Hi everyone! Has anyone here completed Reiki training with Master Mete on Udemy? I'd love to hear about your experience. Was the course authentic, helpful, and worth taking?

Hello… I’m a Reiki practitioner and have been partaking and Reiki sessions for about two years now… And something has changed

Whenever my Rema puts her hands on my chest… My heart starts racing uncontrollably… And I always try to allow and work through whatever is going on in my body, but it’s been consistent for about 4 to 5 sessions… She’s tried different techniques, including Sound baths, tuning forks, etc. and I just thought I’d ask if anyone would have any idea as to why this keeps happening… or if they’ve experienced anything like this.

Something worth noting… Whenever I’ve cuddled with my previous partners, and their head or any body part is laying on my chest, I become hyper aware of my heartbeat and it starts beating faster and I start sweating. I thought I was over this, but it seems like it’s coming back during my recent sessions

Is there anyway to know if I have negative/parasite entities attached to me? What can I do about it?

Thank you 🤍

Have a friend that called me crying. She believes she has had an attachment for quite some time. Feels hopeless. Doesn't know what to do and has no one to help her. Can someone contact me that might be able to tell me how to help her or what to do. Please.

1. Foundations of Reiki Ryoho (Nickolas Pearson): A rare and well researched book on more Traditional Japanese Reiki traditions such as Jikiden, a Hayashi / Yamaguchi linage. This explains, from a Japanese prospective, where it all came from. I learned these techniques in my tradition and can vouch that they are authentic. Its an interesting read.
   
2. The Hayashi Reiki Manual and the Original Reiki Handbook - both by Shangri-la press: As an LMT, I do a lot of traditional hands on therapeutic techniques in my clinic.

TLDR: I am seeking a solution to clear out what I feel are toxic and parasitic entities and am exploring reiki as an option.

I am a person with about ten years of daily meditation experience. I am not given to fantasies and have thought on the matter of these forces as imaginary but sense deeply they are toxic and external entities that are feeding on me rather than mere forces of my subconscious.

I am looking for authentic experience based guidance to learn to clear them out over time, it is not a matter which I will rush but instead one which I will take time in doing and out my inner vision on over the next several years to get results and try to be clear of these forces through a consistent but measured effort.

If you have experience with this, I would like to hear about. I am not looking for quick fixes and elaborate rituals, but to do the work gradually and consistently, with myself being open to seeing every aspect of myself while being really self critical and authentically responsible, but ultimately free of the force I sense inside me.

Hi all,

I'm looking for a little encouragement, advice, or insight.

I received my Reiki I attunements a week ago. In the months prior I felt an increasingly strong pull to learn it, despite never having just had a healing myself. I picked up Essential Reiki by Diane Stein, received my first Reiki healing on my birthday as a gift to myself, another "mini" session a week later from a different practitioner, and then went on to learn Reiki I a week later from this second practitioner.

The trouble is, I haven't felt anything at all. No energy sensations, no heat in my hands, no calm or spacey feelings. No noticeable physical improvements. No skepticism, either -- just openness, curiosity, and, I suppose, hopefulness.

After receiving the attunements, my teacher asked me how I felt and I had nothing to say. Normal? Grateful? Curious? I didn't have any physical sensations to report, but I wasn't worried. I figured things would unfold over time.

I was instructed to give myself a self-healing everyday for 21 days and this week I've been pretty diligent about it, except for one day. I continue to feel nothing in my hands, no sensations of energy or intuition. I found a couple of videos online to follow along with, which made the sessions easier, since I was starting to feel frustrated about not feeling anything resembling an "energy cycle" that would signal to move to the next position.

Is this normal? Am I doing something wrong?

I'm under the impression that my teacher is a reputable one, with solid community connections, and came highly recommended by another practitioner.

I generally have an open mind despite having been mostly a materialist for the last two decades, so I surprised myself by feeling pulled to Reiki. But my sense of spirituality is now strong; I have faith in my own intuition and trusted the pull. I've heard that belief is not necessary for Reiki to work, but even if it were, I don't think faith is the problem.

I don't think patience is the issue either, necessarily... I would just like any sign at all that something is happening, and that I didn't just spend $1200 on nothing.

I'd be grateful for any advice or insight.

Is it possible to use reiki to heal oneself from addictions or addictive behaviour that started in early life.

I'm a holy fire reiki master, and I wanted to reach out about the involvement of water while doing reiki. I've always noticed a boost in the healing that I perform on myself when I'm in the shower or a jacuzzi. These past few days as I've been working on an old injury, I've noticed an exponential increase in the healing factor. I was wondering if there are any other practitioners out there that have experienced this. I have had this horrible groin injury for years, and over the past few days I've done my sessions on myself in the shower. It feels unreal how rapidly it's healing! I don't know if I have some sort of special connection with water. I'm just very curious to hear if there's anybody else that has heard of anything like this.

Hello Reiki community,

I just got home from an impromptu Reiki session. I was at my local crystal shop and was told there was a Reiki offering today. Once I was done shopping, I wanted to take up the offer to have a Reiki session (paid) and align my chakras.

