THOUGHTS ON REIKI HEALTH AND HEALING

HEAL YOUR LIFE WITH REIKI
OUR HUMAN POTENTIAL IS LIMITLESS…
…To use it well, we need to remove obstructing energies. There is so much hope in life when we choose to turn our eyes in a positive direction, to see, to understand, and to open our heart to new vistas.
Most of us seek to create a state of balance, harmony and well being in our life. We may employ many different kinds of external methods, and most of them bring us only temporary solutions. We seek external happiness because we have not realised our ability to find answers within. When it comes to holistic health we begin to investigate and work with the forces within ourselves. We learn to understand them: how they arise, how they affect us, how to deal with them, and how to balance our psycho-physical energies for betterment of life. I invite you to explore with me, in the following pages, some ideas that are helpful for understanding how we create a state of holistic health.
REIKI NATURAL HOLISTIC HEALING
Although healing has been practiced since ancient times in various cultures, REIKI, as we know it today, was rediscovered and founded by DR Mikao Usui of
DISPELLING THE MYTHS
It is not uncommon for there to be some element of doubt and misconceptions when it comes to holistic healing. As most of us do not know how to access the healing energy, it may seem like something impossible or unrealistic. How is it that putting ones hands on a person can promote health? How it is, that in some cases, Reiki healing can achieve results that were not previously possible? What really takes place? These are some of the questions we may have.
Let it be said here that Reiki healing is not a religion. It is not sorcery, it is not superstition, and it is not black magic or some ritual. Healing with Reiki simply means utilising what nature has already provided.
WHAT DOES HEALING MEAN?
To approach the subject of healing we need to first examine what the function of healing is. Healing means, to make WHOLE. What does this mean? It means establishing an integrated balance and synchronicity between our physical, emotional, mental and spiritual levels.
WHAT IS HOLISTIC BALANCE?
To understand how health is promoted by Reiki healing, first we must understand what actually constitutes balance and harmony. When the body operates at its optimum capacity, all energies flow freely and unobstructed throughout the entire body, mind, emotions and spirit. All energy to the bodily systems, organs, muscular tissues, bones, brain, senses etc. has no obstruction or blockages, even at a cellular level. This we call health or ‘ease’ as opposed to ‘dis-ease’. In this mode of balance and harmony, the body’s immune system will function well and protect against unwanted influences from outside or from within. It can even to a degree eliminate disagreeable substances harmful to the human body. Such a state of health and well being is only possible when there are no negative influences obstructing the flow of energy.
WHAT OBSTRUCTS BALANCE?
Now let us examine what interferes with this state of harmony and synchronicity. Most people are well aware that the body has certain requirements regarding food, liquids and exercise, rest and sleep etc. If any of these requirements are being ignored or abused, then of course we will suffer. But it doesn’t stop there. At another level we find that influences from negative mental and emotional patterns also affect the body. Scientists are well aware of this. Negative thoughts and emotions produce subtle and gross energy patterns which travel to different locations in the body and can alter the chemical reactions at a cellular level. Depending on the strength of the energy, and how often it is repeated, there will be varying results. From an accumulative point of view we can understand how this negative type of energy has potential to create health problems, and to further increase and become a chronic condition. Generally speaking, our habits, way of thinking, our emotions and living patterns will influence our health.
SUBCONSCIOUS AREA
From here we can move into the next and deeper level of the subconscious and unconscious drives and energies of which we are unaware. In this level, we will find influences capable of disturbing health. We may encounter unexplained phobias, left over past reactions, fears or irrational tendencies, sometimes remnants from the distant past, which can influence our present health status. As these energies belong to a more subtle and obscure area, dealing with them may take a little longer and need some added skill and understanding.
SPIRITUAL INFLUENCE
Lastly, we arrive at the spiritual level. From this level stems our values, ethics, aspirations, our innermost directions, and our connectedness and potential for ultimate completeness and wholeness. As this is actually our fundamental driving force, it is important to see and understand how this aspect of our being can influence us. No long term completeness or holistic balance can be achieved if this aspect is being overlooked, ignored or not considered. For example, if a person does not live according to their innermost convictions they create underlying tensions and problems which no amount of medicine will be able to rectify. It may even develop and manifest itself as depression.
