All White

My first Reiki patient of the night was a man recovering from colon surgery.  He showed me his incision so I could see that he wasn't really bleeding any more, just a little bit.... wince.  He was very interested in getting his bowels in motion so he knew that he didn't have to have an addition surgery to repair what wasn't healing back together.

It was his first Reiki experience and I explained to him a little bit about the chakras - energy wheels of the body.  I mentioned that his surgery was in the chakra called the Solar Plexus which is the seat of personal power.  I asked him if he had a meditation practice because that would help him to relax and get the most of the session.  He said that he used to meditate quite often and was even able to get to a place of all white light, but that he hadn't done that in many months.  I told him that he didn't have to get to any place and that just following his breath would be exactly what would help him relax.

When I started his head was very warm.  Sometimes the thinking mind can create a lot of energetic heat.  He didn't release all of the heat, but he allowed some to pass out.  When I reached his stomach, across the room I saw Jesus was present.  He was not actively engaged in the session, but was there provide an energy of assistance.  I held my hand here for quite some time and the energy was strong there as well as the resistance to movement in the Solar Plexus.  I did sense some give and heard some gurgling.

I moved to the leg and feet.  At his feet I saw a lotus flower with a long stamen.  I saw a bouquet of flowers at his hip as well as I traveled down.  When I returned to his stomach on the other side, Jesus stood behind me and put his arm over mine to double the strength of the energy.  He also bowed down to give the man an embrace and said I said to him 'Don't you want to just hug them all?'  He nodded.  I felt a wash of connection with all that is. I couldn't help but tear up.

Jesus also talked to me about my role in this life.  He mentioned how I would continue the work of Mary Magdalene and I might not always understand the reaction I got from my partners.  He noted that this work would bring up lessons that were not meant for a novice.  

Our conversation ended and he left.  I placed my hand on the patient's shoulder and over his heart.  He had a faint green color around his heart, but cracks of deeper green started to emerge.  At one point, he coughed and his hands turned into fists and I thought for sure he was awake, but he wasn't.  I closed up the treatment and left the room to write up my notes.  He was sleeping soundly with a wee bit of snoring... ;)  <3 EE
