What is Reiki and News from Ireland: What's it like to have the gift of 'the cure'?

Like most people with the gift of the cure, Rebecca takes no money Cr; BBC News
People use energy to heal every day. Energy healing is also known as the practice of Reiki. I've experienced it, and it works. Last month, BBC News interviewed a woman in Ireland who has been healing people for a long time. Although neither she, nor the article mentions Reiki, it seems to me that is what's happening here. What do you think?
   In today's blog, you'll read about her, and find out what Reiki is all about.

WHAT IS REIKI? Reiki is a form of alternative medicine called energy healing. Reiki practitioners use a technique called palm healing or hands-on healing through which a "universal energy" is said to be transferred through the palms of the practitioner to the patient in order to encourage emotional or
physical healing.

THE BBC ARTICLE: What's it like to have the gift of 'the cure'? 
On any given day, the phone calls start early and continue late into the night at Rebecca Hamilton's County Donegal home. From an initial hello, the caller quickly moves to ask is she "the woman who has the cure" .The question finishes depending on their ailment. The cure might be for shingles, ringworm or mouth ulcers. Rebecca is quick to ask those who ring what medical help they are getting - if they say none, she tells them they should. Once she was asked to cure a flock of sheep of the contagious ovine skin condition orf. "I never knew I had a cure for that," she told BBC News NI.

"But he rang back three days later to say it had gone," she said. She's had the gift of the cure for more than 40 years, after being given it by an Irish man she met on holiday.

 Right across Ireland, there are people like Rebecca, said to be able to cure a host of common ailments. This is a land where local belief suggests water from certain wells or even soil from specific graveyards has healing properties. The cure - seemingly part folk tradition, part faith healing - predates Christianity. In a world of modern medicine, many people's belief in the cure persists. The secret prayers and set of actions involved have been passed discreetly from one healer to the next. In spite the cure's pre-Christian origin, Rebecca's methods are based in prayer and a belief in God.

At her home in St Johnston, her family joke that "she says more prayers than the Pope". How she came to have the cure is a "long story", she says. "We were on holiday in Austria, maybe about 40 years ago, and we fell in with an older couple. "She had fallen and broken her elbow and her husband Jack couldn't help her into toilets or things like that, so I did. "We got talking, started to spend meal times with them and they told us Jack had the cure for shingles and ringworm. "My own husband Tom would often take people to a lady close to where we lived to get the cure. "It was something we had a belief in and knew all about. "

Jack was in his 70s then and they had no family - I said to him that he would have to pass it on before his time came. "He came down to breakfast the next morning and said: 'Rebecca, I've been thinking over what you said and I want you to take it.'"

Over the 40-plus years since, Rebecca has seen and spoken to thousands of people seeking the cure. In days gone by, she would visit people in their homes or they would come to her.

For shingles, she circled the infected area with a pen knife.

For ringworm, a lit candle was used in the same way.

It was what Jack had instructed her to do. All the while, she recites two secret prayers passed to her by Jack - they have been kept secret to this day. The only thing she needs to know to administer the cure is the person's name. Working with a lit flame close to human skin scared Rebecca initially. "I was scared to burn someone but one day a man that lived close to us told my daughter about his wee girl who had ringworm and she said to bring her up. "I didn't want to use the candle but I did, I saw him a few days later and asked how she was - I asked if she had been taken to a doctor. "He said: 'There was no need Rebecca, sure didn't you cure her.'"

 In the years soon after Jack passed on his knowledge, Rebecca's fame grew so much she "didn't have the time to get around everyone". "Mostly I do it over the phone now, it seems to work just as well," she said. But Rebecca insists the cure belongs to God. "You say the prayers, mention the person's name and then it is with God."

An Amazing Reiki and Meditation, Message Session

On February 18, some members of Inspired Ghost Tracking and a few others gathered at the home of Reiki master Nancy Turner for meditation and Reiki. Nancy is an amazing, talented sensitive who enabled me and others to get in touch with their spirit guides and taught us how to best meditate.
   My friend and protege (I like to think of him that way) Kyle is an amazing developing medium, who has healing powers, and has even learned astral projection (something I couldn't even begin to do). Mary identified him as a former Shaman and he understood (as did I). He came on his first ghost investigation with me and my partner, and we confirmed each other all the way through the house with various ghosts who linger there. Kyle came to meditation on the 18th, and found it extremely beneficial, too.
  Mary Peck, another Reiki master who understands crystals and stones, was also present. She is extremely knowledgeable in the healing properties of all of them.

REIKI SESSION - At the end of the session, Nancy asked if there were anything else to address and I mentioned strong muscle tension in my neck and shoulder. I've had it for 2 months and only acupuncture had helped lessen the tension.  Immediately Mary and Nancy went to work with Reiki (transferring energy) and healing my neck and shoulder. The tension actually melted away.
 
MESSAGES RECEIVED -
During the session Nancy got great messages from my mom (who passed on Dec. 29). Nancy said that my mom was in the room, and said that I liked to take people under my wing and help them along. Of course, Kyle is one of those people. It was really special to get messages from my mom (I sensed she was sitting on a chair next to me, and she told me "So, this is what it's like to go to one of these meditations.").
  While I was meditating I also got some messages. One of them was very strong and turned out to be a relative of one of the people there. The spirit that came through gave me "Marj or Marg." She also said that there's a Jeff or Jeffrey that's either on the other side or still living that is connected (it's the spirit's son as it turns out). The spirit then showed me an arched church window and said that she was somewhat religious. Then she said, "When I died, there was no Jesus or saints around to greet me, dammit. Only my relatives were there!"  That clinched it for the person in the room! She said that was her personality.
  I also kept seeing the face of  a horse, and a Native American - with a red feather. Nancy said that's her Native American spirit that visits a lot.
  Over all, it was an interesting night, filled with meditations, finding our peaceful places in our minds, geting messages and Reiki healing. These are things that you can do yourself, too. Just find time to meditate, light candles, play soft, relaxing music (Pandora has a relaxation channel) and meditate!
