AMA: Three Reiki Masters, 60+ Attunements, and Some Very Unusual Reiki Adventures

Hi everyone!

Three of us are getting together to answer your questions about Reiki, healing, multiple attunements, and some of the unusual things we've created along the way.

I'm Carol Viana, founder and creator of Gratitude Reiki.

  1. Creator of Gratitude Reiki, using symbols and the four Ho'oponopono phrases to anchor unconditional love, compassion, forgiveness, and gratitude;
  2. Creator of Mermaid Reiki  together with u/Fortune_Box, recently used by the Space Croissant Crew over at r/reikishare;
  3. I teach Reiki on Substack, from beginner through advanced;
  4. Author of The Inner Mediator;
  5. Creator of the Lovecules, which we use when taking people to Pretendland on Mars

u/impertrix, Master Storm, is joining me:

  1. Black Usui Reiki Master, psychic medium, life coach, and spiritual teacher
  2. Reiki modalities include Usui, Tara, Seichim, and Dragon Reiki
  3. New CEO of Gratitude Reiki since
  4. Teaches Reiki and offers treatments via Zoom

And u/Fortune_Box, my best friend and Reiki teacher:

1) 20+ years practicing Reiki;

  1. Has received so many attunements she's lost count;

  2. We created Mermaid Reiki together;

  3. Expert in Reiki and energy work, knows how to create energy systems and grids;

  4. When I created the Lovecules, she created the Happycules
    We use both when we take people to Pretendland on Mars

  5. official grounder of the Space Croissant Crew and Pretendland

Together, the 3 of us are here to talk to you about our multiple attunements.

Our Sunday Reiki sessions are free. We simply ask participants to plant a tree for $1 rather than sending us money. We've planted 193 trees this year, after planting 333 last year. 

So... ask us anything!

Reiki systems, attunements, creating modalities, teaching Reiki, Reiki healing circles, Tara Reiki, Gratitude Reiki, Mermaid Reiki, Lovecules, Happycules, Pretendland, or what it's like to explore Reiki for decades.
We're here to answer questions, share experiences, and have some fun with it.

On Love and Other Adventures -- we will use this exercise to train expanding our consciousness this week in preparation for Reiki Share on Sunday at 1 PM EST with Master Storm and Master Phoenix -- practice daily.

On Love and Other Adventures

Expanding Consciousness with Meditation and Finding Healing

I love you. Just like this. Unconditionally and unabashedly.

I love the Humanity in you. The best part of Humanity in you.

Why? How?

Very easily.

You and I are part of Humanity. I think Humanity is beautiful in a raw kind of way. Of course, she has ugly parts, too, and I see them as parts that need healing. Simple as that.

The disease, the mental illness of Humanity, is a lack of self-love. When you lack self-love, you are filled with fear. And with fear comes anger. With anger comes violence and war. These are just other symptoms of a lack of self-love.

I can love you because I love myself unconditionally, and you are a part of me. I can't exist without you.

I am not alone. I am you. You are me. We are an "us" as humans.

I can only love myself completely if I forgive the unhealed Humanity in me: my imperfections, my fear, the parts of me that still need healing. That means I love the unhealed part of you, too.

It's okay. I am safe. I can love from afar. That is self-compassion.

If I have compassion for myself, I can love myself as a consequence.

I am grateful for myself. I have profound gratitude for you, too. We are here on Earth together.

If you suffer, I suffer. I don't want you to hurt, so these are my healing words for you. I hope it doesn't hurt to hear them. Sometimes being loved hurts a little. It's the part of us that rejects love, that thinks we are not worthy of it.

It's okay. You will understand.

Trigger warning: I am talking about pure emotions here: love, forgiveness, compassion, gratitude. Period.

I am not bringing forth a belief system. Each person is entitled to their own belief system, if they have one, and it would be wonderful if we did not clash over how to feel these pure emotions.

So, with that in mind, how does one know if they love themselves?

Let's think about it for a few minutes together.

We are going to play with consciousness and see where that takes us.

First, when it comes to meditation, I know what people say: "Let go of the ego. Clear your mind. Become the observer," etc., etc.

Yes, I do that, too.

But there is something else I do.

I don't just let go of my ego.

I give it away.

