I know YOU get this, but when some people ask me how I got started in Reiki, I tell them about my dog. Not everyone gets the connection. Ginger was one of my first teachers many years ago when she needed me to help her get through diabetes and then cancer. We managed to do both (without chemo, radiation, or other conventional treatments). Though she did require surgery to remove her spleen at age 12 1/2
years, we knew we were in for a long journey . . . and then I learned about Reiki. The combination of Reiki, diet, supplements, and detoxification likely saved her - and me - as I learned the skills I needed to work with her particular needs.
Of course there's more to the story. We got to keep Ginger until she was 14 years old, without cancer and nearly free of needing insulin. Those are two diseases from which many people and animals don't usually HEAL. But that's not the point of the story.
Ginger LAUNCHED me.
Up until then, I counted on my intellect, my biology background and extensive education, to confront and solve problems as they presented themselves. I was missing the point of LIFE and LIVING INTUITIVELY. Though Ginger started me on my path, REIKI became the path through which I developed my skills and remembered my soul's contract.
I had to let go of restrictions, heal my wounds, and learn new skills.
Now you can, too.
