Old question revisited

Plese excuse me, I've haven't read prior post for awhile, and realized right now I should have looked backed a bit.

As I was sitting here today, the old question came back to me..."do we really need to be attuned to anything to be effective in helping othrs and in energy work?

For years I used my own energy with the reiki hand positions. I never tired and I pretty much got the same results. The only difference came when I started to work with the angelic realm.

Why did I go to the Teacher level?. I think I thought it would give me credentials and learn more to teach others.

So do we really need to be attuned or is that an ego thing?

Excuse me this high blood meds is makeing me "goofier" than normal

Well I do not practice reiki, and I am not attuned, so does this make me a heathen?? q9  q5  I can move energy through my hands if needed....through space if needed....it is up to me what I do with what I got.... q2   I probably have now offended many reiki practioners but such is life I've been offending people for years LOL q9

No offense..I do not believe one "has" to be attuned" to anything to be able to send or to heal.  Call me a selective Reiki like I was once called a selective catholic but I make it work for me.  Love my Reiki and now that I have been doing ti for so long I realize it is much like what I did in times past, similar to you Cats.  But the attunements so allow us our "credentials" so we can help and heal, my goal is to teach and guide.

I agree with Sage about not needing attunements to heal - but I do believe that attunements strenthen and purify the energy of the channeller.

Well said Gill.  I know many fine healers of all modalities.  Within each is their own fine "attunement" to enhance and focus that energy modality.  I am looking forward to my master's attunement this year, will it make me a better healer?  I think I will remain the same but may enhance it.  My wish is to share and guide and teach any who wish it.

I believe the attunement cleans and realigns the chakras so we can channel healing energy easier.
The symbols, although are not necessary, I find give power to the healing energy too.
Love mia xx

I agree with Gillie and Mia.........

Everyone has the capacity to heal.....some have more ability than others. And attunement cleans, aligns, cleans, and purifies......."Opens up the Channel".

Did your mother need anything speical when she put her hand over that scrubbed knee
Put her arm around you for that broken heart

Healing is natural and some people go further when fine tuning it
To heal requires words, deeds and actions that require only love

To take it a step further requires the right reasons
Not always a way to earn money

Oooh Hermie I hated it when my mum rubbed my sore knee, she made it hurt even more!

And as for telling her my heart was broken oh no, never, she would be more upset than me and I would end up comforting her!

My mum is the queen of empaths.

Love mia xxx

Empaths are sensitive to TV, videos, movies, news and broadcasts. Violence or emotional dramas depicting shocking scenes of physical or emotional pain inflicted on adults, children or animals can bring an empath easily to tears. At times, they may feel physically ill or choke back the tears. Some empaths will struggle to comprehend any such cruelty, and will have grave difficulty in expressing themselves in the face of another's ignorance, closed-mindedness and obvious lack of compassion. They simply cannot justify the suffering they feel and see.

That's my mum :(
The arguments we have!
I don't watch tv, except comedy. I tell her not to watch grrr
But, she is slowly beginning to understand.
I gave her The Secret, she asks me questions :)
She is slowly learning ;)

Mia that is a start i havent even got that far yet with my mum. q9

i dreamed last night that i was about to be levetated of the floor by spirit and my mum walked into the room, i used all my strength the to stay put cause i knew my mum wouldnt understand.
mia

I talked to my mum about angels, bought he Diana Coopers book A Little Light on Angels.
Then a dear friend/soul brother sent me Angel Speake, I lent it to mum.
Now she channels angels, well Archangel Uriel.
She is coming on leaps and bounds since my dad passed over in February.
I expect too much of her really lol
Love mia xx

Sulis, your dream.

Your mum in your dream means something.

If you were about to levetate and your mum appears.

Why did she walk in?

There is an answer somewhere.

Yes... q13   I seek and await my master's attunement this year, "not" to make me a better healer, but to have the credation to be able to show others "how" if they wish it and to attune them "if they desire it".  Not get rich?  Ha ha never happen, to fulfill something within me that needs to nurture and share.  A bit of money does exchange hands at times but many times it is an exchange of energies or a gift.

the feeling i had was that i was doing something i shouldnt be doing, in my mums eyes at least.

there was excitement 'yes, yes finally something is going to happen'

then my mum walked in and i felt anxiety - thankfully it has never happened to me but could you imagine how you would feel if your mum walked in on you having sex  q45 well i dont think the feeling was that bad but certainly along those lines.

my thoughts were ' no no no this musnt happen'

in the same dream my mum sis and i were near the beach and the a huge wave came in taking peoples chairs where they had been eating, the tide went way way out like it would just before a tsunami and we started to run away and my mum shouted oooh look whales.

i stopped and looked back there was about 8 whales all jumping out of the water and i ran back completing forgeting about the tsunami.

my mum is complety against religion and as for healing well  q15

and spiritual stuff she just doesnt have time for when you try to talk to her, yet she tells a story very matter of factly about a cousin i dont know of mine that had a priest in to be exersised from poltergeist and how plates were moved across the room.

i heard this story when i was young but had convinced myself over the years that there was apsolutely no way my mum would admit that that could happen, but she told me the story a few months ago so it is true

my mum does not talk about my 'real' father or his family unless under duress.

Oh dear yes, thus why I so rarely watch TV or read a paper..all so doom and gloom and hurts my heart.  I will never forget the energies from 9/11 or Katrina...hurt didn't it?

Tell me Sue, (being nosy) were you ever caught doing something you definitely should not have been?  I was once but not by my mom, his mom and OMG I never ever will forget the anguish and embarrassment. q51

I don't know what this has to do with anything, but I've noticed when I am watching a movie that I get knots in my solar plexus during the parts that tense parts of the movies..YOu know that fight or flight tense feeling..this weekend I had to physically make myself relax...I enjoy watching movies, especially action types and stuff...but now I'm wondering if they are actually good for me or not..lol
