What is Reiki?
Reiki is a Japanese form of “hands on healing which is becoming increasingly popular worldwide. Reiki involves the transfer of energy from practitioner to patient to enhance the body’s natural ability to heal itself through the balancing of energy. It is a holistic healing system for mind body and spirit and complements other therapies. Reiki is pronounced (ray-key) representing universal life energy the energy which is all around us.
Reiki practitioners channel energy in a particular sequence of hand positions around the body to heal and harmonise and balance the body’s energy system.
Reiki energy has several basic effects; it brings about deep relaxation destroys energy blockages relieves fatigue detoxifies the system and increases the vibrational rate of the body. In Reiki healing the practitioner places his or her hands above the recipient who then draws the energy from the healers hands as needed so that the recipient plays an active part in the healing process and takes responsibility for their own healing needs. Reiki has an intelligence of its own and will go where it it is most needed be it body, mind or spirit.
Reiki is not attached to any religion and is therefore available to everyone.
History of Reiki
Reiki is believed to have begun in Tibet several thousand years ago. Unfortunately this healing system and original source itself was forgotten.
Dr Mikao Usui a Japanese Christian Monk who lived in Kyoto in the late 1800’s rediscovered this system and called it Reiki. He began a twenty one year study of healing and ancient sounds and symbols which are linked directly to the human body and nervous system which active the universal life energy for healing. Dr Usui passed on this system of healing from master to student until his death around 1893.
