Distance Reiki – As a Recipient!

Well I finally experienced distance Reiki for the first time! My Reiki teacher was generous enough to send me a short session of distance Reiki tonight, even though she was tired. I was really anxious to feel what it is like to experience a distance Reiki treatment, because I have been sending distance Reiki on […]

Tingly Fingers

Last night I went to my Reiki teacher’s house. I was there to give her hands-on Reiki, of which I have seriously less experience now than distance, and to get her feedback. I was hoping to get more comfortable with the hands-on method, and get some guidance about what sensations I am looking for when […]

Is it Better to be Helpful or Cautious?

Original post: 12-18-07 So I was teaching Sunday School on Sunday, and we had some low attendance. My second period 6th grade class had all of 4 students present. Kind of nice, really. Anyway, I taught my lesson as planned, and was close to the end. In the last 10 minutes, one of the students, […]

A Little Freaky —But in a Good Way

Original post Wed, 12/12/2007 – 16:40. I’ve been working hard on my distance Reiki practicing, and doing hands-on Reiki for my family. My 3 year-old son asks for Reiki if he bumps his head or has a bad dream, my 8 year-old daughter had a bad dream last night, and I sent her distance Reiki […]

Reiki Experiences – The Journey Continues

Original post submitted Thu, 12/06/2007 – 21:58. I sent Reiki last night to a friend who has been going through a hard time. After the experience with my mom, who didn’t feel a second of the intense Reiki I sent her (though she felt it all the first time), I was feeling a little nervous, […]

Reiki Setback?

Original post on Wed, 12/05/2007 I talked to my mom last night while I was preparing dinner (frying latkes takes FOREVER!!)…anyway, she had a colonoscopy yesterday and I offered to send her distance Reiki at 10 p.m. and she accepted. So at 10 p.m. I did my thing, dim lights, music, symbols, concentration, intent, scanning, […]

Reiki II – Distance Reiki is Real

Originally posted 12/4/07 I want to thank a friend from my previous blog for letting me practice my newfound ability on her! Even though she lives in Chicago somewhere, and I’m miles and miles away in Cleveland, Ohio, we had a very positive experience last night! I dimmed the lights, put on my soothing inspiring […]

Practicing Distance Reiki –Feedback was received

Original post 12-4-07 I received feedback from my friend who I sent distance Reiki last night. She really felt the energy I was sending. She didn’t report feeling it at her throat, but the other places I sent it coordinated with her description of her experience. She was gracious and grateful, and felt very positively […]

Practicing Distance Reiki

Original post 12-3-07 I sent distance Reiki to a friend last night. I’m still waiting for her feedback, but as I mentally “scanned” her to assess where she needed the energy the most, my hands became very warm, from the fingertips to elbows, as I pictured her throat chakra. She is a singer, and if […]

Reiki II – How I got here

Originally posted 11-29-07 I’ve recently started training in Reiki practice. Being a spritually skeptical person, I started with more the desire for Reiki to be real than the belief in its validity. I’ve really had a kind of epiphany. My teacher is a friend and Reiki Master. She is very sensitive and amazing. Her hands […]
