My first steps on the path of Reiki

[cynni]

About a month ago I started a course to become a Reiki Master through Civas. Its a home course with 3 initiations/practice days. The course is very well written and I'm happy with it so far. I take this course in combination with aura/chakra healing

Well the reading (an extensive online test, really ^^) says the following:

Damanique, you are radiating positive energy from your:

Fifth Chakra

This is the chakra located at the top of your throat. The fifth chakra represents honesty and truth. Radiating positive energy from your fifth chakra indicates that you've cultivated higher wisdom concerning the important life lessons associated with this energy center. You're apt to feel a more burning need than others do to speak the truth, treat people with respect, and act with integrity.

(...)

Your fourth chakra is a level 1.8 out of 10. This means that right now, your fourth chakra appears to be disrupted. As a result, you're likely to be plagued with feelings of anger about how events in your life have transpired or about what others have done to you. You also may be feeling fearful and emotionally unstable.

(...)

Your seventh chakra is a level 1.6 out of 10. This means that by and large, you seem unable to live in the present. This is likely due, at least in part, to being disconnected from your higher spiritual self. Perhaps you fear spiritual issues or don't really believe that a spirit world could exist. If this is your view, try to open your mind to the possibility of a higher plane. People with blocked seventh chakra energy seem to always be either revisiting their past or looking ahead to the future.

Yeah, it's a pretty extensive report, this is just a small bit. However they renewed the site so you can't cheat into the paid reports anymore XD

Hmmm.... I dont know if an online test is the way to go. However what you could try is to open the two chakras that need attention a little wider. Just visualise your chakras as flowers, for the 5th chakra a light blue one and for the 5th a violet or white one. Visualise that the flower opens its petals some more. If you do this your chakras will stop shutting themselves. However if you feel uncomfy in the days afterwards, it can be you have opened them up too much. You can simply close them a bit again in the same way.

You do need to practice on this bit though, so dont expect miracles the first time youre trying ;)

Thanks, I'll look into it!

When it comes to chakras, energy healing, or thinks like meditation I simply don't have the focus. My thoughts ALWAYS drift off - and believe me, I've tried. Meditation is *supposed* to clear your mind... but it's like I just can't get my thoughts to calm down.

The only thing that works is alcohol which is considerably less healthy than meditation XD

I have that too, meditating isnt easy. However I found that for me visualising is a lot more easier. You focus on one thing you want to achieve instead of just clearing your mind into nothingness ;)
