"Intellectual healing is done with words. However, emotions are
felt by the body. For emotional healing to occur, one must process &
resolve pain-filled experiences and re-integrate mind and body. Reiki
helps a person to access and describe, then resolve emotional responses
to traumas felt by the body. This process is essential for healing from
painful experiences that occurred before one had the words or concepts
to deal with them, and/or were so overwhelming and confusing one is
unable to put words to them.
"E.g.: My client, whom I'd referred to Barbara, in later sessions
described her experiences with Barbara and Reiki : I'd felt these sensations
before, but couldn't describe them. During a Reiki session, I re-experienced
the original sensations that had been so frightening. But this time
I was able to put words to them. I remember suddenly blurting out, 'That's
the abuse!' It was a huge relief that those horrible physical sensations
I'd had all my life—and that had produced so much anxiety—could be named
and dealt with."
