meditation/reiki

[alley-oops]

Does anybody here use reiki?  I use reiki and meditation to help with all the subtle symptoms of this invasion.  
I love reiki soooo much, I hope others can benifit from this treatment. I spent so much time searching the web for other heppers I can't believe it took me so long to find this sight.

 ;  Hi, Yes, I'm a Reiki II, I find it helps VERY much w/the liver pain and such. I'm also going thru a detox as I write this from the 2nd Attunment of the #II. I can feel the release of toxins,taste and smell it....Yukkyy!!!, But I welcome this as it brings me Joy in Knowing that it helps me. When I had my liver Biopsy, my Husband used it to control my pain, it worked like a charm!!!! I was sold from then on!!!That was in Jan. of this year. Reiki has blessed me in many ways. It's good to know that there are other Heppers who use this non evasive method of healing. Also the meditations help center me. Take care!!!    Phoenix

Hey Phoenix,
I wanted to congradulate you on getting your 2nd degree.  It made such a huge difference to me, I like being able to use the distance healing symbol when someone I know needs a healing but isn't close.(physically)  I even use it when my husband is in the next room  and in a grumpy mood.    
I hope your detoxing is gentle, pound back that water,sweetheart.  Talk to you again.

   Hi Alley, Yup, it's a humbling and worth while experience. I feel very honored to be a double II. My 2nd attunment was even more so. I love the fact that I can have the Uni.Healing Energies work through me for distance work. As I have been surounded by family members passing on from diff. forms of Cancer. I need to concentrate more on myself though. I've been having some strange things going on w/my brain lately. I've been spelling words wrong ,I've never had this problem before. Plus the fact that my Index finger  joint feels like Glass is rubing in it as if it's got gout. Guess I need to hit the Beet juice more. Well, Hope to here from ya, It's taken me a while to write this as I've had to correct my spelling a lot.  SEEEEYYYYAAAA!!!   Phonenix

[alley-oops]

Hi again, Phoenix,
Please don't correct spelling on my behalf, I am dyslexic as are half my family and I have some good friends on a dyslexic message board and we all spell poorly, so I'm good at figuring out intention.
I'm so sorry that you are dealing with loss in your family. I also have lost some people that I love and the grief is unbearable.  My beautiful brother died two years ago from epilepsy and my heart is forever broken.  It was so unexpected I'll never be the same.  Then a little 12 year old girl that I knew all her life was killed in a car accident.  Any how it's hard to be positive with so much hard stuff but I must.
I found the Reiki has helped connect me with the  spirituality that I need to carry on.  
Oh my son wants the computer so I got to go.
Seee ya soon sweetheart.

Hi
Im A Reiki Master and i can send people distant healing if they need it, so please ask.
Meditation is an extremely powerful healing tool, if you would like i can post some self healing meditations. People have been cured and improved greatly by using meditation and deep slow breathing, visulisation and intent.
I might post my story as it totally proves what self healing can do.
Love and light

Hi guys...... I've mentioned that I started doing Reiki a few times elsewhere...... but I had forgotten that this thread existed.  I've been doing it about a half year.  The changes are subtle.......what change does one see?  How can one measure their success?  If I change my diet.... or took up an major physical excercise program one could see physical change.....weight change.....change in fat and muscle......or blood preasure.  For me doing Reiki seems more like the type of changes that one cannot measure but can feel.  If I were to ask; how can you prove that having a religion....or working a 12 step program works.....prove it...... it would be hard to do....yet I have faith that they do work in many ways.....yet remain resistant to being "proven".

         For me.....it is rather like diet...... we can eat whatever what we want....some of it is bad for us ....like cookies, alcohol, or fried foods.  If we fill ourselves up with as much good food as we can..... there is less room for the "bad" stuff.  If I fill up on raw vegatables..... I am just less likely to start in on the cookies.  If I quench my thirst with green tea......or good water......I am far less likely to buy a pepsi cause I'm thirsty.  
         And so it goes with what we think..... and the actions which we take.  What I have gotten from Reiki is a stronger sense of connectedness.  It is a means which I am (slowly...very slowly LOL) learning to take a bit more time for myself, and that when "recharged" I have more of myself that I can give to others.  I also think that it encourages me to become more aware...or self-conscious in a good way  (am I working the right vocation, am I stressing and why?......etc)
         On a very basic level....when we perform Reiki.....we are in effect repeating the mantra......I am getting better....I am being healed.  I happen to believe that these type of affirmations can work...... just as many believe in the power of prayer.  I also believe that there is power in negative affirmations.... (I'm dumb, I'll never succeed, no one likes me, I'm getting sicker.....)  
         I like the practice....... It is just one more positive thing that I do for myself....like diet.... or excercise.

Best,
Willy

It's interesting that this thread has resurfaced as I have just begun to checkout a few Reiki sites. Gotta say, at this point that the info is a bit overwhelming...kind of like starting to research HCV after dx. Anyone know of a good site for a novice?

BTW, Willy, I loved your food analogy. That is SO true!!

[alley-oops]

I am a mod on a very nice(if I do say so myself) Reiki site.  It is also a Yabba forum (like this one) and we have a great group of people that send distant healing and free attunements for those interested in pursuing this for their healing.  Please feel free to put in a request for distance healing, as we must have permission to send.
Thanks Tessa for restarting this thread.

By the way, Everyone that wants to, can go to that site and request healing energy to come to them.

Reiki can't hurt  so I encourage all heppers to add this free gift to your arsenal of healing.

Reiki is allowing us to channel energy, its not a mantra or affirmation, it is pure energy that we can call in from the Universe to heal. I can see energy and feel it. If you hold your hands together in prayer position and slowly move them open to about 10 inches apart you can feel a tingling or prickling in the palms of your hands, this is the energy centre and you can feel the energy if you slowly move your hands away and together like invisible elastic. The more you work with energy the stronger your ability gets. If you want to learn and find a site where they charge a lot, dont pay they cant teach you any more than someone that dosent charge so much, you need an attunement and thats about it.
I have started a beautiful meditation called hamsa ( means white swan which is an ancient symbol of spirtuality and purity) breathe in (ham) and breathe out (so) breathing through the nostrils, do this 108 times every morning, it awakens your higher self and you find your wings to your personal spirituality, i adore this and feel incredible after doing this only a few times.
In Love and Spirit
