Hi all. I did reiki level 1 and 2...and the teacher at one point started doing reiki on me, but they were physically rough and aggressive to my throat and back causing excruciating pain and didn't stop when I called out in pain and asked them to be gentle. It felt hateful and violent... but I'm so new so I wanted to ask? Is my gut feeling that that was extremely wrong correct, or is it a type of reiki I'm just not familiar with and need to open to? My soul, emotional body, and physical body wanted to escape them. Thank you for listening and any insight would be helpful. I've trier researching about it but couldn't find much. Thank you.

I received a distance Reiki session the other day and out of it came a suggestion from the archangels to utilize the lotus flower on my spiritual journey.

I am a Reiki 2 practitioner who works with the archangels and vocal sound healing; heading to take Reiki 3 early next year.

When I close my eyes, I can see every petal of the lotus flower in my 3rd eye.

My first thought was that this had to do with shadow work.

Came here for other’s experiences or knowledge.

Namaste.

Hi

I just got my reiki 1 attunement Friday and since my hands and sometimes feet have been tingling.

I am now doing my 21 days selfhealing. But i hqve a lot of questions still.

During the class we got attuned in 1 day, and we practices selfhealing with some handmovements, i asked how I turn on reiki and the master told me it goes automatically.

However, is there a way to stop it or activate it? I feel constant tingling and i dont know if i am giving everyone reiki energy that im touching.

I think im giving my partner reiki every day especially at night because we sleep holding each other.

I'm a 38m just starting to look into the metaphysical world. I'm so lost on what and where to start. It's been overwhelming with all the information out there along with so many different views. I was listening to a podcast on Reiki and I'm very interested. I found a person in my area that teaches holy fire Reiki over a weekend. I'm just not sure if this is something I should "jump" into. I pretty sure I won't just learn everything in one weekend and practice will be needed. Im worried it won't "work" on me yet if I haven't spirituality leveled up yet enough 😅. I'm wondering if Reiki is a good place to start or is it more of an advanced thing. Thank you any advice.

Hello, everyone! Happy Sunday :) I hope you're all well!

Enjoy the healing :)

I’ve always been a bit on the spiritual side but I was absolutely blown away by how effective the session was. I walked away feeling so much lighter and more like myself, after a long cry and talking about things I didn’t even know I was still holding onto. It was a huge release. I still can’t fully vocalize what was so effective about it, but it felt so warm and loving in comparison to clinical hospital treatments.

Hello I’m a new reiki practitioner and I have noticed something that happens when I practice where my hands double in feeling. So my hands will feel like that have flipped. As if I’m holding something from above (with my real hands) and below (energy hands). When this happens it feels like my hands are inside my body or the body of whoever I am working with. When I open my eyes visually it’s normal but it feels like my hands sink into their/my body. They almost get stuck because the energy doesn’t want me to move them.

Does this mean my reiki is getting stronger? How can I focus on improving this?

So about 4 years ago I started playing with energy in the body and long story short it drove me mad with telepathic contact with human and non human intelligences. The energy eventually dissipated and I returned to being a normal human being for the most part with a few added quirks. I gave up the whole energy business so I could return to normal but recently I've got the feeling that I lost a big part of myself by stopping. So I've been slowly testing the waters and moving energy within the body again and absorbing energy from the ambient atmosphere when walking outside.

I'm two days into doing this and last night around 5 am I began feeling a very high energy that feels tingly. It's almost like someone is beaming a high beam of energy into my heart area. I managed to push it down and out of my body towards the Earth through a cord. But the effects of this energy are what interest me as they kept me wide awake for hours past my normal bed time. It's like my awareness and focus was super charged. I didn't feel tired at all until I pushed this energy out of my body.

Now this is the same type of energy that I experienced four years ago when I went mad. I'm wondering if anyone can provide insight into the nature of this type of energy. Is it light or dark? High or low? Colour? And had anyone else experienced this as well?

