What is Reiki Healing?
“ Reiki ...being a Universal force from the Great Divine Spirit, it belongs to all who seek and desire to learn the art of healing" Hawayo Takata
Reiki (pronounced “ray-key”) Healing is an ancient Japanese hands-on healing art. It is a method of healing that is considered a form of bodywork. As an energy medicine Reiki supports healing the body, mind, emotions and spirit.
The Reiki Healing practitioner channels universal (rei) life force energy (ki) through the palms of the hands. The hands are placed on or slightly above the fully clothed body of the client. Being held in a specific position for about two minutes, the hands are then moved to the next position.
In Reiki Healing the practitioner is intuitively guided to each area of the body and what it needs, and the length of time needed. Usually the client feels a warm sensation or waves of energy. Where there is inflamation, that part of the body may experience coolness. The body will draw what it needs for balance from the healers hands as they channel universal life force energy.
Receiving Reiki Healing Energy
The client is encouraged to let go and to be in the process of receiving Reiki Healing energy. Reiki is gentle, loving, and peaceful, yet very powerful.
Receiving Reiki Healing Energy allows healing to happen on all levels - body, mind, emotions and spirit. Reiki improves the immune system, relieves pain, releases energy blocks, lifts depression, supports deeper relaxation and sleep and helps in the grieving process. Reiki Healing for fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndromehas been researched and found to be very beneficial in relieving pain.
Reiki healers are humble, open hearted, open minded and in the moment. The ego has no place here. The Reiki practitioner’s only intention is to be a pure vehicle of healing for the receptive client.
Reiki Healing Session
I start the session with a prayer to set my intention of healing and to call in the Reiki guides. At the beginning of a Reiki Healing session touch is applied to the front of the client’s body. The second half of the session continues with warm touch to the back of the head, shoulders, upper and lower back, the backs of the knees, the backs of the ankles, and the bottoms of the feet. By the end of the session the client is in a place of deep relaxation . Then I thank the client and the spiritual guides .
The body is in rest and repair mode after the Reiki Healing session and requires plenty of water to release toxins. It is best to stay relaxed for the rest of the day avoiding strenuous activity. The healing will continue for several days. Being aware of changes that occur physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually is important. Honor the healing process by being gentle with yourself. The Reiki healer cradles another human being in loving, compassionate energy.
The Reiki Healing session continues for about one hour. Lying face up and fully clothed on a massage table the client is healed starting with the head and ending with the feet. Turning over onto the stomach the healing continues head to toe.
Reiki Lineage and Kwan Yin
The Reiki healer has received training and attunements from a Reiki Master so that the healing energy is activated and channeled through the palms of the healer’s hands. Reiki is passed down through lineage from Reiki Master to healer for generations. This is called Reiki lineage.
Kwan Yin, the Sacred Feminine Goddess or Chinese Divine Mother is considered the patron saint of Reiki Healing. Her energy of unconditional love, compassion and mercy is very much present during the Reiki Healing transmission of energy that passes from the hands of the healer to the patient.
Balance
Balance is achieved through Reiki healing. Touch is healing in and of itself. Adding powerful yet gentle waves of energy channeled through the palms to the client’s body allows for relaxation , balance, removal of energy blocks, relief from pain and depression and improvement of the immune system.
The body draws to itself that which it needs for balance. Some experience the Reiki energy as warm waves of vibration others feel coolness in inflamed areas of their body.
Intention
The Reiki healer stays open in heart and mind. Focused on the intention to heal is the key. Knowing that we are whole is important. Our being is ever seeking to remain in balance in our body, mind, emotions and spirit. Keeping this balance and intention is the pathway to enlightenment which is God consciousness.
Reiki healing allows for the awareness of seeing and loving the Divine in ourselves and others so that we become free to be who we truly are - Spirit.
