Dear amazed-by-reiki:
Yes, I do self-healing daily. Due to having osteoporosis, I injured my back and broke a bone in my pelvis last February, I concentrate more on those areas and not only do my hands heat up more in those places, but I can feel the heat penetrating deeply into my body. A Reiki heating pad. LOL.
In addition to the healing, Reiki has also given me the spirit and the energy to not give up, but to keep moving through the pain and doing what I am comfortably able to do, being mindful(as Firekeeper so kindly suggested)of not doing something beyond my capabilies.
I, too, am "amazed by Reiki".
Love, Light, and Reiki Everyday.
