Hello

[SummerBreeze]

Hello.

 

I was initially drawn to energy work due to health issues that I have to manage on a daily basis.
I’m sensitive to energy (including spirits), although I’m open-minded as to what that phenomena could be. I trained as a medium 15 years ago, but had to give it up because I had some unsettling experiences. By “give it up”, I mean that I just ignore it, let it be, and no longer engage. I try to treat it as my own thought projections and dismiss them as such, which they very well could be.

 

I’m trained to Reiki Level 3, but I found it was draining my energy when I channelled healing into people. My teacher told me to visualise a white light around me, but that never worked. Nor did crystals, or anything, really.
Shortly after my Reiki Attunements, I began getting sicker more often and picking up on bugs/viruses, as though my immune system had gotten weaker. I’m not sure if it was just coincidence, but a few years after my attunements and giving sessions that made me feel drained afterwards, I eventually gave it up completely.
I spent a lot of time experimenting with different forms of protection, blaming myself, using intention to channel Reiki energy instead of using my own energy, but none of it worked. I found the best thing to do was to walk away and leave behind anything that wasn’t working for me after giving it a fair go.

As a side note, I know some Reiki practitioners personally who swear by Reiki, so I’m still open to the fact that it could’ve been me doing something incorrect, or having a weak defence system, or something. I’m not knocking the system itself. It just wasn’t working for me personally.

 

After lurking around these forums, I discovered Flying Phoenix Qigong, and how highly many of you speak of it. And wow! Since starting Flying Phoenix, it’s been a consistent daily practice for me. Absolutely beautiful. I always look forward to my practice, and enjoy the rewards it brings. My energy feels “clearer”, clean, light.

I see blue or purple flashes of light occasionally, which is interesting. But most importantly, I feel healthier.

It’s also removed some physical pains from my neck and my spine feels in better alignment.

 

Over the years I’ve tried a lot, and it would be impossible to describe my entire journey in one post. I’ve also had to let go of a lot.

My daily practice is now, simply, Formless Meditation, and Flying Phoenix Qigong.
It’s brought me a beautiful amount of peace and I’m cultivating better health, on a gradual basis.

 

In general, I love nature, gardening, growing my own veggies, and I’m a total introvert. I love sitting with a good book and the taste of smooth coffee. I love my solitude, am crap at sports, and much prefer online forums to real life socialising. There’s my little introduction. Looking forward to being a Bum.

Yes, I too tried out various things and found them not to be for me. I am glad you found the right method for you. Welcome to the the forum. Enjoy.

Welcome! Glad you ended up trying Flying Phoenix. I don’t think I’ve seen a single bad review from people who have tried it, except that they don’t have enough time in their day to do more of it!
