WHAT IS REIKI?

Quote: Adelle Davis
'As I see it, everyday you do one of two things; build health or produce disease in yourself.'
Quote: Hippocrates (460BC-377BC)
'The natural healing force within each one of us, is the greatest force in getting well.'

Reiki pronounced .... Ray - Key

Rei - meaning Universal Spiritual Conciousness.

Ki - meaning Life Force; energy which flows through and surrounds all living things.

Rei and Ki can therefore be defined as 'spiritually guided Life Force', which is a good working definition of the word, as you will agree after experiencing this Healing Energy for yourselves.

Reiki is a special kind of Life Force, which is channelled by someone who has received the Reiki Attunements.
Physical sickness and pain are not the only forms/causes of illness in the body: Stress, Anger, Fear, Grief, Loneliness etc. are all diseases (dis-ease) of the mind, and are invariably the root cause of physical problems presented.
These attunements, conducted by a Reiki Master, adjust the physical and etheric body of the student to a higher vibration; thuse clearing and expanding their healing channel for the energy to flow.
Following attunements, the 'student' will then be able to channel this energy for the good of others.
This healing energy; this precious Gift; should only ever be used for the highest good of the patient/recipient.
During a healing session, the Reiki energy is automatically drawn through the Healer and passed via the healers hands into the patient's body and mind. It instinctively travels to the areas of the body which are out of balance. Sickness, aches and pains, for example; all occur when the body/mind is un-balanced. Reiki triggers the body to commence the healing process, thus working to correct this imbalance.
Depending on the severity of the complaint, relief will be automatically obtained on some level - even if not immediately apparant. However, very many of my patients experience dramatic results; either during the healing session or within the following few hours.
There are only two exceptions to administering/receiving Reiki.
1. Never prior to an anaesthetic, as the effects of anaesthesia would be diminished. Not a happy thought!
2. Never to a possible fracture, as healing would immediately commence, thus causing problems when setting the bones! ...once the patient has had the operation and once bones have been set, we can, of course start the Reiki!
The recipient will always receive the correct amount of Reiki energy as applicable to their needs in order to promote and facilitate natural healing on mental, emotional and physical levels.
Every patient I have ever treated, has expressed benefits they have experienced during the session. In the conducting of a Reiki healing session, it is normal for a sensitive practitioner to become aware of areas of the patient's body, which are out of balance. This would be in addition to any known presenting complaint. Potential further problems can therefore be identified and will naturally receive Reiki during the session.
Further Indications for the use of Reiki
Reiki is excellent for supporting a person; eg when studying, sitting an exam, attending an interview, visiting the dentist, taking a driving test, attending a funeral etc.
It is also very helpful when trying to lose weight, or when wanting to break a smoking, eating or alcahol habit. Recreational or medicinal drug dependancy, also.
Pregnant mothers and their un-born babies benefit greatly from the relaxing effects of Reiki, together with children, the elderly, animals, plants etc etc. Animals often display an uncanny knowledge, moveing away when they have received enough Reiki!
Reiki can easily be sent to any person; or to any situation in the world, by Distance Healing.
It can JUST as easily be sent to the person next door! I channel Reiki through the use of my hands and mind.
Many people in today's world have difficulty in accepting that Reiki is such a pure and simple form of healing. They feel that unless it is complex with rigid rules to be followed, and set procedures; that it cannot possibly be effective!
Not so!!
At it's most simple; the healer has only to place their hands on or over the patient, with the intention to channel Reiki; for the Reiki Energy to commence flowing and healing!
I warmly invite you to experience it and to see for yourselves!
