Shinkiko Blog

Recently, we held the 400th Shinkiko Retreat seminar in Inawashiro, Fukushima Prefecture. We would like to express our sincere gratitude to the 30 people who participated. Some people participated in retreat seminar for the first time, some participated for the first time in 30 years, and some people who were reunited after several years. Your enthusiasm seemed to spread a warm circle of light in the land of Inawashiro. We would like to express our sincere gratitude.

What I felt most deeply during this seminar was the deepening of awareness among those who have been practicing Shinkiko for a long time. What initially started as a personal concern spread to include family and ancestors, and people are connected by the invisible connection of Shinkiko light. Shinkiko from the universe illuminates the soul of the person who accepts it, and that light reaches those around them. When you shine, those around you also shine, and this resonance spreads the circle of happiness. The strong desire of everyone who seeks Ki will have the power to change the energy environment of the place for the better.

The Qigong training course, which my predecessor started in 1990, has reached a milestone of 400 times, and it seemed that people who shared a mission to spread light had gathered together.

To commemorate this memorable 400th seminar, I have decided to release the HG type Ki Plate Card, which I introduced last week, for a limited time until the end of May.

Additionally, all participants in this seminar were given a transparent B5 hard card case (not for sale) as a gift. The SAS triple mark was laser engraved on this card case, and a 40-micron etching sheet with a single HG-type pyramid mark laser engraved on it was enclosed inside the case.

By putting photos and other items in this card case, you can use it as a remote Shinkiko device in the same way as an HG card. Also, by removing the etching sheet and inserting it into the Hi Genki 3 or 6, you can use it as one set of upgrade service (normal price 45,500 yen, special price 22,000 yen).

Many people are already using our Shinkiko item, the Shinkiko Frame, to remotely send Ki to their loved ones, and we hope that by inscribing the name and photo of a loved one in this commemorative clear case, people will be able to continue sending “Shinkiko” to many people in the future.

Due to popular demand, we plan to share these commemorative gifts with participants of Shinkiko Retreat seminar in Azumino, which begins on the 3rd of next month. The 400th Shinkiko Retreat seminar is just a milestone. This summer, we will be holding a one-day seminar at each center. We will continue to work together with you to spread the circle of light, so we appreciate your continued support.

Thanks to everyone’s support, our Shinkiko retreat seminar in Fukushima, which begins today, will be held for the 400th time. We would like to express our sincere gratitude to everyone who is helping to spread the circle of light together.

Shinkiko retreat seminar is not just a place to learn knowledge and techniques of Ki, but a special place to hone your inner light and develop “good Ki senders” who can share that warm energy with those around you.  Just like lighting a light in the darkness and illuminating those around you, past participants are spreading the light of hope in their own places.

To commemorate this memorable 400th event, and to show our gratitude to everyone, we will be selling a new business card-sized Ki item, the “Ki Plate Card HG Type,” for a limited time until the end of May.

This card is the same size as the conventional Ki Plate Card, but is stronger, thinner, lighter, and easier to carry. It uses a thin aluminum plate and is not laminated, so it looks smart.

The front side has a reduced version of the pyramid mark, the same as the HG card, and the back side has the SAS triple mark, which is an antenna that collects Ki, laser engraved on it.

Since last year, it has become clear that the laser-engraved pyramid mark and triple SAS mark have the ability to relay even greater amounts of Ki, and this new card can be described as an “evolved version” that makes use of this.

The most recommended way to use it is to put it in your wallet together with your money and credit cards.  You can also put it in your smartphone case.

For us, a wallet is not just a tool for putting money in and taking it out; it is one of the most familiar items that supports our daily lives and is always carried when we go out.

By inserting the “Ki Plate Card HG Type” into your wallet, the entire wallet will be filled with Ki, transforming it into something like a “light charger.”

Money passes through many hands and travels to many different places before it comes into our hands. We believe that keeping that money surrounded by good “Ki” and allowing it to circulate comfortably again to those around us is essential to building a society filled with light.

For that reason, we thought it would be good to have people use chi products with a higher chi relay capacity in their wallets.

We want as many people as possible to experience its effects, and as a token of our appreciation, we have set the price at 9,680 yen, the same as the Ki Plate Card, for a limited time only.  We hope you will use it and send us your experience stories.

＊Taiyaki is a fish shaped cake(waffle) with sweet red bean inside.

