Not sure if this is the right thread for this, but I've seen other posts about Reiki, and it also involves thoughts of my T, so here goes...

I've been treating myself a bit while T's been away on vacation - last week, I got a massage. This week, I had my first Reiki session two days ago. And next week, I'm trying acupuncture.

Reiki has really appealed to me, something about unblocking energy in my body just felt right to me - I've been feeling very low in energy over the past several weeks, so I found a reputable practitioner and decided to give it a try. I went in mainly for lower back pain and irregular periods, being more than 3 weeks late this month. After the session, I felt relaxed but tired. My Reiki practitioner told me that she'd had a vision while she performed Reiki on me, it was fascinating - she saw me struggling to pull a wagon with 3 bags of money in it on a hilly dirt road. She said that I easily could've carried the bags of money, but it was almost like I chose to be burdened by pulling the wagon. After finally coming to a flat part of the road, this water suddenly poured on top of me, turning the dirt road into mud. I was completely stuck, and the wagon fell apart. I started to sink into the mud, until it was up to my neck. The Reiki practitioner then told me that there was another me, watching from a different plane up above - I was in a rainforest, eating mangoes, unconcerned about what was happening below, but watching. So back to me stuck in the mud - it was really stuck in 3 areas - my throat (communication), my heart (love), and my stomach (self-esteem). The mud washed away, but then I realized that I was covered in cuts from pulling the wagon along the dirt road. I was then in a box with a high ceiling but narrow walls, and as I walked, the box moved with me. Sunlight started to shine into the box from above, and then steps came into the box - I ascended the steps and joined the other me in the rainforest.

So I didn't know what to think! She told me that I should think about where I'm at in that journey, and she cleared some debris from my aura and suggested that I take a salt bath to get rid of any residue. Now, this is my first foray into the alternative treatments, and I really didn't know what to think or expect, not to mention that her vision had nothing to do with my late period or lower back pain! But wouldn't you know, I got my period the next morning. And as I started to think about her vision, I drew some really incredible parallels with my life journey, and the journey I'm on with my T.

So at around 2:30 AM this morning, I woke up, and one of the issues that I have discussed with T but haven't really dug deep with her yet came up in my mind - I cried on and off, and had a convo with T in my head about it, then finally fell back to sleep at 4:00 AM. Today, I do feel lighter, but I also feel more emotional in general. I want T to come back! I am a bit concerned about what T will think of the Reiki session, but I don't think I should've discussed it with T before doing it. I'm going back to the same practitioner for acupuncture, I felt a connection with her. But I can't believe all this emotion is coming up, and I still have well over a week before I see T!

Okay, thanks for listening... or, rather, reading.
