Don’t Practice Outside Your Scope of Practice.

• Don’t write checks you can’t cash!

• Don’t make promises about what Reiki can do or what someone will experience.

• Have integrity.

This has long been my personal definition of the word:

Integrity is what you do when no one else is watching.

What This Means For Practicing Reiki

People want an amazing spiritual experience with Reiki. They want a burning bush moment, to see colors, and to have visions.

But in life, and Reiki, you don’t get what you want—you get what you need.

I don’t make promises I can’t deliver on. I tell you you’re going to feel relaxed, maybe fall asleep, and enjoy experiencing your meditative zone.

Anything above that? Awesome!

It’s Nice to be Pleasantly Surprised by What Transpires in a Reiki Session.

This respects Reiki and the experience of others whom you’re sharing it with. Let people have the space to experience and interpret Reiki as they may—without your influence, bias, or promises made.

This is freedom.

It also takes the pressure off of you for having to “provide” a certain experience or “make good” on a certain expectation.
