- Quel amrun! Saesa omentien lle. Sut naa lle umien sina re?
- Lle quena i'lambe tel' Eldalie?
- Well, if not I will do my best in English

- why work off the body? There may be presences in the more subtle bodies that might respond to energy directed there rather than the dense body
- one may feel these or get clues from the person with whom one is doing reiki
- added implications?? Remember, intentionally poking around in someone elses subtle bodies, even with his\her permission, can leave us open to picking up some stuff we'd rather not have - and we might possibly share some of our stuff that others might not want or potentiate energy activity the person is not expecting (any of these scenarios being potential 'harm' issues)
- can this happen even during a hands-on only session? Sure. This is why permission, intention, and mindfulness are so crucial to Reiki practices. But I would say the liklihood is much lower for straight forward, hands-on only Reiki.
- hope this helps
- oh yes, my sparse bio says I am employed in a rehabilitation hospital (and not one for those whose broken English needs rehabbing)- bagl
- though the bio might be amended to read: "reitred! but too dumb to clean out his desk"
bagl
- take care,
Reiki All Around,
All Blessings,
