Question:
Hi everyone
I have my Reiki I and Reiki II and I'm looking for a little help.
Due to recent stress and situations in my life I stopped doing Reiki and to be honest I haven't done a full self treatment on myself for months. I'm sure your thinking to yourself that this would have been a great time to do some self treatments on myself but unfortunately I didn't.
The other night I tried a self treatment on myself but when I wasn't feeling the energy and any benefits I stopped again.
Would it be possible that I have blocked myself as I haven't done Reiki for quite a while?
I'm unsure what way to get back into it again?
It's always there. You may have just become insensitive to the movement of energy or you just didn't need the energy that could have been flowing. (That's my understanding, at least.)
Why not try a test: sit down in a quiet room, apply the power symbol to your left hand, pause and see if you can feel anything, comparing left and right hand.
Hi SunnyStar,
I would say it's just a matter of opening your mind up to it all again. It has never left you, and will alwaays be there for when you need it. Just try some meditations and then a self treatment, and see how you feel. Remembering that no two treatments are ever the same and you may, or may not feel anything.
Thanks to you both for your help. I'm going to have a nice bath tonight and will do some self healing in bed and I've just remembered Paul's words - Do Not Worry!

Hi Sunnystar
I can relate to you exactly. I too had stopped doing Reiki due to stress as I was unable to treat myself - I was also worried it might attract too much negative energy and have an adverse effect, but that could be because I was stressed!!! My mind wasn't working too well! humm is it now I ask myself.....[sm=jump1.gif]
However, I came out the other side and did it without medication and I found that Reiki is flowing freely, so keep at it and I am sure you'll be fine.;)

Hi sunnystar
Don't think about it, just do it, and don't worry! :)
Thanks for your words JoyceJ and Poppet. Think I was worrying to much and thought I was doing something wrong.
I've stopped now and am letting the energy flow.
Love & Light

Okay. Bear with me 'cos I'm new to this forum business. I am a practising Reiki Master/Practitioner/Teacher. Relating to the issue of stress in our lives, as one who knows this path only too well in diverse areas, I have found the practising of the 5 Reiki principles during Gassho most beneficial. Every morning upon waking I perform gassho and recite the 5 principles- giving myself permission to make it "just for today". I repeat this before sleeping. Trust me, it helps.
I am committed to the development of Reiki for all. I am currently completing my FE teaching certificate with Reiki as my special discipline and look forward to it being recognised as a main stream therapy being used both in the health and education sectors. If I can be of any help to anyone, please don't hesitate! I am not the font of all knowledge and often need some guidance myself!
The suggestions mentioned are great, so I won't repeat, but have you thought about going to someone else for a treatment? It might just get your energies going again so everything all comes flooding back to you:D
Just a thought.
