How Reiki Has Changed My Life

I’ve been all over the board recently with posts here at All About The Energy. That is all fine and good because I have many interests inside and outside of Energy Work. I trust you, as readers, enjoy the variety.


Today post is back to the foundational principle of this blog – the positive power of Reiki.

Within all the varying aspects of my life, I am, at heart, a Kundalini Reiki Master and Teacher. This particular form of energy and Energy Work, drives everything else I do. It has changed my life.

What’s Changed?
My Sight: I have seen the invisible power of Reiki at work in my life, the lives of family members and the lives of complete strangers. The healing I have witnessed has caused me to see the physical world in a different way. We are made up of energy. We are surrounded by energy. The Universe is Energy.

My Spiritual Worldview:  Learning Reiki put me in touch with a new group of folks. Starting with my amazing Teacher, Alice Langholt of Reiki Awakening and my participation in the Distance Healing Network, I saw people actively engaged in the Healing Arts.

Through the power of Twitter I was able to meet other Practitioners and students of such fields as Angel Therapy , Quantum Healing , Qi  Gong , Soul Reading ,  and Massage Therapy. I am thankful to each one of these powerful Healers for helping me to see a much deeper and fulfilling spirituality.

My Being-In-The-World:  The German Philosopher Martin Heidegger used the term “being-in-the-world” to redefine such terms as subject, object, consciousness and world. Because of my training in Reiki, and with a new and open spiritual worldview, I now am a different “being” in the world which I live.

I no longer need qualifying terms like “real” versus “unreal” - “seen” versus “unseen” – “conscious” versus “unconscious, “ as if the former of each of these was greater than the latter. I now function as a spiritual being having a human experience.

So What Dickinson – Good For You – Zippity Doo Da!
I write none of this to bring attention to me. I write because each and every day I meet people looking for something spiritually. They are so caught up in the here and now, and so tired of it, that they feel completely unfulfilled, lost and wandering. I’ve talked with them, listened to them and cried with them.

You know who you are.

Reiki changed my life.

What is it that will change yours?

Blessings,
Frank

Such A Privilege

In a recent post I wrote about the need for Energy Workers to be Family First Healers. I count one of the greatest privileges I have as a Reiki Master/Teacher as being a channel of healing for my family and friends. There is no greater joy than seeing the ones you love the most experience the healing power of Reiki energy.

Tonight I had an another honor and privilege. I attuned my wife RuthAnn to Kundalini Reiki Level One. She has been on this journey with me as a supporter, cheerleader and friend. Now, in the days to come, she will progress from being a Reiki student to being my partner and colleague.

Can this Reiki stuff get any better!

Like with healings sessions, everyone "feels" something different during an attunement. Remember, an attunement is passed from a Master to a student so that the student may then pass healing onto others. It also allows the student to self-heal.

As the Reiki energy and light opens the recipient, they may experience tingling, warmth, light, colors, visions or a combination of all these. There is really no set way to describe what you may feel or sense during an attunement. The beauty is found in the individuality.

RuthAnn journaled her experience afterward. I asked her if I could share part of it with you.

Here is part of what she felt or sensed during the attunement:

As I sat in the chair to receive my first attunement, my body was in a relaxed state. Frank placed his hands on my shoulders and within 2 minutes, vibrations were felt strongly in my left forearm. This went on for a few minutes. The vibrations then moved to my spine. Up & down, up & down for maybe 2 more minutes.

When the vibrations ceased, I could no longer feel Frank’s hands on my shoulders, I only felt heat radiating. It was not the heat of hands, it was something different, kinna indescribable to me, a brand new sensation.

Next were waves before my eyes, squiggly line waves. I was then in a state of peace. About halfway through ( I think, I lost track of timing at this point) I felt something coiling up my legs, holding my feet to the floor. It was a grip, not to tight, but tight enough to know I was unable to lift my feet. I tried, yet my toes were stuck to the floor. After a bit, the coiling went up my body, tying me to the chair. It was at this point that I realized it was a vine or a root that was encompassing my body. I did not fight the bondage, but rather let it take me over. I next began seeing flames from my third eye and flashes of color. I am not sure what the colors were, either a dark blue or a dark purple.

