When I first became a Reiki Master/Teacher, I had a backlog of people waiting to become Reiki Healers, waiting for me to get my final certification so I could train them. Within the space of a couple months I had attuned everyone waiting, a couple more months I attuned a bunch more and then after a few more, brought some of them to level two, held quite a few Reiki Practioner's Shares, it was heavenly. I was so busy teaching new Healers I began to miss just doing Reiki on them... and the paradox was that most of the people I attuned were my Reiki clients so my beautiful private sessions with them sort of ended too. (Big lesson to Reiki Master Teachers: make it clear to your students that they can still come to you for Reiki healing, just because you are attuned doesn't mean you don't need to get Reiki yourselves sometime...)
I hadn't held a workshop since April, until last Thursday. However, my Reiki appointments have picked back up. But I can't seem to find a "class" full of souls that want to become Healers. I had a woman waiting... and waiting... until I finally decided to just do her workshop with just her. It was heavenly! I realized how much I missed sharing the gift of Reiki and watching someone feel the energy in their hands for the very first time.
It was so relaxing to just sit quietly, teaching the story of Dr. Usui, the founder of Reiki. The Attunement was very powerful, I felt so connected to my new student, she had an amazing experience. We brought my daughter in for the actual hands on teaching-- watching my students face light up when she realized that she could feel the heat and changes in the energy field was beautiful! "I can feel it!!! Already!!!", she said. I chuckled, "yep, once you got it, you got it... there's no building up to it necessary!" I might just do some more one on one workshops-- it was that relaxing.
I guess this is all just a lesson in balance. (Isn't everything?) I need an equal amount of private Reiki appointments, private & group Reiki workshops and group Reiki shares to feel completely fulfilled LOL... Oh yeah, and an equal amount of self Reiki meditation to round it all out. Sometimes I get so busy with yoga and SoulCollage that I feel like I don't spend enough time with Reiki, and I can tell when I do it, how much I miss it.
Wanna be a Healer? Want Reiki? Let me know-- I'd love to help you out :)

Sounds like I need to help you out here. I don't think being a healer is my bag, but being a recipient is.
