Month: February 2024

As announced in Hi Genki Magazine, a new base, KÌPLACE, will open in Ikebukuro, Tokyo. The opening ceremony will be streamed today via Zoom, and the recording will also be available for viewing on the member site.

This KÌPLACE originated from the “Shinkiko Cafe”, which was briefly introduced in the May 2019 issue of Hi Genki Magazine (No. 348).

Since 2018, SAS has been holding the “Shinkiko Cafe” once a month at the Tokyo Center. Hi Genki Magazine (No. 348) introduces this in detail, but I have two younger sisters, and the three of us focus on Shinkiko, and we aim to reach out to the general public and help them understand what Ki is. Can’t you do it? That’s what I started with.

My younger sister has always been good at cooking and sweets, especially brownies, a chocolate cake that originated in America, and last year she opened a Brownies Cafe in Ekoda, Tokyo.

My youngest sister has been teaching Music Gyoho at the Shinkiko Retreat seminar since 1994, and she has been helping out with my younger sister’s cafe, so I will use that experience to run KÌPLACE.

Ki is something that cannot be seen with the naked eye and cannot be understood by science. I am working to encourage as many people as possible to use the energy of Shinkiko from the universe, as it can change our consciousness and mindset for the better.

It has been 38 years since Shinkiko started in 1986, and thanks to the support of many people, we have grown to have a very thick membership, from veterans to beginners.

“Shinkiko Café” is not just about sessions and retreat seminar but we believe that if a variety of people can gather and talk in a more relaxed manner, new insights will be born, and new people will be brought to such a place. I started thinking that maybe I should take her with me. KÌPLACE will develop this into a base for disseminating Ki information, so we look forward to your continued support.

At KÌPLACE, we will prioritize reservations for four session rooms divided into one-hour slots.

In addition to Ki sessions conducted by staff and self-use by members, members are also free to apply Hi Genki to their family and friends.

In addition to seminars, we also plan to hold concerts and other events on a regular basis, so we think it will be used by a wide range of people.

When I talk to the members, I sometimes hear people say, “It’s because I’m old.” Every time I do that, I say, “That’s because of (negative) Ki”(laugh). It’s true that we face various problems due to age, which can make us hesitate to take on new challenges. However, the words “because I’m old” often limit our own potential, intensify the influence of negative energy, and deprive us of opportunities for growth. Today, I will explain what I am careful not to use my age as an excuse.

First of all, you will be exposed to stories of people who take on challenges beyond their age and are able to experience growth. For example, stories of people who started a new job or mastered a hobby at a late age show us that age is not a hindrance. My grandfather was a practicing therapist until he was 95 years old, and that’s a role model for me, and Dr. Ryoichi Obitsu, whom I respect, writes ageless articles for Higenki Magazine. I believe that having the feeling that “I might be able to do it too…” will help you remove the limitations that bind you.

Also, negative energy hates finding good things. So while it’s good to set big goals, it’s also important to accumulate small successes. In other words, by gaining a lot of “good” experiences, there is no room for negative energy to take advantage of you.

And instead of thinking, “I can’t do it because I’m old,” it’s important to think, “As I’ve gotten older, I’ve had more experience,” or “I’m blaming my age because it’s a negative influence.” I believe that by receiving Shinkiko and changing the way you feel on a daily basis to a positive one, the influence of negative Ki can be reduced.

Age and physical health problems are inseparable. The Shinkiko Retreat seminar incorporates yoga by Mr. Osamu Tatsumura, but in addition to moderate exercise, eating a balanced diet is necessary to keep both body and mind healthy.

Finally, as you get older, things may not go as planned as before. When things don’t go well, think flexibly, change your plans, change your approach, get help from others, receive the Shinkiko, etc., and work hard without giving in to negative energy. I think it means no.

Shinkiko is an energy that permeates the soul, bringing awareness to people and encouraging growth. There is no end to the growth of the soul, to its radiance. Even after you lose your body, let’s continue to “live in the present” with the intention of aiming for a higher light.

Compared to when I was an office worker, I feel much less depressed. In general, self-evaluation often decreases due to failure and comparison with others, which can lead to a drop in Ki, or if you are already under the influence of negative Ki, and your self-evaluation remains low, you will become more and more negative Ki. Some people find themselves in a vicious cycle of collecting.

Today, I’d like to summarize some advice to improve your self-evaluation. First, recognize and celebrate your accomplishments, even the small ones.For example, by creating a list every day and praising yourself when you accomplish it, even if it’s a small thing, acknowledging your efforts will strengthen your positive energy and improve your self-esteem.

Second, change the negative dialogue you have with yourself into a positive one.Instead of thinking, “I’m not good enough,” when you fail, tell yourself, “I didn’t do well this time, but I can do better next time,” thereby reducing the influence of negative energy trying to bring you down.

Third, don’t compare yourself to others.Instead of looking at other people’s success and getting depressed, try comparing your past to your present and evaluate how much you’ve grown and progressed.

Fourth, by acknowledging your weaknesses and making efforts to improve them, you eliminate the possibility of negative energy taking advantage of you.For example, if you are not good at computers, try to improve your skills by attending classes.

In some cases, the negative energy of an ancestor who is blaming themselves for making a big mistake in the past and is in pain, or who is trying to lead others in that family into misfortune, may be a predisposition to lower self-esteem.

However, this will change, so please try practicing the above while receiving Shinkiko.

Japan has a variety of traditional events, rites of passage, and rituals. At our house, we held a “first meal” for our son on the 100th day after he was born. This is a traditional event with a long history that has been held since the Heian period, and it is a prayer for healthy growth so that “you will never have to worry about food for the rest of your life.” I didn’t know much about it, so I learned a lot from it. Japan is a country with a rich history, but there are still many things we don’t know.

The existence of such things probably means that in the past, children often had trouble eating, and because medical care was not advanced, they often died soon after birth. Science was not advanced, there were no machines or things, and the challenges our ancestors faced, such as wars, epidemics, and natural disasters, may be greater than we can imagine today.

The strength and courage of our ancestors who survived such harsh times is the foundation that allows us to live peaceful and prosperous lives today, and even if we lose our bodies, we still have an abundance of Ki energy. I am receiving support from my ancestors who have given me a certain positive energy. There are some people who lose their soul energy and become negative Ki due to painful conditions, but all of us who are alive emit a light-like Ki, and that is the reason why. It is sent to such ancestors. Furthermore, if you receive the Ki energy of Shinkiko, you will be able to send a tremendous amount of Ki to your ancestors through yourself.

This time, I have summarized the things you should be aware of when sending Ki to such ancestors.

When sending Ki to a living person, imagining that person will help break down barriers and make it easier for Ki to pass through, but it is very important to know the background of how our ancestors lived. For example, you can learn about the hardships and joys of your ancestors by hearing stories about your family’s history from your grandparents and other relatives. I also recommend getting a certified copy of your expulsion from the register, as you can learn more about your ancestors up until the Meiji era. By learning about the era in which our ancestors lived and what kind of difficulties they faced, and thinking about it in our own terms, we can increase the things we are grateful for in our lives and develop the habit of being grateful for even the small things. It is to put it on. For example, delicious food, a safe place to live, and time with family and friends are things we take for granted, but by being grateful for these things every day, it becomes easier for the light to reach us.

More importantly, while we turn our thoughts to the hardships that our ancestors overcame, we ourselves must receive the Shinkiko as we face our daily challenges. By doing so, any negative energy will turn into light, and you will be able to receive support from many positive energies.
