Anna's Story

You know, as far as the cleansing process, again; I had in my mind what I expected to happen and it hasn't. I thought I would experience a "physical" cleansing and that has not been the case. Last week, ( all week) I was on a huge inner peace and acceptance of all things sort of utopia cloud. I have used Reiki everyday on myself as well as my family and friends. However, Sunday came and I found myself struggling with demons that I thought were only present in "THOSE poor unfortunate souls".

I have had three days of DEEP, corner cleaning, dust bunny hunting, soul exposing, cleansing taking place! I have been in a constant state of awareness, recognition, meditation, prayer and Reiki, just to have the cycle start over again. It is a very good thing that I understand that I am just a huge bundle of potential!...Who knew that Reiki would lead to a deeper mediation/prayer connection to God?

You know, I have been pondering the source of Reiki. What is it? I can FEEL it's presence. I can FEEL when it is flowing. I am experiencing Reiki's power to ignite physical, mental, emotional, spiritual growth and wellness but I can't know how, when or what to expect. It is sort of like prayer only it is combined WITH ACTION. Instead of praying and just waiting for God to "fix it", I can pray and ask for the use of Reiki (divinely guided life force energy) and then stretch forth my hands and become a participant in the request. I feel like it is the difference between asking someone to change my flat tire and asking to borrow the tools so that I can change it myself. It is the tools that make the difference, not who is using them. (Of course it helps to know how to use the tools and who you borrowed them from so you can thank them)

That is another thing that I have been experiencing in the last few days. VERY DEEP TEARS IN MY EYES, GRATITUDE! I am very grateful to God for everyone and everything that has been brought into my life and we are talking about right down to the blades of grass that are sheltering the ants that are digging their way under my garage trying to get into my house!

I am also very grateful for you Tracy. I must admit I did had (small) reservations about receiving my Reiki training in Utah. As I mentioned in class I was considering a Master in another state. I was concerned that religious beliefs would hinder or enhance my experience. You put those fears to rest just by being you. Your deep connection to Spirit allowed you to facilitate a very informative, professional (and yes, for me a Spiritual )learning experience. You are truly a place where God shines through. It was beyond awesome to find a three day "play date" where my inner child full of questions and curiosity could come out and play and leave with such a deep life changing gift. You were very patient with all of my quirky comments and questions. You were very supportive of the learning process. You instructed me and attuned me to the centuries old, sacred healing art of Reiki and still took the time to remind me that this is an individual gift to be used how God and I work it out. I can hear you say, " experiment, how does that work for you?" You are Awesome! I can't wait to receive further training from you. If you will have me as a student, my intentions are to become a Reiki Master.
