here’s what other people have said about their Reiki session

The first time I experienced Elizabeth’s Pause, it felt like it was unlocking that part of me that actually could relax. It was like opening up a door to a room I didn’t know was there. Which was huge. –M

I take medication for a life-threatening heart issue. BUT as you can see by the numbers, I’d say my session with you definitely helped. First I felt a very distinct warmth in my heart, then my head. It wasn’t uncomfortable, but I was glad for the breeze. Then I just sobbed. It only lasted a few seconds but I cried hard. Some kind of weight or release I guess. I then felt lighter. A lightness throughout. I never felt any tingling or anything, but I did feel different. –T

i was really restless yesterday during the session and at 4pm my left shoulder really ached. this was actually really good as i had an accupuncture session right after so reiki opened up the ache and the needles made it all go away. –A

i just want you to know how much that session helped me to “tune in” to my dreams, thoughts, and subconscious … and have been able to better remember my dreams since our session together. –M

my breathing got so quiet that it turned into what i call breathing from the inside. at one point tears came. at one point i suddenly smiled and felt great joy. it was just total joy. –T

I was able to relax for the entire hour. What I noticed during the session was the feeling of the energy moving to different parts of my body. I felt heat/discomfort in various areas of my body (not pain exactly, but enough to bring my attention there), followed by a strong tingling sensation (kind of like how it feels when your foot falls asleep), followed by relaxation and lightness, like an exhalation. I remember thinking things like “wow, I hadn’t noticed there was anything going on there” when my attention went to one of my shoulders, etc. It was like a random walk through my body. I think I fell asleep during the session and woke up about 5 minutes after it was finished. An hour or so later, I went to bed and had a great night’s sleep – the best I’ve had in awhile. –C

I think I felt warmth/tingling (like sunlight, but not actually warm) on my forehead, then face/mouth area, then lower. Before I lay down, I had a headache. I was consciously trying to relax for the 20 min or so that I was awake, and am pretty sure the headache disappeared somewhere along the way. –E

My knee hurt so I set the intention for some help there. I was on the phone for the first 10 minutes or so. As I walked back to the couch to continue relaxing, I noticed my knee no longer hurt. Nice! For the rest of the session, there was tingling body parts and my limbs felt heavy. And another really great sleep. –C

I took the hour to just relax and I got into such an amazing zone of relaxation – not asleep but very close twilight kind thing. Wonderful. –D

The multiple sessions works really well. Despite [everything], I was in a perky mood and even set my alarm to get up in time to do some meditation. Getting up early NEVER happens for me. Also, physically, my separated shoulder hurt far less last week than it has since the accident. –C

The first day I felt my energy around a particular project shift. I suddenly actually felt like working on it. It felt easy and effortless. The second day I felt like my love came back. It was gone or hiding or something, and it just came back. It’s hard to describe around that. I just felt a lot of old tension kind of get released. And the third day I was just happy and I felt like things were fun, even though on the outside they shouldn’t have been. It felt playful to work on this work stuff. –K

I was able to relax without distraction for 15 to 20 minutes. Then, my husband came home and was annoyed because I’d forgotten to do something I’d promised to do for him. There was a kind of awareness that his words were talking about what I’d forgotten to do but that the conversation was really about something else. This happens, but I often ignore it and try to unravel it for myself later. I got really, really present to how much it bothers me. And I got present to the fact that this isn’t acceptable to me anymore. So, we talked about it. Finally. And came to a new understanding. –C

There was a sense of comfort and reassurance at knowing that someone out there was focusing energy on me. Even without any result or measurable impact, it made me feel peaceful and nurtured and taken care of to know that my well-being was important to you for the duration of these sessions. I think this was especially meaningful for me because you are such a sweet, kind-hearted, and nurturing spirit. I really felt like I was in good hands. At the start of the first session, I had some swirly energy in my body, especially in my chest, shoulders, and head. Eventually I became so relaxed that I fell asleep. Second session, I didn’t feel the same swirly energy, but at some point I felt some intense warmth in my chest, seemingly at my heart. Otherwise calm and relaxed. Third session, just relaxed and peaceful. Several days after the sessions, I had some pretty significant epiphanies. They were so intense, and had so much to do with my sovereignty. –B
