What is Reiki?

Reiki

Reiki is a Japanese healing technique that involves the transfer of energy from the practitioner to the recipient. I'll borrow a line from a practitioner friend from our usual Tuesday night Reiki circle. "Reiki is universal life force energy. It's in everything you can see and everything you can touch. It's in and around us right now. So we are all practicing reiki together. The certified practitioners are only learning to channel it in a more abundant amount." So, as far as energy flow goes, most people are like turning on the sink faucet of Reiki energy, while practitioners are like turning on a fire hose of Reiki! Yay lots of healing!

So reiki is practiced by placing hands lightly on or just above the body, allowing the energy to flow through the practitioner and into the recipient. The practitioner pulls energy from the universe and channels it to you. We are only conduits.

Rei means universal, omnipresent (present everywhere at the same time)/spiritual consciousness/wisdom of God or higher self). Ki is the energy, the vitality, that gives life to all living things. Reiki helps to restore balance and promote relaxation, reducing stress and enhancing overall well-being. It stimulates a persons own natural healing capabilities physically, mentally, emotionally & spiritually. I call Reiki the intelligent energy because it goes where it's needed.

It is beneficial in today's fast-paced world at the very least because it provides an opportunity for individuals to disconnect from the chaos and find inner peace. On a greater scale, Reiki can be used to alleviate physical and emotional pain, boost the immune system, and improve mental clarity. By harnessing the universal life force energy, Reiki practitioners can help individuals restore their energy flow, release blockages, and promote healing on a holistic level. I usually suggest about 3 or 4 reiki sessions at the beginning within a month. A lot of what we deal with in todays world can drain our life force energy. (No wonder were all so tired!) Once you start to collect this pure energy in more abundance, you will notice a difference in your day to day reactions & energy levels. You will notice yourself getting more protective of your energy and your space and maybe even more easily able to transmute negative energies into positive ones. You'll start to bring the light with you. Some days that light will be unable to be dimmed! What else could we ask for?

If you want more details on how reiki changed my life personally, please feel free to contact me. You can book a session with me or I can refer you to one of my many close friends who practice as well. I appreciate all of your support :)

Love & Light my little babies :)
