Thanks for the reply. She said Reiki was a stepping stone in my journey to being an "authentic healer" and I should move on from it. I can't get past the fact that I've had no business from it despite all the advertising and promotion I have done. I organised a Reiki demonstration on a local estate and no-one came!. I am trying to ask spirit what to do but I can't seem to work anything out. The choices felt right except for not getting clients.
Hi I’m looking for some advice on some conflicting advice I have had on my healing abilities. I have been able to heal for 30 plus years but not really bothered about it, but due to being ill a few years ago I got into Reiki and rose up to Master 6 months ago. My Master said I had always been able to heal and was channelling Reiki from the start. I set up a website and have adverts on the top line in yell and at my local Asda/Walmart in a prominent position. Six months later I have had 1 customer. I understand I may not be ready yet but my intentions have always been to be a healer.
In order to raise my vibration further I have been attending a local Meetup meeting of like minded people who want to chat about spiritual awakening. The chair is a lady who says she is connected to source and has been for ages. I had a private session with her and she said the reason why I have no business, and this is from source is that I am not being “authentic”. She says I am a natural healer and Reiki was invented by Mr Usui a few hundred years ago and it was his journey not mine. I should be my own healer and advertise as this and not advertise Reiki healing.
It took a leap of faith, I have always been a scientist and wanted proof of things, to believe in the “force” that is Reiki and have had lots of proof since. Now I am being asked to discard it and go back to being just me as a healer and do that. I can’t distinguish between the two anymore and I don’t know what is what and which direction to go.
She says there is a paradigm shift going on and people will come to me because I am an authentic healer and I don’t need a certificate saying I can do it. Her advice was to advertise on local Fb as a healer and ask for people one day a week. Just do what I feel I need to and word of mouth will get me the business I need to live, donations only. I understand this but I am struggling with the definition of the healing I am doing. The Empath in me is just a bit suspicious of her, she said I needed to drink water, which I hate with avengence and if I don’t look after myself how can I expect source to look after me? Are they words to come from a pure love source? I pride myself in being able to spot lies/bull and something just rings the bell when she speaks.
I don’t really know what I can do to understand the dilemma and hope you can shed some light on it for me. I want to move forward but I’m at an impasse!
Just replies on here please no private messages.
Hi, some good advice above. I would start by blocking out all the negative emotions and fill your aura with light and let yourself shine. If you start looking after yourself and start meditationg, your Divine Plan will start to appear to you. I only found out I was absorbing energy 2 years ago and found Elise's survival guide which helped tremendously in getting through the day without total exhaustion setting in. I took up Reiki and that showed me the way to help people and to look after myself. Always think positive and remember you cant help everyone but you can shine your light as bright as possible. Love and Light X
Hi, I too am just starting on the journey and finding things out about myself, but have also found no one to talk to who knows the answers. I have just taken a level 1 Reiki course and it has opened my eyes to things that are around us that very few people know are happening. I have told my family about it but they too are sceptical and my son just laughs. I was away on holiday the last few weeks and had a couple of medical issues with two members of the family and I placed my hands on them for a few minutes and the pain and the issue went away, so now they have proof its gone a bit quiet!
I have always known I could heal but only my partners have known about it. I have also only just realise in the past year or so what an Empath is and that I am one. The journey you are going on will primarily be a solo one unless you can find a kindred spirit to bounce off and help you. I am totally non religeous and very scientific so I need evedence. I went into the Reiki with an open heart and mind and it has changed my life.
When I held a girls head I felt like I had her soul in the palm of my hands. I told my tutor before she woke up ( es thats another strange gift I can hold someones hand and send them to sleep in a few minutes. Why is this and what can I use it for- non anaesthetic operations?) she said to the tutor she felt like she was out of her body when I held her crown.
I dont think "Normal" society is ready to accept this yet and you will always get the kind of reaction you get unless you confide in a loved one who is willing to take you as you are. My partner of 5 years takes me as I am I am blessed with her. She has seen what I can do and trusts me 100% with it, but still she doesn't understand what is happenning inside my head.
As a guide you should do the exercises on Elises page to block stuff out, read up on stuff for your journey and talk to whoever you can find who will listen. You will be able to spot the narcissists or vampire drains easily who are just there to leach you and you must practice trusting your instincts. If you think somthing is wrong then it is, fact. The sooner you start doing this the stronger you will become and the smoother your journey.
By the way I am a 58 year old man with 7 children, who has been a roofer for 21 years until retraining as a Maths, English and Motor Vehicle lecturer at 52. I wonder sometimes why I have found all this out about myself so late in life. I am sure my daughter is the same as me. If you are still reading thanks for listening and hope it helps.
Recently we have just fitted blackout curtains as my wife works shifts and has to sleep during the day sometimes, I have found I am having a deeper sleep through the night now and not waking up as often. It is something to do with the light stimulating your eyes and waking you up. If you keep your eyes partially shut when you nip to the loo it lets less light in and you fall back to sleep easier afterwards, but the curtains have definitely made a difference.
This is rife in the workplace today, I was recently let go from a job that paid 50% of the normal teaching rate and it felt like a relief when it had gone. I couldn't understand why I had been there so long. We tend to take the negative energy on board and its difficult to get rid of it before it impacts on your life. Its a vicious circle I'm afraid
There are loads of cliches you can use here, but the best way to describe your predicament would be: It is better to regret doing something than not doing something. Just have a go and you can always say "I did it", rather than when you are older and greyer "I wish I had". I have had a fear of being a "cowboy" all my life and it has always led me to undervalue myself, but recently I've though I might as well not worry about it as everything I do turns out OK, my fears are the fear itself. The worst thing that can happen is you find out you don't know as much as you think, but that is all part of the learning process. If you get answered a question you can't answer then research it untill you can.
Hope this helps
