Various feedback and reviews

Posted on by

It’s always interesting for me to get feedback from my clients after their treatments. It can give you an idea of the range of results you might experience after a treatment, though at the same time, I hope it doesn’t set up particular expectations. Everyone’s experience is different!

Here’s a recent sampling:

“I feel like I am floating at the moment”

“In the days after the session, I felt kind of tired. I slept well. During the day I had some strong emotions… After a few days, I did feel more balanced. Doing well now!”

“Feeling great today!!”

“It was definitely a meditative experience. That feeling stayed with me for one to two days but has left now… but hopefully, one day I would like to feel the energy and other sensations friends report experiencing.”

“After the reiki, I felt like my body was waking up after a very long sleep”

“The session achieved the ‘re-set’ I was hoping for, so I’ve been feeling and sleeping better since.”

“I felt very much more centred and slower today. I have more clarity.”

“I find Reiki very magical, I am a strong believer that we all have the power to heal ourselves and each other, sometimes we just need a helping hand.”

“Despite it being a hectic week with a fair amount of travel and disrupted routine my energy levels feel good. I don’t seem to have the same sluggish energy level at the moment that I was experiencing.”

“I definitely felt a lightening up and good feeling.”

Emotional issues

Posted on by

I received some very special feedback a while ago which I’d like to share with you:

“I have to tell you, you have helped to save my sanity. And I believe you have turned my life around.

Thank you.

The healing session itself released a whole ocean of stress, and replaced it with peace and love. Your insightful and thoughtful observations before and after the healing also really clarified the situation for me, and calmed me. I felt the healing release my parasitical fears, and let my ego out of the way for a while. I’m very grateful for that… because something then happened which felt quite miraculous.”

How grateful I feel to take part in people’s healings like this.

I hope that posting this shows the potential of what clients receive from a treatment, rather than setting up expectations for miraculous results. Everyone’s treatment will be different! But still, it’s a good thing when something as powerful as this happens, and good to share it with you!

Reiki fixes knees!

Posted on by

The first time that one of my reiki treatments fixed a knee problem was for a client who came in to try reiki in general, to see what would happen, and not for anything specific. She certainly hadn’t planned to fix her knee, which she’d hurt only a day or two before at a picnic with friends. Still, she was hobbling a bit when she arrived.

As soon as the treatment finished, she got off the table and said, excitedly, ‘my knee feels better’ and started to walk quickly back and forth in the room, too quickly, I thought! Slow down, we don’t want to push our luck!

Another client, I only heard about four months after the treatment, when she sent her partner for a session. He told me that reiki had, surprisingly, fixed a long-term knee issue. She wrote to me that:

‘I was really surprised. I had a bad knee before I got the reiki done and when you went over my knees, I felt lots of energy and sad emotions which then continued for the rest of the session. I noticed though the next day in work, my knees weren’t sore anymore and then in yoga I could do poses that I used to not be able to do. It’s crazy how it just was fixed, I had been to an osteopath about it and he said my hips are out of line and I had tight hamstrings and it was affecting my knee. So the pain was a physical thing so I’m baffled that the reiki cured it but very happy about it!’

And then another client wrote just recently, three weeks after her treatment:

‘One really interesting thing to note is that I used to have recurring pain in my right knee during to a horse riding incident, which would make itself known throughout the day and was considerably worse in winter. The reason for this pain, such as maybe a torn ligament or something, never really came up in any x-rays or ultrasounds but since this reiki treatment, this pain has completely disappeared! I noticed the day after the treatment that there was no trace of any pain whatsoever. However, I was curious to see how long it would last and whether the pain would come back, but it’s now been over 3 weeks and the pain has completely gone. I have no doubt in my mind that this healing was because of reiki. It was pretty astonishing! Before reiki, I couldn’t do simple activities such as pick something up from the ground or sit cross-legged without feeling the pain in my right knee and now I don’t even have to think twice about this! Thank you so much!’

My conclusion: reiki can fix knee problems! It’s not something that could be guaranteed, but maybe it’s worth a try. Thanks to my clients for letting me use their words above.

