One Year Reiki Master/Teacher Journey

It's been one year since I began my Reiki Master/Teacher journey, and the time has gone by so fast! I completed my last class a few weekes ago and I will receive my Master attunement the first weekend of August. I am beyond thrilled to be complete and ready for whatever loving journey I will be led to next once complete. I am doing my best to release any expectations that I have surrounding what may or may not come with this attunement. The hard part is over, I think. I dedicated one year of my life to the study of what it means to be a Reiki teacher, and I may never ever teach an official class, but knowing I can when I get the call is good enough for me. I had no real solid foundational reason behind becoming a Reiki Master/Teacher, meaning I had no aspirations to teach classes, I simply knew it was what I was suppose to do. It was a calling I had never ever felt before. I very rarely ever feel so strongly grounded in a decision, or so unwavering.

I have learned a tremendous amount about myself and my place in this world by going through this journey. Reiki is so much more than a 'hands on healing' modality, it's more than physical hands with energy running through them...last night I kept visualizing this very large bubble around me, and on the outside it was being held by Reiki Masters and Ascended Masters, they were smiling at me, it was really quite beautiful.

Reiki has held a space for me that I was not aware I needed holding. It opened doors that I thought would remain closed until the next lifetime, and it prepared me to receive love like I never knew possible. Being a witness to your own personal growth, witnessing your own transformation is life changing. I have watched people in my life change in many ways because I changed, I recognized the reflections that they were, and wether they are aware of the concept of mirrors, it doesn't matter, they changed too. I have witnessed so many challenging mirrors literal leave my life in one way or another, and it happened in such a peaceful and loving way. Reiki has become a way of life for me, it is a personal philosophy, and I have found the purity of truth in it.

What's to come after receiving the honored and esteemed gift of the Master attunement, I really do not know, I can only say I know it to be good, to be beautiful, powerful, and life changing. I know that life will not be the same after this, it's not even the same now. I have collected a foundational education in this life school, I just turned 30 a couple weeks ago (still can't believe it), and I have felt this dramatic change coming for the last several months. I usually have a great intuition about what is changing, but with this, I really have no idea, I know that whatever it is, I know that Reiki will be there with it's graceful and easeful way to see me through.

I thank you all who have been here on this journey with me from the beginning. This blog began with me sharing my experiences with my Reiki Master Class, and it has and will continue to shift into other topics as they come into my life.

...Til we meet again, stay blessed.
