My First Reike Experience

Hey everyone, I want to start off by a disclaimer: I am not a writer or blogger.I am a regular gal who just wants to share some of her experiences in the hopes of helping or opening some minds of others.Alrighty, fear aside... I'll begin.
After I graduated college I was put over 100 drugs which really disturbed my entire system in the hopes of curing my chronic migraines. I could barely hold a fork let alone move my tongue to talk, had to move back home, was having bowl movements maybe every 3 weeks for 1-1/2 years + so on.
Period- not happening. Sleep non-existent.
The Pain of course was beyond anything I could imagine. Even while experiencing it, my mind couldn't comprehend what my body was going through.
My Poor family, friends+ neighbors tried finding every cure (Western Medicine) could offer.
This is where my Energy Healing began.
When your entire nervous system is in shock due to meds, stress+ of course PAIN, ENERGY becomes this fascinating tool that becomes apparent.
I grew up pretty straight edge.
Western Medicine +Tactics were what I grew up on.
Stomach Virus- Antibiotics
ADHD- Addheral
Period Cramps- Motrin
Can't Sleep- Tyelnol PM
You get the idea.
So when someone entered a room. My entire body would cripple, it was almost like their body+ presence had this physical cloud of force that was too much for me. @ this stage in time, 2012- everything crippled me.
The sound of Grass Tussling
Leaves hitting against each other
My own voice when I talked.
Most importantly, I was in denial about physically feeling energy.
I felt the pain of the energy in the world on my back. Stress as well. I felt and still do a sound--- it's almost like it surges through specific spots @ the exact time+rhythm to create this lovely pain which makes no sense + becomes a crippling migraine. It's happening to me right now from me typing these words on the keyboard.
I'll get into Sound healing in another Blog post.
So.. my first experience with Reike began one Saturday when some friends of our family came over. As you all know, Migraines are undoubtedly unlimited+ countless, can really break your psyche down. This was one of those days that I felt hopeful+ a bit stronger. Maybe I got a good nights sleep, or the birds weren't too loud, who knows. Actually come to think of it, it was raining outside. The barametric pressure must have broken, helping ease my pain.
I still could barely stand or talk, eat.. but something was different.
The entire family sat near me. Usually people's voices+ as mentioned before presence would make me feel puky, thick, exhausted. I need to also explain something. I am a very social being. I love people, I love life. So these migraines--- as you all know, can give the illusion you don't want to be somewhere, are being anti- social when really there's no place mentally you'd rather be than laughing+ sharing quality time with them.
This day, again I'm still baffled by... these 3 family members: a son+ 2 parents didn't hurt me. It was almost as if their energy selves knew to withdraw + not put out as much radiation+ wavelengths others do. They knew this was a special meeting.
They came with the Intention to Heal.
I was there with the Intention to Be Healed.
My parents who are normally Straight Edge+ not into this sort of thing, They knew we were running out of Traditional Options.
I am so grateful for this emotional breakthrough for all of us.
So the breakdown of my 1st Non-professional Chill AF Reike Session went like this:
Everyone sat around me while I laid on the couch.
Each family member raised their hands in different spots along my body.
Ontop of my head, stomach, feet etc.
This experience @ the time, I wasn't very knowledgeable about how energy healing works let alone but I knew I felt things.
The family members felt heat and energy coming out of me.
They tried putting some in me.
Then I passed out+ my Dad carry me upstairs.
I then slept for the longest nap I can remember+ was exhausted the next 2 days.
After those 2 days passed, I felt somehow a bit better. Stronger, could move my arms a bit to hold myself up.
This was the beginning of my Energy Adventure.
After that odd but Enlightening Rainy Saturday Reike Family Session, I spiritually+ emotionally knew it was time to Physically do some more Energy work. I started Practicing on Myself, seeing if I put my hands above this spot, what would it do?Why is heat coming out of this spot, but causing a thick build up somewhere else it's traveled to? Can I break apart this thickness+ relieve pain? Can I help period cramps when my period naturally came after many years of Birth Control Madness. (I do suffer from Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome) Can I feel other people's energy + move it away from myself because it was too much/painful for me?
The answer to all these questions are a Big Beautiful : YESSSS!!!!
I know my enthusiasm right now is a bit much, but Reike, Energy Healing has saved Me in so many ways the past couple of years, everyone I know who used to not be open to this now is because they see the positive affects it can have on our Health, Psyche+ of course Energy. My father+ mother started practicing it on me while I would sit @ the Dinner table, it was a New form of entertainment but also... they saw this Energy Healing Healed!
I am so grateful for this family+ want to end this Blog by telling you guys:
When it comes to Coping+ Healing our Migraines:
Nothing is Weird or Abnormal anymore.
Do whatever you need to do.
This Site as well, I want you guys to feel like you can write back any ideas you have, your experiences with reike, methods you use... anything guys.
The more resources, friends, ideas+ open minds we have - the stronger a fight we have to get through the physical side of these migraines.
The following post will include my 1st Practicing Professional Reike Healing Experience.
Have a Good Day!
Positive Vibes your Way!
