Reiki Energy is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation
that also promotes healing. It is administered by "laying on hands" and is based on the idea that an unseen "life
force energy" flows through us and is what causes us to be alive. If one's "life force energy" is low,
then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy.
Energy Healing modalities are helping people understand who they really are at a core level.
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 Energy
Healing 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.
While Reiki is spiritual in nature, it is not a religion. It has no dogma, and
there is nothing you must believe in order to learn and use Reiki Energy. In fact, Reiki is not dependent on belief at all
and will work whether you believe in it or not. Because Reiki comes from God, many people find that using Reiki puts them
more in touch with the experience of their religion rather than having only an intellectual concept of it.
While Reiki is not a religion, it is still important to live and act in a way
that promotes harmony with others. Dr. Mikao Usui, the founder of the Reiki system of natural healing, recommended that one
practice certain simple ethical ideals to promote peace and harmony, which are nearly universal across all cultures.
In order for the Reiki healing energies to have lasting results, the client
must accept responsibility for her or his healing and take an active part in it. Therefore, the Usui system of Reiki is more
than the use of the Reiki healing energy. It must also include an active commitment to improve oneself in order for it to
be a complete system. The ideals are both guidelines for living a gracious life and virtues worthy of practice for their inherent
value.