Not that kind of reiki!

Posted on by

As I’ve been explaining to clients, there are a lot of different kinds of reiki out there. Students of Mikao Usui, the founder of the Reiki system, added their own variations of reiki to their teaching, and then from there, with many generations of new students, some reiki practitioners went on to found their own methods and styles of reiki.

Still other practitioners combine what they’ve learned about reiki with other practices or skills: from massage to crystal healing and often clairvoyance and psychic advice. Reiki, particularly in the United States, became associated with New Age practices (and subsequently made fun of in popular media: there were jokes about reiki in Magic Mike 2!). People often combine reiki with reference to the Indian belief in chakras, the seven centres of spiritual power in the human body.

My teacher, Frans Stiene, and the International House of Reiki, aim at focusing on reiki as it was practised and taught by the founder, Usui, to get back to its purest form.

And I’ve followed Frans’s lead…

Lately, different clients have told me about other reiki treatments they’ve had. During one, a client had to remove his shirt, and had crystals laid on him. During another treatment, the reiki practitioner talked during the whole treatment. What I hear often is reiki practitioners who give messages (psychic or spiritual) or diagnoses (saying what part of the body they think is blocked, or if there are imbalances).

So, I thought it might be useful to say: I don’t do that.

  • When you come to the session, you remain fully clothed (except for your shoes) and if it’s cold, or you feel more comfortable, I can cover you with a blanket.
  • If you really have the need to speak during the treatment, then that’s fine (though I think I’ve only had one client talk a bit during a treatment out of nearly 400 treatments), but I will remain quiet once the treatment starts. I think it’s important to not get in the way of the treatment with chatter or noise.
  • The biggest thing is that I don’t do diagnoses, or give messages. What’s important is not what I feel, but what you feel, during the treatment and in the days afterwards. I actually think it can be harmful if a practitioner tells someone that they have a blockage in their heart chakra, or they are imbalanced. How do they really know that, and what does it all mean? Reiki shouldn’t be about practitioners projecting our ideas, assumptions and beliefs onto a client; it is about you taking from the treatment what you need at the time, and then observing how that plays out afterwards.

And a final P.S.: if a person says they are doing reiki and asks you to remove articles of clothing (except for your shoes)… don’t do it. You might consider questioning them… or reporting them.

Protecting yourself from negative and busy energy

Posted on by

One of my clients noted  ‘I am extremely sensitive to the energy around me. I often feel other people’s energy in my physical body, and get overwhelmed, anxious and drained in noisy or busy environments’

She asked how to protect herself from this energy but also shared that guilt tended to make her sensitive to people’s negative energy, and releasing that guilt was helpful.

So, in some ways, I kind of divide this into two situations, the general clamour and noise of city living, and when you are either around people who are negative or they actually aim that energy towards you.

I think there are a number of different approaches that you can take.

1.

When you know you will be, or if you are in those busy and noisy environments, close your eyes momentarily and envision a bubble of healing energy around you, a positive bubble, and imagine that noise and negative vibrations cannot or have a harder time getting through that bubble.

The mind is a powerful thing.

However, this might strike some people as mumbo jumbo and certainly won’t work if you think it’s silly. In that case, what about some detachment

2

One thing that can help when faced with negative energy is to be objective and distant. It helped me a lot in both my working life and my personal life when instead of reacting to co-workers’ bad energy, I thought, at a distance, I wonder why they’re acting that way. Maybe they had a bad morning or didn’t get enough sleep. Maybe they’re worried about someone close to them.

It’s important to try not to take it personally when someone is in a bad mood, and you certainly shouldn’t think it might be your fault. Even if someone might be projecting their anger onto you, this might not be right or justified or anything you can do about. Adopt the slogan, ‘Your crisis is not my problem’.

It can be challenging to try to create distance and objectivity, especially since negative people can sometimes enjoy trying to get a reaction or invading the space of someone who is sensitive or kind… but it is a useful thing to work towards.

