The name “Reiki” translates as “Universal Life
Force”. This is the unseen energy which fills the universe
and animates all living things.
Without it nothing could grow or heal. Applying Reiki to the body
is a gentle but powerful way to support and enhance the life force
energy in any living thing and is a useful aid to healing both physical
and emotional problems. It is suitable for any age group and all
states of health. Reiki cannot be used to do harm.
Reiki also has a gentle philosophy which acts to reduce stress
and tension in life. Many people who use Reiki find that, with time,
this philosophy profoundly alters how they view themselves and the
world.
THE REIKI PRINCIPLES:
JUST FOR TODAY:
I do not worry,
I am not angry,
I honour everyone around me,
I earn my living honestly,
I show gratitude to every living thing.
You may wish to think about the Reiki principles and see how they
could fit into your own life-style.
HOW IS REIKI USED?
Reiki can be used on many levels for healing
As a First-aid measure to reduce immediate pain and trauma.
As a full body treatment for a deeper healing to release any energy
blockages and relieve the ailments they cause. Most conditions will
respond.
To promote deep relaxation and well being .
One hour of Reiki is equivalent to five hours sleep.
The essence of Reiki is to balance and heal mind body and spirit
.Every system in the body has its own inner wisdom and “knows”
what it must do to give balance and harmony to the whole.
Healing is an individual process which takes its own time. All
that is needed to begin is a willingness and intent to engage in
the process and be part of it. No one else can heal you –
you heal yourself. Reiki works gently with both body and mind to
aid the process.
HOW IS REIKI GIVEN?
A full treatment is given with the recipient lying fully clothed
except for shoes on a couch or sitting in a chair. It is usually
a hands-on treatment with the therapist placing their hands on a
sequence of positions on the body to transmit the Reiki energy.
It is not intrusive or in any way embarrassing and most people
enjoy the contact. When receiving Reiki you will feel pleasant warmth
or tingling in the area being treated. Most people easily relax
deeply feeling a release of tension and anxiety which allows healing
to begin. In this state of deep relaxation the healing systems of
the body are free to make whatever adjustments are necessary to
improve health. Some people fall asleep during treatment and awake
fully refreshed and revitalised.
Reiki can help anyone – you do not have to be ill to benefit
from its calming and relaxing effect.
