I met an acquaintance last 2004 thru a classmate from Instituto Cervantes and met again for the first time today to help me with my dad's cancer and from carrying the weight of the world on my shoulder. She introduced me to another person thru an acquaintance as well and both of us met this new person, a Reiki master.
I had my first glimpse and session of this wonderful and meditative art of spiritual healing. The Reiki master told me that I had a lot weight to unload and to learn to love and take care of myself aside from taking care of others. She also mentioned that she is having this vibes regarding a child... an inner child. She asked questions about my childhood and my infancy and we ruled out that it all started from that point and told me I should have at least 6 sessions with her in her condo in Ayala Avenue, Makati City. It's a layer by layer issue that needs to be addressed slowly because it could be cathartic is done all in one seating. After my first session, I feel lighter.
My assignment is to light a candle and meditate by staring at the flames for 5 minutes. This is the first process of the healing technique by teaching me how to practice and learn meditation easily before we go to the harder stuffs. During this session, she told me to obtain a pendant or statue of St. Raphael the archangel and to pray to him and ask for assistance. He's also the pratron of the troubled, travellers, happy meetings, blind, nurses, physicians, etc... I told her recently I got a miniature statue from a friend (Raffi) as a Christmas gift. She said, that's a good sign.

Note:
What is Reiki?
Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It is administered by "laying on hands" and is based on the idea that an unsee "life force energy" flows through us and is what causes us to be alive. If one's "life force energy" is low, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy.
The word Reiki is made of two Japanese words - Rei which means "God's Wisdom or the Higher Power" and Ki which is "life force energy". So Reiki is actually "spiritually guided life force energy."
A treatment feels like a wonderful glowing radiance that flows through and around you. Reiki treats the whole person including body, emotions, mind and spirit creating many beneficial effects that include relaxation and feelings of peace, security and wellbeing. Many have reported miraculous results.
Reiki is a simple, natural and safe method of spiritual healing and self-improvement that everyone can use. It has been effective in helping virtually every known illness and malady and always creates a beneficial effect. It also works in conjunction with all other medical or therapeutic techniques to relieve side effects and promote recovery.
An amazinlgy simple technique to learn, the ability to use Reiki is not taught in the usual sense, but is transferred to the student during a Reiki Class. This ability is passed on during an "attunement" given by a Reiki master and allows the student to tap into an unlimited supply of "life force energy" to improve one's health and enhance the quality of life.
Its use is not dependent on one's intellectual capacity or spiritual development and therefore is available to everyone. It has been successfully taught to thousands of people of all ages and backgrounds.
While Reiki is spiritual in nature, it is not a religion. It has no dogma, and there is nothing you must believe in order to learn and use Reiki. In fact, Reiki is not dependent on belief at all and will work whether you believe in it or not. Because Reiki comes from God, many people find that using Reiki puts them more in touch with the experience of their religion rather than having only an intellectual concept of it.
While Reiki is not a religion, it is still important to live and act in a way that promotes harmony with others. Dr. Mikao Usui, the founder of the Reiki system of natural healing, recommended that one practice certain simple ethical ideals to promote peace and harmonry, which are nearly universal across all cultures.
