QUESTION
Dear Sufi,
Hello I am FMW (Initials of name). Please help me. I find myself professionally going through a bad phase. I am Master of Reiki, but I have not done anything with my work in this field and it does not seem to flow. I'v tried advertising and appears not to draw people.It does not work at all and I cannot remember it all-starting to forget it.
I have no difficulty to speak my mind. Getting started is hard for me. I look forward to expressing thanks. Excuse me but I do not know English and
have difficulty learning.
a warm FWA

ANSWER:
Dear FWA,
I will do my best to answer your questions from my own experience, which I have had and understand. I did my best to translate the parts that did not translate well. There are many ways to teach others about Reiki. I myself tried to advertise in the beginning and found that it never drew people to my healing practice. What I found was that Reiki has its own way of delivering to you your clients in the most unusual ways, and you must simply be open to it and surrender to how Reiki wants to deliver clients to you. Reiki is always teaching us things about ourself and in this case Reiki is teaching you patience and how to surrender to letting the energy flow to you instead of pursuing it. Even just offering a class or healing sessions and then letting it go. Hold no attacchment to whether a class or clientelle comes. Simply hold healing intentions to help others and then wait for it. It will happen my sister in light!
What you need to do is ask the universe to begin delivering clients to you and then be patient to wait for it to happen. If you are having a certain struggle with this process, look within to find out what it is your are struggling with and see that it is the work telling you what to focus on within yourself. We are never done learning and healing and you will also learn many things from your clients at the same time you are teaching them.
If you would like to see more interpretation of my work with Reiki see the link 'Published Articles' for my Reiki articles. I highly recommend that you also join International Association of Reiki Professionals (www.iarpreiki.org) and become a member and you will get the free magazine The Reiki Times with other peoples experiences with Reiki. As far as being worried about forgetting Reiki, healing and loving intention comes from within and you cannot do Reiki wrong if your intention is to heal others and yourself. Revert back to your Reiki manual to freshen up or search online. I also have Reiki attunement courses to refresh yourself. It is under the link, Healing courses. I hope that helps. Love & Light! Sufi
