Daily opportunities to learn

I can’t get enough of this stuff. I’m seeking out opportunities to practice Reiki every single day and I am never, never disappointed.

A few days ago I brought an abutilon that had been left out over the recent cold nights into the house, with shrivelled leaves and looking very sorry for itself. Within hours of a (very quick) Reiki session it had perked up. Three days down the line, and I have never seen it looking so vigorous and healthy.  I know the sceptics amongst you will say it’s just because it’s been brought into the warmth, but I brought it in in a similar condition last year and it took weeks to recover.

I used it, again in a very brief session, on my horse who had rubbed his chin raw with a new headcollar.  Before the treatment he had a large raw patch that was bleeding and it looked like it would take several days to start to heal. By the following morning it had completely scabbed over and was hardly noticeable.

I went into the forest with my dog and put my arms around a tree. There, I’ve said it. I actually hugged a tree, not because it needed healing, because I wanted to know whether I could feel its energy. And do you know what? I could. And not only could I feel its energy but I also immediately felt more grounded myself.

I practised on my friend, a quick session fitted in between a lovely lunch and the hectic life that goes with having children. She said that she immediately sensed the energy and described it as the same sensation as squeezing a blocked tube of toothpaste.  She said it felt like something was squeezing the energy and then all of a sudden it became unblocked and shot right through her body.  She also had the sensation, long after I’d removed my hands from her back, that my hands and the warmth were still present.  A couple of years ago she had a benign tumour removed from behind her ear as it was pushing against her brain. I didn’t know which side had been operated on, but instinctively knew which side had been affected by the operation.  She is still unable to move her right eyebrow, it remains paralysed, but my instincts tell me that a few sessions of Reiki could make a huge difference. Before the session I had also been able to see a ribbon of royal blue all around the top half of her body, very clearly, the first time I have seen something similar without concentrating to do so.

I can watch telly with one daughter and my hands will automatically start to vibrate and I feel drawn to ease the back she has tweaked whilst out riding. Or snuggle up in bed next to the other and feel her drop off to sleep with my hands on the wrist that she broke earlier in the summer that has been throbbing all evening. To be able to pass on this love and help people to self-heal is truly the most amazing gift I could ever have been given.