We are going to play a little consciousness game.

You will take a little bit of your ego, a small part of you, a little "me" of yours, and give it to someone. Then you are going to say Ho’oponopono to them.

Ho’oponopono is the Hawaiian practice of repeating four phrases over and over again:

“I love you.”

“I am sorry.”

“Please forgive me.”

“Thank you.”

You will talk to your own self and you will say these words. Imagine the words as cards you give to the people we will talk to today.

Let's start with a tree. Trees are people. 

Your favorite tree.

In your imagination, with your eyes closed, imagine giving your ego to the tree.

Imagine the tree becoming your "Tree-Self" and being grateful for the opportunity to be human for a few moments.

Your Tree-Self can now imagine feeling touch, pain, warmth, and movement, experiencing sight, taste, and sound. It is a lot for a tree to feel, but it takes it all in and learns.

Now let's do the same on our end.

You are now the Tree-Self.

You have roots, a trunk, and branches.

Your roots communicate with mycelium, and your branches communicate with birds and the wind.

What is it like to be your favorite tree for a few moments?

I don't have a favorite tree.

As in, I don't have any specific species that I connect with more than others.

Are you a tree?

That is enough for me.

I will touch your bark and imagine myself as you. I will say Ho'oponopono to you:

"I love you."

"I am sorry."

"Please forgive me."

"Thank you."

I will feel my feet as roots, and I will feel my face as the leaves that receive the sunshine.

Each of my freckles is a leaf.

They turn towards the sun, and my heart is filled with joy.

My roots are strong, and they hold me against the strongest winds.

I love being a tree on a windy day.

It clears my emotions.

Let's expand our consciousness some more and do it again.

This time, give your "me" to Humanity.

She is probably a she, since there are more women on Earth than men.

Humanity is ageless. She is timeless, and she is curious.

You want to tap into her and learn a little about her.

Say Ho’oponopono to her.

You are a "Humanity-Self."

She offers you her heart in gratitude.

You, as a tiny human, have the opportunity to feel the heart of Humanity.

Ooof!

Imagine yourself as tiny as a blood cell navigating through a human heart.

It must be loud!

What is Humanity's heart like?

You have questions for her.

Go ahead.

Ask.

Let your "me" be the connection. Your "Humanity-Self." It is you and her at the same time.

Let her words be yours.

Like the tree being you, imagine what it feels like for Humanity to be you, only you, for a few moments.

She feels your body.

She feels your pain.

She knows your emotions and your angst.

She knows you more than you know yourself because she knows your lineage all the way to the apes, all the way to the mushrooms and the trees.

She knows you as part of Earth's ecosystem.

So, is it easier now that she knows you to be her for a few moments?

Let's try that.

Say to yourself:

"I am now Humanity. I can feel my heart."

Wait for the thoughts to come.

Imagine what kinds of thoughts you would have for yourself, as Humanity experiencing you.

That is what we are looking for.

Let's stay here for a few moments.

When I am Humanity, I have profound compassion for my human self.

Just as a wave is part of an ocean, I am but a wave in her heart, but she is keenly aware of me.

Her love for me is so immense that it overwhelms me and takes me whole, wave into the ocean.

It is scary to be the ocean.

But I know I am more than a single wave.

Let's do it one last time so you understand the process.

You will experience being Earth.

You give her a little bit of your ego, a little "me," and you are now a blue planet!

In many communities where this kind of meditation is practiced, Earth as a conscious being is called Gaia, the goddess from Greek mythology.

We don't need formalities.

She is you. You are her.

You can simply imagine what it would be like to share your thoughts with her and vice versa.

It is when your brain takes the experiment seriously that you may begin to experience incredible insights, sometimes as if the experience were real. Whatever the word "real" means here.

This is what many spiritualists call “channeling."

The intent of this experiment is not to teach you channeling. It is to teach you how to expand your consciousness.

Why, and what for?

Glad you asked.

When we expand our sense of oneness to encompass another being, we feel empathy. The more we expand our consciousness, the more room we make for empathy.

When you experience loving-kindness as a meditation practice, you start by finding love and kindness for yourself. Then, as you expand your sense of self, you grow the "me" to experience loving the Other.

