Reiki -believe it or not

Post by Kate »

For someone who considers herself open minded, I am actually a bit of an oaf on any path that takes me off the main road of traditional medecine, as this as how I was brought up, to view any kind of lotions and potions, hand laying on, hypnosis, berries, beans and bubbling cauldons, as hocus pocus. My failure to open up, and possibly my loss.

Anyway, yesterday I went to a Reiki session with english speaking Claudine, who has a little salon on the old Argeles village - Collioure road.

Whilst I admit that I wasnt totally convinced with the first part, in which I picked a card and had my yin and yang explained, the actual treatment itself was a delight. Conforting, relaxing and I could definitely feel the warmth, described by her as energy, seeping into my poor aching old bones. Will definitely do it again and thoroughly recommend it to others. Am I a convert? Hmmmm. think I still have a few leaks in my cynicism which need plugging... but a very relaxing afternoon, and a great present for the partner or friend if he or she has been a bit grumpy or off colour recently.
Claudine charges 50 euros per session, which can take anything up to three hours. Well worth treating yourself.

Keeping your mind open is like keeping a window open. You get a bit of fresh air. However if it's too far open you get a load of rubbish blown in. :)

Enjoy it but don't believe all the gobbledygook.

Of course it is nice to have someone's undivided attention for an extended period. But at €50 a pop, I will stick to meditation: you get your own attention, for nothing.
