Have any of you had a Reiki treatment, learnt Reiki or have acquaintances who are into Reiki?

I studied under the master, 'Nasty Nick' Bateman, during the first series of Big Brother.

My friend just enrolled in a course. She says it cured her.What would you like to know about it? Email me off-list (or is that off-board?), I'll try to get you two in contact if you like.

a fiend of my practices it and its been a great help with quite a few illnesses. Its very relaxing and has lead to a marked improvement in many ills I've suffered. Marcus also comment on how good it is for him as well.

I've done Reiki I and I'm trying to decide whether or not to do Reiki II, and if so, when. I was interested to know whether other people were familiar with Reiki or had opinions about it's worthiness - I tend to socialise with airy-fairy-fringe-dwellers who all think it's a very important part of life but I wasn't sure what the average (okay, above average) person thought about it.

Does anyone think it's a crock?

Yes, I think it's a crock. Or, more specifically, I think that 'channeling healing energies' is a crock. There may be something else going on in what, after all, appears to be a fairly harmless and pleasant process, but most of what I've read about reiki nudges the bolloxometer into the red.

Hmm, I believe in the energy thing because I can feel it, to me that's (empirical) proof that it exists. However, I do not believe in the "attunements" or whatever they call the "symbols" that they do in Reiki. I reckon that is superstishus muck.

My energy related skills did not improve through learning Reiki, although my confidence in so far as it being enough just to place my hands on someone to help them was greatly increased.

Ethan, do you like it/believe it? Does she ever use it with you?