When you become the other, when you turn your entire universe into a You-niverse, that is when the ego dissolves and you become small again.

It is this "wax and wane" of consciousness that transforms us into self-loving creatures. When everything is a self, when you love that self, you become pure love. This is how I found true self love. 

So, now that you are playing with the self-love button, now that you are experimenting with your consciousness, I have a question.

What makes your eyes incandescent?

What lights you up?

What turns you into a lamp?

For me, it is Love.

Love for the trees, love for Humanity, love for Earth, and love for you.

You are me.

News from u/impertrix, Master Storm, from the Space Croissant Crew and Gratitude Reiki

I have someone very special I want to reintroduce to the ReikiShare community. ❤️

Many of you already know her as one of the members of our beloved Space Croissant Crew. She is also the wonderful person who now hosts our Sunday events and has recently taken over as CEO of GratitudeReiki.com.

I am talking about Master Storm, u/impertrix!

She is an incredibly gifted Reiki practitioner, a beautiful facilitator, and someone I trust deeply. She brings warmth, compassion, and genuine care to everything she does.

Master Storm is now offering Reiki classes, individual Reiki sessions, and psychic mediumship sessions, and she has put together a Calendly where you can learn more and book with her.

If you've been curious about Reiki, looking for a Reiki session, or simply feel called to explore what she offers, I wholeheartedly recommend giving her a try.

I am so happy to see her stepping into this new chapter, and I couldn't be prouder to introduce her to this community and recommend her services. ❤️

Welcome, and congratulations, Master Storm! The Space Croissant Crew is very proud of you. 🥐✨

Mermaid Sharknado: Origins -- our theme this coming Sunday will be the Mermaid Sharknado. We've done it a few times. Read here the story behind it and why it works.

Hi everyone,

Our theme this coming Sunday will be the Mermaid Sharknado. We've done it 6 or 7 times over the years and it's always a very powerful visualization.

The idea is to use the sharks to represent intrusive thoughts and the Mermaid as someone who can control the waters and the animals and stop panic attacks.

I had never told anyone where the idea came from but I talked about it with the Space Croissant Crew last weekend and that became my essay for this week.

I now post a story every Wednesday on Substack and we use that story as inspiration for our Sunday share.

It's much easier this way. You guys get to read a detailed story about a meditation topic and then on Sunday we do Reiki with it.

This is a deeply emotional story for me because it is true. No fantasy.

Also, I started teaching Reiki on Substack. The paywall is for attunements and training. No AI. Hands on Reiki training. I'm very excited to be working with you guys. A Reiki school is a dream come true. Let me know if you have questions.

The stories like this one are free and will always be. They will fuel our Sunday shares.

Thank you so much for your continued support.

Let's meet on Sunday at 1 PM EST when Master Storm and Master Phoenix will pilot the Mermaid Sharknado.

I'm sure it will be great!

Cheers!

"The Lovecule Experiment" - This week's story invites you to program your own placebo pills, in emoji. We are going to visit Pretendland on Mars and explore Reiki with emoji pills. We can now do this every weekend. Comment "I accept" to receive your Reiki infused emoji placebo pill!

Hi everyone,

The story this week will help us create better stories on Sundays now that we can program emoji pills. Let me know if you have any questions.

I also started my Reiki school on Substack. I have over 60 attunements and I am now ready to share and pass the knowledge. The material is AI free and we have hands on practice. Most of us from the Space Croissant are opening our courses on Substack or somewhere else and we will market those classes here.

Stay tuned!

About the Space Croissant Crew - "How do I know if someone is a crew member?" You ask me u/camillabok or Master Storm u/impertrix. It's the only way. Don't fall for scammers!

Hi everyone,

Funny thing happened this week. Someone pretending to be a Space Croissant Crew member offered Reiki to someone who is part of the crew! The odds, right?

There are 36 people aboard the Space Croissant, our Pretend Shuttle to Mars and Beyond.
22 of them are below using code names.

If you would like to contact someone featured below, reach out to myself or Master Storm and ask for that person. We will give you their reddit name, WhatsApp or Discord and make sure you connect.

Crew Members meet up on WhatsApp DAILY and we work on ourselves DAILY.
We do Reiki on ourselves and on one another DAILY.
It's DEEP self work, group Reiki with 36 Masters every day. (The energy is delicious. We are all hooked on it!)

