EPISODE 44: ROBERT FUESTON
Based in Kentucky, Robert Fueston is a state-licensed and nationally board-certified acupuncturist and Chinese herbalist, Reiki Master, Author, and internationally recognized researcher and teacher of Reiki. He started his training in Usui Shiki Reiki Ryoho in 1996, and his desire to understand the movement of Reiki from Japan to the West set him on a path of researching Hawayo Takata and her role in bringing Reiki from Japan to the U.S.
With a Master of Library and Information Science and a post-master’s Certificate of Advanced Graduate Study in Library and Information Science, he spent decades studying with and researching the Takata Masters in order to understand the preservation and, at times, alterations of the Reiki system. The results were published in an eye-opening book, "Reiki: Transmission of Light." Additionally, Robert participated as a team member in the organization of the Historical Archives of The Reiki Alliance and as a member of the Hawayo Takata Archive Team.