Does all of this sound too complicated? A final suggestion is the most practical…

3.

Get earplugs or headphones. I HATE the contemporary arrangements of open plan offices. Way too noisy.

Whenever possible, play your favourite relaxing music and use it try to block out noisy work or other environments!

Panic Attacks!

Posted on by

Clients come for reiki for all reasons, but recently a client came because she’d been suffering panic attacks. I had to admit that it’s not something that I was familiar with, but boy, did it sound terrible: the physical reaction and anxiety and sometimes feeling almost out of one’s body completely.

By coincidence (or was it?), a friend came for dinner that night. I mentioned the panic attacks and she said that she had had them in the past too, and that she found a video very useful from Dr Bill Pettit.

In the video, Dr Pettit describes that panic attacks are physical reactions, and that they can pass, or get worse if you allow your body to react to it. If you can notice what’s happening, then most of the attack will pass within five minutes. He says, ‘try not to feed it’.

The other interesting and useful thing is that he says ‘a panic attack is your friend’. It’s actually letting you know how you’re feeling and allowing you to examine your thoughts.

So, if one is coming on, then try to notice what’s happening, find a behaviour to not exacerbate the attack, and then ride it out.

My client found the video very useful indeed, and what’s more, after the reiki treatment, she hasn’t been having attacks anymore, and is very happy about it. She said, ‘I’m just so amazed by this.’

I’m not an expert in panic attacks but this really did feel like useful information to share.

Reviews and Testimonials: Reiki Surry Hills

Posted on by

I noticed recently that my reviews page on this website is one of the most read pages. That makes sense. People who are considering a treatment will want to know the possible effects, and whether this Reiki Surry Hills guy is trustworthy and good.

It’s pretty unwieldy to have all of my reviews on the one page, so I am creating this blog post to collect more reviews and testimonials (and will have a link to it from the reviews page):

‘Amazing experience and so happy that I received relief immediately after the treatment as I was suffering from stress related painful migraines. I feel so relaxed, happy and completely zen, balanced and recharged.’

‘When I woke up the day after my reiki session with Andy, I felt like all my negative thoughts and emotions were millions of miles away and I was able to finally let things go. It would be an understatement to say it was amazing… It was absolutely wonderful…’

I’m glad I found you.’

‘I felt really grounded and calm after my session.’

‘I felt great after the treatment… re-energized’

‘Slept better than I have in ages. I feel more balanced and just lighter somehow.’

‘I found it really interesting how I felt wide awake the whole time, but my mind, rather than racing (which it normally does) was very purposefully moving from challenge to challenge, and creating ways in which to solve them.  I felt very focused and calm during this process.’

‘I certainly have noticed a great improvement with my anxiety. Following the treatment I felt my mind was clear and it’s helped me gain extra clarity.’

‘It really felt like everything that wasn’t serving me was just “moved on”

‘I really liked my first Reiki session. It made me feel so calm, relaxed and lighter during the session and even after… I had a very deep sleep that night and woke up feeling quite rejuvenated… To be honest, I’m not sure if I could feel its effect after day 2 but I’m still amazed with the overall experience.’

‘I’ve felt quite calm and more balanced after my treatment. I did feel quite floaty afterwards but also had a great sleep that night…  I’m finding myself in a more positive frame of mind after the treatment, so my dealings with stresses seem not as chaotic as they have been…  Thanks again for the treatment, and I’m sure I’ll be in touch when I need another one!’

‘I thoroughly enjoyed my experience. To be honest afterwards I felt quite tired and had a very stressful day. But today I feel so much more relaxed and like some of the pain of my relationship has lifted, that sick feeling in my tummy is much lighter.’

‘I really enjoyed the reiki session, I feel really good and noticed I am not over thinking things which I sometime do at work. I’m Not allowing myself to get stressed out.’

‘When I came into you yesterday I was stressed .. After the treatment I came out feeling extremely relaxed and had a very good day.  I also sleepy extremely well last night and when I woke up I had a feeling in happiness inside me instead of the feeling of anxiety… My day so far has been relaxed and good.’

