What is Reiki?

The word Reiki (Japanese) or Sekhem (Kemetic) means "Universal or Spiritual" (Rei) "Life Force Energy" (Ki).

Reiki is a traditional Japanese method of energy healing, which induces relaxation, reduces stress, and enhances the body's natural ability to heal itself on all levels of being—physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual.

Reiki Therapy consists of a gentle flow of conscious life force energy being channeled through the therapist to the recipient using gentle touch or the ancient art of distance healing.

 

What are the Benefits of Reiki?

Reiki works on a causal level opening the way to wellness by removing energetic debris from the aura, which in turn impacts the body on all other levels—physical, mental, and emotional.

Of its many therapeutic benefits, the most well-known are that Reiki promotes deep relaxation, physical and emotional pain relief, emotional harmony, a healthy immune system, stress-reduction, less bodily tension, and more restful sleep. It also enhances stamina, intuition, mental clarity, meditation, spiritual awareness, intuition, and self-awareness.

One of the most powerful uses for Reiki therapy is emotional healing from trauma because it is a very self-paced, non-invasive way to work on the subtle energies that influence the way in which we respond to happenings within our environment.

Due to the detoxifying quality of Reiki and yoga (meditation and breathwork), releasing pent-up emotions that are stored as tension in various areas of the body is another unique healing benefit of a continuous Reiki therapy plan, such as my Emotional Healing Program.

 

How Reiki Works

Because Reiki is Universal Life Force Energy it is infinite, unbound by time or space, conscious, omniscient (all-knowing), omnipresent (everywhere), and omnipotent (all-powerful).

Each Reiki therapist is attuned to specific healing frequencies within the Universal Life Force, and can channel them
