Last week, as I greeted a new client to Mintaka Reiki in Sandbach, I could tell straight away that he felt very nervous, and was clearly apprehensive about what he’d been signed up to!
Now, I always try my best to put everyone at ease when they come to The Cabin, and I like to think I usually succeed, but this one chap… well, it took just a little bit longer to calm his nerves, and in this week’s Blog I explain how his first Reiki Treatment went.
I can honestly say it was a privilege to meet him. And I’m very grateful that he agreed to carve out some time for himself and accept his wife’s gift of a Reiki Treatment. Because he really did need some time to dedicate entirely to his own well-being.
For anyone who doesn’t know, Reiki is a safe, natural, and simple healing technique, centred on relaxation and stress relief, which in turn helps to heal the body, mind and spirit. It’s based on the belief that an unseen life force energy flows through us all, affecting both our physical and emotional health. During Reiki sessions, practitioners like me use hands-on techniques to transfer energy to a client, promoting healing and balance.
Sadly, so many people don’t give themselves that same space. They allow their nerves about trying something new to get the better of them (not that energy healing is a new therapy, it’s been around for thousands of years). But people just soldier on, putting everyone else’s needs before their own, until finally they break under the strain.
Time spent with Reiki, however, is time dedicated to a re-set. And when life starts to overwhelm us, we all need one of those every now and now.
I’m pleased to report that, by the end of our Reiki time together, all my client’s nerves had gone, and there was nothing but positive energy in the room.
He admitted he hadn’t felt so relaxed in years – and he definitely didn’t want to get off the treatment bed. Result!
So, if you’re worried about taking that first step and exploring Reiki for yourself, I hope you’ll feel a little less nervous after reading this. It really is such an uplifting experience, and I’d love you to experience it, too.
Don’t be nervous – just press the button, I promise you won’t regret it.
