What is Reiki?
Reiki History: Reiki was founded by Dr. Miako Usui, of Japan, in the early 1900s. Dr. Usui developed the energy practice of Reiki in order to contribute to the healing process at the physical and emotional levels.
He found inspiration and purpose in the exploration of a method that would allow him to tap into the energy that supplies all of life, the force of energy that makes plants grow and human’s develop, in order to restore imbalances in the living systems within living beings; including people, animals and plants.
The caveat was that he realized he needed to find a way to do this without depleting his own internal stores of energy or taking on any negative energy released from blockages within the individual’s he would come to facilitate healing.
Over several generations since Dr. Usui’s formalized the system of energy healing that came to be known as Reiki, the lineage of healers, often referred to as “grandmasters”, eventually began to share their insights with the Western world.
Dr. Usui’s technique of Reiki healing is what is now commonly referred to as Usui’s System of Natural Healing.
What is Reiki Healing Energy?
Reiki is a non-invasive healing process, involving a trained and attuned Reiki practitioner whom uses a technique of “laying on of hands” in order to guide what is referred to as “universal life force energy”, in an effort to promote healing through the mind-body-spirit connection that resides in each of us.
Reiki is based on the belief that life force energy flows through each of us at all times. If a person’s energy flow is blocked, it is regarded that this may be a contributing factor to the outcome of a stagnant or low, sick or stressed individual. The same may occur for your household pets, which is why Reiki for animals works, as well.
When energy within and around us is able to flow without blockage, we are more likely to feel happy and healthy. Essentially, this ancient healing practice can be thought of as an “energy transference” from the practitioner bringing Life Force Energy to the recipient, creating a feeling of peace and relaxation.
It’s helpful to visualize Reiki’s healing energy as being within and around you at all times. You are surrounded by energy all the time. Therefore, you are surrounded by potential Reiki energy right now; if you desire to tap in to it in order to help heal yourself or other’s you just have to tap into it!
How Does Reiki Work?
Reiki does not involve rubbing of muscles, as one might experience through massage. Instead, a trained Reiki practitioner places their hands just above or lightly touching the (fully-clothed) recipient allowing the energy to flow from the atmosphere, through the practitioner’s hands, as a conduit, and into the recipient, through the seven chakra centers of the body.
However, anyone can naturally generate positive energy through your hands. Think about it, what do you do when you have a physical injury in any way? You place your hands on that spot and help ease the pain. We also use our hands to send positive energy to another with a shake of the hand. If you are a pregnant mother, you spend much time rubbing and placing your hands on your belly, giving physical touch and warm energy to your baby-to-be. In essence, anyone can tap into the energy of Reiki.
