Dr. Zeyneb Belbez, M.D. - Istanbul, Turkey - March 10, 2005:

"It was a great experience. Thank you! I sat relaxed and enjoyed the sensations- very much. Being the curious person I am, I also kept an eye on the energy play in my body :)

"First, almost all of a sudden, I felt my heart chakra pulsating. (Checked my radial pulse to see if I was mistaken in thinking it was the heart chakra. But no, the radial pulse had a different rhythm.) It was very strong, and the diameter quite big, reaching my shoulders and even beyond. It was like a big whirlpool and tides of waves kept coming. This went on and on and after a while, say about 5 minutes (from time to time I looked at the grandfather clock right across me) later my 6th chakra was activated. But it had a different rhythm and the sensation was different too. May be it was not the 6th chakra? The pulsation came more from inside. The pineal-site of the third eye?? Anyhow, I had that pulsation around my head- not on the top though. More around my forehead and the two sides of the head, expanding a little beyond the sides. It got stronger and then weakened, then stronger again. Yet the heart chakra had the same strength and rhythm thruout. Then about ten minutes from the beginning, the heart chakra turned outward, sort of. As if it was sending energy somewhere. From time to time I had that ''sending'' sensation in my 6th chakra too. So I said to them- Ok sweeties, if you want to wander around, go to ''the web of love.'' Don't know if they cared about my directives :) All this lasted about 15 min. then subsided, not suddenly but quite quickly."

AND 23 March....

"The second time I got Reiju was different from the first. Almost at once, say may be about a minute or so of the activation of my heart and 6th chakras, I had that 'sending' feeling. It was as if my 4th and 6th chakras were being pulled outward.

"I had two Reiki 1 classes last week. The experience was great for me. I felt as if it was me who was being attuned! The energy was so powerful. I only had one class - my first one - before you sent Reiju and the experience was nothing like these two classes. And during these recent classes my hands became extremely sensitive. After the classes I felt very much indebted to you and sent you my love and blessings several times.

"During the week, from time to time I felt a fullness in my ears, sort of a pounding sensation. Also around my head. I had this experience when I got my Reiki 2. It was very powerful then and I remember I was afraid I was going to fall off the chair. Thought I had a sudden hypertensive attack. Checked and saw that it had nothing to do with my blood pressure. Now for the last few days I've been trying to figure out if I am sick or just too well :) Checked my blood pressure several times. It was only a little above my normal (normal 110, now 120-125, but actually I'm not sure about my normal since I check it rarely). Couldnt decide if I was too sensitive to such a small rise in pressure (my mom is) or it was because of Reiju. Today right after Reiju I felt that pounding in the ears very strongly, and so at last I could decide that I was not sick :) So that means I have the empowerment not only on a certain hour in a certain day of the week, but from time to time thruout the week???

"Today Reiju was so very different. I lay down, relaxed, welcomed Reiju, not expecting anything particular, just curious. This time to my surprise I had so very different sensations. First it was my 3rd chakra, pulsating slowly and rhythmically. For a while that was all. Then the 5th started to pulsate together with the 3rd. Then after a while - surprise! The reconnective frequencies started sliding down from my 7th. Concentrated mostly on my temples, but went sliding in every direction. Then I had the sending feeling again, but couldnt decide whether from the 3rd or the 4th. Sort of in between? My hands burned and I had lots of different subtle feelings going on in my body. Didn't know which way to look - it was as if there was something going on in every part of my body! The reconnective frequencies didn't leave once after they came. I don't know for how long, for after about 40 minutes I got up and then my daughter called me and we had a long talk, and I couldn't track the sensations anymore."
