Meeting Keith Hunt MBE at the Royal Alexandra Children’s Hospital
Deborah Mairesse, Alison Walters and I, the Reiki therapists at the Royal Alexandra Children’s Hospital in Brighton, had the wonderful opportunity to meet Keith Hunt, MBE, who has been organising and championing complementary therapy at the Royal Free Hospital for 50 years now!

The question is, how do we get rid of our peas? Shutting down our hearts It can be easy to set conditions for our happiness, and decide that if these are not met we need to shut down our hearts with regards to a particular person or situation. Unfortunately the suffering caused by this action is mostly...
