Reiki –“Dare to discover what is beyond your filters”

As a practicing Reiki Energy Healer, Reiki Teacher and an Intuitive, I am often asked; What do I need to learn in order to amplify and intensify my natural healing abilities or I think I might be a healer now, I am having “the sixth sense” experiences, what do I do?

Email from The Secret Of Reiki Community Member;

I currently do massage and wanted to add Reiki to my practice. I just bought your Reiki Course and I am very excited to learn this modality. Did you have “Intuitive Experiences” when you started learning Reiki?

Great question Deborah, you will find many answers in the home study course, but let me follow up with posting this article for you and the community members.

What is intuition? As the Oxford dictionary quotes, ‘the ability to understand or know something immediately, without conscious reasoning’; Intuition is a clear and distinct knowing of knowledge, and frequently, without knowing the source the knowledge. Intuition includes feelings or sensations too; a person may just suddenly feel, or know, that he or she is or is not to do a certain thing. Most of the time intuition is without a pre-thought process. The knowledge is suddenly present within the person’s mind; or the person just feels with a compelling force that this is the thing to do.

Intuition is frequently called a hunch, a gut feeling, and a burst of genius, a gut response, and even luck. It is a function of the right hemisphere of the brain involving extra-sensory perception (ESP), but much more; it functions on the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual levels. Each person experiences intuition differently. There may be physical sensations, such as tingling of the skin or a feeling of leaden weights in the stomach; clairaudient or inner voices and Clairvoyance; seemingly explicable attractions or aversions to newly met people; inspirational solutions to problems; feelings of closeness to God or the Divine Force; mental imagery; or clue from the environment that alter personal plans.

The mystical concept of intuition is very interesting, it is:

‘the truth that surpasses the power of the intellect.’

Our culture has a serious misunderstanding of intelligence and the workings of the mind. We’ve been focusing on a physical, mind-only approach for way too long now. In truth, our intelligence extends the depth and breadth of the universes and anyone, of any age, of any IQ, can access this intelligence.

Logic sometimes enters into the decision to learn Reiki. You may have read about it, or had a treatment, or noticed the positive changes in a friend who took Reiki. Reiki can be helpful in every area of your life, releasing stress or for enhancing spirituality and intuition, a personal journey to self-realization.  The intellect has little to do on the road to discovery. There comes a leap in consciousness, call it intuition or what you will, and the solution comes to you and you don’t know how or why.

The decision to take Reiki is a leap of faith, a decision to explore unknown possibilities, a trust in our own intuitive powers. This is very clear in the cases of people who call and say, “I don’t know why I’m doing this; I just saw the word ‘Reiki’ and was very attracted to it. What Is it?“  Without fail, they schedule an appointment and in most cases learn Reiki for themselves.

Reiki and Intuitive Listening are a natural pairing: together they offer you endless possibilities to learn and experience life at many levels.  You don’t have to be a “Reiki Guru”, Reiki Practitioner, Reiki Master or Reiki Teacher to experience all the gifts that Reiki offers.  You just have to be curious or willing to be open to new life experiences.  You may be just hearing about Reiki or already practice Reiki and have a craving to learn more, which is one of the reasons I created this blog site and write informative, simple to understand e-books and articles.  (Click To Read More Of Article)

When you are attuned and learning the practice of Reiki you will quickly discover that every session (on yourself or others) will bring forward different information using your intuitive senses; you know, the ones you excuse or just shut down or explain it away as a coincidence and question yourself as to what is real or not.  You may be experiencing heightened senses of awareness beyond the usual five senses.

Do you experience…

• Do you feel heat in your hands?

• Are you so empathetic to others that you can actually feel their pain?

• Do you inherently know where a person is ill?

• Can you smell illness?

• Do you have unexpected panic and anxiety attacks, or are you extremely sensitive in    crowds, have heart palpitations or depressive symptoms for no apparent reasons that clear up and go away just as    quickly as they appeared?

• Do you feel and see things that suggest that you might be “going crazy’ to the    normal person?

• Do you hear voices or tones, or have ringing ears?

• Do you see flashes of light; see colors, “movies”, or moving objects out the side of your eye?

If any of these responses are descriptive of your unexplained reactions you experience, you are an emerging energy healer and/or an intuitive. The extra senses creating your sensations are called:

• Clairvoyance is a noun [Clair (clear) & voyant (seeing)] and is defined as a “form    of extra-sensory perception”. Clairvoyance “is the art of ’seeing’ with senses    beyond the five. Clairvoyance is often called the ’sixth sense’ or ESP. It is the    intuitive/psychic ability or power to see objects, and visions, or to gain    information regardless of its distance. The visions may also be in the future, and    some times in the past. Clairvoyance is an umbrella term which often refers to    telepathy, spiritualism, psychic research, second sight, prophetic visions, and    dreams.”

• Clairaudience “is receiving messages in thought form from another frequency or    realm in a normal state of consciousness. It is considered a form of channeling. It    is the ability to hear things not audible within normal hearing ranges.    Clairaudience may refer not to actual perception of sound, but may instead indicate    impressions of the “inner mental ear” similar to the way many people think words    without having auditory impressions. But it may also refer to actual perception of    sounds such as voices, tones, or noises which are not apparent to other humans or    to recording equipment.”

• Clairsentience is the ability to feel and capture information through sensations or    “clear feeling.” “Clairsentients receive a lot of guidance through their intuition,    gut feelings, and hunches and messages through their heart and emotions.”

• Clair-cognizance means clear knowing. A Clair-cognizant knows, without knowing how    she/he knows; according to Doreen Virtue that how “Divine wisdom enters our mind to    serve the world.”

A single trait or a combination of all of the above extra sensory talents, are usually part of a healer’s repertoire of gifts.  Education, Awareness, Tuning in and Practice are essential to better understand your personal intuition.

Reiki does not “give you” intuition;

It will help polish your intuition that already exists.

Reiki may awakening your personal intuitive awareness; sharpen and expand your awareness. Embrace intuition when it shows up in your life, trust the guidance of your inner teacher, accept its counsel as it is deeply felt and welcome its influence in your life and home.

Ask the Universe for intuitive support and integrate intuition as an important and desirable influence in making decisions.
