Spread Peace

     Reiki is an ancient healing art that has been around for thousands of years. The healing 'system' was rediscovered by Dr. Mikao Usui and has become one of the most popular energetic healing systems used today for self healing, stress reduction, relaxation and healing others. Reiki is considered to be an ancient Japanese stress reduction and relaxation technique that aids the receiver in healing not only the body, but mind and spirit as well. It is a whole body energetic treatment.

      The applications of Reiki go beyond just healing and much information is available all over the Internet. The more you advance in the art of Reiki, you more practical use you find for everyday living.

     Reiki has been misunderstood at times, from people who have never experienced it and perhaps, misguided about what it is or how it is received. A special transference of energy occurs between the practitioner and the receiver and this is done with the hands being still for a few minutes on various positions of a fully-clothed recipient or by intention.

     When people first hear about Reiki, they tend to think it is some form of massage. Reiki is NOT a massage, (at least not on the physical level anyway). The Master or practitioner does NOT moved their hands around on your body and it is NOT invasive or intrusive in any way!

     The hands are placed over your chakra centers and a few other positions and you remained fully clothed the entire time. You WILL feel the energy, even if you think you are not sensitive enough. You will be surprised at how much you'll feel while the Master or practitioner quietly does their work and you will leave with an extremely peaceful and relaxed feeling.

     At times, you are so relaxed it is possible you could fall asleep during the session, it does happen. That is never a problem because the work will continue until complete and you will have plenty of time to wake up and adjust to your mind state when you are finished.

Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful committed people can change the world. Indeed it's the only thing that ever has ~ Margaret Meade 

    
   Energy healing has been well researched, documented and widely accepted in the medical community and it's now one of the fastest-growing, complimentary healing systems in alternative medicine today.

      Early research showed that Reiki originated in the Tibetan Monasteries as a method of
self-healing for the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual bodies. At this time, there's
much more information about the evolution of Reiki as a Healing Art, as it has grown into a
technique for sharing powerful healing with others.

     Much more research and information is
now available about the origins of this most beautiful healing system and it is advised for
anyone interested to realize that in matters on the spirit levels, not everyone has the same
beliefs or background knowledge. However, there are many resources to do your own research and I encourage you to do so.

      One thing most definitely true about Reiki is that it's an ancient healing art which draws
energy into the practitioner or Master's body and is then transferred to other living beings. This energy "flows through" the person rather than coming "from" them. The vibration of Reiki energy is quite high in frequency and therefore, provides the recipient a layer of natural protection from picking up any of the practitioners own personal energy and vice verse.   

      Once initiated, the energy transferal happens automatically when your hands are placed on any living being or by intent and focus. Through the use of the ancient Sanskrit symbols, healing energy can be used for different types of treatment and each one allows the practitioner to work on various layers of energetic disturbance or blockages, which then helps release that energy from the recipiant.

      Reiki is safe and non-invasive. It can be done with or without you even being present
although if you've never had the experience of Reiki firsthand, then you probably want to
feel the hot hands and the direct effect of the energy transferred to your body. It is extremely relaxing, calming and frequently reduces and alleviates pain, discomfort and
disease of any kind. Some conditions require more than one session and although Reiki does
have permanent and lasting healing effects, often times people will go back to old habits and therefore, old energy blocks can absolutely return just as fast. If you are under the care and treatment of a medical physican or doctor, Reiki should be used as a compliment to your regular treatment, not a replacement.

      Reiki is a gift of healing. It is Universal Life Force using Healing Rays of energy via ancient Sanskrit symbols which help direct and guide the levels and direction of the healing. Any healing can take place without you even being physically present in the room.  You are ultimately in charge of your own healing and every person can do it - Reiki will help you on your path towards SELF-healing by working with your own natural inner process.

  Many Reiki practitioners experience rapid growth once initiated and a heightened sixth
sense. You should speak to your Reiki Master about advancing on the path of self healing
and/or helping others to heal.
