A strange Reiki session through the chakras

“Nessa” (not her real name) came to me for a Reiki Chakra Balancing. This consists of literally palpating (feeling with my hands) the seven main chakras (energy centers) and discovering which ones are out of balance compared to the rest, then healing them with Reiki until they are in balance with the rest. Nessa explained that she felt the need to keep her balance, which is why she booked the session.

I feel the chakras in the aura, the electromagnetic field of the body. There is wisdom handed down from ancient times as to what an imbalance in any of the chakras might indicate. This wisdom is still relevant today. The distance, the touch and the gaze of the chakras guide me. Then I tell the client, if he has chosen to be told, which chakras are out of balance and what may be due. Then you can do that very important part of a Reiki session; participate in your own healing. This gives the client power and control over their lives, and puts them behind the wheel on their healing journey. It is very important to empower the customer. Reiki can be a totally passive session, but it is actually best with at least some client participation. And Nessa certainly did.

I felt two imbalances. These were in the sacral chakra and the solar plexus chakra. Nessa nodded over the sacral chakra, as she had been feeling some blockages there for a while. I explained that it could be digestive issues, as she had told me that she has some food intolerances, or it could mean that she emotionally doesn’t fit in or doesn’t belong. She agreed and said it probably had to do with her job, as well as where she lived. She intends to move to a different part of the city where she feels she belongs and where she used to live. After healing that imbalance, I could clearly see a beautiful orange glowing in her sacral chakra.

Next, I went to the solar plexus chakra. After she felt healed, I suddenly saw the skin through my mind’s eye, under her clothes, like a pinkish beige, not the milk chocolate brown that was her flawless skin elsewhere. I was surprised, as nowhere in the meticulous notes I took before the session was vitiligo mentioned. I didn’t say anything and hid the look of surprise on my face, as some vitiligo clients feel embarrassed about it. Suddenly she burst into tears, wept well and … The skin I saw in my mind’s eye turned the same perfect color as the rest of her skin! Then he started to smile. I realized that the color and the subsequent change had been due to some energy blockage that had just been released, so I asked her permission to share, and explained that it could be a sensitive topic. She gave her permission and we both laughed, because for all intents and purposes, she was a very confident-looking woman, who looked comfortable with herself and sure of her identity.

I continued the healing, with all the usual things that happen during a Reiki session. When we finished, Nessa took some water, sat down, and tried to make sense of the session. She said this was the most she had ever felt in a Reiki session before, and felt that it was her choice to focus on balancing the chakras that made the difference.

Nessa laughed afterward. “People always tell me ‘you’re black on the outside and white on the inside,’ and I don’t know what that means,” he said. We laugh out loud as it really is a silly and outdated concept and comment. She prefers dating white guys, but we all have preferences when it comes to how our partner looks. I mean, really, nobody flinches when a white woman prefers to date white men. So everything is very silly. Silly, outdated, but somehow it had been relevant to Nessa about her sense of identity, ego, will, and any of the other qualities related to the Solar Plexus chakra. I say “had” not “have” as any energy disruption that you had had in your Solar Plexus during the Reiki Chakra healing was gone. It no longer existed.

Thank you Nessa for allowing me to share your story, to give others an idea of ​​how the chakras can be a great gateway to healing, and that we don’t need psychotherapy or even know what caused an energy blockage. He was gone, and that was it.

Hope this helps deepen your understanding of Reiki through the chakras a bit more, whether you are new to Reiki or an experienced Reiki teacher.