I did not feel fear, I somehow sensed that it was okay. I heard Frank leave my back to sit in the chair until my Attunement was completed by me. I am not sure how long it was, but slowly, the vines/roots recoiled from my body, all the way down, releasing my feet and disappearing into the carpet.

Next I felt a surge of energy run up my body from my feet upward to the top of my head.

After it hit the top of my head, I was back to the state of peace. I opened my eyes and turned to Frank, I was a bit wobbly.

I hope this gives you an idea of what a Kundalini Reiki Attunement is like. For me, it was simply an amazing experience to have the privilege and honor to share this wonderful, powerful and life changing energy with my wife. Thank you RuthAnn.

Peace, Love and Light,
Frank

3 Lessons I’ve Learned While Practicing Reiki

I’m sitting here this Saturday morning thinking about all I have learned and experienced on my journey to Kundalini Reiki Master. As I pondered the questions of “Why me?”, Why Reiki?”, “Why now?”, one of my favorite songs came on my Blip.fm account – One by U2.

And I heard these lyrics:

Have you come here for forgiveness?
Have you come to raise the dead?
Have you come here to play Jesus?
To the lepers in your head.

It’s true, I want to help others. I think of myself as a Healer. It's not only what I do, it’s who I am.

But, I’m not playing Jesus. I can't raise the dead.

Lesson #1: Removing your suffering is up to you.

V. Amador puts it this way in “BEing Reiki - “Reiki can heal, can relieve pain, but don’t expect reiki to do the work of removing the conditionings that veil awakening.”

Reiki is a participatory sport. It takes both the Practitioner and the recipient to bring about results.

Lesson #2: Reiki doesn’t require belief. It is.

Whatever doubts and concerns I had in the beginning about Reiki and it’s ability to help and heal have been erased by this truth – “Reiki doesn’t require belief. It is.” (from my Teacher Alice Langholts’ Distance Healing Guidebook ).

Just BE is my mantra. When I AM - healing energy flows.

Lesson #3: Intention is a powerful little sucker!

Just like with the Law of Attraction that is so popular today, with Kundalini Reiki, energy flows with intention. I have no symbols or specific hand positions with this form of Reiki. It is my intention and the intention of the person receiving the energy that brings the healing.

With intention I have seen:

• Back pain ceased
• Insomnia cured (My wife)
• Entities removed
• Toxins cleared (Me)
• Moods enhanced
• Energy restored
• Stress relieved

Intention is powerful.

These are my lessons learned so far in this journey. I look forward to the road ahead.

Grateful,

Frank

Frank Dickinson - Kundalini Reiki Master

I simply cannot believe it! This morning I received my Kundalini Reiki Level 3 or Master Level from my amazing Teacher Alice Langholt of Reiki Awakening.

Now hear me say this right off the bat. Master is a vague and often misunderstood term in this field. Referring to someone as a Master in Reiki conjures up images for some of a person that has reached nirvana and is only loosely associated with us mere humans.

For me, mastering anything is a continual process of growth and discovery. I don’t know everything there is to know about Reiki and all it entails. Here’s a hint: no one does – don’t be fooled.

Master Level is the 3rd and final Level in Kundalini Reiki. I’ve achieved that, and I am happy to be described as a Master. But I will always be digging in the proverbial Reiki garden, discovering new and helpful insights, techniques and teachings.

A few personal notes on the Level 3 Attunement:

• In my minds eye I saw a vision of my body being separated into two distinct sides.
• I felt the energy move up through my middle Chakras ->Solar Plexus->Heart->Throat.
• After this, I felt completely whole.
• All this was given to me in a gentle, subtle way that caused me no fear, but gave me a sense of peace and fulfillment.

Here's the realization that was revealed to me during this time: I don't receive energy through attunements or healings through the WAM, BANG, knock your socks off, Damascus road kind of experience.

I receive it in a very subtle, yet powerful way. I had, and have now a sense of complete acceptance of this. I no longer fight to feel some great explosion of energy and insight. It is how my Higher Self wants me to receive. It teaches me in a way that causes me to have to be very sensitive and focused in order to receive.

I am a very fortunate man to have Kundalini Reiki as a part of my life.

Thanks for listening and stay tuned for new Website developments in the coming days!

Peace, Love and Light,

Frank