To summarize the influences on holistic health and balance: we have the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual aspects to consider. But as well as these, there are influences from the environment, climate, living conditions, infectious diseases, genetic predispositions, viruses etc.
THE HEALING SESSION
When seeking to regain health through Reiki holistic healing method, it is helpful to understand the process of healing. At first, the healer will obtain information from the person. Apart from verbal communication, the healer will often scan the person with his/her hands. Most healers have a degree of sensitivity to subtle vibrations, and are therefore able to obtain intuitive feeling of which areas need healing. A person may have a specific complaint they want healing for. But this is regarded by the healer as the symptom of the underlying energies that have manifested as an ailment. The specific complaint is not separate from the energies which created it.
At the first level of a healing process, the healer may choose to clear the aura field. Thereafter he will place his/her hands on various points on, or above the body. Reiki healing energy is passed onto the person, and it will automatically go to where it is needed. From this healing, the grosser obstructive energies are being pacified and the blockages are being gradually released. As well as the initial body “tune up”, which is often given in three sessions, the person to be healed is usually offered a simple breathing technique to do at home. This provides an added means to strengthen the healing process. The healer may also give one or more affirmations to be repeated daily, to help assist with the healing process.
As the healing process progresses, Reiki may show up the underlying causes of the problem/s. This will allow the patient to understand them in the right context, and through this understanding be able to halt the obstructing energies. The healer will assist the person and lead them gently to clarity by discussing and exploring the findings and their implications. Therefore, Reiki natural healing is not a passive experience. The patient is actively involved in the process of restoring health and balance.
The concluding stages of healing deals with applying the newfound understanding and maintaining health. There may be an exploration of new openings and possibilities for positive changes and life expressions. It is often found, that after receiving Reiki healing, people begin to open new doors in life, and/or close old ones.
Lastly, it is important to understand that no promise of a specific result from healing is made. But, what generally happens when the psycho-physical energies flow freely, is; that the body has a chance to repair. Our body has a natural ability to heal and rebuild cells and restore itself; of this we need not have any doubts. So by Reiki natural healing, we give the body the best possible conditions for this to occur. If the person receiving Reiki healing has no apparent sickness, then Reiki will assist in providing ongoing good health and longevity.
When healing is conducted in a spirit of compassion, empathy, love, non-judgment, impartiality and respect, it has great power to heal.
Most Reiki healers will request a Reiki Exchange (fee). In some cases, an alternative kind of benefit of equal value may be accepted by mutual discussion and agreement. Other healers may choose to offer their service free.
A FEW EXAMPLES OF USES FOR
Stress management - Before/after surgery - Learning difficulties - Various Sicknesses/ailments - Phobias/fears/anxiety
Harmonizing the emotions - Relationship issues - Personal development - Positive projects - Spiritual development
Unfolding latent or unused potential/talent - Coping with grief/loss - Adolescent issues
So many conditions we are troubled by can be remedied by Reiki Healing. If a cure or resolution is not possible, then Reiki will assist the person in dealing with the situation constructively and positively and sometimes find solutions from other sources. Please note that holistic healing is not a quick fix solution, rather it is an ongoing, gradual process which enables a person to build health at a pace which is suitable for the individual.
Many people have found inspiration in their life by using Reiki Healing to enhance harmony and well being.
DISTANT HEALING
Distant healing means sending Reiki healing energy to a person who is not physically present. In distant healing the healer will obtain information and details regarding the person’s complaint. Communication between healer and person may take place either via letter, phone, or via an internet chat-messenger or email. To send distant healing to a person, the healer will use a photo of the patient in order to focus the healing energy.
You may wonder how healing can be effective without the patient being present. In this regard it should be remembered that although the body is obstructed by physical barriers, it is not so for the mind. Wherever mental energy is focused, there it will go, because mind is unobstructed by matter. Therefore, distant healing is also very effective.
SELF HEALING
One method available today which is constantly gaining popularity is REIKI Self-Healing. In less than 20 minutes a day, you can balance yourself with Reiki self-healing. The method is simple and can easily be learnt by anyone with an interest in holistic methods. In order to be able to practice self-healing, you will need to first have an Attunement from a qualified Reiki Master. The Reiki Master will connect you directly with the healing energy during the process of Attunement. After the Attunement, you are able to access the healing energy for your own healing, or for the healing of others.