‘Yesterday I was super productive, steaming through everything I had to get done. Today I’ve been a bit whacked out and lazy… So hopefully will find a happy medium over the next few days.’

‘Everything felt relaxed and free and that feeling went into the night and over the few days.’

‘ I’m a happy girl. Feeling completely back to normal and even a better version of myself. The pain is gone, I’m sleeping better, and I feel stronger emotionally… Immediately after the treatment I was so aware of my senses and felt like I was walking on the moon. I think I felt naturally high it was so nice and that feeling has subsided since… Several hours later I felt very drained and exhausted and the following day I had a very mild sore throat for a short time… I feel great now and I intend to come back soon to maintain this new found inner strength.’

‘The experience was amazing! I feel more connected with myself!’

‘After the treatment I did feel a sense of relief and going home that evening I did sleep well and have done so apart from this morning when I began to feel a lil anxious again… In terms of my confidence and negative thoughts I did feel like something left me that day (only way I can describe it) that I let go.’

‘I’ve been feeling much better and sleeping well after the treatment.’

‘Ya I’m feeling really good now but the day or two after the reiki I felt terrible, I was anxious and really short fussed and snappy… I’m feeling amazing now just really happy with my life and were I’m at… 
Thank you again for the reiki it was really beautiful and important for me too I think! I have also noticed my my knees have been really good and they were really sore before the reiki and when you touched them during the reiki I felt lots of energy.’

‘I feel the same, not much difference, I slept good which is great but still have anxiety and have it near bad today but don’t know why….. Thanks for checking up.’

‘I am definitely feeling more relaxed after the session on Saturday. I think the reiki sessions would be a great long-term investment for my personal wellbeing.’

‘I definitely felt a shift in my energy for sure. not such a heavy burden weighing on my shoulders… I will definitely come back for more Reiki in the future. It can only be a positive thing.’

‘I didn’t feel anything huge changed in the next few days, more so I felt super relaxed and a bit spacy – kinda like a natural drug :)’

‘Last night I felt great, like I didn’t have a care in the world, and that all this baggage and heavy energy I suppose I’d be carrying around was gone. Later in the evening I was able to communicate more calmly and clearly with my partner about things I’d been bottling up or hadn’t been able to express properly in the past.’

‘I have definitely been feeling better and somewhat lighter. Yes, I would agree that I have been feeling a sense of lightness to my thinking the last couple of days. Another way to explain it, it is in the last couple of days I feel like I have not been getting so caught up in my thoughts – perhaps thats why you were feeling heat when touching my head! … Overall I definitely enjoyed the process. I really appreciated your warm and gentle nature, you made me feel very comfortable.’

‘I really enjoyed receiving the reiki treatment from you. I found afterwards my mind was clear when it would usually be running with thoughts. I also felt as though my vision was clear.. the best way I can think to describe it is to say my eyes/vision was a dirty windscreen which was cleaned.. might sound a bit strange but that’s how it felt.’

‘I had a good Thursday evening, but found sleep hard to come by the next three nights… However I am continuing to feel clearer in my head, and also more energy in my physical self.’

‘I’m feeling good today, energized and I loved my hour out. I did feel deeply relaxed yesterday and it was so special. Loving having an hour out for myself.’

‘After the session I still felt a little anxious and sore… On a plus side, today I feel surprisingly ok given I’ve had no sleep, of course tired but not nearly as bad as I was expecting for such a bad night. I have also let go of my anger and disappointment that I had before the session…’

‘The treatment has definitely had some profound impact, I’m alternating between feeling energized and really drained…  I can still feel little streams of energy running through me and I do feel like I’ve experienced some sort of a shift…  I’m looking forward to seeing how this feels over the next week, and how it settles.’

‘Am feeling so much more grounded & connected to the person I know and am.’

‘With the energy I felt, I definitely felt something surge through my body – almost like a light vibration…’

‘I am feeling more centred emotionally which is nice – I had the flu when I came to you , I woke up yesterday feeling not as sick which was nice… Really enjoyed the treatment. I hope to come again shortly.’