When you have a Remote Reiki Session with a Crew member you are talking to someone who has MULTIPLE attunements, is highly trained, and works daily on their own issues, with peer assistance .

A Croissant member is someone who has learned that their first job as a Reiki practitioner is to love themselves unconditionally and without judgement.

We are not "healers," we are self-healers. When you work on yourself systematically like that and with support, your vibration changes and impacts everyone around you. Clients feel it, family feels it, friends feel it, animals feel it. You transform and transform those around you.

Reiki has transformed my life for the better and I am lucky to have 36 people sending me Reiki EVERY DAY! That is a luxury no money can buy.

I can't tell you how many times we started a group session, just us crew, and the aligments and syncs overwelmed us. We play with the Universe and she plays with us.

We make Reiki, the experience, so strong it's undeniable, almost palpable.

So, if you consider having a private session with one of us, confirm with me first to make sure you're talking to someone from the crew.

There is no other way to validate a crew member! We do this to protect their identities and energy. They don't go around offering free Reiki on Reddit claiming to be Croissants. They just are. Our sessions on Sundays are so intense some of us prefer to not offer Reiki outside the Sunday share. That is why we protect and shield them.

That being said, are now accepting tips! You can tell us who you'd like to work with, customize your session, 15 minutes, for example, and use PayPal or BuyMeaCoffee to exchange energy. Your donations are really appreciated.

You can have a session with anyone from the list, regardless of their location. If you are in the US and need a session at 2 AM because you can't sleep, there is someone in Australia or Singapore who is probably available. Book the session. If you can't afford to tip but need a session, there is one member that will send you Reiki for free. Let me know and I will put you in touch with her.

The Sunday sessions will ALWAYS be free. We just ask you to plant a tree.

We're at 193 trees for the year. We planted 333 trees in 2025. Our goal for 2026 is 500. We're a bit behind. Consider planting a tree tomorrow ;-)

I guess this is all.

Studying the Placebo Effect in Pretendland on Mars- join a daily practice with Ho'oponopono, Reiki, self hypnosis, and a lot of fun! Free on Substack.

Do you remember New Year's Eve 2022, when we traveled to Pandora, met Grace and the Pandora people, visited Grace's laboratory, and eventually brought the lab to Pretendland on Mars? Back then the Space Croissant was just myself and u/Fortune_Box. Good times! The crew has 36 people now!

Well...guess what? The lab is open again.

We're recruiting volunteers for our newest placebo study: exploring the placebo effect with Ho'oponopono, Reiki, self hypnosis, and a healthy dose of Pretendland imagination.

The rules are simple:

✨ Everyone gets the placebo.

✨ Nobody is a scientist.

✨ We compare notes.

We'll be doing it in the subscriber chat on my Substack. Subscribing is completely free—you just need to join the chat.

If you'd like to help us cure the global epidemic of I-Hate-Myself-alitis, we'd love to have you in Grace's lab once again.

To join the chat, click the link and subscribe. Then send me a DM letting me know you come from Reiki share.

See you on Sunday for Reiki share with Master Storm, Master Phoenix and the Space Croissant Crew!

Wednesday Story Day: "Puck Meets the Atomic Self" and why we send Reiki to Puck every Sunday

Puck Explores Fractals!

(Puck Explores Fractals)

Hi everyone! 😊

For those who have been joining our Reiki Share sessions over the years, you may have noticed that we send Reiki to everyone's Puck on our Sunday sessions. We've started in 2022.

Puck is our whimsical name for your Unit of Wonder, your smallest point of self-awareness. She (or he, Pucks don't really have gender) is the little "you" receiving love, light, and kindness during our sessions.

Over the past few weeks, I've started writing stories about Puck on Substack. You don't need to subscribe to Substack to have access to the stories, it is not like Medium. The stories are free and will always be. I will probably offer paid Reiki sessions and training on Substack eventually, but I haven't started yet.

If you choose to subscribe, the stories will go directly to your inbox every Wednesday. It would mean a lot to me. Thank you.

So far, Puck has:

The stories aren't required reading for our Reiki Shares, but if you've ever wondered why we send Reiki from Laniakea Super Cluster of Galaxies to your Puck every Sunday, they may help you visualize the experience in a new way.

