Here is Mamta’s personal story:

I grew up in India. I moved to the UK in 1992 when I got married. I have graduate degree in Mathematical Statistics, and Post graduate in Computer Applications. I chose to be a full time mother and gave up paid work in Software Industry in 1995.

I had my second child in 1998. Struggling through two pregnancies, motherhood with two children, trying to navigate the two cultures, not sure if I had done the right thing in giving up paid work, I was not in a happy space when I learnt Reiki in the UK, in 2001. I did not know much about Reiki at the time. It was sheer chance that brought me to Reiki. I saw a poster about Reiki classes. It said that learning Reiki will enable you to give Reiki to yourself (I did not know of another natural healing modality that one could practise on oneself), to your children (I thought how wonderful it would be to be able to help my children feel better), to your family and friends (again I felt I could help my husband who worked long hours).
Despite not knowing much more than this about Reiki at the time, I am so glad I went to the Reiki class. I continue to feel that Reiki is one of the best things that I have ever learnt. Like a lot of other mothers, I used to feel quite low, tired and stressed. I discovered Reiki when my younger child was about two. With Reiki in my life I started to feel a whole lot better, healthier, calmer, more relaxed and had more energy.

Over the years, I gave Reiki to my children as often as I could, especially when they were unwell, or they hurt themselves, or when they were feeling tired and it always helped. Once my younger one had fallen over when he was little, banged his head, and I could see a lump forming. I gave him Reiki right away and the lump almost disappeared. Over the years Reiki has been amazingly helpful when dealing with illness, falls, bumps & bruises. It also helped me to stay calm when my children were hurt or unwell - all I needed to do was to put my hands on my child to soothe his/her pain.

I often wish that I had learnt Reiki before I had my children. Perhaps my two pregnancies would have been easier. I had nausea throughout most of both pregnancies, a lot of anxiety, two ventouse deliveries, extreme discomfort with stitches afterwards. My younger one had reflux, was very unsettled as a baby and a poor sleeper. I remember many occasions when I ended up in tears as he would not stop crying no matter what I tried. I wish I could have put my Reiki hands on him and myself at that time.

My own experience with Reiki inspired me to share the benefits of Reiki with other mothers. As I started giving Reiki treatments I found both babies and mothers benefit from receiving Reiki. I used to wish that someone had told me earlier about how beneficial Reiki can be for mothers and babies. I hope to do this for other mothers through sharing my experience and the Reiki Clinic for Pregnant Women and Mothers with Babies.

Over the years I have seen many benefits of having Reiki in our lives. The main reason Reiki has been so effective in helping improve my wellbeing is because I have been able to maintain the discipline of giving myself daily Reiki treatments over the years. Whenever I am suffering, feeling overwhelmed or concerned I receive a Reiki treatment from someone else. I find Reiki helps nourish my life force, my ki and many benefits ensue from this.

I have been teaching Reiki since 2008. I love being able to help people learn Reiki. It is deeply satisfying to see students benefit from Reiki like I have since 2001. It is especially rewarding to hear from my students who are mothers about the positive difference Reiki can make to their lives.

You can read some testimonials from my students and clients to see how beneficial Reiki can be and visit my blog to find out more about my recent Reiki journey.
