WHAT IS REIKI?
Reiki is a Japanese touch therapy technique. Reiki also is described as a hands-on healing technique and art that promotes and supports the body's own mechanisms to heal itself. Reiki restores balance on physical, mental, and emotional levels for any living thing. These tenets of Reiki are just like those of yoga, tai chi, acupressure, and martial arts. Moreover, Reiki is accepted as an adjunct treatment to traditional Western medical and psycho-therapeutic techniques. Reiki is used as an integrative tool to help in several areas of healing.
A Reiki practitioner gently conducts an unlimited supply of life force energy through the client as is needed. Once a practitioner is attuned to Reiki, it is a permanent gift that never leaves or expires. Another wonderful thing about Reiki is that anyone can learn it - even a child. And once you learn it, you can use this simple healing technique on yourself, pets, and on others. Reiki carries inherently high levels of protection with it, so you do not suffer personal energy loss or drain while treating others. This is one of the many unique and wonderful attributes of Reiki that is not common among other types of touch energy arts and techniques.
Features of a Reiki treatment:
- A one-way flow of balancing, calming life force energy, through practitioner to client
- The energy does not come from the practitioner, rather s/he is a trained "transmitter"
- A treatment is extremely pleasant and relaxing
- Only use is to promote healing and improve quality of life
- Supports medical treatments and all religious beliefs without conflict
- Never violates anyone's free will--it does not flow for those who don't want it
- Can be given any time to anyone
What is Life Force Energy? It is the natural energy that flows through all things, supports, and heals all life. Scientists detect it as a form of molecular light because it vibrates the same way as light waves. It is also a part of the Human Energy Field (including the bio-electric field). Other names:
- Prana by Hindus
- Chi or Qi by the Chinese
- Ki by the Japanese
- Direct Current Control System by American scientist, Dr. Robert Becker
- Bioplasmic energy by the Russian Popov Scientific Bio-Information Institute
- Orgone energy by Dr. Wilhelm Reich
- Holy Spirit in Christian literature
- Ruach in Hebrew literature
- Animal magnetism by Austrian scientist, Dr. F.A. Mesmer
What Does Reiki Actually do to the Body? A Reiki treatment concentrates the flow of this natural energy through many body systems. For example, bodies have seven main chakras. Chakras do many things, such as act as "valves" allowing one's life force energy to circulate upward through the body. This is healthy!
Reiki treatments send extra energy through the body to support this circulation. Once the life force energy flows freely, a client's body can balance itself, function better, and begin healing on its own. Therefore, Reiki is very safe, self-regulated, no formal prep, quick, cheap, and has no drug side effects. Furthermore, no experience is necessary to learn or receive it.
