"I asked if they could change the music, but they just ignored me," a client told me about a previous Reiki experience. "Then they used aromatherapy after I specifically told them certain smells are triggering for me. When I became uncomfortable, the practitioner told me I 'needed to get over what triggered me' and that 'if I loved myself more, I wouldn't be so easily irritated.'"

Description of image: This image shows a close-up view of two people's hands clasped together in what appears to be a supportive gesture. One person, wearing a blue button-up shirt and what looks like an orange/rust-colored shawl or cardigan, is having their hand held by another person wearing a light brown/beige ribbed sweater.
