Many nurses and caregivers used to come see me when I was offering in-person Reiki sessions out of our home. I respect and love all of them so much for what they do for others – day in and day out. They’re amazing people taking care of loved ones – some are family and some are not. All of them shared stories of how over worked and stressed out they were. That’s why they were calling me. They were all familiar with Reiki and knew that they needed the healing benefits. Smart people.
Reiki brought these powerful women some much needed peace of mind. This was before Covid and they were stretched well beyond their means at that time – on all levels. Reiki delivered a peaceful balance that gave these warriors the strength they needed, just to get through the day. I always focused on grounding them and Reiki did the rest.
Care is Love and Love is Reiki. A caregiver who obviously has such an enormous heart will feel Reiki’s glow throughout their body, mind and spirit. Their major focus has to always be on the care of a loved one. Yesterday, today and tomorrow. This can be exhausting on so many levels. This is why caregivers benefit so much from Reiki, because the soothing energy heals physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. And, their daily work is draining on those same levels. It’s a perfect match – Reiki and Caregivers.
When we care so much, it’s important that we are drawing from a full cup. Self-Care. This can be easier said than done. I know. Believe me, I know. Reiki can deliver immediately and I have seen it do amazing things in such a short period of time – both in person and from a distance. If you are a caregiver and could use a boost, please consider Reiki. You’ll be glad that you did.
