Reiki - Life
Energy Renewal 
Reiki is a simple hands-on art of energy renewal. The
energy is transferred via the practitioner's hands
to the recipient. Reiki restores harmony and balance by working on all
aspects of our being - physical,
emotional, mental, and spiritual. Reiki enhances energy levels, and
brings inner calm, relief from stress, and release of tension. By
increasing the vital force, Reiki can also help to improve physical
ailments.
Reiki energy
is felt as warm, chill, or tingling in the practitioner's hands. The
recipient will usually also experience some of these sensations. The
process of energy transfer is generally calming and comforting, even
meditative. Reiki is supportive, and facilitates personal growth and
transformation. It has been described as receiving unconditional love.
The word
Reiki is Japanese for universal life force. The universe gives us
boundless energy for all our needs. The Reiki practitioner is acting
only as a channel for this energy. Reiki is not associated with any
religion or other group, and it is universal in application.
I trained as a Reiki practitioner in 1995 with Barbara
McGregor, who undertook a seven-year aprentership with her teacher before
herself becoming a Reiki master and teacher. Her system of Reiki remains
unchanged from the traditional teachings of Dr. Usui.
