing Mount Kurama, the birthplace of Reiki. At Mount Kurama we will explore various temples and sacred spots visited by Usui Sensei as he ascended the mountain for his fateful 21-day fast and meditation which led him to Reiki. Upon descending Mount Kurama we will explore Kibune (a UNESCO World Heritage site) and one of the most scenic riverside towns in Japan. Lastly, our guides will lead us to the famous Arashiyama Bamboo Forest and the tori gates of the Fushi Inari Shrine to experience Japanese culture, both ancient and modern.
