How does one feel after receiving a Reiki treatment?
It varies as much as we vary from one another. We receive as uniquely as we are. Reiki energy is passed onto you whether you can feel a difference or not. Typically, the more you have worked with energy, the more you feel it. Your body has been gaining experiences with energy, therefore, it is more familiar with the feelings. The less energy experience you have, the less you may directly feel, but you can be sure the same results are occurring.
Some feelings you may experience: you will feel grounded, more open, like a weight has been lifted off of you, happier with less anxiety, and that person that you have been grinding on will seem far, far away. You might even discover that the tightness in your stomach wasn’t because you ate too much chocolate. It was tight from too much worrying!
I remember my first Reiki treatment. I was in the midst of building my house and I was unaware of my body’s energy. According to the practitioner, my core was mighty tight with anxiety. I recall her working a long time with the palm of her hand over my Solar Plexus. Round and round her hand went, faster and faster. I didn’t know what she was doing, but in retrospect, I now know she was getting the Chakra spinning again. It was in a huge knot! When it was over, I had no words, but the sensation I was experiencing was incredible. To describe it now, I would say my core was open, breathing freely and lighter, so much lighter.
Each visit you have with a Reiki practitioner is also unique from one to another. You are in a different place every time you receive, as is the practitioner. I continue to receive Reiki because I know how important it is for me, as a practitioner, to take care of my soul/body. I can do Reiki on myself, but sometimes it is nice to just relax into someone else tending to my energy. I also have a heartwarming connection with my practitioner, Jennifer, that I desire to continue nurturing! You can find her at blendingelements.com
