Then I found Reiki and I did'nt really belived that I could learn it in just one weekend
After my first initiation the master looked at me and said: "Your home now are'nt you?"
And I was and I knew I would teach Reiki myself one day

So I did'nt try Reiki before, but I knew what healing was

Lisel,
Do you mean you healed yourself
or you healed other people.

Hi

I healed others - playing around with the energy. Problably not that smart, but I was very young and I wanted to help..

You gotta start some where.I
could not tolerate the sight
of blood. I knew Nursing was
not a career choice for me.
It's ironic since I became a
Reiki practitioner, I spend
time helping people in the
hospital. The one place I
always feared.

Haha - That's funny

And yes we all have to start somewhere and it's all a part of our personal journey, to become the best that we can be

It was headache, backpain and other things.
I got the headache, or I felt very tired. Sometimes I was ok after, but usually not..

Hi,


Yes, this seems to be common with folk drawn to Reiki...I get some of it as I`m a bit empathic by nature, but I do not ever remember becoming physically sick from another...The only time I have ever become sick from a treatment, was when treating a person while their spouse was in the same room. My intention was to work on the one person, yet apparently,(reiki decided for me) to affect one, meant treating both. It was an amazing experience for all three of us. Unfortinately, the next day i had to struggle for a few hours to feel normal again

I'd been involved in spiritual healing for a few years prior to hearing about Reiki. When i came across the name of a lady holding reiki training in my area I was curious..after an interesting phone call which involved many sweet synchronicities, I decided I'd like to receive some Reiki from her before signing up for any training with her. I wanted to see if she could 'walk her talk' turned out she could!! my first Reiki session with her was lovely, I floated in and out of my body whilst receiving, twas good enough for me.
