Hi friends,
20 minutes after
I updated my previous article, I got a text message from my good old AML asking
“so, does it mean you have been up to no good again?”
Charming! What does he mean by “again”?
I work for
silly hours and have no life during weekdays but the reason why I had been super
busy even in weekend was, I did something rather exciting and something useful.
I went to
Reiki Healing Lessons in London at the end of August, went shopping for new
shoes (Oh yeah!) for the little madam who now takes size 3 and went to the elocution
lesson last weekend.
I will talk
about this elocution lesson when I see you next time. It had been my secret
ambition to pronounce “width” and “wool” properly. I think I am getting there
but still struggling to say the latter word.
No, you
cannot ask me to say it. I absolutely refuse to take your calls for that!!
Let’s focus
on the Reiki Lessons. That is more enchanting.
My dear
friend in London, whom I know for more than 15 years, got hooked first. She
told me to contact her when I feel stressed out, so she can practice Remote
Reiki on me. However, it was months ago and I forgot about the message until
quite recently.
In the middle
of August, I was at the peak of my stress, suffering from sleeping
disorder for days and felt really exhausted. I suddenly remembered her message
and contacted her for Reiki Healing.
It was late
Friday night before the bank holiday weekend. It was ridiculous timing to
bother people and, when manners and etiquette are concerned, I am normally a gigantic
matron of them, aren’t I? However, my ladies and gentlemen, I did contact her
after 22:00 breaking my old policies. I was that desperate!
Dear KT was
very kind and she immediately agreed to send Reiki to me and guess what! It
worked brilliantly!! She told me to lie down and wait quietly. Nothing happened
for few minutes but suddenly I felt something. It was rush of energy and I
swear to God, I saw a cream coloured tartlet-like “something” in the air!
Few days
later, I felt much better, so I phoned her to report my miraculous recovery.
Whilst we were talking, it shocked me that she used exactly the same word I
thought on the day I received the Reiki through herself. Furthermore, she
mentioned about the cream coloured something before I said it!
OMG. Off
course, it was my turn to be totally hooked and wanted to learn Reiki. You know
what I am doing for living and I like what I am doing. I have no intention to be a
healer but I wanted the skill for self-healing and self-protection to sustain
my career in the stressful world I reside.
When things
happen, they happen at the same time.
I asked her
where she learnt Reiki. She said her master, Hiroco Ohmura, the founder of Medical Reiki was visiting London in that very
week!!
I
immediately thought it was telling me something. I do not believe in “coincidence”,
I believe that everything happens with reasons.
Off course,
I asked KT if her master was holding the lessons for a complete novice and the
answer was yes. Then, my little expedition from a sleepy Warwickshire village to
the Smoke.
The venue
was one of the learners’ private house and just like the owner, it was very
stylish. I sensed she is similar age to myself but she looked much younger and I
found her very charming.
Reiki Master
was a lady with serine air around her. Yes, it was “serine” which popped out in
my mind when I met her. I was little nervous in the stylish house when smart looking
ladies welcomed me. In my private life, there are only horses around my place, unless
otherwise I dare to step out from the farm, I see no people, needless to mention good looking stylish
ones!
However, once
they started talking, the image changed in a more pleasant way. The Reiki Master
was simply a delightful person with good sense of humour. Very witty yet very
sensible at the same time. My kind of lady, definitely.
There are 5
ladies (plus me) and 1 man in the beginner’s class and 4 of the ladies and I stayed
to take the afternoon lesson for the 2nd stage. There
are 4 more ladies joined for the afternoon lesson. There were 11 ladies in
total including the master and the lady of the house. All of them were lovely and
I really enjoyed myself with them.
There was a
lady from France who was sitting next to me. Although she is older than
me, she was such a cute and likable person. Two fabulous ladies,who were sitting in front
of me, are, I presume, younger than me. One said she has just started working
after 2.5 years career break and another one was working as a practitioner of
Alexander technique. As I was with them from the morning session and we sat
closely, naturally I talked with them most.
The ladies
who joined us in the afternoon were also attractive people. No
offence to anyone in my village, but it seems that ladies are maintaining
rather well in London. It reminded me the story of “the town mouse and the
country mouse”. Although I felt slightly dowdy, I was still a happy country mouse
with kind souls.
The lesson
wasn’t cheap at my private standard (although I say “only a million” at work.) but
it was almost the same amount I just received from the insurance company. (ref:
the accident in March) Again, I thought
it was telling me something.
The lessons
were simply amazing and the experience was quite something. I learnt a lot through the sessions and
practice with the delightful master but the simplest yet the most important
learning for me on the day was its 5 principles;
Just for today,
I will not be angry.
Just for
today, I will not worry.
Just for
today, I will be grateful.
Just for
today, I will work honestly.
Just for
today, I will be kind to everyone and everything.
