Am I intuitive enough to learn Reiki?
Many people who are interested in Reiki have asked me: ‘am I intuitive enough to learn Reiki?’ Some people have been afraid that Reiki won’t work for them if they are not intuitive or psychic enough. I’m here to tell you, you don’t need to have amazing intuition or see spirits to do Reiki. Reiki is designed as an incredibly easy and accessible healing modality, that literally ANYONE can do!
Will Reiki work for me?
The short answer is yes! Reiki is simply energy, and since we are all energy beings, we all have access to this beautiful healing energy source. Once you are attuned to Reiki energy (by a Reiki Master), you will be able to unlock and tap into this amazing energy source. Reiki works for everyone, you don’t have to have special abilities or powers to practice Reiki.
Reiki opens up your intuition
If you are concerned that you might not be intuitive enough to do Reiki, never fear! Reiki will actually help you open up your intuition. It helps you to become more aware of your own energy. You’ll learn how to discern between your energy, and the energy of others. Even people who have very blocked intuition can practice Reiki! As long as you have a positive intention, that is the most important thing. The ability to read someone’s energy field or pick up on intuitive information is secondary, and absolutely not necessary for healing to take place.
I don’t have any psychic abilities
Don’t worry! It is also not necessary to have any psychic abilities to practice Reiki. The foundation of Reiki is a positive intent to heal. Reiki is unconditional love – if you have an intention to help the person or thing you are sending Reiki energy to, your intention and energy will lead the way. Over time with practice, you will find that your psychic abilities will naturally open up. This is absolutely something that can be trained and taught, and everyone has the ability to open up their psychic abilities.
I’m too intuitive and pick up on everything!
There are many sensitive souls, who are hyper intuitive and pick up on everyone else’s emotions and energy! I know this can be extremely overwhelming and exhausting. If this is you, you might be thinking Reiki would be too much. In truth, Reiki does actually open you up even more. But with proper training, education and practice, you can learn the tools you need to protect your energy. You don’t need to be at the mercy of everyone else’s energy and emotions all the time. It IS possible to clear, cleanse and protect your energy from external influences.
I don’t want to become a professional Reiki healer
Learning Reiki doesn’t have to mean you need to become a professional Reiki healer. Most people learn Reiki because they are drawn to energy healing and are curious to know more. They want to learn how energy really works, and how to protect themselves. Doing a Reiki Course is really about empowering yourself to take back control of your own energy field. It’s a fun, enjoyable and educational weekend, where you get to meet other like-minded people, and explore the magic of Reiki!
