Are you the High Priestess of Reiki? Do you do things no one else can do, tell clients secrets no one else knows? Maybe you have special powers.
Or maybe you have professional boundary issues.
Huh?
Do you hang out with your clients? Develop social relationships with them? Maybe you're popular. Or maybe you have boundary issues.
Are you there to listen, support, and facilitate health? Or are you there because you need to be needed: your clients make you feel powerful and special. Who does most of the talking during the Reiki session: you or your client? Do you interrupt your client to share your visions and messages, or do you listen to the client describe images and impressions?
A professional boundary: that's the line between a helping relationship and a co-dependent one.
Is your practice about your ego or your client's health? Please be careful. Examine your practice. Make 2012 a time to improve your therapeutic skills. Go back to school. Study therapeutic communication techniques and professional ethics.
Use silence. Listen, and reflect back what you hear from your clients. Support their interpretations of their own visions: their individual journeys.
Reiki practice stimulates spiritual growth in the energy of love and light. Ethical and competent Reiki practice between a practitioner and a client should be a therapeutic relationship, where the practitioner helps the client achieve optimal health. It's about helping a person realize his or her own powerful potential.
Let's lighten up in 2012.
