Allo everyone!
A few months ago someone suggested that I see a spiritualist who performs reiki and crystal healing. So I went to see her, and I had about 6 healings done. Erm, at the time it felt nice and I felt like my burdens were gone...but then I realised that could have been because I fell asleep while she was doing the healing and I woke up feeling refreshed. Good ol' sleepy time.
I also bought a few crystals- including rose quartz, citrine and an amethyst...I didn't buy it knowing what the crystals represent...I just went to a new-age shop and "felt the energies" erm...something like that...and eventually I managed to choose a pendant containing all these stones...which later on, after doing research, I managed to figure out that the stones represent the things that I lack in my life (eg self-esteem, love...etc etc). Coincidence? Probably.
I quit seeing her, because I don't think it is real. I'm not sure though...Could it be this whole was more to do with the power of the mind? Or is there really that spiritual world?
I was wondering if anyone here has experienced the "energies"? Does anyone strictly believe in this spiritual world? If you do, can you tell me why and share a personal experience (only if you want to though)? Do crystals really contain this power and energy within itself?
I have a good friend who is a reiki master (semi big deal in the reiki world) and I have never told her this, but I think it's a load of crap.
She has given me reiki treatments and yes you do feel good for a little while but the effects are not long lasting in my opinion. She's given me what probably equates to hundreds of dollars of treatments for free and all I can say is, I'm really glad I didn't pay for them.
I think reiki is a bit like chinese food - you feel great at the time, but 30 minutes later, the satisfaction disappears.
If you are seeking some natural treatments that really do have some impact you'll notice, go get some acupuncture.
