How Reiki Healed Me: A Journey Through Rage

Sometimes, life has a way of pushing us to our limits, and for me, that breaking point came in June 2024. I spent seven long years training to practice law at the criminal bar in London. So, when a crime was committed against my family in broad daylight, witnessed by many, I knew exactly what should happen next. but the law failed us, and the crime went unpunished, a crime that nearly killed my 4-year-old. As both a mother and a trained criminal lawyer, I was utterly devastated.

The anger and frustration I felt were overwhelming. It’s not a story I wish to revisit because recounting it would only fuel your anger, and anger creates dis-ease. But trust me when I say, it was a deep, intense rage unlike anything I had ever experienced before.

Every night, I would wake up drenched in sweat, my body tense with fury, consumed by thoughts of all the ways those who’d wronged us should pay. This went on for months. I didn’t realize how much it was slowly eating away at me until one day, after living most of my life in good health and running without issue, I found I couldn’t walk.

You can often tell when a health issue is triggered by emotions because it hits you out of nowhere, just like it did with me. I was on a trip to Starbucks for a pumpkin spice latte (don’t judge, we all need our comforts!). I sat down, savoring the warmth of the drink, but when I stood up to leave I couldn’t walk. Not limping. Not struggling. I literally couldn’t move my legs. It felt as though my body had betrayed me. After seeing several doctors, I was diagnosed with severe sciatica and an issue with my SI joint. Yet, I still didn’t connect the dots. My body was screaming for attention, but my mind was still consumed by rage—the kind of rage that blinds you to what’s happening inside.

My mum, with her usual wisdom, suggested, “Do you think this criminal might be the thing that's literally on your nerves?” She was right. That criminal was deep inside me, on my nerves, in my body, affecting me in ways I didn’t understand but of course, I couldn't see it.

In two weeks, I went on to develop a blood disorder. I could barely take care of my kids, something that hit me like a ton of bricks.

I’ve never been a person to get sick—never even had the flu in my 38 years—but then, I caught influenza A. And it hit hard. I lost my hearing in one ear. I lost my sense of smell and taste. My world was shrinking, and I couldn’t seem to escape it.

Having seen every doctor you can imagine to no avail, I tried Reiki for the first time. Honestly, I was desperate. I had nothing to lose. In that session, something incredible happened. For the first time since the crime had been committed, I felt light. A weight lifted from my shoulders, from my chest, from my heart. It was as if all the anger, all the hurt, all the frustration had finally been released.

That moment was a stark awakening. It hit me that my healing wasn’t just about physical symptoms or illness—it was about healing my soul, about letting go of the emotional toxins that had taken root in my body. And in that moment, I made a vow to myself: if I recovered—if my hearing returned, if I could walk again, if I could carry my children again, if I could run again—I would train in Reiki to help others heal, just as I had been healed.

I got better. Slowly but surely, the sciatica faded. The blood disorder vanished. The flu passed. I could walk again. I could breathe again. I ran a 5km with my dog. I could be present for my kids again. And now despite all of my logic and data demands, I have an unwavering belief in the power of Reiki and energy healing.

I’m not a healer by profession—I’m someone who had to heal first, in every sense of the word. Now, I’m on a mission to help others tap into this incredible source of healing. Reiki isn’t just a treatment; it’s a pathway to transformation. It helped me release an experience that triggered every cell in side of me to generate severe physical pain.

As for the crime committed against my daughter—justice is on the way. The European Commission has taken up my family’s case, and I remain hopeful that soon, I’ll be able to share a positive outcome.
