I was chatting to a Reiki client the other day about some relationship and work issues he was having. I asked him a question that I ask a lot of my clients, and ask myself a lot, which I believe is actually one of the best questions you could ever ask yourself.

Recently I had someone ask me how they could better deal with people in their life who were being negative and critical. Been there, got the t shirt! Negative peeps are like crabs.
