Wish me luck friends. I’m teaching reiki over the next couple of weekends

Reiki is a Japanese healing technique that involves channeling universal life force energy into a person’s body to promote relaxation, reduce stress, and enhance the body’s natural healing abilities. It can also balance your chakras. When I perform Reiki, I place my hands just above the client’s body as a conduit for the reiki energy to flow. The energy is travels to areas of the body that need healing and balance. People feel deeply relaxed (and most fall asleep when I do it), refreshed, and rejuvenated after a session.

I have given a couple of workshops at my local hospital about it as the Staff have been trying to integrate Reiki into the hospitals to give it to patients as it helps with healing and needed someone to come talk about it

@HumanEarth

I was always interested in that kind stuff, but I never knew what it was called.

That stuff is some bad ass stuff right there

I'm sure you're going to be Grrrrreat as Tony The Tiger would say

@HumanEarth the first time I had it, I had really bad sciatica pain and I was taking about eight Tylenol’s every night just to get a good night sleep. I had my first session and I have never had a sciatica pain since. so after that, I decided I need to learn how to do it.

definitely should get someone to give you a session in person. Sometimes I give group sessions to members here, but it’s you know by distance it’s not the same as getting an in person session done so if you ever want me to add you to my list of people, I send Reiki to a few people here a couple of times a month. If you want to be included to let me know and I will include you

I heard some hands on healing thing that could help with my epilepsy. Even on medicine I still have seizures

I wonder if this what I read in a book

I'll look into it and see what I can find out locally first and get back to you

@HumanEarth it could possibly help with that. Find a good practitioner that you can go to in person.

I will look into this

Hey @Jenny1234 how do tell a fake from the real deal?

@HumanEarth good question ! Find someone on the International Association of Reiki Practitioners. All of us on there are legit

Professionals not practitioners

https://iarp.org/

@HumanEarth you have to show your certification and lineage here to join

The lineage is what connects you to the original practitioner that spread it worldwide

Closest to me is 350 miles away

@HumanEarth oh wow!

OK, so maybe there are some in your area that are just not registered or just don’t renew their membership because you do have to pay a few hundred dollars every year to be on that website

So what I would do is Google Reiki practitioners in your area and then just message them and tell them that you are interested in getting a session and ask what their training was and their lineage. I can’t see any Reiki practitioner not being OK with providing that information.

@HumanEarth also check out the reviews on their websites

I'll do all that

@HumanEarth if you get a message back and they tell you what their training and lineage is, send me a message and I’ll look it up to make sure it’s legit

I'll will for sure.
