[sejal]

Hello. I am Sejal, a 30 year old female. This is my first post. I joined because of an experience I had in the wee hours of my 30th birthday, two nights ago.

I have received Reiki treatment formally a few times. That was years ago. I have never trained.

Sorry for all the new paragraphs. I don’t know where to begin. I am in love with a good friend, “Raj.” I see him every few months. We used to act like a couple but we never formally declared it. That was when we went to school together. We have seen each other several times over the past year even though we live far apart.

I have this problem where I don’t pray every day. I would like to pray every day. I chant my mantra a few times a week.

I have been practicing mindfulness meditation. It is only within the last few days that I have really gotten the hang of noticing the qualities of things around me, really appreciating them. I feel like I’m turning a corner.

That night I spoke about, I was thinking of the next time I will see Raj, a month from now. I was praying. I was telling God that I was going to start praying to Her every day, whether or not I needed anything. Without warning, energy, I think it was Reiki energy, started to POUR out of both my hands. I put one hand on the top of my head and the other over my heart. My third eye started responding strongly. I also spent some time with my palms open, offering the energy to God. I also spent time with my hands in the Anjali mudra. I don’t know how long the outpouring lasted. Several minutes I guess.

So what do you think that was? And what do I do now? Every time I think of that experience, my hands tingle, but nowhere nearly as strongly as they did that night.
