What is Reiki?

Reiki is an ancient hands on healing system that was rediscovered by Mikao Usui, in Japan in the nineteenth century.  It was subsequently brought to the Western World by Hawayo Takato, a Japanese American woman who lived in Hawaii. 

Reiki is a gentle healing system in which the giver places their hands on the body of the receiver and channels Universal Energy through their hands into the body of the receiver.  Reiki can also be given without touching the body.  The receiver will take only the amount of energy needed for healing.  Since the giver is channeling universal energy and is not using their own energy, they never feel drained of energy.  In fact, the giver also feels revitalized and strengthened after every treatment because the healing energy is moving through the giver's body first on the way to the receiver. 

Someone who has studied Reiki has received attunements in each class.  These attunements allow the giver to channel the universal energy.  The attunements are done as a loving, gentle ceremony.  They help connect us to the Universal Energy, and clear and balance our chakras and this enables us to be a clearer channel for the healing Reiki Energy.  

Why Do We Need Reiki? 

In today's stressful society, most people never get into a deep state of relaxation, even when they are sleeping.  The Reiki Energy puts the body into a deep state of relaxation so that the receiver's own innate healing system can kick in.  Since spiritual Universal Energy is being channeled into the receiver's body, healing is accelerated.   Thus Reiki can be used as a holistic natural method of physical healing, relaxation and stress release. 

Reiki is also a great way to begin a Spiritual Journey of growth and connection to our higher power.   We often tend to ignore our spirit and it gets lost in the busy of life.  Reiki can be a great way to begin the Search for your Spirit, so that you live a more peaceful happy life.  It helps us to relax, make decisions about what is really important in our lives, and to use the universal energy to connect with our soul. This then can help bring peace and balance into our lives. 

Reiki heals on all of the four levels or aspects of our being; the physical body, as well as the emotional (our feelings), the mental, (our beliefs) and our spiritual bodies.  Therefore Reiki is considered by many to be a path to personal and spiritual growth.  Through Reiki we learn to release old beliefs and negative patterns that no longer serve us.  It helps to keep our emotions balanced, which allows us to live in more peace and harmony.  We begin to feel more self-confidence and self love, and to handle modern day stresses better.  These are giant steps on your Search for Spirit and finding your true self.  As we learn to connect to our higher selves and the Universal Energy, we also find that our intuitive capabilities are enhanced, and we can receive clearer guidance. 

One of the great features of Reiki is that it is one of the few healing modalities that is easy to use to treat yourself. This can be done in the privacy of your own home, for your own personal healing, and does not have to be shared with anyone else.  The most important thing is to heal yourself and this should be high on your list of priorities.  Then you can share it with others, with your pets who love this gentle energy, and even with plants. 

Reiki can be used for self healing in a self treatment, in a facilitated session where you treat someone else or can be sent at a distance.

Reiki is taught in four different classes.  These include Reiki Level I, Reiki Level II, Reiki Level II and Reiki Master Training.
