Reiki

Reiki is energy healing; we are made from energy, surrounded by energy and therefore it makes sense to channel that energy to heal and repair. Like electricity power moving through a socket in the wall to your appliances, we do not question that it is there. It just is. In order to appreciate Reiki, you must trust its presence. Reiki is a very old system that was rediscovered in the late 1800s by a Japenese Buddhist monk - Dr Mikao Usui. Usui studied Qi Gong a discipline designed to improve health through meditation, breathing practices and slow moving exercises. it focuses on the development and use of Ki or life energy and includes methods for healing by the laying on of hands.

Reiki is:

  • The Reiki system of healing uses universal life force energy
  • Reiki originated in Japan with the founder
  • Safe: No one can do any harm with the Reiki energy
  • Intelligent: The energy knows where to go and what to do to help you
  • Natural: No other tools or instruments are needed besides the Reiki practitioner, who channels the Reiki energy through their hands
  • Gentle: The practitioner places their hands gently on the body or just above the body. Practitioners don’t use massage or manipulation
  • The treatment is performed with the client fully clothed

The practitioner is a channel for the Reiki energy which flows through them into their hands.

They use a set of hand positions during a Reiki session which are related to the seven chakras; the chakra system, known as the seven main energy centres. These energetic portals are located from the base of the spine to the top of the head, beginning with the root, followed by the sacral, then the solar plexus, upward to the heart, continuing to the throat, then the third eye, and ascending to the crown. Reiki contributes to the cleansing of these main centres which are used to receive and omit energy.

The Potential Benefits of Reiki:

  1. Promotes Harmony & Balance: Reiki helps to promote harmony and balance. It is an effective, non-invasive energy healing that enhances the body’s natural healing ability whilst energising and promoting overall wellness. Reiki works directly on restoring balance on all levels and works directly on the problem and condition instead of just masking or relieving symptoms. When referring to balance, we mean mental and emotional balance.
  2. Creates deep relaxation and helps the body release stress and tension: What many people enjoy about a reiki treatment is it allows them time to themselves where they aren’t ‘doing’ but just ‘being’. Clients have reported feeling more clear, peaceful, relaxed and lighter in themselves. Reiki provides a space where you can be more aware of what is going on inside your body and mind. To learn to listen to your own body and make wise decisions regarding your well-being from this place. Being more present means you are in your body, which helps you to access even more that inner knowing and wisdom that we all have but often don’t have time to connect to.
  3. Dissolves energy blocks and promotes natural balance between mind, body and spirit: Regular Reiki treatments can bring about a calmer and more peaceful state of being, in which a person is better able to cope with everyday stress. This mental balance also enhances learning, memory and mental clarity. Reiki can heal mental/emotional wounds and can help alleviate mood swings, fear, frustration and even anger.
  4. Clears the mind and improves focus as you feel grounded & centred: Reiki can support you in staying centred in the present moment rather than renumerating about the past or anxieties about the future. It can strengthen your ability to accept and work with the way events are unfolding even when they don’t follow your desires or timetable. You begin to react to situations, people and yourself in a supportive way rather than acting out of habit.
  5. Aids better sleep: The number one outcome of receiving a Reiki session is relaxation. When we’re relaxed, we sleep better, our bodies heal better, we think more clearly, and we relate to each other more genuinely. Often clients will experience deep relaxation during their Reiki session and sometimes a deep sleep during the session as well.
  6. Accelerates the body’s self-healing ability as you start to return to your natural state: Reiki healing quickly returns you to your natural state, or at least gets your body moving in the right direction. That means your breathing, heart rate and blood pressure improve. Breathing deeper and easier is one of the first things to happen during a self-practice or treatment received from someone else. When we breathe better, our minds naturally settle- Science supports that. As your respiration deepens your body moves into parasympathetic nervous system (PNS) dominance i.e. the rest/digest phase. Your body was made to function primarily in the rest/digest phase rather than the more commonly experienced fight/flight phase.
  7. Helps relieve pain and supports the physical body healing: On the outside looking in, a Reiki treatment might appear to be merely a sequence of hand placements, it works to restore balance on the deepest possible level. It encourages your system to improve your body’s vital functions (breathing, digesting and sleeping) so your physical systems function optimally. On the physical level, Reiki can help to relieve pain from migraine, arthritis, sciatica ~ just to name a few. It can also helps with symptoms of asthma, chronic fatigue, menopausal symptoms, and insomnia.
