History of Reike and its Benefits
Reiki healing is growing in popularity around the Western
world. The word "Reiki" is Japanese and means "Universal Life Energy." A
Japanese theologian named Dr. Mikao Usui founded the Reiki healing system at
the end of the last century. He discovered the ancient healing system after
studying Sanskrit texts in a Buddhist monastery. Though the texts revealed
the knowledge needed, Dr. Usui still had to undergo three weeks of fasting
and meditation before receiving the healing empowerment of the Reiki system.
An American woman named Hawayo Takata brought the Reiki system to the
Western world. Takata was cured of a tumor at a Reiki clinic in Japan, and
then totally dedicated her life to Reiki. She was trained by a Japanese
master named Dr. Chujiro Hayashi. During her life, Takata created 22 Reiki
Masters to carry on the methods.
Channeling Healing Energy
Reiki is best known for being used as a channel for energy to provide a safe
healing method. It promotes good health and well being and can be
experienced by people of all ages, whether in good health or stricken by
illness. By replenishing a person's life force energy, their body's immune
system can be strengthened. This helps the body in its fight against
disease. A Reiki healer channels energy to a welcoming receiver. The person
receiving Reiki experiences a warm, relaxing feeling in their soul, mind and
body. The experience is just as much spiritual as it is physical.
Benefits of Reiki
Reiki healing offers many benefits. It is often used for stress management
and to help the body fight and prevent sickness. As Reiki energy is
channeled to an individual, they can relax and relieve their stress. This
helps the person feel better and think more clearly. The more Reiki energy
they can receive, the better they will feel. When a sick or stress-prone
person receives Reiki, their body becomes free to help itself become
healthier than ever. Other benefits of Reiki include healed relationships,
finding one's Divine Purpose, manifesting life goals, awakening the healer
within, cleansing the body from toxins, enhancing creativity, and many
others.
To offer so many benefits, Reiki is surprisingly gentle and nurturing. It is
not a harsh medical treatment, but can be far more powerful for the
individual who opens their mind, heart and soul to the process wholly and
freely.
How it Works
After an initiation to Reiki, called Reiki Attunement, and learning about
Reiki symbols, the individual is introduced to Reiki energy through several
methods, including crystals and crystal healing, drumming healing,
meditations, and other stress management techniques.
Even many modern chiropractors, psychotherapists, medical doctors,
psychologists and other medical professionals are beginning to realize the
benefits of Reiki. More and more people are tapping into Reiki energy to
experience a fuller, healthier life.
