REIKI


What Is Reiki?

Reiki is a form of touch therapy rediscovered by Dr. Mikao Usui in Japan in the early 1900's. It translates from the Japanese dictionary as:

Rei " To honor and give respect"
Ki " Life Force Energy"

A Reiki practitioner is able to become a channel for this subtle nutritive energy (also called chi, qi, prana etc.according to various cultures) that gives every living thing life through a simple process called an attunement.


How Does It Work?

Some believe that we possess not only a physical body, but a series of subtle bodies, each having their own vibrational frequency. In his book "Vibrational Medicine", Richard Gerber, MD, helps us to comprehend this concept "All matter, both physical and subtle, has frequency. Matter of different frequencies can coexist in the same space, just as energies of different frequencies (ie. Radio and TV) can exist nondestructively in the same space." The subtle energy system, which is composed of the subtle bodies, interact with the physical through specific channel systems. The basic hand positions of a full Reiki treatment generally corresponds with the Chakra system. The Chakras are specialized energy centers. They act as transformers,stepping down the vibrational frequency of subtle energies as they descend through the subtle energy system, ultimately converting them into hormonal, nerve and cellular activity in the physical body. The Nadis are energetic threads which connect the Chakras to each other and respective areas of the physical body, such as the endocrine and nervous systems. It is said that disease can originate in the subtle energy system through blockages and disturbances starting at any point from the Spiritual, Mental, Emotional or Etheric Double and filtering down to the Physical body.

Reiki and Nutrition

This is where Reiki comes in. It works on every level, to bring balance and free blockages so that the nutritive subtle energy can flow unrestricted where needed. Anyone interested in a truly holistic approach to "Vibrant Health" could find the benefits of Reiki to be an easy and logical addition to the things we must do to stay healthy, such as sound nutritional practices, exercise, proper rest and relaxation. We could use as an example a person looking to facilitate the healing of an ulcer. Through the use of Reiki, they could find themselves better able to identify and deal with unwanted stress and on going issues as it works with the mental and emotional subtle bodies, as well as calms and relaxes the physical. This relieves irritation to the ulcer and combined with dietary recommendations and specific vitamin and herbal supplements, one could find themselves well on their way to recovery, with a reduced chance of reoccurrence.

Strengths

One of the unique things about this healing module is that any person is able to undergo the attunement process. This gives all the ability to use Reiki to help themselves and their loved ones to better health. No tools are needed and it is with us for life. Through its capabilities to calm and relax, Reiki can also be an effective pain reliever. At times the results that we get from a Reiki treatment are not what we expect. As it works on our deeper levels, it is not always an instant fix, and can hold some surprises in the healing process, sometimes far surpassing our expectations.

Limitations

Some question the validity of this healing module because it has not been scientifically proven and accepted by mainstream medicine, although many have seen life altering results. Some have religious beliefs that question not the fact that it works, but the source of the healing power and are not comfortable with the idea that many see changes in their spiritual connection after working with Reiki. Due to the various paths that Reiki can take in helping us in our healing adventure, it can be unpredictable and the effects may not always be instant or obvious. Sometimes a little faith and patience are needed. It is not always an instant fix, a miraculous cure nor guaranteed to work in the way we may wish it to, indeed, it is often used to help those who are terminally ill to pass on in peace. As a Reiki practitioner myself, I can say that although the exact mechanisms as to how it works are not visible to the human eye, I have seen that this healing process has a very positive effect on myself and members of my family, as well as clients. I would recommend it to anyone aspiring to enhance their present approach to optimal wellness.

