IHReiki* Shinpiden graduates (and their Shinpiden students) get together about once a month in Manhattan for a focused and deep practice together, with optional chat time after at a nearby cafe. It's fun, too (laughing is such a great by-product of being Reiki, isn't it?), but the emphasis is on delving deeply into the classical Japanese practices, especially the Shinpiden-level techniques we don't always get to explore with others as a group. It's a no-judgment zone; each of us starts where we …

This group is for people who are new to NYC - we seek fun, chill, open-minded college-going/grads who are looking to meet interesting people, explore this awesome city, and party like anima …

… Have you just graduated with an MBA and finding out that your interviewers are telling you that you do not have experience or required skills? These aspirations & thoughts have intrigued me for the past few years. Surprisingly, I had a long career in finance with some of the top Wall Street companies, yet never got exposure to learn a number of business-critical skills. I was always interested in trying to do something on my own but “number-crunching” alone did not empower me to “think” business …
