GETTING RESULTS
WITH REIKI UNCONDITIONALLY
by
Laurelle Shanti Gaia
When we learn to practice Reiki fearlessly,
trust it completely, and step out of the way
by releasing all attachment to outcome,
we open the door for miracles . . .
we can do nothing wrong.
This is unconditional Reiki.
Many are
inspired by our Reiki stories, while
others ask, "Why don't I get results with Reiki
like the
people in your stories? What am I doing wrong?"
Very often these answers can be found by reviewing
three core issues of healing:
-
Fear
-
Trust
-
Release
Fear can
enter into our sessions in many ways.
We can fear that we are doing something wrong,
that the client doesn’t feel anything, that our
hands are
not warm enough, or simply that it may not work.
The first step in healing these fears requires
remembering
that Reiki is spiritually guided life force
energy.
It is infinite wisdom and healing love that knows
exactly what the recipient needs.
Because Reiki's infinite wisdom, activates the
recipient's inner healing power . . .it can never cause harm.
The
only "rule" with Reiki is to "Let it Be"
and know that it is perfect.
I am very
blessed that I was taught me that Reiki can never
cause harm before I was told of the other "Reiki
Rules".
After I had become a completely trusting Reiki
practitioner,
I was told to never Reiki a broken bone before it
has been set because it might heal incorrectly,
and to never Reiki a burn because the heat will
make it worse. I am thankful
I was not warned of these things before I had the opportunity to hold my Reiki hands around my
friend’s broken ankle (she refused emergency room
treatment) and saw the bone set before my eyes. I
am thankful that when
I burned my hand on a 450 degree pan handle,
I hadn't yet been told that Reiki shouldn't be
used,
because I found immediate relief from the cooling
effect
Reiki had on my blistered hand, which
completely healed in hours .
You see, I was fearless, and completely trusting
when
I opened for Reiki to flow through, and then I
just let it be.
If you truly believe that Reiki is spiritually
guided life force energy, which can only be used
for the highest good of all concerned, then you
can set your fears and your ego aside
and channel Reiki in its purest form.
This makes the next steps easy, trust and release.
Trust Reiki to know what's best and to do
it.
Know that this is done and
give thanks for the blessings.
The only thing left to do is wait to see
how the healing manifests.
Let me
give you an example of a client that Reiki brought
to my door recently, Debra. She came to me knowing
nothing of Reiki, all she knew was she had been
guided
to my door. She had been diagnosed with type 3
breast cancer, and a few weeks earlier had a
mastectomy. There are many stories within her
case,
but let's focus now on non attachment to outcome.
Debra is undergoing chemotherapy for four months
prior to a bone marrow transplant, which she has
been told is her only chance for survival.
We have been giving her Reiki to strengthen her,
and to neutralize side effects of chemotherapy,
while maximizing
its benefits. She asked me to include in my prayer
that
she not lose her hair. I told her that I couldn’t
do this.
I said "I know Reiki will minimize the side
effects, but I can’t limit our potential by asking
for this specifically."
Our prayer was that Reiki help the perfect healing
take place for the highest good of all concerned,
and that God's Will be done through us.
Debra did so well with her first round of
chemotherapy,
she found herself sending Reiki to the other
patients
on her floor, because they were having a much
more difficult time than she.
Debra lost her hair, but the lady who sold her a
wig,
referred her to a friend who knows a lot about her
type of cancer. This friend referred her to a
special program at a
hospital out of state, that has a much higher
success rate
than the hospital she had planned to attend. The
new
hospital encourages family involvement, and her
doctor
even encouraged her to continue with Reiki.
I know, with every atom of my being, Reiki's
infinite
wisdom chose for her to lose her hair, so this
connection could be made. Debra is just one
example of how wise Reiki truly is.
Healing is
different than curing.
Reiki produces beautiful
results, we only need to be open to the many forms
it takes.
I have been working for several months with a
woman who
has fibromyalgia. Because of her chronic pain,
she has learned to suppress many of her feelings.
When she is on the Reiki table she rarely "feels"
anything happening. However, she processes quite a
bit in her
dream state after Reiki treatments, and is aware
that
she feels better hours, or days later. Her
treatment is
requiring deeply-seated fears and attitudes to be
changed,
and she is able to process these changes only
gradually. However, Reiki is healing her a little
at a time and I have absolute faith that she is
healing in the most perfect way.
Reiki helped my grandmother leave this plane when
her 92 year old body was ready to release her
spirit.
However, this did not happen until Reiki
communicated
what needed to be done. This special woman was in
a self-imposed coma, after consciously choosing to
die. She remained comatose for weeks, with only
fluids to sustain her. I sat by her bed day after
day, administering Reiki. Then one magnificent
day, Reiki began to speak to me and gave me words
to pray for her. She had some unfinished business,
Reiki told me why she was hanging on, and Reiki
delivered a beautiful prayer from my lips.
As soon as the prayer was finished, my grandmother
opened her eyes, looked right into mine, and said
"Who are all those people with the red candles?"
Reiki replied...."Those are the angels who have
come to
take you back to Jesus." She closed her eyes,
sighed, and
the first wisps of life force began to leave her
body. She left
this life in peace....thanks to Reiki, the love of
God.
This was not a cure, but a true healing.
As Reiki practitioners we think of the energy as
unconditional love. To produce the best possible
results
we must also unconditionally love Reiki. By
allowing it to
flow in its purest form and completely trusting it
to do what’s best, we truly serve in the highest
possible way as
instruments of peace and healing.
