I started learning about reiki back in 2006 after I was honorably discharged from the Marine Corps because of a knee injury. My office manager was a Reiki Master and began sending me reiki to help heal my knee after surgery. Along with my knee I had also gotten stress fractures in my feet and partially severed a nerve in my leg. My surgeon and physical therapist didn't think I'd fully recover, but with the reiki treatments my nerve mended and I'm literally back up and running!
Before my knee was fully healed I decided to learn reiki and got my first attunement in 2007. That was a life altering time for me. I learned that I needed to let go and heal from a lot of psychological wounds before my knee would heal - my spirit and body were connected and one couldn't heal completely if the other didn't. I always knew the spirit and body were connected but I had never realized that emotional and spiritual injuries would latch onto physical wounds and prevent me from healing. Since then I've gone on and received my Reiki Master and have enjoyed helping and healing people, pets and plants! Reiki continues to be a method of personal refinement, growth and healing for me on every level and I enjoy helping others to do the same.
The reiki community is a global network of healers. As such, I will gladly post classes that other Masters I know are offering. If you need to find a reiki in your area please contact me. I hopefully will be able to give you a personal recommendation. If not, as an affiliate member of the International Center for Reiki Training I can search their registry for other members.