Hello,

Is anyone interested in a joint Reiki for the election on Monday evening 7p central time? I can set up a Zoom

To help with depression. Thank you.

Hello everyone, it has been a few months since I first put this call out but things have settled and I should be able to do this every week from now on. I have roped the Reiki masters in from r/Reikishare to help with this, but I also would like to put out a call for all Reiki practitioners to assist with the humanitarian effort.

Every week when we do the Reiki shares, I also send healing to certain situations. But I want to do more. So, I'm going to set up a healing field to go to situations in need of healing (wars, earthquakes, climate change, etc). This healing field will last for a full week, so feel free to join in when you can.

For Level 1s, if you want to add your Reiki to this humanitarian Reiki effort, here are your instructions on how to join:

1. Pace yourself. Choose only one situation from the list below, doing only one at a time will ensure you can do more in the long run.
2. Write down your chosen situation on a piece of paper, this turns that paper into a proxy.
3. Place your hands over the written situation and ask Reiki to heal that situation.
4. If you start to feel sick from sending too much Reiki, stop immediately and do some self care and rest.

It's okay if you can only get to one situation. Do as much as you safely can without burning yourself out. If you can only do it for 5 mins, that's okay. 5 mins is better than nothing. Your contributions, no matter how small, are helpful :)

For level 2s if you want to add your Reiki to this field, I'll share my spin on a technique I learnt in my Traditional Usui level 2 class. It does not require a proxy. This is also a technique for setting up a healing field:

1. Do the Distance Symbol (personally, when I do this, I see the Distance Symbol turning into a bag, ready to hold and collect extra Reiki)
2. Add as many symbols as you are called to add, let the Distance Symbol-bag collect your added symbols
3. Tell Reiki where you want the healing to go. In this case, say, "Reiki, please add this healing to OtakuScientist's healing field to heal humanitarian crises."
4. Let the Distance Symbol do its thing, carry on with your day.

I am only one person and I cannot know every humanitarian crisis going on at the moment. So if you know of any humanitarian crises that I haven't addressed (I'm sure there are others), please comment them below and I'll ensure that healing gets to that situation.

So far, I've set the healing field to go to:

• the Ukraine war
• war in the Congo
• the war in Gaza
• climate change at large
• homelessness
• recent flooding in Spain
• Sudan
• Yemen
• Libya

As for the issue of permission, you can send Reiki to a general situation without requiring permission from people because it is healing the situation rather than the people themselves. But I also ask Reiki to go to people if their higher selves agree to receive the reiki.

A lot of Reiki masters already do this kind of thing, but I want to bring it to Reddit because I think more people will be able to join in this way. We can do more with more people and if I've learnt anything in doing Reiki, it's that when you work with one or more person for a healing, you can do so much more than you can on your own.

I cannot be the only one who feels helpless when watching humanitarian crises unfold. We collectively have an incredibly powerful healing tool at our disposal and I want to wield it for the good of all. I'm also open to other energy healing modalities being added to this healing, I will not be exclusive to Reiki when people are in need.

I will be starting this healing at the time of this post, so please help me. Thank you :)

Hey y’all, so I’ve been receiving some spiritual attacks lately. A lot of it has come through my heart, throat, third eye, and crown chakra. Mainly the projection of my third eye. (By projection I mean seeing a person project themselves through me.) I have also been hearing TOO MUCH. My clairaudience and possibly other clairs are out of control and it makes it very difficult to sleep and go about my day.

All that to say, I’m wondering if reiki is the pathway for me to go? I also want to mention that a few muscles/bones in my body tore and got broken so I’m wondering if that adds to me being susceptible to the spiritual attacks?

Thanks, A.

