What is Reiki good for?

This month Pamposh is sharing about her amazing experiences of miracles of Reiki-

Many years ago, when I was a young sceptic, my mother fell ill with severe sciatica. She was unable to sit, stand or walk. The doctors told us she would never sit again without back surgery. Standing or walking was not on the cards even with surgery. But, they explained, at least she would be able to move around in a wheelchair, instead of being bed-ridden for life.

The family reluctantly agreed to the surgery as the only option, even though it was risky, especially given Mum’s other health issues. The surgery was scheduled for a week later. While we were waiting for this, one of my cousins suggested we consult a Reiki practitioner. My father and I were completely sceptical, but Mum said she would try it.

Five days later, with no treatment except daily distance Reiki, Mum was sitting, standing and walking unaided! I was blown away! So, too, was the surgeon when Mum walked confidently into his consulting room. All he could say was that he had no explanation for this amazing recovery.

And thus began my search to understand Reiki, find a teacher and finally to learn, practise and teach Reiki myself.

It has been a fabulous journey along which I have seen some amazing changes in my own clients – not to mention in myself! I have gone from a dyed-in-the-wool sceptic to being a firm believer in holistic and integrated healing (including medical support when needed). I have moved from being a journalist and communication specialist to becoming a Reiki Master, meditation teacher, counsellor and coach.

I witnessed my first miracle as a healer quite by chance. I had just finished delivering a talk on Reiki when a young woman walked up to me and asked if I did distance healing. “Not professionally,” I told her, “because I want my clients to be sure I am doing what I am charging them for.” She got tearful as she told me her 19-month-old nephew had fallen, head first, on to a concrete surface from the second floor. The toddler was in intensive care but the doctors were not holding out much hope. Her sister was beside herself with worry, she said and asked if I could help her in some way even though mother and son were in the US. Of course, I could and I would. I would do Reiki for both of them. She looked doubtful when I said I would do Reiki for the boy too – but accepted.

I did Reiki intermittently through the night for both the boy and his mother. Next morning, I checked my email to find a note from the aunt saying the boy was out of intensive care and expected to make a full recovery. The next line in her email has become quite a familiar one over the years – the doctors were amazed at his recovery.

Since then, I have seen so many big and small miracles – and received some truly unexpected feedback too. One client says Reiki has nearly halved the number of cysts she had, another says it has helped him overcome an arhythmic heartbeat condition (PVC), a third says she is sleeping well for the first time in her life, and a fourth says Reiki has helped her regain the confidence to drive after several years!

There is no telling how the energy may help you – but help it will!
