There are many ways to describe a healing practice and we found a wonderful text which says it all:

“The Promise of a Developing Reiki Practice

People coming to you with many different problems, difficulties and illnesses sometimes as a last resort. Watching them leave relaxed, often radiant with joy and new hope. Seeing them improve over time, watching them grow, gain confidence and become more trusting of life. Seeing some make major changes and life adjustments.  Occasionally witnessing miracles.

Feeling the wonder of God`s love pass through you and into another. Sensing the presence of spiritual beings, feeling their touch, knowing they work with you.  Being raised into ever greater levels of joy and peace by simply placing your hands on another. Watching your life grow and develop as your continual immersion in Reiki transforms your attitudes, values and beliefs. Sensing that because of your commitment to help others, beings of light are focusing their love and healing on you and carefully guiding you on your spiritual path. This is the promise of a developing Reiki practice.”  *
