hi all
Having found my way to this website at lunchtime today, nearly 5 hours later im still here reading post after post.
I have always been interested in complimentary therapies along with other things so have never taken it up in much more than a fleeting interest.
Today i decided that i wanted to take Reiki further, unsure why today and why Reiki but it feels right. Also having read a few post it seems that Reiki 'finds' you not you finding it so to speak.
Anyway i have come across a local Reiki Master and have had her webpage open all day, despite emailing her with a few questions and getting a very nice and quick response, i still cant shut her page down 
I guess this is a good thing. ?
My main question really is :
Is there anything i need to so prior to going to my first Reiki session for Reiki 1 ? or have i just not found the thread yet lol. I'm obviously not thinking on the lines of who will pick up the children, more like should i be relaxing a few days before, should i be drinking water etc. ?
Im sorry if these questions sound stupid but i have to ask them, I'm sure if i select this person to do my training that she will inform me but i know that there seems to be a lot of different views and would like to see some
Thanks and sorry for the long winded post
Hiya when i was about to do my Reiki 1 i had the same questions. But my Reiki Master sent me lots of info about how to prepare for an attunement but she/he should send these through for you. Its basically to keep your diet as natural as possible and cut out all stimulants. its not imperative you stick to this information to the letter as they are just recommendations. Water is always good to be drinking. Relaxing, thinking, meditating are all useful too but as i said if you want the actual list pm me and i will send it to you.
