< I wonder if all Reiki people feel that way or if there are some that just experience it without 'really' experiencing it if you know what I mean. :)

Dear Helen,

I would theorize that to be true. I think some people don't associate the changes or experience with the Reiki attunement though.

I've known a few talented practitioners who over time found the whole thing to be too challenging and ended up turning away from Reiki.

Namaste,
Michael

Thank you, Firekeeper....I think we are "somewhere on the same page"....I like that a lot.

Fred...your words just make me feel soooo good. Thank you for sharing your wonder and joy of Reiki.

Hello all,

Although for most of it i wasnt sure what the symbols meant.lol I love being able to help people. And soon i hope to help people help people by becoming a master. It has brought alot of great experiences and people into my life. I am not closed mouthed about reiki. I love talking about it to people.

Plus i have faith that i am where im soppose to be. thanks for posting this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Harmony,

Namaste :)

Thanks for sharing. I have often wondered whether we carry Reiki forward from lifetime to lifetime and just need to be 'reawakened' to it :)

Reiki has made significant and necessary changes to my life. Prior to becoming attuned to Reiki, I had moderate anxiety issues and stress out the wazoo. The Reiki helped me to relax. It lightened the sensations from my stress and anxiety, which enabled me to make the required changes to remove the source(s) from my life.

I've cultivated the calm that Reiki brings me, and it is apparent to everyone around me. I love it, in stressful settings, everybody clamors to sit next to me because my calmness in tense situations is contagious.

I really had no expectations of Reiki when I first came to it. I still dont, it is what it is. I am constantly learning new and novel ways I can use Reiki in every aspect of my life. Also, my perspective on healing has not changed over the years, I am still just as discriminate as I ever was. Possibly moreso - but that could also be attributed to the crankiness that comes with age. ;)

Actually, the only expectation I had of Reiki was that it would open me up spiritually. I figured that would be the case for me, because I was being spiritually called to get the attunements. Afterwards, it was as though a veil had been lifted, and I was able to more clearly see Who was doing all that poking and prodding. And that, in and of itself, was probably the most life changing event that happened in the last four years.

Hi Taqai,

Namaste :)

Thanks for sharing your experience with Reiki.

You said 'my calmness in tense situations is contagious'. That is so true, I have found the effect to be like ripples in a pond :)

It has been so lovely to read how Reiki has affected people's lives in such positive ways.

It's so lovely how you and Fushella have rejuvenated our site......with wondrous words. Hubba hubba! Thank you!

I'm new to reiki. I've had sessions done to me and each teacher has told me to get Reiki into my hands because I'm a natural and could do alot of good. But I didn't feel the need at the time. So, I kept ignoring them and it. My intuition is uncanny and I never listened to it because it kind of scared me. But on the other hand, it interested me.
Over the past 8 months or so, I've been sick off and on. I see a holistic Dr. and I was going in weekly - sometimes very sick. His wife is a Reiki master and she suggested I get reiki in my hands to help myself. Again, I ignored her. 2 weeks ago I hit rock bottom - I ended up in the emergency room very sick. It finally hit me - I NEED Reiki in my hands! I signed up and was attuned to reiki 1 last weekend. I truly feel that I was meant to get sick and I was going to stay sick until I got reiki. It was a wakeup call and a push that I needed. I've been doing reiki on myself every night and I feel much better. I hope to get Reiki 2 in another month. I feel better physically better and spirtually better right now.
I'm going thru the 21 day cleanse and have a few little issues. Which I'm going to ask about in another post :)

Hi dolphin,

Thanks for sharing :) It's interesting to read how people find Reiki or as I like to think how Reiki finds us :) I'm glad that Reiki is helping you with your self healing, that is fantastic. Practising as much as you can will really help you, especially if you are considering going on to take your Reiki II quite quickly. You might like to look up the hatsurei-ho meditation that Dr Usui taught his Reiki students(if you don't already know it). It is a very useful meditation and great for focusing the Reiki energy. You can just google it if you're interested.

You've gone thru a lot, dolphin. So glad that you didn't give up on you nor Reiki. As others have said here before...it can change your whole life, if you're ready and willing. Welcome.

Otoharo!

The 21 day cleansing is a misnomer.
