Yes, please give my permission for any one to send me Reiki healings.
I am asking folks to send Reiki to Debbie W. a Reiki Practitioner who has under gone some radiation treatments and could use some support to help her alleviate her pain and heal.

My shaman instructor calls this being a midwife for the unseen world. At times, this means birthing someone into their new existence after physical death.

i have assisted a few people during transitions
like this one. I know what I'm suppose to feel
and do. I'm still learning to accept the difference,
with each one it does not make it easier.
Right now Debbie has accepted hospice and is concerned
more about her Husband. Such pain & heartache all rolled
into one.

My grandmother (my dad's step mom--never met my real grandmother as she died when my dad was 9) was recently diagnosed with terminal liver cancer. That was in April and they gave her maybe a year to live. She's 90. She is apparently feeling fine now, and is going to have a celebration of her life party in October.
My shamanic practice has a lesson in "deathing" someone. I'm not even sure how to bring this up to my grandmother, let alone whether I could follow through with it. I know that I would make the effort if she wanted me to though.
So I do understand the feeling of conflict that arises when one is presented with such a situation.

Wow! "deathing" that's a strong terminology
over transitioning. I would have thought that
Shamanic would refer death as leaving the body (vessel)?
When she spoke to us of the occurence, she used the words, "It isn't
easy to kill someone who is so young and at one time so full of life
and potential."

So if anyone wants to share any thoughts on this eventuality...

Andy, I'm not sure I understand what she meant by that... can you explain?

It is where you actually die..
I underwent one of these..the monk was blowing on a human femur bone and reciting mantras while I just lay there..then it was exactly like one of those scenes in a movie where the person leaves there body below them..though instead of just hollywood style hovering over and gazing down at ones self, it felt like my soul or spirit simply merged with a huge white light that seemed to contain everything...
I have no idea how long this went on for, I didn't even have a concept of my body, let alone time..so when he summoned us back it took a while before I felt inclined to speak or do anything.. I just lay down there on the bed feeling very calm and peaceful...From that day on I can honestly say that I shook off whatever fear I might have had about my own death...those were pre reiki days for me then too, and it makes me think about the reiki master symbol as not just something to be used during initiations, but rather of the source of all that is.....kevin
Arabella wrote:Amazing!
So... would the actions taken here be similar to what was done deathing someone who was actually dying?
Off-topic a bit, a while back I had a visit, in spirit, from my deceased former FIL and my former MIL who is in a nursing home. She has Altzheimers. I felt they were telling me she wanted to be freed and that they thought there was something I could do.
What Dying People Want
BEING TOUCHED, BEING IN TOUCH by David Kuhl, M.D.
"I stayed with Bill, my husband, as he lay dying. I feel so bad now that I didn't lie beside him on the bed and hold him in my arms! I'm reading about this now, the need to touch. But worse than that was, I sent the children away. They came to say goodbye to their father. They stood there and talked with him and said what they had to say, which was very stoic. They didn't touch him, they didn't sit on the bed. I would have liked some direction. I wish I'd been told that it's okay to lie on the bed and put my arms around him and hold him while he's dying instead of sitting on a chair. I wish someone had told me that my children should stay with their father and sit beside him, sit on the edge of the bed, touch him, hold his hand, talk to him, and stay until he dies. But there was no one. I wish someone had been there to tell me how to do it right—which I now know but didn't know then."