---Post Closed--Thank you and see you in the new year!

i was meditating this morning and

i’m a very feeling person and i’m in a meditative state most of the time (other times i get mad at car noises or curse the buildings blocking the sun)

finally weather’s nice enough to stay in water and i just love hugging my knees and going under water

yesterday i felt the deepest thing, but before i get to that let me also add that my heart is always burdened, it’s my heart i have the most problem with i think, well i don’t know but you get the point. i often feel like im drowning. i digress, yesterday underwater it was all going dark, yet it was the most bright darkness i’ve ever felt and i felt 3 or 4 pulses from my heart which was really really, really strong. like really strong. i felt like i was in my mother’s womb and then i ascended back to the surface and grasped for air like it was my first time in this here

today i woke up naturally at 5.30 am and decided to go and catch the sunrise, couldn’t resist, took a dive, felt all the cold parts of my body that needed warmth and then laid on the stand and i just put the warm sand all over my cold. i’ve stayed there for a while and after i got up i couldn’t help but notice the pattern i formed. it formed.

a lion and an owl

would appreciate it so much if any of you responds and assist me in digesting all this, if not no worries. tomorrow’s water will show me :)

much love to all

Hi everyone! Happy Halloween! I decided to give you guys a treat today and offer some free reiki this afternoon/evening for Halloween 👹( I have a few slots left)

So please message me or comment if interested in receiving.

If you want to apply to get free reiki from me weekly also please send me a message and we’ll talk, otherwise I can send you reiki one time if that’s all you want either tonight or schedule another time if the slots fill up tonight. Thank you and happy Halloween everyone 👹

Hi I’ve been practicing reiki for a couple years now and sometimes when I’m on the internet or just randomly ill get the urge to send someone reiki that I see on tik tok or a news story I hear about, or maybe just someone on the street I feel needs it. But my question is, is that okay? Sometimes I feel guilty because I didn’t even ask I just sent it to them. I always cord cut afterwards but idk sometimes it feels right but just now when I went to do it I felt maybe it was unwanted so I stopped. But I was wondering what others who practiced thought.

I wish more people would believe in Reiki and energy work in general. Seeing so many changes in my client's mental, physical and spiritual well-being without even intending to originally work on those specific issues, pushes me further and makes me so grateful to have those gifts to share with the world. It's super hard to stay hopeful and persistent if you intend to work only in this field but if you needed encouragement, this is it :D I needed one from a friend today so wanted to share it further haha we can do this! <3

It's not that I don't like to smile, I'm just more of a middle of the road type. Is there an emotion associated with the crown chakra that can raise my vibration without having to smile all day?

Has anyone ever sent Reiki to multiple people or locations at once? I’d like to but I’m unsure of the best way to do that. I’m afraid of mixing everyone’s energy lol. Curious if the best way would be to write names on paper and place in the center of a crystal grid or below. I’m open to all suggestions! Thanks in advance!

Now that cold weather is approaching, I want to get a warming fleece table cover. I’ve had a few sessions on the table where the practitioner used one, it felt heavenly. I checked Amazon and some of the bad reviews of the many brands have me overwhelmed with choosing one! What brand do you recommend that you and your clients like?

When I have body aches I will perform reiki on myself and it helps and eases the pain. This is not true when I have headaches or migraines, despite my best efforts. Is there a reason reiki won't work on my headaches?

I was attuned recently and had my first opportunity to practice on someone yesterday. Afterwards, she told me that she felt the pain in her knee rise up and out, and that she thought it went into my hand. Do you think that's what really occurs? Does it really go into your hand? Or is that just her visualization? (BTW- I was elated to get her positive feedback!)

Is this normal? At first I feel calm and happy and bliss around day 3-4 I start feeling tired I sleep like 13 hour per day is this normal ?? Need your advice and thank you

Hello lovely people. I am casting around here, but I think this sub might be able to help. I am going through a phase of feeling totally "stuck". I'm procrastinating, I've not been self-healing. I'm not meditating. I've dropped my previous exercise routine. I'm tired all the time.

