Welcome to the 2008 Reiki Alphabet Challenge!!! Its great to have you here!!! This challenge is designed to give you something new to Reiki every day by giving you a new letter to focus on each day. Hopefully, by the end of the challenge you will have Reikied things you hadn’t considered before and thereby increased the boundaries of your Reiki world. So let’s get started…
Today’s letter is “K” and our focus is on our Kids… those of us that have them, those who don’t can easily borrow their neighbor’s, believe me, they won’t mind. 
Kids are much more open to learning and receiving Reiki as most of the filters that might otherwise block an effective Reiki treatment are just not there. There are, however, other blocks that children tend to be more vulnerable to, mostly of an emotional nature, and some attention to these can greatly accelerate the healing. For example, when kids fall down and cry, it is quite often more the shock of the situation (and sometimes the embarrassment of having done so in front of their friends) that leads to the wailing which demonstrates the extent and depth of the perceived boo-boo <technical term> and thus validating the situation. The quick and easy healing of that emotional pain can lead to some of the most instantaneous healings imaginable.
Its also been my experience that kids also tend to be more inclined to ask for Reiki in the first place. many adults seem to have some aversion to asking for help of any kind in the first place, even in the direst of circumstances, whereas kids have less of a problem with asking for what they want or need. My children ask far more often than my wife or friends. They grab a quick dose and run off… all fixed. 
So, your challenge for today is find a few kids to give Reiki to. Rent ’em if you have to or if there are really none around, send some distance Reiki to any of the 30+ Million starving children in the world. You may not get a thank you… but if you do it will resonate within you for a long, long time.
During the Reiki Alphabet Challenge, please do not feel you must limit yourself to the suggested letter of the day. Use the comment option below to send your own suggested ideas beginning with the letter of the day so that we might all get some new ideas, motivations and understandings of this wonderful world of Reiki. And as always, extra points will be given for originality and awesomeness!! 
For further explanation or discussion, your thoughts are most welcome and highly encouraged, please feel free to comment below!!!