Last week, I felt so heavy that I couldn’t do anything about it. My mood was gloomy, and I was hit by a deep fatigue that was similar to depression. The work I had to do was piling up, various thoughts were swirling in my head, and I was getting more and more impatient, so I ended up not starting anything, and time just passed by mercilessly… That was the situation I was in. Negative energy that hates light can act as a hindrance, and it seems that I was affected by a fairly strong negative energy.

At that time, my wife bought some delicious taiyaki from a famous, long-established store. The warm, fragrant smell, gentle sweetness, and chewy texture seemed to seep into my body. To my surprise, while eating the taiyaki, something like “motivation” welled up inside me. I thought, “Let’s try the easiest thing first.” In the end, that was the trigger, and as I worked on it one by one, “I’ve done this,” “Next,” I finished as planned.

This is a phenomenon that occurs when the energy of Shinkiko reaches negative energy, turns into light, and tries to escape. The heavier the negative energy, the more difficult it becomes. If I had just a little more energy, it would have been better, but I was just one step away from it, and my positive thought of “it’s delicious” became a light-like lure that transformed the negative energy into light.

No matter what the situation, we who have bodies will not be defeated by negative energy.  Shinkiko emitted by positive thoughts, and the way to experience things that are pleasant with the five senses will always guide negative energy into light.

When you’re one step away, I recommend trying things that make you feel “comfortable” through your five senses, like taiyaki for me, hot drinks, beautiful music, pleasant scents, and pleasant baths. Even simple stretching and deep breathing can not only make you feel good, but also balance the energy of your body’s Ki, and it’s also good to slightly tidy up your surroundings and clothing to feel “refreshed.”

Even a little bit of tidying up, such as tidying up your desk, can bring in positive energy. Furthermore, small steps can be a springboard, so it’s a good idea to try doing something for just five minutes. You’ll be surprised at how much time you set aside to work on it can lead to the next five minutes and even beyond that. Finally, try to consciously feel the light of Shinkiko through the main body and applicator of the Hi Genki device. Try combining various things to increase the light even if just a little. Small steps can turn heavy negative energy into light, and eventually bring about big changes.

Spring is a season of big changes in life, such as entering school, continuing to higher education, and getting a job. Many people are probably noticing various changes in themselves and their families.

Along with the excitement of a new environment, you may also feel anxious and worried. For example, if your child or grandchild is entering school, you may worry about whether they will be able to adapt to the new school or keep up with their studies. Also, if you are a new member of society, you may feel anxious about whether you will be able to keep up with work and whether your relationships at work will go well.

In this way, spring, a time of many changes, evokes a wide range of emotions in our mind. This is why this season can be said to be a great opportunity to take a good look at your own mind.

First, look back at the events you experienced during this “spring season” and recall the emotions you felt at the time. For example, even something small is fine, such as “I was happy to make new friends at the school entrance ceremony” or “I felt lonely after moving.” Then, look at the background that gave rise to those emotions. Ask yourself, “Why was I happy?” or “Why did I feel lonely?”

This is also the season when the people around you do a lot for you, so it’s a good idea to pay attention to that as well. You will realize that you are who you are today thanks to the support of the people around you, such as your family, friends, and colleagues. If you can express your gratitude, such as “I’m grateful to my family for always watching over me warmly,” or “I’m grateful to my friends for helping me when I’m in trouble,” the positive energy will be more strongly supported.

If you are feeling the strong influence of negative energy, such as anxiety or worry, there may be past experiences that are connected to your current emotions, so try to recall the specific situations in which you felt those emotions.

By introspecting while receiving Shinkiko, you may be able to see the connection between your past experiences and your current emotions. Then, when the light reaches the negative energy that was related to those experiences, you will feel your heart become lighter.

We also recommend using a diary to write down your feelings and thoughts, and sharing your reflections with trusted people or staff. Furthermore, participating in Shinkiko retreat seminar or Shinkiko lessons and deepening your learning with other members will lead to great growth.

Spring is a season of change, but it is also a chance for growth. With the help of Shinkiko, face your own heart and discover a new you.

Spring is in full bloom again, and the cherry blossom season has come. There is a famous cherry blossom viewing spot nearby, so the population density around the station increases dramatically during this season. This year, there seem to be many people visiting from abroad, and I am surprised at how popular the cherry blossoms are. Everyone will be soothed by the positive energy of the cherry blossoms.

Master Tatsumura, who teaches yoga in our retreat seminar, teaches us about the interaction of “Ki” with trees. Trees, plants, and all living things, including us humans, have “Ki”, a life energy.

