Reiki Energy Healing

I began studying and learning about alternative methods of healing back in the early 1990s. One modality I have always come back to is energy healing, specifically Reiki. I obtained my first and second degree levels in 1993. Over the following 5 years I used Reiki frequently within my nursing practice. Sometimes deliberately, but often times it was just an integral part of how I practised and not something I actively thought about.

In 1998 after much consideration I studied and obtained the Master level in Reiki. Beyond being able to channel a greater flow of energy for healing, I am able to teach others. I have taught several people, including my husband and my oldest son and a few close friends. My younger sons have shown an interest in energy healing at a young age and I have attuned the older to Reiki 1. When my youngest, Thing 2, is older I plan on teaching him as well as he is showing a natural affinity towards healing.

I own and operate Kolnza Mobile Reiki, a mobile Reiki service offering Reiki in the home and in the corporate setting.

Using Reiki in My Life

It's not just for healing

Since learning Reiki and becoming a Reiki Master I have incorporated the use of Reiki into many parts of my life.

I use it while cooking.

A touch of Reiki energy into the cooking pot, I think, just makes everything taste that little bit nicer and helps to make sure that what I give my family is the best for them I can provide.

I use it in spellcasting

I carve the symbols onto candles or write them on parchment as part of a spell. I will also charge a symbol in my mind then send it through my hand into a spell as I am creating it.

I use the Master's symbol to build up energy within myself to be released when a spell is cast.

I use it with the Law of Attraction

The Reiki Principles are very much in line with the tenets of the Law of Attraction.

I use it for sleep

If I am having trouble sleeping, I use Reiki to help me relax enough to sleep.

Years ago, when I worked night shift, I used Reiki a lot to condense several hours sleep into the 1 or 2 hours I actually had available for sleeping on some days. I wouldn't recommend this for long-term, but as a one-off it was very helpful.

Reiki and the Family

MUMMY!

My husband and I are both Reiki Masters. We have a nearly tangible connection of energy between us. Useful because he has to travel a lot on his job and we can be apart from a few days to several weeks depending on where he is going and what work needs to be done. If either of us needs a boost, we know we can draw upon the other.

My two younger sons have Autistic Spectrum disorder, provided I can be subtle about it, Reiki energy is very helpful in calming them down when they is feeling anxious and stressed.

One son has very strong natural shields and if I try to push through them forcefully, he only puts them up stronger. His father has the strength to push through those shields if need be, but I have to take a more round about approach.

Since I can't send it to him through touching him with my hands most times, I have learned to send it through my entire body. By spreading the energy flow over a larger surface area, I am able to get it in through his barriers.

I once was able to send it via the ethereal umbilical connection he had with me. Unfortunately, as he grows older, that connection has naturally grown weaker.

When one of the boys gets hurt, I will use Reiki to draw the "ouch" out and into my hand. They then get to blow it away. No more hurt. We have heard the youngest using this same technique when he is alone.

Sounds interesting.

How do you use Reiki in your own life?

    I mostly use Reiki for spot-healing and pain management. I learned Reiki in hopes that it would help me with my anxiety issues -- although ironically, that's the one area where the Reiki doesn't seem to help me much. Maybe your lenses will give me some new techniques to try!

    I would suggest adding the Sei He Ki symbol to your self-treating sessions. I've a lens specifically on the symbol which should help you with it.

    Wow -- thanks for the tip! :-) I'll definitely read up on it.
