Hi folks
I'm back for a short while, had to re-register cos I forgot my details!
Anyway, a patient I'm treating at our local hospice has asked me to attune her to Reiki. I'm considering this, and the difficulty I have is as follows:
She has severe metastatic cancer, and one of the metastases has meant she has lost the use of her left arm, and she will have the arm amputated next month.
The attunement method I follow means the recipient has their hands in gassho, their hands get raised and lowered, and the symbols are placed into the palms. Now if she has a hand that can't move - or if she has only one arm - this becomes impossible.
I'm sure I can't be the only one who's faced this situation before. Can anyone give me any ideas as to how to attune her?
Cheers
