Reiki for discussion, sharing experiences, emotional support, distance treatments...

[Lavandula Canadensis]

Hello to all BT members who are Reiki practicioners/masters interested in this new thread on Reiki for discussion, sharing experiences, emotional support, distance treatments...

This wonderful idea popped into my mind today...

Reiki is really helping me, self-Reiki and distance Reiki, mainly for managing anxiety… but for other things too... along with other complementary and alternative medicines… and I thought it would be interesting to share this with other BT members who might have the same interest and experience with Reiki… as I have seen that some members mentioned Reiki in some posts...

I am a Reiki practitioner, level 2, since 1995, and I keep myself posted with books, magazines, and daily self-Reiki treatments, plus distance Reiki treatments to people who wants some.

This thread would ideally not be intended for the skeptical or the critical… I would suggest that one starts another thread if they have any questions or comments of this type… and one of us, BT members reiki practitioners/masters, will certainly be glad to reply to anything deserving attention…

So, if anyone is interested in elaborating more... discussing, giving emotional support to each other,
sharing experiences and sending distance Reiki treatments... this would the thread for it…
please feel free to open your heart and your hands to the universal energy of Reiki... I will be glad to meet you here…

Distance Reiki to all interested ((( :) )))

Have a wonderful day !!!

Namaste, Lavandula

thank you for the beautiful bouquet, I love lavender!
Reiki is very interesting to me, although the only time I have ever experienced it was in labor, so I don't really remember! The practitioner was my midwife and said it's definitely a right-time right-place type of thing, and everyone is different.
I have heard that it can be helpful to those who struggle with chronic pain, and this is very intriguing.

brainandspinalcord,

good morning, and welcome on this thread :)

i'm glad to hear from someone who experienced hands-on reiki... on yourself with your child...

what is really amazing about reiki is that probably the only thing you will ever feel is the extraordinary relaxing mode it will bring you in, most of the time, if the practicioner is relaxed and all there in here and now with you... even when nobody speaks... but you will most likely "feel" some results eventually...

the healing process is a natural process that will take place by itself when you give it a chance... like when you cut or burn yourself... after you clean the injured part, you may put some ointment on it to help reduce the pain, then you protect the area with a bandaid... then the healing process occurs naturally by itself...

so, no matter if you're dealing w a trauma, anxiety, indigestion or pain... reiki will very probably help your system, body and spirit, gradually calm down enough for the symptoms to slowly go away, sometimes partially, sometimes totally...

if you don't feel anything after a few treatments (3-7), then, try another practicioner or another kind of therapy...

reiki is a wonderful tool, like any other tool... once you find one that you prefer to work with, the job gets done in a more pleasant way...

sometimes... just adding some flowers into your environment, or caressing a cat, will sooth your spirit enough for your body's discomfort or pain to diminish quite a bit...

how the brain works is still a mystery to most worldwide brain specialists...

buddhists monks, including the Dalai-Lama, are participating into brain research in the US and in Canada... brain scans, eeg's and mri's are witnessing the monks while meditating... there are buddhists meditation techniques to help coping with pain (chronic, traumas & torture)... they're working siminarly to a combination of self-hypnosis w visualisation and meditation... that's the kind of tools combinations i'm using... i don't take any drugs, even when i have TN or sciatica for days and days... at 10/10...

hands-on self-reiki is helping me keep my concentration on myself, in the here and now... and once you learned how to do it, you don't have to pay someone anymore to do it for you... just like learning how to do your own cooking at home...

although reiki was 'rediscovered' in Japan by a buddhist monk in the early last century, it is an ancient art of healing that goes back to at least 4000 years ago in the Himmalayas...

Have a wonderful day!!!

Namaste, Lavandula
