What is Reiki?

Reiki

The word Reiki is made of two Japanese words - Rei which means "God's Wisdom or the Higher Power" and Ki which is
"life force energy". So Reiki is actually "spiritually guided
life force energy."  

A treatment feels like a wonderful glowing radiance that flows through and around you. Reiki treats the whole person including body, emotions, mind and spirit creating many beneficial effects that include relaxation and feelings of peace, security and wellbeing. Many have
reported miraculous results.  

Reiki is a simple, natural and safe method of spiritual healing and self-improvement that everyone can use. It has been
effective in helping virtually every known illness and malady and always creates a beneficial effect. It also works in conjunction with all other
medical or therapeutic techniques to relieve side effects and promote recovery.

How Does Reiki Work?

We are alive because life force is flowing through us. Life force flows within the physical body though pathways called
chakras, meridians and nadis. It also flows around us in a field of energy called the aura. Life force nourishes the organs and cells of the body, supporting them in their vital functions. When this flow of life force is
disrupted, it causes diminished function in one or more of the organs and tissues of the physical body.  

The life force is responsive to thoughts and feelings. It becomes disrupted when we accept, either consciously or
unconsciously, negative thoughts or feelings about ourselves. These negative thoughts and feelings attach themselves to the energy field and cause a disruption in the flow of life force. This iminishes the vital function of the organs and cells of the physical body.  

Reiki heals by flowing through the affected parts of the energy field and charging them with positive energy. It raises the vibratory level of the energy field in and around the physical body where the negative thoughts and feelings are attached. This causes the negative energy to break apart and fall away. In so doing, Reiki clears, straightens and heals the energy pathways, thus allowing the life force to flow in a healthy and natural way.

Reiki Can Never Cause Harm

Because Reiki is guided by the
God-consciousness, it can never do harm. It always knows what a person needs and will adjust itself to create the effect that is appropriate for them. One never need worry about whether to give Reiki or not. It is always helpful.  

In addition, because the practitioner does not direct the healing and does not decide what to work on, or what to heal, the practitioner is not in danger of taking on the karma of the client. Because the
practitioner is not doing the healing, it is also much easier for the ego to
stay out of the way and allow the presence of God to clearly shine through.
