I taught Reiki 1 today. I had two students, but it was a good combination.
One is a nurse whose hospital is pushing for its employees to learn alternative healthcare methods. This is good as the medical community needs to open itself up to, and combine alternative methods.
My other student had come in months ago (August 9, 2005) for a treatment. He had been barely able to walk. Instead of massage he had wanted Reiki. It took away his pain and he was able to walk. Ever since, he has been looking forward to being able to take a class.
They both took to the healing energies and the process real well. At the end, they were both very happy they had taken the class, and were looking forward to going out and practicing.
