Have you ever been bullied? Me too. But Reiki helped me heal. 

Updated: Feb 10

I had the honour of teaching a Reiki II class yesterday – it was a truly beautiful day spent with really genuine, gorgeous people. We talked about so many different things – about how Reiki can help you deepen your intuition, how it can be used to help your loved ones, and how even animals can benefit from Reiki’s healing energy.

 

But then, nearing the end of the day, we delved into how Reiki can help you heal your past.

 

Let’s face it, there’s very few people who don’t have issues or trauma from their past that they’re still trying to process today.

 

In fact, I would say that a large percentage of the people who come to me for healing at Mintaka Reiki in Sandbach are coming because of things that have happened to them in the past that, years or even decades later, they’re still struggling to deal with, or forget, or forgive.

 

In yesterday’s Reiki II class, I asked each of the participants to write down three issues from their past that they’d love to heal – maybe they’d had an argument with a loved one when harsh words were spoken, and they haven’t spoken since. Or maybe they'd done something, and still feel ashamed of their actions? Or maybe years ago they’d been involved in an accident, but still carry the scars and trauma today?


When you take Reiki Training your life changes forever.

My students were about to use their new-found Reiki II skills to start and work on healing those difficult issues from the past, that were still haunting them in the now. Whatever they’d written down in their manuals, however, I assured them that they wouldn’t be asked to reveal anything, and nobody would ever know what it was that was troubling them.

 

Except Reiki, that is.

 

But then one of my students explained that he actually wanted to talk about what had happened to him – and he went on to tell us that when he was at school, he’d been bullied by both fellow pupils and even a teacher!

 

As he spoke, there were tears in his eyes; his pain was so real, and clearly still so present in his life – more than 50 years later.

 

And I knew exactly where he was coming from – because I’ve been bullied, too.

 

But my experiences (yes, sadly, there’s been more than one bully in my life!) weren’t from my childhood. No, I was a fully grown adult and at work when the bullies struck.

 

And believe me, workplace bullying is so debilitating; it undermines your confidence, your self-esteem, it makes you question your worth and second guess your every action. You feel like such a failure.

 

So how did I deal with the bully?

 

Well, always in exactly the same way – I changed my job. The bully won! But you know what, it would eventually happen again – a new job, a new boss, a new bully…

 

But then Reiki came into my life. And everything changed.

 

Reiki is an ancient healing technique that doesn’t just heal physical scars or problems – it works deeply on our mental and emotional traumas, too. And just as my students from yesterday are about to find out, by inviting Reiki to help us release all the emotions and feelings connected to an event in the past that haunts us, you really can heal – and move on.

 

Once upon a time, I would have run a hundred miles in the opposite direction rather than face any of my bullies ever again – that’s how scared and traumatised I was by these women (yes, sadly, my bullies were always women… no such thing as a sisterhood back then, but that’s another Blog…)

 

But you know what, if I was to ever meet any of them again today, I genuinely would be delighted. I’d give them a hug, buy them a coffee, and would be happy to spend time with them asking about how things have been since we last met.

 

I really mean that.

 

I have absolutely no hard feelings and no regrets about what happened to me because of them – because it’s made me the woman I am today, and I’m happy with that woman just as she is!

 

You see, I am a different person today to the person I was back then, when the bullies made me their target. And I can honestly say, hand on heart, that it’s Reiki that’s helped me discover that person, the real me, who no longer (and never will) ever again be bullied, or scared, or feel like a failure. Because I know that I am perfect, just as I am.

 

And so are you.

 

But if you don’t believe me, then consider allowing Reiki to show you the way back to the real you, and get ready to leave the bullies behind for good! Come for a Reiki Treatment in The Cabin, or better still, think about taking a Reiki Training workshop yourself – because I promise you, it’s a day that will change your life forever.




 


Until next week.

Much love,

Denise
