Your head lays on the pillow
The pillow lays on my lap
My hands are warm
As I lay them on your head
On your forehead
On your shoulder
On your heart
On your stomach
On your chest
On your throat
Colors float past my closed eyes
I feel heat and cool where I lay my hands
The energy spins
And dances
And lays down to rest.
Your breath becomes easy
Your eyes close
I watch your pain begin to dissipate
In the colors behind my eyelids
It is not me.
I have no power.
I am no one.
I am everyone.
I ask only that love flow through me
Into you
That’s all.
It is an honor to be a conduit for love.

Deb, this is so beautiful:
“It is an honor to be a conduit for love.”
Thank you trE. My Daniel had surgery (rotator cuff) last week. I’ve been doing reiki a lot for him, and I’d forgotten how wonderful it is to practice that art. Appreciate so much your kind thoughts.
You’re most welcome. I hope the healing process is a quick one for him.
I agree – that line spoke to me as well!
Thank you so much! It’s always so nice to know if and when ones work touches and connects with someone! 😊
This is utterly beautiful
Thank you so much! I am honored that you think so.
Beautifully done
Thank you so much. It means a lot that you think so.
It’s interesting that this post comes up now. Except for an occasional minute on myself or a pet, I had not done reiki in a long time. A couple nights ago, I became a conduit for my husband who is recovering from sinus surgery and had a headache. The flowing energy felt strong, warm and good. You described this so well.
It is a wonderful practice. I bet your husband appreciated it. Dan always says it helps. I hadn’t done it for a long time either but now I’m looking for a decent massage table so it will be easier to do. I’m glad you liked the poem, and thank you for telling me it described the feeling well. Such an intuitive thing.
Yes, it is.
