Everyone has things they are better at, and things they could improve. This kind of self honesty and self examination is important for a reiki healer to undertake on a regular basis.

This is an important part of providing the highest quality service to your clients and to reiki itself.

Because, that is in fact what a reiki person is doing, serving the reiki energy. I have always felt comforted by the difference between reiki and other energy arts, in that the energy while in one sense comes from me (in the ultimate sense that is) in another way it does not (the conventional or relative way).

In the everyday sense, reiki is like a “higher” energy than my personal energy. But, really that is not quite right. (because reiki is really “beyond” energy. it is beyond what are known as the four extremes, of “is”, “is not”, “both is and is not”, “neither is or is not”)

Know your strengths

For some people communication is their strength. They love to talk. And have discussions. So these people should recognise this in themselves and allow for that to form a part of the service they offer. Which can be as easy as in-corporating a cup of tea or coffee and a chat with the reiki session.

Reiki is more than hands on healing

Reiki healing is something that is only initiated by hands on healing. Once the reiki energy is connected via treatments or attunements, it starts a beautiful process of healing. Ofcourse, the more you practise the more the healing occurs, but if any person has been lucky enough to receive a reiki session, that has begun a healing process in their energy, like a blessing.

So, the healing continues after the treatment. Not just while on the reiki table. And if you like to talk, then this may present some healing spaces for your clients.

Reiki knows your strengths

I shy away from connecting reiki with personal characteristic, like saying reiki “knows your strengths” as if it were a personal relationship, because it is not accurate. But, it is true to suggest that reiki works through people and helps create situations for healing. And, the clearer the person, by having less influence of their ego, the more this is the case.

So, in a way reiki does in fact know your strengths.

And, the more in harmony your self awareness is with your natural rythmn and natural flow, the greater the opportunities for healing.

What are strengths anyway?

It is actually quite absurd in spiritual circles to discuss ideas like good and bad, strengths and weakness. Because, in the relm of spiritual practise there is no such thing.

It is a worldy idea.

What then are strengths in spiritual terms?

When you are able to facilitate healing. That is strength. When you are in harmony with your natural rythmn, that is strength.

We all have a natural rythmn. A natural flow of personal energy. Which is special and individual to us. This is because of karma, and because of conditioning. We are a product of everything that has come before.

We all have our “way”.

Focus on your strengths and be a great reiki healer

So, we should consider what are our natural strengths and allow reiki to work with us and through us to help us provide the very best service to our clients.
