This is a follow-up post to What Reiki Training Classes Can Do You For You.
Because even with the countless benefits of taking an in-person or online Reiki class, you should know that there are some things that won’t be solved solely by taking the course and receiving the attunement.
Now, we are not saying not to take a Reiki class. Quite the contrary! The whole world should be attuned to Reiki. However, we have seen a phenomenon recently with healing modalities such as Reiki where people love the feeling of feeling good, but deny and suppress any bad feelings as being “not of the light”.
This can become dangerous, as literally everyone has negative feelings and beliefs that could stand to be healed. And it makes sense why we do this, too, because who in their right minds wants to feel bad?
However, covering up negative beliefs and ignoring them with healing modalities like Reiki will never heal those wounds. In order to truly heal, we must uncover them and deal with them so they can truly get better.
Taking a Reiki class and receiving an attunement will give you the opportunity to look at your issues. The intelligent Reiki energy will stir up those emotions. However, it is still up to you to look at them and see them for what they truly are. Emotions caused by beliefs about yourself and the world around you that you formed when you were a child.
Since our rational mind doesn’t really form until we reach the age of 7, a lot of the beliefs you hold were created before you had the ability to reason. Therefore, you assumed that everything that happened was your fault, or that the world was a certain way because of your experiences.
Therefore, you should never blame yourself for holding these beliefs. You are doing the best you can. We all are.
At the same time, however, you are being given a gift when your issues move from your subconscious mind to your conscious mind. Deal with them, and your life will be so much better for it. You’ll see.
So, remember, while Reiki training classes are life-changing and life-affirming and all that jazz, there is one thing they cannot do: heal you of their own accord. Reiki classes and training programs can assist you in the process, but only you can heal yourself. So why not do it?