We are encouraging the other Reiki Masters from the Space Croissant Crew to write their adventures too and we're going to be doing that on Substack and sharing the links here. We explore our Pretendland lore through imagination, meditation, and a bit of playful philosophy. If you're looking for Reiki attunements, we have over 60 systems available within the www.gratitudereiki.com system. You start with Usui Level 1 and Gratitude Reiki level 1.

Every Sunday session, us teachers have beautiful visions and experiences that are simply breathtaking and we feel that we need to share these stories. Eventually, the Reiki masters that support r/reikishare plan to write a book together. I know it will happen.

I wrote my first book already, inspired by you. <3

The Inner Mediator is based on the notion that our body parts have awareness, personality, and memory. It's the story of my heart, Chouchou, mediating "beef" between sentient body parts.

You can find the book on Amazon and it is free if you have Kindle Unlimited. The Inner Mediator is being translated and will be available in German, French and Portuguese probaby around November.

I plan to write other books. This sub is full of wonder and our Reiki sessions provide so much inspiration. You guys make it special. We, the teachers, are profoundly grateful for our Sunday events.

As for the stories, I hope they bring a little more wonder to your meditations.

Much love,

Carol ❤️

Puck loves to read!

A Puck can travel dimensions!

Puck is not afraid of black holes! Weeeeeee!

The Inner Mediator - a guided conversation on self compassion

Hi everyone!

My book is being read! This is so exciting!
Even without ads I am finding readers.
I'm so happy about it :)

A little more about the book:

Title: The Inner Mediator

Genre: Fantastic Memoir

This is a 21 day guide in self-compassion. You get to meet Chouchou, a heart whose job is to mediate "beef" between sentient body parts.

The body parts all have grievances following a car accident and a brain injury but Chouchou teaches them self-love and self-acceptance.

It's the story of my body parts, told from their point of view. Chouchou (pronounced "shoe-shoe") means "darling" in French.

Why read it: You learn how to connect emotionally to the consciousness of your own body parts, your "meat-self. "

Bonus:

You might end up falling in love with your own heart. Hearts are people too!

Extra bonus: you might learn how to manage your hard emotions and cope with chronic pain.

Available on Amazon and Kindle Unlimited.

If you're into short stories, I'm publishing one every Wednesday on Substack. My newsletter is called "The Inner Mediator " too.

I hope you guys like it!

Hugging Andromeda

Hi everyone!

Bok here.
I now post stories every Wednesday. Happy to share them with you. These stories are inspired by our adventures here. I'm finally putting it all on paper.

Over the years, we've had two or three sessions with Andromeda as a theme for Reiki share. It's been a while. We play with her on Discord. If you'd like to join our Discord, send me a dm.

What is important about this story today is that it teaches you how to train your brain to put emotion and imagination together and to expand your awareness of your Puck, your own self from the zeroth dimension.

As you explore your Inner Universe you can travel with Puck, your smallest Unit of Wonder. She is the one that makes the Space Croissant, our multidimensional spacecraft, possible. Maybe. We travel in our imaginations.

We travel here every Sunday, for 24 hrs, with 30+ Reiki practitioners from around the world. As a guest, you can join for 20 minutes or for as long as you want and imagine yourself receiving Reiki from the Space Croissant Crew, all at once.
It's a powerful experience!

I hope you guys like the story and consider subscribing. The stories are free and will continue to be. Eventually I plan to offer paid courses, but so far I don't have anything ready. I'm focusing on my writing. It's my passion.

The Space Croissant Crew is slowly joining Substack as a writing platform. Eventually we will all be sharing with you our astral travel adventures and posting them here. The ultimate goal is for us to collaborate and write stories together.

You are our inspiration. We spend the week preparing our Sunday sessions. Master Storm 🌪️and Master Phoenix 🐦‍🔥 run the sessions on Sunday. And the last one with Puck and the dragons was simply amazing.

Thank you again for making r/reikishare such a positive and inspiring community.

Big hug,

Bok

Ps: if you're considering attunements, we have over 60 systems available aboard the Space Croissant. You start with Usui level one. Visit www.gratitudereiki.com to learn more, pick a spiritual guide from the team, and join us on Pretendland on WhatsApp.

