Learning Reiki is a spiritual process, therefore, choosing the right Reiki teacher is a very important step to learning this healing technique. While there are lots of Reiki practitioners who are willing to teach Reiki, there are various factors which should be kept in mind when deciding which one to choose.
The first and foremost point is that the student and the Reiki teacher should be compatible. Make sure you talk to the Reiki master beforehand and that you are comfortable with him/her and that your ideas and philosophies match.
Make sure that there is respect between you and your Reiki teacher. They should respect you and your views. If this is not the case, search for someone else. You will only have the right atmosphere for learning if you have mutual respect for each other.
Before you choose a Reiki teacher, you should have a few Reiki session with them to get familiar with their working environment. You need to make sure that you are also comfortable with this environment so that you will feel open to the ideas you are learning.
And the last thing you should be aware of before deciding on a specific Reiki teacher is how long they have been practicing Reiki and whether they continue to study it on a regular basis. Regular practice of Reiki is required for transmitting the energy from the teacher to the student and is required for the proper growth of the student. Have fun!
Welcome to Healthy Living!
Most of us want to live a healthier life, but it is sometimes a daunting task trying to sift through the often-conflicting information we are given, in an effort to find what will work for us. We have all heard the ongoing debate about whether low-carb diets are healthy or bad for us and the varied opinions about which carbs we should be eating. There is the accepted opinion that coffee/caffeine has a harmful effect on your life and then the newer opinion that it is actually beneficial. The same is true for alcohol - red wine to be specific - does it kill brain cells or does is that negated due to the positive, healthy effects it seems to have on the heart? These debates are only the tip of the iceberg . . .
While the previous issues address what we should and shouldn't be eating, there is also the question of what to do if we have developed some ill effects (not feeling well, no energy, weight gain, disease) and want to reverse them. There are so many possible solutions. Do we fast - and if so what kind of fast (juice, water, fruit)? Do we need to detox? If so - how? Herbal cleanses, colonics, saunas, body wraps, sea water baths, Epsom salt baths? What herbs will help heal our bodies and in what quantities? And what about the alternative therapies: massage, Reiki, bio-feedback, hypnotherapy, meditation, light therapy, aromatherapy (to name only a few!)? Which of these would help us in our particular situation?
How to make sense of all this information? We would like to have this site be a place to discuss which things have worked for us (or haven't) and hopefully by sharing our experiences we will be able to help each other wade through all the possibilities and find our own paths to a Healthy Life!
