Reiki is Holistic,it works with the whole being - balancing and clearing on all levels -physical, mental, emotional and spiritual - to promote wellbeing and harmony. It is a unique system of energy healing that is practised by transmitting a spiritually guided 'life force' through the hands.
REI = universal consciousness. Spirit or hidden source.
KI = life energy or Life force.
Modern science describes KI as a living electromagnet energy that is absorbed, stored and distributed by living cells. Most eastern healing practices are based on an awareness of KI and the necessity for it to flow through the body in a free and balanced way to maintain good health.
The Chinese call it 'CHI'. The Indians -'PRANA'. and the Sufis - 'BARAKA'. This powerful, yet gentle way of healing was developed in the early 20th century by a Japanese doctor, Mikao Usui. After his death it was taken to the USA and in the last 20 years it has spread to Europe and beyond. REIKI is usually taught in 3 levels. At the heart of the initiation into each level is an attunement process which opens and develops the students ability to channel Life Force.
But it need not stop there. Through personal and spiritual growth, with regular self/group and one to one treatments ,a practitioner can continue to raise the level of vibration of the energy that they can receive/ transmit for the benefit of themselves and those who come to them needing help with their own healing.
