1. Interesting Reiki Stories:
Reiki stories are posted as a way to help keep us inspired and to remember to use Reiki as a tool in healing. If you have an experience or story to share, please forward it to us, otherwise I will try to post a story or two monthly that I find on the web.
Reiki Repairs a Crushed Finger by Suze Source
My security door ate my little finger on the hinged side of the door and slammed closed. It was trapped in there for way longer than I would have chosen due to the fact I could not reach the handle to open the door. Attempts to pull my finger out so to speak were also tried tested and failed.
I eventually got stretched enough to open the door and release my finger and wrapped it in a frozen gel pack in the most incredible pain I have ever experienced, causing me to do an all night long ouch dance.
My other half eventually took a look at it as I did not want to see. Claimed "oh wow it is flat as a pancake".
I Reikied my finger whenever I could, and after swelling up like it would burst, not wanting to bend, a blue fingernail and losing feeling in it, I am happy to say - 8 days later it is better!

2. Requests for Long Distance Healing:
Requests for Long Distance Healing: When there are several requests, in our small way, we can participate by adding each individual to our prayer list or to send long distance Reiki. Please consider printing out these requests so you can remember these people over this next month.
If you make a request for long distance healing, it would be helpful if you could provide us with some feedback on how the person is doing after a period of time.Remember if there are multiple requests, you can use the stack method of sending long distance Reiki. One suggestion would be: When time permits-- send long distance Reiki for one specific request, then add that request to an on-going list or stack that receives unlimited Reiki.
Level I Practitioners: You can participate in the Long Distance Requests by adding the individuals to your prayer list or send positive thoughts and intentions.
Prayers for Transition: Request from Susan Please include my aunt, Francis Cinquino from Batavia, NY, who passed over a few days ago,in your prayers. Also please include her husband Joseph, and her children and grandchildren. Thank you.
Request from Susan: Your long distance reiki or prayers are appreciated for my aunt, Emily Dezzi, from Hatfield, PA who is recovering from some recent health challenges. Thank you!
This section will be updated as requests come in, if you have a request for Long Distance Reiki, email it to seedsforchange@comcast.net, title the request Long Distance Reiki

3. Q & A
QUESTION: How long will I feel the benefits from having a Reiki session?
ANSWER: A Reiki practitioner cannot dictate where the Reiki energy is most needed by you at the time of a treatment nor can she know how long you will continue to feel the positive effects from a session. Reiki is an individualized experience and your needs at the time will determine how long you will feel the positive effects. Clients with chronic issues often schedule regular sessions for pain management and many do the same for the wonderful relaxation and stress relief that they experience.
QUESTION: Is it possible to feel Reiki after the practitioner has withdrawn his or her hands?
ANSWER: Yes. When you treat an area with Reiki, the energy often keeps on working there even after the hands have been removed. A healing response has been triggered and can be felt sometimes for hours after the treatment - just like the nutrients from our food stay in the body long after we have eaten.

7. Working with Others: Releasing Grudges Technique
Sometimes we find ourselves holding onto to negative feelings that revolve around ourselves and another individual, group, or situation. This grudge of negativity can turn inward as well and create an attachment to us that will eventually manifest as an illness of some sort. It doesn't matter what it is, or why it is...it is unhealthy for all involved, it is centered in fear, and it throws each of us off balance on all levels.
You might be reading this and saying BUT he/she deserves it, do you know what they have done to me? And I am going to say, if you are not coming from a place of unconditional love, then this person or situation has blessed you with a gift you have not recognized yet...there is something inside of yourself you are still seeking to master yourself for your personal growth, and they have agreed to be a catalyst for that growth on an energetic level.
So if you find yourself in that type of space and are ready to release the emotion, here is a technique that will assist you.
Releasing Grudges Energy Healing Technique:
Find a quiet place and to do Reiki for about 20 minutes to a half an hour. Begin to allow the Reiki energy to start to flow through you while you do this, placing your hands on your solar plexus.
1) Relax, close your eyes, bring your attention to your third eye chakra. Visualize the midnight blue of this chakra center, and allow it to begin to spiral open. Feel the energy flow here in a balanced way.
2) Place the tip of your tongue gently on the roof of your mouth, just behind your teeth.
3) While focusing on your third eye, breath deeply, in through the nose and out through the mouth, 3 times. Each time clearing out stale energy, while bringing in fresh, clear, harmonious energy.
4) Visualize the person, place or thing that you wish to release the negative emotions from standing in front of you. If it is an organization that you are holding a grudge against, it is good to use a symbol that is representative of that group.
5) Bring your attention to your heart chakra. Open this center, feel the pinkish-green intertwining color coming from this area, and feel it opening outward in a strong, balanced way.
6) Continue to feel the rest of your chakras, opening and spinning in a balanced way, as you give yourself reiki.
7) Once you have opened each chakra, then visualize a flood of golden light pouring from your heart center and into that image you are holding in front of you. With each out-breath, visualize more and more golden light beaming outward, surrounded by the light
8) Allow the image in your third eye to become completely infused by golden light, to the point where you can no longer see the image at all.
9) Place both hands over the heart center and affirm, I have released all attachments to (situation), and choose to remain centered in love.
10) Repeat your affirmation 3 times.
11)End by encircling yourself in this powerful healing light.

9. Tips & Tidbits:
60 Ways to Heal Your Life… From Lynda Field’s book Each month one of Lynda’s suggestion is included:
Suggestion 39: Make Good VIbrations Your mind is a powerful energy broadcaster. Your thoughts are magnetic and they go out from you and draw to you those things that you think about. Think about how you feel when you spend time with someone who is extremely negative. The vibrations get very low and eventually affect your own mood. How do you feel when you spend time with someone who is positive and enthusiastic? The vibrations rise and you feel better for having meet them. Your thoughts create your reality as they go out into the world and determine the events, people, and objects which you attract into your life.
You can raise your energetic vibrations and feel lighter by using higher words and thoughts when you speak to yourself and others. If you feel anxious or low use positive words to raise your energy. Say such words to yourself as HARMONY, PEACE, LOVE, RADIANCE, BEAUTY, JOY ENTHUSIASM, DELIGHTFUL, INSPIRED...Think and speak all of the beautiful and inspiring words you know. Notice how, when you use these words when talking to other people, you will feel lighter and brighter.. Use uplifting words in the company of others and watch and feel the changes in their energy and yours.
EXERCISE: HIGH WORDS, HIGH THOUGHTS, HIGH VIBRATIONS This is a great exercise to do on the way to work. Take each letter of the alphabet and think of the highest word you can beginning with that letter. Use these words ABUNDANTLY and the effect will be AMAZING!
