Reiki:

Reiki is a Japanese word meaning: REI: Universally or Spiritually guided, KI: Life Force Energy. Reiki is an art of healing by touch, a way of channelling the Life Force energy to restore perfect balance to the body on all levels, healing not only physical disorders, but also emotional and mental problems, as it opens the mind to the causes of disease and pain, helping with their elimination. It uses the Usui System of Natural Healing.

In the late 19th century, a Japanese Doctor, Mikao Usui, reintroduced the techniques he discovered from ancient Tibetan Sacred Texts. The Reiki practitioner is attuned according to such techniques in order to become a pure channel for the Universal Life Force Energy. As the Energy, that is, the Reiki, comes through the channel, it transmutes all blockages within the healer. The client never receives any personal energy whatsoever from the healer. During a Reiki treatment, both the client and the healer are benefited. Not only is none of the healer's energy ever used, but Reiki replenishes the healer as well.

Reiki heals our whole being. It is very powerful as a physical, emotional and mental healing tool, used on its own or together with other therapies and treatments, as it enhances their positive effects. Besides working towards the elimination of pain, disease, and emotional blockages, it also enables us to reconnect with our true Self, our Centre, Source of creativity, intuition and inner power, as it expands our self awareness and puts us in touch with whom we really are. Reiki brings wholeness and integration, harmony and freedom, making us aware of unconscious patterns, limiting beliefs and self-sabotaging processes that hinder our lives, preventing it from flowing happily and freely. Reiki sets us free and enables us to be who we really are, and to do what we are here to do, allowing our life to flow unrestrictedly towards wholeness, happiness and self-fulfillment. It heals and strengthens us, opens our heart to love and compassion, and frees our life.
