I was introduced to Reiki about 9 years ago. I was living in Hawaii studying everything both in school and out. I had just finished a dance class and felt a massive migraine coming on. My good friend Radha and I walked across the University of Hawaii campus to get some food and drinks hoping it would help. But no. Ugh. All I wanted to do was close my eyes and cry. Seriously, it was the pounding, blinding, make you want to die kind of migraine.
My friend Radha, sat me down, offered to give me Reiki and before I even responded, she used her pointer fingers to trace symbols into her palms. She told me to close my eyes and breathe slowly through my nose. I did as I was instructed and felt her hands softly cover my eyes. Within a few minutes her hands became extremely hot and I felt this amazing soft pulsing sensation moving throughout my body. With my eyes closed, I began to see spirals of colors in my mind’s eye and felt a wave of total relaxation wash over me. My body was humming. I was fully present and at total peace as I experinced the wonderful healing power of Reiki. The migraine was miraculously gone, and I enjoyed the rest of my afternoon with my magical friend. That healing experience opened a door for me and showed me the path of energy healing.

Since that initial introdution I have learned so much about energy healing. I met and recieved my Reiki attunements with Dori Spondike in Hawaii, several years ago. Dori was an amazing healer. I cannot even begin to express the gratitude I feel for Dori , her teaching, and her kindness. My attunements were very intense and very powerful. I felt and heard my crown chakra crack open. There were rainbows of light and feelings of bliss unlike anything I had ever known. I floated for months.
Reiki is very powerful on many levels. I have now been a Reiki practitioner for several years. I have shared Reiki with people suffering from cancer, heartbreak, depression, body pain, broken bones, headaches, migranes, and anxiety. Reiki truly does soothe and heal. I give Reiki sessions often. I give myself Reiki often too. . Reiki is pure light and love. ~tiff
