What is Reiki?

Reiki is Universal or Spiritually guided life force energy.

(rei - life force ki - energy). Reiki is not a religion as it holds no creed or doctrine. The living body, human or animal, radiates warmth and energy. This energy is life force itself. Everything alive contains Ki and radiates it. It is the bio-magnetic energy of the aura.

Energy Work & Reiki

Over the last few years, interest in energy work has increased. Many Westerners have studied Tai Chi, the martial arts, and acupuncture to better understand how energy works. Reiki is a Japanese form of energy work used to relax, rejuvenate and heal the body. Reiki and it’s symbols were rediscovered in the 1800’s by a Japanese physician, searching to explain why physicians no longer had the power in their hands to heal people. Dr. Usui believed that the Reiki he discovered was a lost secret that all people originally had access to for helping others.

REIKI is a form of hands on energy work used with oneself or others. After a person is initiated to Reiki energy, through the attunement process, whenever they place their hands on themselves or others, with the intention of using Reiki, the energy will flow. This energy is universal energy and has an intelligence of its own. The energy itself is comforting and nurturing and is very useful with children, pets and loved ones. If a child falls and scrapes themselves, Reiki provides a healing boost. If your spouse or loved one comes home from the office “stressed out” a few minutes of Reiki will balance and nourish them. If you have a headache or can’t sleep, Reiki can assist the body in restoring a natural calm. If you have had a cold or flu, or just feel like you're running on empty, a full body Reiki session restores lost energy.

Reiki is compatible with all other healing systems, including allopathic medicine, AND is not a substitute for proper medical care. It will enhance and support all other forms of treatment.

What makes the healer?

The person who is attuned as a Reiki healer has had their body energy turned on, or channels opened and cleared by the attunement. The attunement creates the connection to the source of all universal Ch’i or Ki. Upon receiving the attunement, the receiver is connected in an increased way to the universal, limitless energy source. The receiver becomes a channel for the energy to flow.

What is the attunement or initiation?

In the attunement process, the teacher stands behind the student drawing the symbols over the crown chakra. SHe/he then repeats the process of drawing the symbols in the palms. It is the attunement that sets Reiki apart from any other form of laying on of the hands or touch healing.

What to expect after the attunement.

Receivers of the attunement experience the energy often in many different ways. Some may feel a sense of peace or calm. Others may experience colors or pictures, some are filled with love. When Reiki Practitioners begin to place their hands on others to bring the Reiki energy through, they may experience sensations of heat, tingling, cold, magnetic pull. It may take some practice to begin to notice how the energy manifests with each person. The energy can turn on at odd times. The person may experience intense dreams, or feel spacy or tingly, they may notice symptoms in the abdominal area. It is important to drink plenty of water when doing a session on ones self or another. With the attunement or hands on session, the chakras and aura are clearing and this can cause symptoms noted. It is important to do many sessions after receiving the Reiki attunement.
