Do you find the idea of daily self Reiki practice daunting? Maybe it’s because you don’t realize how self-renewing it is. And maybe this First degree Reiki report will inspire you to give daily self Reiki a try. I hope so!
The Joy of Reiki Self Practice
by Timothy Clayton
I’ve never been a very disciplined person. I dive into things with great passion, only to have my new hobby drop away after a week or two.
But I’ve noticed something has shifted. I’m in serious danger of becoming a disciplined person who can make commitments. Why has this happened? I’ve been practicing self Reiki every day since I took the First Degree Reiki training four months ago.
Over the recent holidays, I reinforced my commitment to include 30 minutes of continuous practice every day, even if I didn’t feel like it or feel any response. It had never occurred to me to do something every day even if I didn’t want to in the moment!
I rattled off several days in a row of excellent Reiki self-treatment — nice, long practice sessions with time for contemplation at the end. Then one day, my phone and family lured me out of bed before I had time for self-treatment.
I felt normal in the morning, but by afternoon I noticed something was off. I didn’t feel my customary zest and excitement about life. I didn’t feel inherently happy and joyous. Something was missing.
It took a while to realize the missing element was my Reiki self-treatment. After an ah-ha moment, I slipped away for some Reiki practice and re-connected with the primal joy I had been missing.
I’m still astonished that daily Reiki self practice has such a huge positive impact on my day, but observing my day without Reiki has convinced all parts of myself. Being happy, energized, and loving life is my normal—and I want to keep things that way.
To my disbelief, I’ve finally committed to something in my life. I practiced Reiki last night before I went to bed, and I will do it again tonight.
Here’s to a lifetime of balance, happiness, and primal joy.