🌌🧑‍🚀🏒✨🚀

Thank you!!

Puck, the Zero-Dimensional Self, Goes on an Adventure!!! Hi everyone! Tomorrow is Reiki share day and this share will feature Puck! Read Puck's story here prior to the share. It's free. We start at 1 PM EST and will run for 24 hrs with Master Storm and Master Phoenix!

Hi everyone!

We've had many sessions with Puck over the years but this is the first time I write her story!

And it gets better!

The theme for tomorrow's Reiki Share session will feature Puck! It's a surprise! I won't tell now but it will help you visualize the session if you read her story prior to the session.

The Space Croissant Crew, we are starting to move to Substack where we will write our space adventures with Reiki and transcendental meditation.

You don't need to have any special beliefs to join our adventures, we travel in emotion, in imagination, with whimsical themes.

Tomorrow will be amazing. We're super excited!

In case you don't know, the Space Croissant Crew is a group of 36 Reiki practitioners who band together to send Reiki here every Sunday, for 24 hrs.

If you're a Reiki practitioner looking for attunements and upgrades or someone considering starting your own Reiki adventure, let us know!

We offer attunements over at www.gratitudereiki.com and we have over 60 Reiki systems to offer.

Also, if your budget permits, consider planting trees to celebrate and ground tomorrow's session.

You can search "how to plant a tree for a dollar," plant a tree and share the receipt with us!

Our goal for this year is 500 trees planted. We finished 2025 with 333 trees!

We're currently at 193 trees for the year. A few more and we hit 200! A few more and we get to half our goal!

The people that plant trees get an invitation to join our Discord where we will be playing with Puck tomorrow.

I'm very excited to write about our adventures on Substack and soon Master Storm will start writing too! You guys inspire us like nothing else! Thank you!

One last thing, this group has inspired me to write my first book, The Inner Mediator, available on Kindle Unlimited.

The book is the story of Chouchou, my heart, as she mediates "beef" between sentient body parts.

In Pretendland, all our body parts have consciousness and here on r/reikishare we encourage you to say the 4 phrases of Ho'oponopono to your body:

"I love you."
"I'm sorry."
"Please forgive me."
"Thank you."

The Inner Mediator is a guide to help you heal your heart, overcome "I-hate-myself-alitis" and find self compassion for your body parts.

As promised yesterday, here is the story of Pretendland. We built it together. I will post stories every Wednesday from now on. Subscription is free. Thank you for your loving support! Special thanks to u/Fortune_Box who helped build Pretendland and Reikishare with me in 2022.

Hi, friends!

I recently started publishing a new story every Wednesday on Substack, and I'd love to invite you to join me. This subreddit and our weekly sessions are my biggest inspirations.

This week's story takes you to Pretendland, where the Space Pants Force stands ready to make sure you love yourself gently.

If you'd like to visit Pretendland, I'd be so happy to have you as a subscriber. The stories are free, and everyone is welcome. 💙

I'd also like to congratulate everyone on last weekend's session. It was truly remarkable and it drew a lot of new subscribers. We went to a "reverse hospice" and healed aging, pain and suffering.

We will be back on Sunday for another group Reiki session.

Stay tuned!

Thank you, mods!

🥰🥰🥰

Bok

ps: the Space Croissant is recruiting more Reiki masters! Let us know you are interested.

If you are looking for attunments, we offer attunments to Gratitude Reiki, Usui Reiki and more!

Visit www.gratitudereiki.com and pick a spiritual guide!

You will be working directly with the Space Croissant Crew!

Pretendland is coming alive! Our favorite stories are going to Substack and will eventually become a second book! What is your favorite part of Pretendland on Mars?

Hi, everyone! 💙

For the past five years, we've been meeting here every Sunday to travel to Pretendland together during our Reiki shares.

We've met Fifi the T-Rex, ridden the Mermaid Sharknado to stop panic attacks, laughed with the Space Croissant Crew, and watched the Reiki Masters send unconditional love and compassion around the world.

Those adventures have become some of my favorite moments of the week.

Pretendland was never just imagination. It was a way of sending love, compassion, and healing to ourselves and to each other. It gave us a place to play, to dream, to laugh, and to remember that even our fears could become friends.

