The John Harvey Gray Center for Reiki Healing was established by John Harvey Gray and Lourdes Gray in 1996. The Center was created in order to empower and develop the Reiki student’s capacity to learn Reiki using the most complete Reiki training available with no cut corners’ taken in teaching the Reiki healing system as it was taught by Mrs. Hawayo Takata. 

Over time, The John Harvey Gray Center for Reiki Healing has become recognized and acknowledged as a leader in the field of Reiki training and energy healing. In addition to its commitment to excellence in Reiki training, it also serves as a platform from which John Harvey Gray and Lourdes Gray have developed and launched several important works, including their best selling Reiki book Hand To Hand, the audio recording “Takata Speaks: Volume I and Volume II,” and the “Emotionality and the Chakras” CD containing John Harvey Gray’s ground-braking theory on the chakras and his “Chakra Balancing Meditation.”

The mission of the John Harvey Gray Center for Reiki Healing is to preserve the Reiki teachings of Mikao Usui, Chujiro Hayashi and Hawayo Takata, and at the same time, to further expand on those teachings; to offer a comprehensive system to learn Reiki based on John Harvey Gray’s vast storehouse of knowledge and experience in teaching and practicing Reiki and Lourdes Gray’s many years of deep, concentrated Reiki training with John Harvey Gray as well as her own extensive experience in teaching and practicing the Reiki system of natural healing. 

The knowledge and experience of both of these teachers has been distilled into a curriculum that provides students with a profound understanding of energy healing techniques and powerful Reiki training tools for self-development. Students learn Reiki with confidence. They learn to treat any condition, chronic or acute, in all living things. Easy to learn and effective meditation practices are presented in order to help accelerate the student’s own spiritual evolution and define his or her own sense of purpose.

In these evolutionary times, we believe that we are being called to Oneness. In heeding that call, we are One Reiki Family. We honor all Reiki lineages. Reiki is energy and energy is dynamic, ever-changing and transforming. We recognize that there is still much to be learned in the field of bioenergetics and the body’s capacity to heal. Reiki must remain dynamic and willing to grow, based on continuing research and experience.

At the same time, we hold the firm belief that the Reiki system as developed by Mikao Usui, and passed down to Chujiro Hayashi, Hawayo Takata, and John Harvey Gray must be preserved. We must use their teachings as the building blocks upon which we can continue to grow as One Reiki Family, to bring much-needed healing to the people, the animals and the Earth.
