REIKI
(ray-key) is a Japanese word meaning "Universal Life Force", or the
energy all around us. Reiki is a safe body therapy technique that
balances the body, mind and spirit, and facilitates the healing of the
whole person. REIKI involves the use of gentle, light touch applied to
the body to transmit healing energy.
What is its Origin?
This
healing art uses the same techniques as did the Lamas of ancient Tibet,
who are the originators of the REIKI system. Thousands of years old,
it was a hidden art until rediscovered by Dr. Mikao Usui, a Christian
minister living in Japan. He practiced and taught the REIKI principles
and healing methods throughout his life. The knowledge was preserved
and passed on to others, and eventually was brought to the West in the
1970's. Many REIKI Practitioners are now trained by Certified REIKI
MASTERS to carry on the tradition of the Usui System of Natural Healing.
How does REIKI work?
Illness
can be the result of a blockage of energy caused by lifestyle habits,
stress, or negative emotions. When the body systems are under stress or
strain, an adverse or unnatural flow can result, causing dysfunction or
dis-ease. Non-invasive and gentle, REIKI opens up the energy pathways,
removes blocks, and re-awakens in healing capacity within all of us.
It is this free flowing, balanced energy int he system which facilitates
the healing processes of the body, mind, and spirit, and fosters
feelings of relaxation, wholeness, and well-being.
