Reiki
Dan & I went for Reiki tonight at The Reiki School. I was really curious if this session would be the same as the last one. Not that making the last student cry was a bad thing, nor did I feel bad about doing it, but I guess it's just a reminder to me that my body is still working through trauma. And it calls attention to it too.
The session was nice, especially since I was able to breathe through my nose the whole time. I wanted to fall asleep but for some reason, I never went into 'the zone'. That's ok. In due time. But I did feel a ton of heat coming off my head which isn't much of a surprise. I didn't feel it as much the 1st time I had reiki. I also felt her hands trembling a lot with some twitching.
In a way, it's comforting because it's communication without saying a word. And that's where I have trouble explaining to people how I'm feeling or what I experience on a daily basis. I just wish I was past the point of it being so intense.
Melissa, the woman who worked on me, seemed to react well to it all. She seemed intune with herself enough to not be shaken by it, unlike the 1st woman who worked on me. And that's not a bad thing either, but I felt like I really challenged the 1st person because she was so emotional afterwards. Melissa said that there were a few times where she came close to crying but didn't actually cry.
But the best part of the night ... Kim asked me if I remembered working on someone named Megan. I said that I did. She then told me that Megan said how great of an experience she had at our student clinic to the point where she was going to join the program. Megan was the person who had all of the emotional releases with me in clinic. I told Kim that she was my most notable sessions and that it was great having worked on her. What a great compliment!
So, that's that. I'll be waiting for my notification email about the next clinic in a few months.
