Spiritually Guided Life Force Energy
 
It is the God-consciousness called Rei that guides the life force called Ki in the practice we call Reiki. Therefore, Reiki can be defined as spiritually guided life force energy. This is a meaningful interpretation of the word Reiki. It more closely describes the experience most people have of it; Reiki guiding itself with its own wisdom, and being unresponsive to the direction of the practitioner. Reiki is a powerful natural system which unlocks the inner flow of vital energy. Reiki treats the whole body rather than addressing specific symptoms. Reiki provides symptomatic relief without suppressing symptoms. Reiki is given for the primary purpose of stress reduction and relaxation. Reiki enhances the immune system’s ability to heal itself.

Reiki is a powerful tool for personal development and spiritual awareness. Reiki is effective in creating high-level wellness and reducing the cost of health. REIKI IS SAFE TO USE ANYTIME, ANY PLACE, AND IN ANY SITUATION. Reiki is often confused with other therapies and belief systems. This is a direct result of Reiki being used in conjunction with, but not distinguished from, other therapies. It is important to clear up any misunderstanding the recipient may have. A true understanding of this healing therapy should also include what Reiki is not. Reiki is Not: A religion, cult or belief system A dogma or specific doctrine A form of psychic healing, hypnosis or a form of mind control A psychic surgery technique A type of massage or massage technique THE BENEFITS OF REIKI Reiki is healing energy in its truest sense. When the Reiki practitioner channels this life energy through their hands to the recipient, it activates the body's natural ability to heal itself. The energy goes to the deepest levels of the person's being, where illnesses have their origin. It works wherever the recipient needs it most, releasing blocked energies, cleansing the body of toxins and working to create a state of balance. It reinforces the recipient's ability to take responsibility for their life, and helps them to make the necessary changes in attitude and lifestyle to promote a happier and healthier life. To accept and work with Reiki is to honor yourself and others. It is a beautiful gift, but most of all it is a gift we can all share! How Does Reiki Heal? We are all alive because life force energy is flowing through us. Life force energy flows within the physical body through pathways called chakras, meridians and nadis. It also flows around us in a field of energy called the aura. The free and balanced flow of energy is the cause of health. It is this energy that animates the physical organs and tissues as it flows through them, nourishing the organs and cells and supporting their vital functions. When the flow of life force energy is disrupted, it causes diminished functioning within one or more of the organs and tissues of the physical body. Life force energy is responsive to thoughts and feelings. When we have positive optimistic thoughts, we increase our flow of energy. When we have negative thoughts our energy is disrupted and diminished. These negative thoughts and feelings attach themselves to the energy field and disrupt its flow. When a person receives a Reiki treatment, the Reiki energy assesses where the person has blocks and then directs the healing energy. The Reiki energy then works with the negative thoughts and feelings that are blocking one's natural flow. By flowing through the affected parts of the energy field and charging them with positive energy, Reiki clears, straightens and heals the energy pathways, thus allowing healthy energy to flow in a natural way.
