Testimonials and Reiki experiences
"When Susan asked me to describe my Reiki experience I discovered how hard it is to put it in words...During the treatment I felt as though I was in another world, tranquil almost like floating on air. Afterwards I was completely relaxed. I had this lovely feeling of warmth and well being. It stayed with me for sometime. I can't wait for my next session." Suzanne B
"I had a very sore hip for years… just a few treatments from Susan and I have actually forgotten about the hip… Susan is one of the most powerful healers I have ever experienced…" Rita Burke
"I have been fighting some fairly serious health issues over the last year or so. Therefore, although I am sceptical about a lot of the various health treatments, I let myself be talked into having Susan Jennings do a Reiki treatment on me prior to going into, and after coming out of, my last surgery – and I am really glad I did. I didn’t know what to expect and while I definitely felt heat from Susan’s hands at various points over my body during the course of the treatment – there was no pain and the experience was very relaxing. I believe that the treatments have helped my healing, and I intend to continue with them on a regular basis for the foreseeable future." DJR
Taking the Bite out of the Insect Bite
Insect bites are itchy, sore and annoying but when they become infected they are painful and spread dangerously. One of my regular clients mentioned she had this nasty red bite on the front of her leg. There was an angry looking sting or bite mark in the middle of a hot red circle, which was spreading both up and down her leg. During her general treatment I spent some extra time directing Reiki energy to her leg. The bite was very hot and sucked the healing energy from my hands. The redness diminished and the itchiness subsided even before she left the office. The next day she called to say the area had faded to pale pink, it was a quarter the size and was no longer itchy or painful.
Thank you Doris for giving me permission to tell your story. First published in January issue of Susan's Reiki News.
Being somewhat "hyper" (think Type A personality), I asked Susan before starting Reiki treatments with her whether it could help me to relax and sleep better. Unfortunately, however tired I may be, my mind starts becoming overactive as soon as I go to bed. It then takes a long time before I fall asleep. Being a light sleeper I also tend to wake up during the night and it can take a long time to go back to sleep. After Susan explained what Reiki is and can do, I was hopeful that it would be beneficial. It certainly would not be harmful.
Even after the first Reiki treatment I noticed how relaxed I felt. After several treatments from Susan I noticed that I was feeling much calmer and able to go to sleep more easily the night after the treatment. Needless to say, I have made sure that all my Reiki treatments are late in the afternoon! From personal experience, it seems that the positive effects build up on subsequent treatments, rather in the way that going for massage therapy on a regular basis helps. DL
In December 2009 I asked Susan if taking the Reiki level 1 training would be helpful in allowing me to help myself to relax and sleep better. The idea was to reinforce the Reiki treatments given by Susan. Susan thought that it was a good idea so I took level 1 training with her recently. Rather surprisingly, I felt energized after the training. Some hours later however, I felt very tired, went to bed early, and had a good night's sleep. Even after waking up during the night I fell asleep again quickly (and that is unusual). Since Reiki treatments tend to leave me feeling very relaxed and calm I have been working on myself when getting ready for bed. And yes, the usual mental "chatter" is significantly reduced. I now look forward to taking the Reiki Level 2 training with Susan to learn some further techniques to help myself.
One final point: Susan herself has a calm and positive energy so it is easy to relax with her. I feel that I can trust her and that is important. DL
