My experience being involved in Murray River reiki, participating in the meditation groups and in level one reiki training.
Firstly, my experience with my recent reiki training in “Usui Reiki Ryoho - The Traditional Japanese Usui Reiki Method”, has expanded my personal view and experience of meditation and enhanced the benefit of all my spiritual practices. I had not received reiki previously nor was I too interested, a sceptic with the culture I had been around, though with such a profound and quick shift appearing both internally and throughout my habitual patterns, I have deeply appreciated the effects and can now speak highly of its reality!
Most prominently WILLPOWER. Determination and diligence has exponentially increased in the fortnight proceeding the training and I know this effect will last if I choose to continue on this path of practice.
I do, I choose to welcome reiki as a lifestyle, one to which I sit in a place of service, by allowing reiki to flow through my channel I allow myself to receive the energy I need to participate in life the way I aspire to.
And for this, I have Melanie to thank. As so courageous she has been to take on reiki without hesitation and full confidence to share what she has found with others. Melanine’ s teaching ability is comfortable and easy to comprehend, at no point have I felt like things have been inadequately described nor have I been rushed in my learning process. Even when emotions, overwhelm and confrontation arose in me as my own inner battles appeared, Mel held the space and comforted the insecurities in me.
I really do feel it appropriate for anyone interested in spiritual development to explore what reiki may offer them.
In respect to Melanie's lineage, experience through life and personal journey, she is well adept in teaching both those new to spiritual ideas while also being wise in ways to expand veterans in the field.
Thank you is an understatement,
gratitude for my journey here.
