Donna,
Hi,
Where you put your mind is up to you. During Reiki perhaps focus on where you want the energy to go and stay focused there. If other thoughts intrude that is OK: happens all the time even during mindfulness meditation. They key is to see the thought and then let it go away turning your mind back to that place where you are sending energy. Or, simpl;y focus on your breathing while you do Reiki. And, as thoughts arise see them then let them go and re-focus on your breathing.
And, I would rather doubt that Reiki 2, alone, will cure this issue. Experienced meditation Teachers still have 'thoughts arising' as they meditate. They simply do not wander off with those thoughts.
:)
Cheers,