‘I loved it… thank you again for the treatment, I have felt amazing since I walked out of your front door!’

‘I still feel great! There is a lot of emotional stuff/fears coming up but I am able to work through it and love the process even if it feels like a roller coaster right now 🙂 But I am sure I wouldn’t have been able to do it without your help.’

‘ I feel a great sense of piece & relief. Still a bit stiff & sore but that’s ok, I am dealing with that. Intuitively I know your reiki treatment accelerated the process for me to get to this stage. Andy, I feel blessed to have met such a professional & gifted healer like yourself, especially during this part of my journey.’

‘I have been feeling a little more grounded and focused – certainly focused on my health with a greater resolution to do right by my body.’

‘I loved my treatment. I felt very centred and focused for a few days after. Really helped me to realise that I’m on the right path.’

‘Yesterday afternoon I did notice I had a strong feeling of “lightness” in my mood. Definitely positive. That’s continued through to now.’

‘I felt quite light and free when I walked out of your amazing place in Sydney.’

‘I wanted to firstly thank you for my reiki treatment and although it was my first it won’t be my last. My results were nothing short of impressive and include:
 
–          Feeling happy
–          Feeling of Wellbeing
–          Clearer in my thoughts
–          More clarity at work
–          More energised

‘I actually had a very deep sleep on night after the treatment, which as I mentioned I generally don’t sleep very well.’

‘After my second treatment I felt really relaxed and slept well again… I’ve felt really positive and energetic over the past few days… I think apart from the physical sensation of having more energy I feel more ‘clear’ … I feel really great after the treatment – I think the word that would sum up the feeling would be ‘content’.’

‘During the session I felt very relaxed, safe and centred, I also felt my sinus clear when you put your hands near my face. It’s not something that’s easily articulated but I felt my energy open during the session as I drifted in and out of sleep. I definitely felt my energy was very open straight after our session and I took some time to be alone in a quiet space to feel the effects of the session. I felt I wanted to be alone in nature and near water… Since [the treatment], I’ve been feeling very connected and present, and also very tired which usually happens after I have a shift or release… and I’ve been able to connect with myself more easily than usual.’

‘Reiki has done good to me… I’m still having some mild problems with falling asleep, but there are no thoughts, no fear… I’m really calm and relaxed, but just only little bit excited, but nothing that I experienced before reiki. You have helped me to get my energy flowing again and I’m just so amazed by this…’

Reiki metaphors: describing reiki

Posted on by

cimg3549A few comments from clients lately made me think of how we use metaphors.

I think because the effects of reiki and the feelings experienced during a treatment are so unusual that it’s quite hard to articulate what exactly is happening.

And metaphors, using something unrelated to refer to something else, can be useful in life and reiki, proving us with more clarity or useful understanding.

When I have my hands on different parts of a client’s body, I know what it feels like, but when trying to describe it, I often come up short. Usually, I feel warmth, but sometimes that warmth is hot, or light, or has a bit of electricity and charge mixed in. And when a client says it felt hot, and I think it felt hot, I still don’t know if we’re describing the same energy.

The woman who a regular client, E., used to get reiki treatments from used the metaphor of our lives as cups that are overfilled with thoughts and activities and worries. Reiki, she said, is like punching a hole in the cup so that you let out enough so that instead of overflowing, you can manage on a day-to-day basis what’s in your cup!

Meanwhile, a recent client told me that he felt his vision was like a dirty windscreen, but after the treatment, it was clear.

Sometimes, when I’ve had a treatment, what it feels like most of all is like sitting in a nice, warm bath!

One of my favourite reiki metaphors comes from my teacher Frans Steine which is advice on how, as a reiki practitioner, I should give treatments. He said that we should like a sheet of clean white paper. As soon as you write on it, or just put the smallest mark or dot, it is not longer the same. So, instead of putting an expectation on how the treatment should be, or imagining in advance what healing I want to occur or what will occur, I should be like that clean sheet of paper to have the best effects for a treatment.