In the case of cherry blossoms, perhaps they are deeply influenced by the emotions that Japanese people have had since ancient times. The joy of spring, the melancholy of the fleeting petals, the hope for new beginnings… these may resonate with the “Ki” of cherry blossoms and give us a special healing power.

“By directing your feelings, you become more likely to receive Ki” – this is a very important point when it comes to taking in good “Ki”. By being captivated by the beauty of the cherry blossoms and having a heart that is genuinely moved by them, you will be able to feel the positive energy of the cherry blossoms more strongly.

Conversely, if you are caught up in negative emotions such as dissatisfaction or anger, you will be more likely to attract negative “Ki,” and if you are already strongly influenced by negative “Ki,” you will be more likely to resonate with similar bad “Ki.”

Therefore, it is important to always be in a state of mind where you are in tune with positive Ki, and to receive Shinkiko to raise your own “Ki.”  In particular, during this time of year when you will have many new encounters and learning opportunities, it is recommended that you have warm feelings towards others. The pure desire to do something for someone, to help someone in need, will in itself generate strong positive Ki. This will first raise your own “Ki,” which will gradually spread to those around you. Being conscious of “sending good Ki” will in the end attract good things to yourself.

Just as we are captivated by the beauty of cherry blossoms, it would be good if we could be conscious of treating those around us with kindness and generosity in our daily lives. These small actions will first warm our own hearts and fill them with comfortable “Ki.” Then, that “Ki” will surely spread to the hearts of those around us, creating peaceful connections.

Open your hearts to the beautiful cherry blossoms and extend warm feelings to the people around you. By doing so, our own “Ki” will increase, and we will be able to welcome a more fulfilling spring.

The other day, we were in an elevator together. While the adults were standing there quietly, my son, who will soon be one and a half years old, suddenly started yelling “Ah, ah” loudly. I thought there might be a bit of awkwardness, but everyone around us was smiling and watching over our son. The atmosphere instantly became more relaxed, and I breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, I once again realized the existence of an invisible energy called “atmosphere.” Atmosphere is a kind of “Ki” that cannot be measured by science. We are always living under the influence of this atmosphere, both in a good and bad way.

For example, in a sad atmosphere such as a funeral, you will feel sad and tearful. In situations where you have to “perform a certain way,” such as a presentation, everyone has probably experienced being overwhelmed by the oppressive atmosphere caused by tension and pressure, and not being able to perform to your full potential. On the other hand, in a bright and lively place, you can naturally feel uplifted and your creativity can be stimulated.

When we are surrounded by bright, positive energy, we naturally smile and feel positive, but when we are influenced by dark, negative energy, our spirits can become depressed and we may not be able to demonstrate our true potential.

The important thing is to always continue to send out positive energy without being swayed by the atmosphere around you. To do this, you need to develop a strong mind that will not be defeated by negative energy, and to raise your own energy so that you are not swallowed up by the atmosphere around you.

It is also important to consciously make efforts to cultivate a joyful mind in your daily life. For example, listening to your favorite music, admiring beautiful scenery, and talking with like-minded friends can all help to increase your mental energy.

Also, remembering to be grateful and always trying to use positive words is also an effective way to radiate good energy. Expressing gratitude for even small things can help improve relationships with the people around you and create a better atmosphere.

Also, if you find that you are easily overwhelmed by the atmosphere and are unable to perform to your full potential, it is possible that your past self or your ancestors were strongly influenced by negative energy, so it would be a good idea to focus your attention on this and receive Shinkiko.

We who have access to Shinkiko at all times can use it effectively in our daily lives, consciously emitting good Ki, and living each day filled with positive energy.

Today, the Shinkiko Retreat seminar began in Soja City, Okayama Prefecture. The first time it was held here was over ten years ago, and it is held every other year, so I have been here five times already. However, I had never been interested in the somewhat unusual place name Soja. So this time, I decided to look into it.

It said, “The origin of the shrine is Soja-gu Shrine, which was built at the end of the Heian Period. In order to avoid the inconvenience of having to make pilgrimages to shrines throughout Bitchu Province, the gods of 324 shrines were enshrined here.” As with Ise in Mie in January and Dazaifu in Fukuoka last month, there was a shrine near the venue this time as well, so I felt a renewed connection with the gods, and was amazed that so many gods could be enshrined here.

By the way, Shinkiko Retreat seminar is a place where people who participate are drawn together by a mysterious connection, as if they were drawn by a magnet. This year marks the 399th time the course has been held, exactly 35 years in the past, and what I have come to realize over the years is that “here awaits you, an invaluable experience and learning that you could never have obtained on your own.”