We briefly discussed my understanding and expectations of Reiki. Then we agreed upon boundaries with touch and proceeded with the session. Things were going well, and I began opening up more and more as the session went on. She worked down my center, then shifted to my right arm, then leg. Then, as she moved to my left side, something in the energy shifted. I started to feel intense anxiety and fear. The touch felt more pressured when she touched my shoulder and again on my chest. I began to close off energetically once I started feeling this way. I focused on my breath and tried to calm myself. I have no idea what this was, or whether it was coming from within me, from her, or somewhere else.

After the session, I didn't know what to do or how to bring it up. So I left and came here to inquire with others who are more experienced with this than I am. Does anyone know what this could have been or what I can or should do? I went home immediately and have been feeling a lasting energy depletion since then. As soon as I got home, I washed my hands and used some sage to cleanse my body.

Thank you for reading, and any advice is greatly appreciated.

I have just started getting into some energy work after working closely with a healer. I've been able to feel an electromagnetic sensation between my hands and then I feel contraction and expansion of energy against my hand with inhalations and exhalations. When I hover my hand over my abdomen, each inhalation corresponds to contraction of energy like a magnet pulling my hand in and exhalation does the opposite.

Is this type of practice better suited to chi gong or should I pursue reiki? From what I'm learning, reiki requires you to complete a course with a teacher. Right now I'm mainly interested in self-healing and strengthening the current practice I'm doing. There are so many modalities and I'm getting a little overwhelmed.

Hi, Everyone!

Last week, we explored anger and the heavy emotions it may be hiding or protecting. We imagined saying “I love you” to our anger and allowing it to transform into friendly birds, animals, and flowers.

This week, we are going on another multidimensional journey through Pretendland.

Our guide is Puck.

Puck is a zero-dimensional point—our smallest unit of consciousness and our smallest self capable of wonder. Puck has no weight, length, width, or depth. She simply exists.

Because Puck is only a point, she can travel without a physical body. She moves through dimensions using imagination, emotion, and Unconditional Love.

Today, Puck has a special mission.

Imagine Puck putting on her tiny emoji wings and traveling through the Fibonacci pathways of consciousness. She moves beyond ordinary space and time until she reaches the Dragons who are making their way toward Earth.

Puck greets the Dragons with Unconditional Love.

She tells them about Earth, humanity, the animals, the oceans, the forests, and all the beings who need support. She then guides the Dragons safely through the dimensions and welcomes them into Pretendland’s version of Earth.

These are Dragons of protection, strength, wisdom, balance, and transformation.

They are here to help stabilize and strengthen the energetic foundations of Earth. They will support humanity and all concerned who need healing, protection, grounding, courage, and hope.

Imagine the Dragons flying around the planet and gently strengthening Earth’s energetic grid.

Imagine them helping to calm emotions that have become overwhelming or out of balance.

Imagine them absorbing and transmuting excess fear, anger, grief, confusion, and division without harming anyone.

Imagine them helping us ground higher frequencies of compassion, cooperation, awareness, and Unconditional Love.

The Dragons 🐉 do not force change or interfere with anyone’s free will. They offer support wherever it is welcomed and wherever it serves the highest good of all concerned.

May they protect the vulnerable.

May they strengthen those who are tired.

May they support those who are healing. ✨ ✨

May they help humanity become more conscious of one another, the planet, and the consequences of our choices.

May Earth 🌎 and all her beings return gently to balance.

Everything here is pretend. You are welcome to imagine it in any way that feels comfortable to you—or simply receive Reiki and rest.

THE LOVE CIRCLE

Imagine you or your loved one is now in a circle ⭕️ . You are surrounded by 36 Reiki practitioners sending you waves of UNCONDITIONAL LOVE and wrapping your body in UNCONDITIONAL LOVE.❤️

Imagine your body and your organs releasing excess emotions, sensations, feelings, stress, and pain.

We will use the Violet Flame to cleanse the circle and stir away the pain, heaviness, and negativity surrounding your body, its organs, and its systems. Your body will thank you. Imagine doing it for 20 mins.

Now imagine your own Puck appearing as a tiny point of consciousness.

Give Puck a little “me.”

You may give Puck emoji arms, legs, wings, eyes, a smile, or anything else you would like.

Imagine Puck joining the other Pucks from the Love Circle and flying toward the Dragons. Together, they guide the Dragons to the people, animals, communities, and places on Earth that need stability, strength, protection, and support.

Imagine one Dragon resting beside you. 🐉

It does not need to fix or change you. It simply remains beside you, helping you feel safe, grounded, protected, and strong enough to continue your journey.

We will be here for 24 hrs, making sure everyone has an opportunity to release pain and stress from their body, its organs, and its systems and find love within.

Don’t worry. We will be very gentle and take good care of your pain and excess negative emotions and feelings, if you have any.

Hope you all feel well tomorrow and ready to start a new week.

This is Master Storm. I am an Usui Reiki Master. I, along with Master Phoenix and the Space Croissant Crew, am responsible for Gratitude Reiki, the website, and our Sunday events here on r/reikishare and r/reiki.