Even if both I and a client set the intention that the client should receive what it is that she or he needs at this time, I think that still allows the paper to be pretty blank!

In any case, metaphors are useful for reiki but more important is how you feel during the treatment and what effects you notice afterwards.

What are your favourite reiki metaphors? Feel free to share them here!

How clients find me! Reiki Surry Hills

Posted on by
img_1637

I love how clients find me.

It seems mysterious but I suppose it’s not. After all, my website is pretty easy to find on Google. The closest train station to me is Central. There are a lot of people who live or work near Surry Hills.

But I still find it a bit magical. There are quite a few other reiki practitioners in Sydney (I’ve been working my way up the google rankings, and at the moment am halfway down the second page!).

So, it does require clients to find me somehow. During these last busy months, I’ve found that I’ve been getting good word of mouth, where clients are referring me to their friends, or even enthusiastically giving their friends treatments as gifts. One client treated two of his staff members. Another client sent her lawyer for a treatment. And another brought not one but both of her sisters!

I also have been building up a nice group of return clients. As you’ll know if you come for a treatment, I always send a follow-up email, and sometimes two, and try to keep in touch. At the same time, my clients are able to notice the positive changes and benefits for themselves, and then make the time to come in again when it feels right to have another treatment.

Most of my clients come from Google searches, and to add to that, a fair number have come in because of the positive reviews (thanks reviewers!). I can see that these clients are happy to do some research, and they want to make sure if they come in for a treatment that it’s a practice that is trusted and receives good feedback. I myself wouldn’t trust a business as much if they don’t have any reviews at all, and at the same time, I’ve noticed at least one other reiki business that has fake reviews (all the same language but different names of reviewers!). But I think people can spot fake reviews pretty easily.

I spend so much time on Facebook in my personal life that I thought that I might get clients from my Facebook page, but to tell the truth, I’m not sure if anyone’s ever come through Facebook, though I’ve had some enquiries.

A number of people come because it’s the most convenient location for them, since it’s pretty much walking distance from Potts Point, Darlinghurst, Redfern and even the city. Some clients have been visiting Sydney and staying in accommodation (or having meetings) close by). One client lives farther away but combines a treatment with visiting her parents who live closeby! But a recent client decided to treat herself to a few hours in the city and came all the way from the Shire.

Finally, it’s nice to know that clients come because they’ve visited my webpage and get a good feel from it. I’ve had a number of clients say that they liked the vibe of the site, or that they’d visited other reiki websites and didn’t really click with either the way reiki was described, or the reiki practitioners themselves. It’s not to say that one reiki practitioner will be better than another, but certainly if you like the energy that you get from my website (and Facebook page), then you’ll hopefully also like my energy in person. It’s important when having a treatment to be able to feel comfortable and safe.

In any case, however you find me, I’m glad! I look forward to seeing you for your next reiki treatment!

September has been a nicely busy month for reiki treatments!

Here is some of the feedback that I’ve received recently:

‘I’m glad I found you.’

‘I felt really grounded and calm after my session.’

‘I felt great after the treatment… re-energized’

‘Slept better than I have in ages. I feel more balanced and just lighter somehow.’

‘I found it really interesting how I felt wide awake the whole time, but my mind, rather than racing (which it normally does) was very purposefully moving from challenge to challenge, and creating ways in which to solve them.  I felt very focused and calm during this process.’

‘I certainly have noticed a great improvement with my anxiety. Following the treatment I felt my mind was clear and it’s helped me gain extra clarity.’

‘It really felt like everything that wasn’t serving me was just “moved on”‘

Clients come from all over Sydney to see me, and I’ve also had clients who are visiting Sydney from Melbourne, Brisbane and the Gold Coast come and see me while they’re here for business, conferences or meeting families. While it’s easiest to get to me from the CBD, Darlinghurst, Paddington, Kings Cross, Redfern and Potts Point, I’m pretty easy to get to from anywhere in Sydney.
