HI
I have been practising Reiki since 2003, Master since 2005. I only ever taught reiki to family and friends, and never did it on a professional basis. After a loss in faith in 2010 I gave up everything, Reiki & spirituality and vowed never to come back to it.
Then August last year I lost my father and a few weeks later a friend I had attuned to Reiki years ago phoned out of the blue and asked me to attune a client. I initially refused but after a sleepless night I phoned back and agreed. I found myself drawn back to Reiki. The attunement never came about in the end, so I knew I was called back for a reason.
Fast forward to now. I am now running a small business and have been quite busy. For the first time since practising Reiki, I am actually charging for it and back to teaching it. BUT I have found that after performing attunements, I seem to be going through a detox myself? A couple of hours after performing the attunements the sneezing starts, and nose bungs up. I have the symptoms of a cold for 24 to 48 hours. This happened last month after attuning 2 people and again at the weekend after running another course. The sneezing was so bad that I burst a blood vessel in my eye!
I perform self healing on myself and I'm not aware of any blockages. I never had this before.
Has anyone else experienced this? I'm guessing I'm going through a detox of some sort just like students being initiated can?
TIA

You are right, it is a detox in progress.
I have read these are symptoms while going through reiki... its normal
Yes that's perfectly normal. It happens because you get reattuned every time you attune someone. You get used to it pretty quickly.