Thank you for allowing us to help all of you every Sunday.

🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲

OUR TREE PROJECT WILL CONTINUE!

If you’d like to help us ground the session, consider planting a tree.

Google “how to plant a tree for a dollar.” Share the receipt with us in the comments. It’s a real tree, and it’s now forever connected to you, helping you breathe through difficult times.

Thank you for your kindness!

So far this year, we have 193 trees planted! Our goal for 2026 is 500 trees. We’re a bit behind.

When you plant a tree🌲 , you create a TREE-SELF, and you can imagine that tree helping you BREATHE in REAL LIFE from now on and for the rest of your life. Let us know if your tree has a name too!

🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲

This is it! We’re excited for today’s session!

We have a whole team of people doing Ground Control, so you don’t have to be afraid of spacing out and not knowing how to come back. Just stay in touch!

Let us know tomorrow how you feel! The goal is for you to feel good now and support the healing of your body and mind.

Thank you!

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

So i was doing Qi gong on yoqi website and they did something called Pai Da or slapping qi gong.

Some of the moves i recognised from reiki dry bathing, you know when you slap along the arms and across the torso to cleanse the meridians there.

I wonder how Pai Da Qi gong and reiki dry bathing are related.

This is an example of Pai Da Qi gong or tapping Qi gong.

I’m curious how you all go about a distance healing. How do you start? What hand positions do you use? Is there an order in which the symbols are drawn? Do you use photos, assigned objects or the aura of the person wanting healing?

Need reconciliation healing to repair a very old friendship gone wrong. 🙏🏻🙏🏻

Thank you in advance beautiful souls 🌸🙏🏻

For the past two years, I’ve been offering short Reiki sessions to friends and family, usually focused on the 8 hand placement positions I was taught. Today during my level 2 attunement (a different person attuned me for both levels), she mentioned it was more about the chakra points in level 2 than the hand placements. How accurate is this? And does it really matter?

Something that needs clarification are the descriptions for “online Reiki Training“

Almost everyone assumes “online Reiki Training” means a person will watch a pre-recorded Reiki Training video.

It does not.

“Online Reiki Training” also includes the live interaction that can take place over Zoom, FaceTime, Google hangout or any other platform that allows live face-to-face interaction as if you are in a classroom. Such live trainings over a distance are highly effective, cost-effective, and beneficial.

TL/dr) instead of saying “online Reiki Training, say“a recorded Reiki Training” if that is what you mean.

But if you mean, “live training over a distance,” say that.

Please strive for accuracy in describing what you mean. Many people are causing confusion by using incorrect descriptions. Thank you.

Hi. I just got attuned to Reiki 2 today. I’m curious how people on here have eased into a level 2 practice and gotten accustomed to using the symbols. My teacher recommended a 5 week practice of self-healing (each week focused on when I was ages 0-7, 7-14 and so on until age 35).

Also, she mentioned something about a Reiki sandwich (sandwiching of symbols) but I wasn’t quite sure which symbols to combine and in what circumstances. Can someone also shed light on this?

My daughter got a bug bite on her thigh. My five year-old grandson‘s first thought was called grandma to get some Reiki for your bug bite. I love this kid!

Hi there!

I have a session on Saturday. This will be my third session, the first two occurred maybe two years ago. They were great, the first one I had a clear message come to me.

I am not sure what reiki actually helps with though, I know it helps with energy flow but I have some specific goals.

I am interested in manifestation, and opening myself up to ‘beyond the physical’ (spirit guides, channeling etc). I want to optimise my ability to manifest quicker by allowing my body to enter the stream of ‘allowing’ and entering ‘the vortex’ (per Abraham Hicks terminology). I also want to my intuition ability to be stronger. I feel like I am blocked.

Could reiki help with this? Any experience anecdotes are welcome.

I recently did my first Reiki session. The practioner offered a free "clarity call" prior to the session to see if we would be a good match before booking. During the first five minutes of our call, I was in tears. I felt ridiculous crying on the phone with a stranger. She was not phased at all and said it was my spirit guides leading me to her and she would be honored to work with me if I felt inclined to book with her. The day of my appointment she sat with me for about 15 minutes before reiki to ask what brought me in and to ask about my emotions on the phone. Again I began crying. Sobbing actually. During reiki I continued to cry but tried to control it as it was making it difficult to breathe. After the session I cried some more. But she was so supportive. I have never felt so safe and cared for and loved. My experience was amazing. I spoke to a medium today and told her about my experience. She told me that during my session I had a visit from Guanyin. That she was not only there for me but for the practioner as well. I was curious if anyone has any experience with the goddess of mercy. What are your thoughts?

Hi everyone, I had an incredible reiki session where I felt like I released a lot (I’ve been going through a rough time). I felt great afterwards but then thought it would be a good idea to list my moldavite and agni manitite pendants for sale. I handled them and then felt this intense anxiety coming on. Was I more open energetically after my reiki session? I feel so silly for undoing all the calm that I felt
