As described in my first post, through the Reiki treatment I received I had opened up a little bit in terms of energy healing but was still skeptical about dedicating myself more to the subject, even though I felt deep inside that I had so much curiosity to learn and explore more about it.
Unfortunately, at the time of the Reiki treatment, I was at a stage in my life where I was very concerned about what people might think of me which meant that I didn't dare to stand up for my interests and passions, which secretly involved spirituality and alternative healing methods. Instead, by pursuing a socially respectable career path, I hoped to fill a void of love and acceptance that I had carried within me since childhood.
So now I was dedicating myself to my studies in science, hoping that I could fill that gap, aspiring to take big steps in this field, seeing myself doing studies in laboratories, and so on. But was what I thought I had to be really in line with what fulfilled me?
I realized during my studies, which dealt a lot with immunology, oncology, biochemistry, and the development of diseases, that one component was extremely missing - the human being behind the illness. The person with feelings, desires, and needs - which needs more than only medical advice and a prescription for a medicine.
But what was I supposed to do?
Secretly and with little knowledge of my surroundings, I educated myself more and more in chakra systems, how meditation is seen on a neuroscientific level, and alternative healing methods. My heart dedicated itself in small steps to what it had always longed for - a combination of natural science and working with people in an intimate, personal way.
I found the last momentum out of solely dedicating myself to science and trusting in the power of reiki and energy healing techniques at the beginning of this year.
After graduating from university I fell into a big hole. I didn't know what to do with myself. I was completely drained and realized that my degree did not give me the happiness I had hoped for (because it was an ego thought). Meanwhile, a voice inside me told me that I would want to go to Bali again. I followed my inner voice's wish and traveled to Bali, and through some strings of events I finally signed up for a reiki training. It was this voice that I wanted to suppress for a long time that told me to do it and I finally listened - luckily.
The course and the teaching of Reiki gave me exactly the part that I had been missing for years in my university studies - to work with humans incorporating mental and physical states of being, feelings, traumas, and much more.
I can say with all my heart that Reiki is an enrichment for my life (and in some ways for everybody's life). Since completing my training in this area my life has turned around 180 degrees. Today I also know that I can live out my scientific passion concerning Reiki, as there are now more and more studies in this area and it is used in many hospitals.
My heart's desire is now to pass on Reiki and to show people the incredible healing power that this universal energy has in store for us and what it is capable of doing in our lives. So if you feel addressed and would like to try Reiki for yourself or if you already know Reiki and would like to have a Reiki treatment, please contact me by email or Whats App.
I look forward to hearing from you.
From Bali with love,
Leonie
