Reiki for me

Reiki can find you at any time or place and, on Wednesday night, Reiki found me, at the Pitcher & Piano in Liverpool Street…

Some people might find it slightly odd if a stranger in a bar asked them to hold out their hand and receive some healing, but as a Reiki Practitioner, I was quite open to the idea.

And it was a wonderful and unusual experience. I’ve never actually been to a salon for a Reiki treatment myself, but I’d very much like to in the near future. I of course give myself Reiki treatments, but I found that it was more powerful with someone else giving the healing.

The lady told me she sensed I needed the healing and asked me to put my hand on top of hers. She felt that I was upset and told me to relax and absorb the energy. And so I did. It was amazing, it was as if I could feel the energy travelling up my arm and throughout my body.

As always with Reiki, it was an emotional experience, and it didn’t take the tears long to start rolling. But I find that this means the energy is working. Emotions need to be released, and Reiki is the perfect way to do this.

But the most powerful part of the whole experience was when the lady put her hand at the back of my neck, it was unbelievable. My body felt so tingly and I was extremely relaxed. I knew what she meant when she said I needed some healing.

For the rest of the evening I felt so tingly and calm. It was a lovely. I can’t wait for my next Reiki treatment…