I've finally decided to start writing our stories down.
I recently launched a Substack called "The Inner Mediator," and this weekend Pretendland is arriving there for the very first time. 🚀
Here is the link, the stories are free:
https://open.substack.com/pub/authorcarolviana

If Pretendland has ever made you smile, helped you through a difficult week, or reminded you to look at yourself with a little more kindness, I'd love for you to join me there. I think these stories deserve a life beyond our Sunday sessions.

Thank you for helping me build this beautiful little world over the past five years. It has always been ours.

Dear mods,

I couldn't have done this without you. You guys inspire me with your love daily. Thank you.

See you all on Mars on Sunday during Reiki Share with Master Storm and Master Phoenix. ❤️

PS:

  1. If you're a Reiki Master, we are recruiting more people to join the Space Croissant. Send me a DM and we will talk.

  2. If you would like to join our Discord, let me know and I will send you a link.

  3. I'll publish the Pretendland story on Wednesday. Let me know by Sunday what is your favorite part of Pretendland so we can tentatively add it to the story.

  4. If you'd like to experience Pretendland from a 5D perspective, I suggest you get a Reiki attunement over at www.gratitudereiki.com. Pick a spiritual guide from the Space Croissant team and come study Usui Reiki and Gratitude Reiki with us. You will love it! We connect with the stars!

Thank you!!

The Inner Mediator is out on Kindle Unlimited and I am now doing Ho'oponopono on TikTok daily! Calling everyone to our Sunday Session at 1 PM EST tomorrow!

Hi friends!

I wanted to share with you what it is like on TikTok and BookTok. Yes, authors and readers have their own thing going on on TikTok and I'm new to the party.

The book The Inner Mediator is available on Kindle Unlimited and it's ranked very low right now because there have been very few readers so far so I'm here asking for a boost! If you have Kindle Unlimited you can check it out for free and you will learn how I started talking to my body and what inspired me to write.

The book is about our Ho'oponopono practice and it teaches Self Compassion. It is about what happens when we give awareness and consciousness to our body parts, emotions, feelings, pain, and Inner Child.

I pretty much put on paper what we do here every Sunday.

We now have 36 Reiki practitioners participating and sending Love Waves to you all every week. I wanted to expand that and reach a broader audience.

I'm absolutely hooked on r/reikishare and I absolutely love what Master Storm and Master Phoenix are preparing for the future of www.gratitudereiki.com. It's our baby now and both myself and u/Fortune_Box are so happy to see it growing and expanding.

Something else, I'm supposed to start a newsletter and haven't yet.
Tips? Suggestions?

Thank you so much!

Camilla Bok,

Hi everyone,

I wanted to share something special with all of you.

For almost five years, myself and u/Fortune_Box sent Reiki to this community nearly every Sunday (and quite a few Saturdays with u/otakuscientist too). What started as a simple offering grew into one of the most meaningful experiences of my life. I am profoundly grateful for the friendships and community we built here together. 

About a month and a half ago, I passed the baton to Master Storm and Master Phoenix, who now lead the Sunday Gratitude Reiki sessions. They also run the GratitudeReiki.com website alongside the wonderful Space Croissant Crew of 36 Reiki Masters.

Running ReikiShare is a labor of love, but it was also a lot of work for one person. Over the years, I learned many things about healing, compassion, gratitude, forgiveness, and what it means to truly love ourselves. 

Eventually, I realized I needed to put those lessons on paper so I could share what we do here with a broader audience.

The result is my first book, The Inner Mediator.

At its heart, the book is about learning to love yourself one body part at a time. It combines self-compassion, intuition, gratitude, forgiveness, and a little bit of whimsy. It invites readers to acknowledge the consciousness of their bodies and develop a kinder relationship with themselves. You guys knew that already. We've been doing this together every Sunday here on r/reikishare for almost 5 years. 

In many ways, ReikiShare and the Space Croissant Crew inspired the book and continue to inspire me to work. There are more books coming.

If you'd like to read The Inner Mediator, it's now available on Amazon. And if you have Kindle Unlimited, you can read it at no additional cost.

I've also started sharing content on TikTok and YouTube as username: CarolMediator and would love to connect with you there. I am doing daily Ho'oponopono on video for the body parts.

