Jean Ferris Reiki Master and Patient Advocate

Marilyn, Patsy, Jean
Honolulu Hawaii
June 2015






















Having Jean on your team was incredible. With her great medical knowledge, Reiki Wisdom and Reiki Practitioner skills, she represented each person with great skill and compassion. With Jean's friends, Patsy and Marilyn in their 80's and with Patsy facing a life threatening health crisis, Jean was there for them day and night. Marilyn wrote," Jean put us back together so often with lots of Reiki. The first few days after Patsy's fast trip to the hospital, Jean was right there, probing the doctors for more information and explaining everything to us and Patsy's family in a way we could hear and understand. We spent precious hours in the hospital together." This took place less than a month from Jean's death. They are so very grateful for Jean's Reiki and rapid intervention which saved Patsy's life. This was Jean's way, she was there for you when you needed help. There is no one like her.

Sgt. James Cullens Henderson, USMC, Ex POW WW ll and Reiki

My mother's cousin Jimmie as he was called in our family was 2 years older than my mother. They were very close. During WW ll, both he and his sister Hope joined the USMC. He was shipped out to the Pacific theater, serving with the 4th Marine Regiment, Headquarters Company 3rd Battalion on the Island of Corregidor. In May 1942 he became a POW with the fall of  Corregidor, in the Phillipine Islands to the Japanese. Along with many prisoners they were taken to Osaka Japan on one of the notorious Hellships, the Tottori Maru where they endured horrible conditions with little food, water and many died in route. He was a prisoner of war for over 3 years and endured much suffering and ill health. He was awarded the Prisoner of War Medal.
















When my mother found she was pregnant with twins, his mother said, "if we name one of the babies after Jimmie it will assure him to come home". I was named Barbara Cullens Reid and Jimmie did make it back to Texas after the war ended in Sept 1945. My mother taught him how to be a book keeper and got him a job.

Towards the end of Jimmie's life, Jean initiated him into 1st Degree Reiki in El Paso, Texas. He was open to receiving a healing tradition from Japan to free himself of all his wounds caused by the Japanese. He said to my mother, he could not believe the light that would come out of Jean's eyes when she was teaching the class. He lived until he was 81.

This Veteran's Day, I will honor Jimmie, Hope, Jean, my father Bob and myself for serving our country and for having Reiki in our family.

Reiki Treats All Systems, Glands and Organs



Drawing by S. Betz, Taos, NM Artist and
Reiki Student of Jean's

























We sit in our First Degree Reiki Class and hear this sentence. For most people, this has little meaning to them. After 30 years of hearing this and knowing this, this could be one of the most significant sentences that  Reiki Masters share with their students.

As our etheric energy fields enter our physical body they penetrate and activate all of our systems, glands and organs. A full, hands on Reiki treatment sends balancing energy to each of these bodily pathways.

Systems: Nervous, Digestive, Cardio-Pulmonary, etc.
Glands: Pituitary, Adrenal, Mammary, Prostate,etc.
Organs: Brain, Heart, Lungs, Etc

The depth of this profound sentence has new mystical and magical teachings for me. This is the divine truth, I can hold on to this sentence forever. Treat yourself daily, and reap the unfathomable benefit of Reiki.


Jean's Lost Ring--Takata to the Rescue


Jean"s Wedding and Engagement Ring






One Christmas while I was spending time with Jean, we took Sister Carol with us to visit Phyllis Furumoto and Joyce Winough in Arizona. During the visit, Jean lost her ring and we couldn't find it.

Phyllis suggested her Grandmother was wonderful in returning lost items. We all had a discussion with Mrs. Takata and several days after we departed, the ring showed up on their carpet by the bathroom door. Thank you Reiki and thank you, Mrs. Takata.

Erin, Jean's daughter, has it now in her
possession.

Finders, Keepers, Losers, Weepers


There are so many seekers, not so many finders. When we find a seeker who finds the truth and holds on tight to it, then we know in our hearts, they become keepers. Jean Ferris was a Keeper of the Truth.


























This little saying from my childhood keeps playing in my head, Finders, Keepers, Loser's, Weepers. I thought I'd better look into it. There are lots of poems, books, songs by this name. This one caught my eye.

Finders, Keepers, Losers, Weepers by
Percy Beal
I held it so tight in my hand 
never lost sight of it 
the moon was just right for your plan. 

Then one day,it just slipped out to play 
Never saw where it dropped 
looking I'll never stop. 

(finders keepers) 

Had a dream one night,thought I seen it from a light 

Was it mine? 
Did it really shine or glow? 
The way your eyes do when you cry. 

(Losers Weepers) 

I'm looking for my little charm 
Did you see it? 
Tell me where did you go 
I would like to know. 

(FINDERS KEEPERS loser's Weepers) 

I've lost the only charm that was near my Heart 
It gave me joy and Laughter 
Until we drifted apart. 

(Losers Weepers) 

I need that little charm 
It helped me when I felt down 
showed me how to Love and changed my Life around. 

(Finders Keepers Losers Weepers) 

Where ever you should go 
I just want to tell you so 
It was great having you around. 

We all are charmed by Reiki and Jean.
They go hand and hand, like PB&J.
Finder's Keepers.
With this combination, there are no losers, but there are many weepers at this time. 

We can treat ourselves with Reiki or do the Hokey Pokey until we turn ourselves around.

Sacred Initiation: From Jean's Notebook



Point of Light by jcfrm Dec 2002 , Honolulu, Hawaii

Let me always hold the Sacredness of this Path of Initiation
It is a point of light that traces me back to my origin
It embraces me, as I embrace it.
Yet, I cannot hold onto to it.
It flashes through me and it changes me.

The receiver is set on a new path and embarks into mystery:
 a journey of knowing the unknown.

How long have I known this Path of Initiation?
Just as fingerprints are on my fingers, it is imprinted onto my Soul.
There has never been a time when it has not been with me!
This I know.
