The Benefits of Reiki: How Energy Healing Can Transform Your Life

Discover the Transformative Power of Reiki Therapy

Who would have thought that something as simple as laying your hands on another person’s body could have such a transformative effect on their general well being. With the practice of Reiki, this is what can happen.

Reiki, has it origins in early 20th century Japan. It is a extensive touch therapy designed to minimize stress and promote relaxation.

It works by transferring universal energy from a practitioner to a patient to facilitate healing on physical, emotional, and spiritual basis.

It can help alleviate any emotional, mental, or physical pain or trauma that is being experienced, and has become a go-to technique for holistic practitioners around the world.

Reiki” is comprised of two Japanese words: Rei, meaning “God’s wisdom/Higher Power” and Ki: “Life force energy”.

Combining the two word to form Reiki, you instill in your body “spiritually guided life force energy”.

What is the basic principles and how does Reiki work.

Reiki interacts with the body to balance the body’s main energy points.

These energy points are know as known as chakras,

Chakras when stimulated correctly can nurture physical, mental, and emotional well being.

In our own experience at the Kushi Learning Centre, students who practice or receive Reiki training often describe a sense of profound relaxation and calm.

Why Professional Reiki Training is Crucial for Effective Healing

Like any subject you approach for the first time, Reiki should be navigated in a structured, systematic manner following a predefined curriculum and training path.

Although the principles behind Reiki are simple, you will only able to explore its full potential by receiving guidance from a fully qualified professional.

Enlisting the services of a professional will ensure you understand the basic core principles which are:

• Understanding the energy makeup of the human body
• Why intention is important
• The ethical concerns of energy healing and the body

In addition, professional Reiki training encompasses attunements, which are unique to each individual.

Here a Reiki master creates openings and balances and connects the student’s channels of energy to the universal life energy.

Attunening the body in this way is essential to gain the maximum understanding and energy boost from each Reiki session.

Also during the training students are shown a variety of hand positions and advanced Reiki techniques which they can then in turn adapt to the needs of their clients when they establish their own practices.

Providing Reiki skills should not be a solitary experience and the correct Reiki training will allow you to build a community of other practitioners where you can share experiences, build up your skill base and empower your practice and those that you heal.

More on the history of Reiki

Reiki works on the basis of there being a universal life force that flows through every individual.

In Reiki it is understood that this life force of energy can be harnessed for good in all of us.

The practical application of Reiki works in the following way.

The hands of the Practitioner are place on or just above the body. Their hands acts as a conduit for the energy moving through the human body.

The practitioner then guides their hands across the body. The client often noting they feel a release or a tingling sensation coming across their whole body at this point

Once the tingling reduces they then feel a deep sense of relaxation.

What is happening here is energy is moving around the body and unblocking any areas where it cannot flow.

Reiki is designed not to treat just one specific part or area of a body, but instead works on the body in its totality.

Common Myths About Reiki

There are a number of common myths about Reiki which we will address here.

• Reiki is a religious faith that requires strong adherence to a set of rules. Wrong. Reiki is not a religious belief system. What it is is a universal technique to channel energies through the body for relaxation and does not require you to follow a set of beliefs in a religious faith
• Reiki does not imbue you with superpowers! What it is a universal energy system which if attuned correctly through your body can allow for spiritual healing and much better feeling within ones self
• The final myth is that Reiki can heal conventional illness. This is definitely a myth. Reiki cannot replace proper medical care. What it can be seen as is a complement to medical treatments but not a magical solution to cure all health problems.

Benefits of Reiki

• Physical and Health Benefits. Reiki has been used in promoting and enhancing the body’s healing process. This is particularly the case in reducing types of pain and inflammation.
• Reiki has been shown to improve sleep quality as can be seen in this study of hospital nursing professionals. Sleep deprivation can have an extremely negative effect on the body by lowering the immune system defenses and impairing judgement of daily tasks, affecting work performance.
• Mental and Emotional Health Benefits. Regular Reiki sessions can bring a state of calmness to the body. It can also lead to greater focus and raised mental awareness. Reiki also helps to reduce stress and anxiety by inducing a state of deep relaxation.
• This relaxation response can lower cortisol levels, which are linked to stress in the body and bad health, and promote a sense of calmness and tranquility. Regular Reiki sessions can lead to improved mental clarity, better focus, and enhanced emotional resilience. It can also help expel negative feelings in the body and provide an opportunity for individuals to address past hurts.
• It can also play a part in improving Emotional Intelligence, allowing an individual to become the owner of their own personal feelings and in turn improve relationships with those around them.
• Spiritual Growth and Connection. Reiki can open up oneself to have a deeper understanding of the universe. It encourage focus on the inner self which in turn can lead to a higher state of consciousness, bringing them close to their life’s purpose
• Reiki is also good at bringing a person into the present moment, being mindful of what is around them in the Here and Now. This can bring with it reduced levels of anxiety as the mind is not constantly running back and forward, from past to the future.