We also have plans for this coming Sunday. I will be reading the book live on Tiktok while we're doing Reiki Share here, starting at 1 pm EST. I will then upload the recording to YouTube.

Thank you for all the Sundays we shared together. You guys mean the world to me. 

With all my love,

Carol

REIKI SHARE DAY: 24 hrs of Free Reiki with the SPACE CROISSANT CREW today with the theme MASCULINE ENERGY AND MY DNA starts NOW!

REIKI SHARE DAY:  24 hrs of Free Reiki with the SPACE CROISSANT CREW today with the theme MASCULINE ENERGY AND MY DNA starts NOW! 

Hi, Everyone!

Last week was Mothers´ Day and the Space Croissant focused on Feminine Energy, Mother Energy, Unconditional Love, and the emotions, positive and negative, that come with Mothers´Day. 

For many, the feminine bloodline brings emotions  layered with love, grief, identity, memory and unresolved inner conflict. We know. It's OK. 

Today we will work on the Masculine Energy, in preparation for Fathers´ Day. The reason for doing it today is to balance out last week´s work. Masculine Energy can be heavy too, for many people, and we´re here to help you show your love, compassion, gratitude and forgiveness to the masculine side of your DNA. Yes, today you will love your DNA completely.   

We will say ho'oponopono to our DNA, the masculine and the feminine energies combined.  

We're gonna say: 

“I love you.”

“I'm sorry.”

“Please, forgive me.”

“Thank you.”

To our DNA. No matter what, it's your DNA, it's your body and it deserves love from you. Let's love our DNA and heal our maternal lineage today. 

THE LOVE CIRCLE

Imagine you're now in a circle surrounded by 36 Reiki practitioners sending you waves of UNCONDITIONAL LOVE and wrapping your DNA in UNCONDITIONAL LOVE. 

Imagine your body and mind  releasing excess negative thoughts, emotions, sensations, feelings, stress and pain. 

We will use the Violet Flame to cleanse the circle and stir away the pain and negativity. Your DNA will thank you. Imagine doing it for 20 mins. 

We will be here for 24 hrs making sure everyone has an opportunity to release pain and stress and find love within.

 Don't worry, we will be very gentle and take good care of your pain and excess negative emotions and feelings, if you have any. 

Hope you all feel well tomorrow and ready to start a new week. 

ABOUT CAMILLA BOK AND TODAY´S REIKI SHARE

Hi everyone, 

This is u/CamillaBok. As some of you already know, starting on May 31st Master Storm, aka u/impertrix, will be taking over Gratitude Reiki, the website, and our Sunday events here on r/reikishare and r/reiki. 

You can read more about it on my last post on r/reikishare. 

I am going back to work after years on disability following a brain injury and working with law and mediation is my dream. I´d be humbled if you were to follow my next chapter on TikTok and Instagram. My handle is @carolmediator.

I will continue to offer Reiki every Sunday and work with the Space Croissant Crew and the Reiki Without Borders project, but I need to pass the baton now. It´s been almost 5 years since myself and u/Fortune_Box started r/reikishare and it´s so beautiful to see the Space Croissant project grow.

I´m forever humbled by the unconditional love and kindness I found here on r/reikishare and r/reiki and I wish both Master Storm, aka u/impertrix and Master Phoenix the best! 

🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲

OUR TREE PROJECT WILL CONTINUE!

If you'd like to help us ground the session, consider planting a tree. 

Google “how to plant a tree for a dollar.” Share the receipt with us in the comments. It's a real tree and it's now forever connected to you, helping you breathe through difficult times.

Thank you for your kindness!

So far this year we have 110 trees planted! Our goal for 2026 is 500 trees. We're a bit behind. 

When you plant a tree you create a TREE-SELF and you can imagine that tree helping you BREATHE in REAL LIFE from now on and for the rest of your life. Let us know if your tree has a name too! 

🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲

This is it!  We're  excited for today's session!
We have a whole team of people doing Ground Control so you don't have to be afraid of spacing out and not knowing how to come back. Just stay in touch! 

Let us know tomorrow how you feel! The goal is for you to feel good now and heal your body and mind! 

Thank you!  

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
