Hi everyone, this question is generally aimed at those that do reiki/healing in general. I know only I can make the decision but what would you do in these circumstances. A friend of mum's (I don't know her too well except to say hello). On Easter Sunday her husband suddenly died. He wasn't ill so it wasn't kind of expected. The funeral has now been but she is on anti depressants, as the doctor thinks this is best for her.

I was thinking of offering her a few Reiki sessions (free), maybe 3/4 (I don't work on holistics Tue or Thur as these are my days to enjoy other things, so i would be able to release some time for her). Would you offer free treatments as a gesture of goodwill due to the circumstanes.

Hiya

What a lovely idea! I think there has been some time since she lost her husband so it may well be a good time for her to begin healing from the loss and putting things in place. I would probably ask your mum to see how she is coping and then you could approach her friend with an offer if you bump into her. Often, when someone has endured a loss they get a lot of support and calls for the first month or so, then offers of support, guidance and care just stop, which can leave them feeling isolated and lost, it is then that they start to really feel the hole which has been left. It might be that some treatments will give her support she needs. Remember, that if she does decline your offer of reiki, it's not a problem, you have offered her an outstretched hand of support and that will mean the world to her. She needs to tread her own path in this as the time is right. Really hops it all works out.

I would and I do that a lot. You do what you are moved to do.
If you feel like it, thats what wants to happen.
Good luck

Follow your intuition. The very fact that the idea has arisen, should be enough to indicate that you should at least offer it, as you know it will not inconvenience you and will only be for the benefit of another. As already mentioned, if she refuses, then at least the offer was there, and that in itself can be healing.

All Love and Reiki Hugs

absolutely, if the thought was there you should follow it.. i'm sure she'd feel quite touched that you have taken the time to care and even if she's never really heard of reiki before you could always explain the benefits and how it could help her to heal on both an emotional and physical level.. quite often people are curious about this kind of thing but are never 'brave' enough to actually seek out healing.. as far as i can see, it's a beautiful idea, one that i think she would like..

we also need to give of ourselves, in order to receive.. 🙂

let us know how it goes..

It's a lovely gesture of compassion, and simply knowing someone cares in this way will give the lady comfort. Oh, how I wish there was more of this kindness floating around...!