I don't think it's anything medical. I don't think it's anything to do with my mental health (I'm a psychotherapist, and I've really given a lot of consideration to the 'why' of this stuckness (just at I would with my clients) but I genuinely can't come up with anything - I'm happy, calm, things are generally going well in my life).

It really feels like some sort of blockage has occurred. I have had my level 2 attunements, and was working towards completing my case studies in order to complete my certification, but every time I arrange a reiki session, I just feel blocked. It's almost as if I'm a character in a video game, and the person playing me doesn't want to complete the mission! I really want to complete it. I really want to start practicing professionally, but the fact that I can't seem to get it together enough to do a bit of yoga and self heal every day is puzzling to me.

Does anyone else have experience of this? Or any suggestions of how to lift this feeling?

Any input greatly appreciated 🙏

Hello, I anounced the same a few weeks ago and got a good return, so increasing the number of people this time. Just respond and I will DM you, to align on timing. If time permits I may take more than 6, but not guaranteed, just answer to the post. Thanks!

Ps.: no need to share any personal info

I drive my mom to her ketamine therapy appointments, she gone about 2x a week for the past 3 weeks.

I met her spiritual guide therapist at her first appointment, idk what it was about him but I instantly felt this insane magnetic pull towards him. An energetic pull I have NEVER felt towards anyone, 100x over.

I talked to him the first time for a few minutes, felt two things…

1. He has beautiful genuine energy that you can just feel how pure his heart & intentions are.

2. I felt like he could see & feel everything about me, my past, my present & my future. See ME all of me in less than a second. Feels like being naked having to run a mile alone while 100,000 people watch, so vulnerable.

Every time I have seen him since I have felt the exact same thing. I am a sapiosexual so I never get butterflies over an attractive human or feel anything without talking to someone first. I am also not a flirt I’m very awkward.

My mom ended up telling me he has a partner. Initially, I thought the magnetic pull would immediately drop, I am in no way attracted to people in relationships. (Helps being sapiosexual 🤣)

However, I still can’t stop thinking about him. I have been working on connecting within myself on why I am so drawn to this stranger, what are my intentions, what is missing in my life that my subconscious thinks he could fulfill? Is it sexual, spiritual, etc?

Today I talked to him for a little bit after my mom’s session about medicine journeys, he mentioned he does private guided trips and I should do one with him.

Can I have this strong of a pull to someone without it being sexual or intimate? Could the universe have brought us together for spirituality & friendship?

I can’t get him out of my head since the day I have met him, it’s seriously pathetic because I am a grown ass woman. I have tried everything to connect with myself for the answer on my intentions, I can’t find it. Which makes me think my intentions are not in a good place knowing he has a partner and there is no way it would be appropriate to do a private medicine journey.

❤️❤️❤️

I received my first level attunement several months ago. I was looking forward to it; I'd read so many accounts of the feelings generated by being attuned. But I felt nothing. I decided that the attunement was performed, and people's personal reactions are all different, so I went ahead with the self-healings and giving Reiki to my family and friends.

But I still feel almost nothing when I give someone Reiki. My hands get warm sometimes, and sometimes I feel very very faint tingling, but nothing else. The people who have volunteered to receive Reiki always tell me that it was "relaxing; I almost fell asleep." My husband who suffers from terrible chronic pain tells me that he feels loved, and cared for. These things are all good, of course, but I was hoping that I'd start feeling the energy, or that the people I worked on would report feeling tingling, or pain reduction, or something other than wanting to sleep. Am I doing something wrong?

So I was healing in my own way understanding the essence of each symbol every time I healed myself.I was not looking for light etc but tried feeling energy in my hands.It started with slight tingles then tingles on especially left part of body, then tingles all over the body.All this even when am not doing self healing. Today it was so pronounced that I felt like feathers or small insects crawling which makes me touch the part of the body or slight itch( hopefully for now).Am sure all this is short term.My interpretation is that the body is healing.i find it quite fascinating hence mentioned it.