Reiki Natural Healing

Reiki (ray-key) is a Japanese word for Universal Life Force and a system of natural healing that channels Reiki through the hands. It is known by many names. The traditional Asian medical paradigm views injury, dysfunction and disease as manifesting when subtle energies are weak, distorted or out-of-balance. Tai Chi, Acupuncture, Hatha Yoga, Homeopathy,Shiatsu, Polarity, Macrobiotics, Radionics, and Herbal remedies are means of optimizing subtle auric and internal energies. Reiki accesses the source of Life to heal the self and others on spiritual, mental, emotional and physical levels. Reiki allows the source of well-being to enhance and balance natural life forces through non-intrusive therapeutic touch. Health maintenance, pain relief, mental quietude and healing result from its application. Reiki augments and accelerates the healing process. It can be effective in cases that do not respond to other forms of treatment. It can be used in conjunction with any other therapeutic modality. Creative energy is the essence of all healing. Dr. Albert Schweitzer said, "We physicians do nothing, we only help and encourage the physician within." Reiki is a spiritual power that came with the Buddha's enlightenment. He gave that gift to his students along with meditation techniques which were the means of his self-realization. In the late 1800s a specific formula for accessing Universal Life Force was discovered in some Sanskrit sutras found in a Kyoto zendo by a scholar seeking knowledge of what the Buddha taught about healing.

Mikao Usui was contemplating what he had learned when he received a transcendental initiation, the results of which were the abilities of healing by laying on of the hands and of sending healing over distance. Much later he realized that the experience of God is more essential to fulfillment of the purpose of life than the power of healing. Reiki is an essence which comes from the Source of Life itself. Since Reiki is multi-dimensional it can be a catalytic factor in personal evolution no matter what beliefs are held. The experience of Reiki is a vehicle to becoming conscious of your own being regardless of faith or concepts. The innate ability to channel healing energy through the hands is awakened through a series of direct transmission initiations which attune and align energy centers in the body and hands. Reiki is not a system of religious beliefs. The world does not need another. Anyone can learn Reiki; it is very simple.

TRADITIONAL (KARUNA)

WHAT IS REIKI?

Reiki (pronounced: "Ray-Key") is Japanese "Universal life force energy." Reiki is a method of natural healing using the universal life force energy to promote healing. When the energy in our body becomes imbalanced or depleted, due to stress or illness, our body can no longer heal itself - it needs help. Reiki is a powerful hands-on healing technique, in which this energy is drawn through the practitioner's body and then transferred to the client. Physical, mental, emotional and spiritual blocks are released during a healing, to bring clients greater health, well-being and harmony. Healing Hands uses Reiki treatments before a massage to help ease the body's pain. It is a wonderful, natural "pain-killer." Reiki supports the body's natural ability to heal itself. It vitalizes body, soul and mind.

Benefits of Reiki:

Reiki functions on all levels. Mental, spiritual, physically and emotionally. It balances the body's energies. It loosens up blocked energy and promotes a state of relaxation. It cleans the body of poisons and enhances deeper detoxification.

Reiki not only heals diseases, but also amplifies innate abilities, balances the spirit, makes the body healthy and thus helps achieve happiness. To teach this to others you should follow the five principles of the Meiji Emperor and contemplate them in your heart. They should be spoken daily, once in the morning and once in the evening.

Don't get angry today.
Don't worry today.
Be grateful today.
Work hard today.
Be kind to others today.

The ultimate goal is to understand the ancient secret method for gaining happiness (Reiki) and thereby discover an all-purpose cure for many ailments. If these principles are followed you will achieve the great tranquil mind of the ancient sages. To begin spreading the Reiki system, it is important to start from a place close to you (yourself), don't start from something distant such as philosophy or logic. Sit still and in silence every morning and every evening with your hands folded in the "Ghasso" or "Namaste." Follow the great principles, and be clean and quiet. Work on your heart and do things from the quiet space inside of you. Anyone can access Reiki, because it begins within yourself !

"This is a truly important admonitory."

"This is the same way as wisemen and saints discipline themselves since ancient times."

"Sensei named these to clarify his purpose to teach."

"It was the true meaning of this to practice it in daily life, using it."

"This is the reason why Reiki became so popular."
