I also agree with the handwashing afterwards.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1310700715747991260.post-14918572053733314502011-12-29T14:31:10.702-08:002011-12-29T14:31:10.702-08:00Kim, I don't do Reiki, but my sister in law is...Kim, I don't do Reiki, but my sister in law is a Reiki Master.

I have seen for myself from the very beginning what that kind of energy can do to even your electrical appliances (trust me, I didn't understand until I experienced it myself) and I would not want that kind of energy directed at my own body! <br /><br />I guess it comes down to what your own Reiki Master has taught you which is of course handed down from their Reiki Master's lineage. I have complete trust in my own Reiki Master (who also happens to be a Wiccan High Priestess as well)and I know that so far, she has never steered me wrong with any of my teachings.<br /><br />Blessing as always,<br /><br />KimKimhttp://thewiccalife.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1310700715747991260.post-31770721952229943922011-12-29T01:23:15.892-08:002011-12-29T01:23:15.892-08:00I don't know much about Reiki, but my sister i...I don't know much about Reiki, but my sister is a remarkable energy healer (and I have a fraction of that "talent"), and now matter where we stand when working, if we do not wash our hands with clear water afterwrads, we are almost certain to keep some of the nasty for ourselves. Hence I do not know whether it would be actually standing in front of the client's feet that would cause the headaches and stuff or just the "tradition" of this being a bad thing.Diandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14570498251611083259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1310700715747991260.post-29550592521412445402011-12-28T17:43:59.596-08:002011-12-28T17:43:59.596-08:00Artsings ~ I, too, work on the feet from the back ...Artsings ~ I, too, work on the feet from the back or the side only - it works! And I love the way you describe your role as reiki practitioner with working with the Devine. You are soo right, my dear sister!!!<br /><br />Leanne ~ Hmmm, that kind of makes me wonder if that may be why you got so sick after your classes???

I agree with you on the feet thing....although at some of the Reiki shares there was some who worked on someones feet since they were giving them a problem. But I wouldn't do that, at least not at the bottom, perhaps on the side. At the end of the treatment we would work the negative energy down from the head through the feet. You know we could actually feel that. <br /><br />Happiness and Light to ALL !ArtSings1946https://www.blogger.com/profile/06334512350452471407noreply@blogger.com