When people come together, various realizations and discoveries are born. This doesn’t only happen when the teacher speaks, but also when surprising words are hidden in casual conversations between participants, and someone’s gestures can convey deep emotions that cannot be expressed in words.

For example, a past experience shared by one participant may provide a clue to solving a problem that another participant had, and a question posed by another participant may become an opportunity to deepen the understanding of all participants. Valuable learning can also be found in the casual conversations that take place during breaks and meal times during seminar.

The energy of Shinkiko changes negative Ki into positive Ki, and I believe this is the result of the support of all the positive Ki that has changed us up until now.

Since the time of our predecessor, our retreat seminar have placed importance on group living, and it is for exactly this reason.

By spending time together, learning together, and experiencing together, participants build deep relationships of trust, and become people who support and improve each other. They are friends who use the energy of the universe, Shinkiko, in themselves and around themselves (that is, on this earth) to change the Ki environment.

The time spent with friends who have come together through a mysterious bond is an irreplaceable treasure. I believe that the bond that the gods of the shrine have created is also a major factor here. What kind of seminar will it be? I’m looking forward to it this time as well.

The other day, two of the three elevators were undergoing maintenance, and there was a long line for the remaining one. It took a long time for people to get in, and some people’s faces showed signs of frustration. At that moment, the proverb “haste makes waste” suddenly came to mind. Feeling hasty can lead to carelessness and unexpected mistakes. This proverb is said  to have been around since the mid-Edo period, and people in the past, just like people today, were always careful to avoid a hasty mind.

Whether it’s waiting in line at the store or your computer is running slowly, we are always faced with a feeling of urgency.

Behind this urgency lies a “negative energy” that works to hinder us and make us fail. Negative energy makes our minds restless and invites carelessness.

For example, when we are in a hurry, we can’t find things or we trip on the stairs… This is because negative energy is taking away our concentration and making us distracted. Also, when we are in a hurry, we can’t see the situation around us and can cause trouble for others.

Negative Ki controls our minds and prevents us from exerting our true potential, but if we are aware of it and are conscious of it, we can minimize the effects of negative Ki and make it easier to receive support from positive Ki.

So, when do we create a rushed mind?

For me, it seems like the dangerous times are when I’m pressed for time on the train or somewhere else, when a deadline is approaching at work, or when I have a lot to plan and feel anxious. And to minimize this as much as possible, I have come up with and tried out my own countermeasures, such as prioritizing my work and making plans.

Also, when you start to feel rushed, it’s important to take a deep breath and calm your mind. Also, remember the saying “haste makes waste” and try to act without rushing.

It’s also effective to consciously create time to relax in your daily life. For example, getting up a little earlier in the morning to make time to relax, or taking advantage of the Shinkiko time in the evening to use more Hi Genki and take in more Ki into your mind and body, which will help keep negative Ki away. By becoming aware of our hectic mind and changing our connection with negative energy, we become more susceptible to receiving support from positive energy, and as a result, we can live calmer and more fulfilling lives.

When I’m tired but still have something to do, I (funny enough) try to stay away from our couch. When I sit on the couch, it’s as if time has stopped and I can’t move, and then I don’t want to do anything.

Medically speaking, this can be said to be a natural reaction in which the parasympathetic nervous system becomes dominant and the mind and body enter a rest mode. However, in the back of my mind, I still have thoughts like “I have to do this” and “I want to finish this,” so I can’t simply leave it to my body’s desires. Because of the negative energy effects that I always talk about, when there is something that needs to be done, the key to truly recovering from fatigue is to take the plunge and get it done first. From a Ki perspective, it is recommended that you get into the habit of finishing what you need to do and then taking a rest.

Invisible “negative energy” exists around us, and whenever it sees an opportunity, it tries to hinder our actions. Especially when you feel “tired,” you are already under the influence of negative energy. The reason why we can’t take in action even when we want to do something can be thought of as the work of this negative energy. At times like this, by resisting negative energy and acting with strong will, we can bounce back from its influence and increase our “ki energy.” In other words, action is power. Therefore, if you postpone taking in action, you are giving more and more opportunities for negative energy to take advantage of you. By starting with what you can and taking in action little by little, you will be able to keep away negative energy and make it easier to receive support from positive energy. Furthermore, the energy of Shinkiko reduces the influence of negative Ki, so it is important to receive Ki on a regular basis.
