Discover the Mysterious Healing Power of Reiki Energy

A Holistic Path to Physical and Emotional Wellness

reiki healing

Reiki is a non-invasive practice that is often used in conjunction with other forms of therapy, such as massage or acupuncture. The practitioner will typically place their hands on or just above the person's body in specific positions, which are believed to correspond with different energy centers in the body. This is done to help balance and unblock the flow of energy, which is believed to promote healing and relaxation. Crystals are also used as tools to help elevate the frequencies during a Reiki session.

One of the key principles of Reiki is that it is a holistic practice that addresses the person as a whole, rather than just treating specific symptoms or illnesses. It is believed that when the energy flow in the body is balanced and unblocked, the body is better able to heal itself and prevent future illnesses. This is why many people turn to Reiki as a way to improve overall well-being, rather than just treating a specific condition.

Reiki is also believed to have a positive effect on mental and emotional well-being. Many people report feeling calmer and more relaxed after a Reiki session, and some even say that it has helped them to overcome issues such as anxiety or depression. This is thought to be due to the fact that Reiki helps to balance and unblock the flow of energy in the body, which can help to release pent-up emotions and negative thoughts.

In the Western world, Reiki has been used in a variety of settings, including hospitals, clinics, and private practices. It is also increasingly being offered in spas, wellness centers, and even workplaces as a way to promote relaxation and reduce stress.

Despite its growing popularity in the Western world, Reiki is still considered to be a form of alternative therapy. This means that it is not widely accepted by mainstream medical professionals and is not covered by most insurance plans. However, many people swear by its benefits and continue to seek out Reiki practitioners for treatment.

 

What Are Some Reiki Symbols What Do They Do?

There are several symbols commonly used in Reiki, each of which is believed to have a specific purpose or effect.

The Power Symbol (Cho Ku Rei)

cho ku reiThe Power Symbol (Cho Ku Rei) is used to increase the strength and intensity of the Reiki energy. This symbol is used to amplify the flow of energy and to focus the practitioner's intent. It is also used to protect and purify the energy, by creating a barrier around the person or area being treated, to prevent negative energy from entering and to release any negative energy that may already be present. Practitioners often use this symbol at the beginning of a treatment to set the intention for the session and to create a safe and protected space for the healing to take place. 

The Mental/Emotional Symbol (Sei He Ki)

sei hi kiThe Mental/Emotional Symbol (Sei He Ki) is used to balance and clear the mind and emotions. This symbol is believed to help release negative thoughts and emotions, by promoting a sense of calm and balance in the mind and emotions. It's also used to help with emotional traumas, anxiety and depression. Additionally, it can be used to promote clarity of thought and to help the person being treated to let go of negative thoughts and emotions. Practitioners often use this symbol during a treatment to help release emotional blockages and to promote a sense of peace and well-being.

The Distance Symbol (Hon Sha Ze Sho Nen)

Hon sha ze sho nenThe Distance Symbol (Hon Sha Ze Sho Nen) is used to send Reiki energy to someone who is not physically present. This symbol is used to send healing energy to someone who is not in the same location as the practitioner, whether that person is in another room, another city or even another country. It is also used for past, present and future healing, by sending healing energy to the past to resolve past traumas, to the present to help with current issues and to the future to create positive outcomes. Practitioners often use this symbol to send healing energy to people who are not able to receive treatment in person.

The Master Symbol (Dai Ko Myo) 

Dai Ko MyoThe Master Symbol (Dai Ko Myo) is used to connect to the highest level of Reiki energy. This symbol is used to access the highest levels of Reiki energy, and is often used by advanced practitioners. It is also used to enhance the power of the other symbols, by amplifying their effects and increasing their effectiveness. Practitioners often use this symbol during a treatment to access higher levels of energy and to create deeper healing.

The Empowerment Symbol (Raku)

rakuThe Empowerment Symbol (Raku) is used for powerful healing and manifestation. This symbol is used to help release blockages, negative patterns and limiting beliefs, by promoting a sense of empowerment and confidence. It's also used to manifest positive outcomes and to help with self-healing. Practitioners often use this symbol at the end of a treatment to help the person being treated to feel more empowered and in control of their life.

It's important to note that not all Reiki practitioners use all of these symbols and some may use different symbols or variations. The symbols are also not considered necessary for the practice of Reiki, but are rather considered as a tool to focus the practitioner's intent and to enhance the energy flow.

In conclusion, Reiki is a form of alternative therapy that has been gaining popularity in the Western world in recent years. It is based on the idea that a practitioner can channel healing energy into a person's body to help balance and improve the flow of energy, which is believed to improve physical and emotional well-being. Reiki is a non-invasive practice that is often used in conjunction with other forms of therapy, and it addresses the person as a whole, rather than just treating specific symptoms or illnesses. Reiki is considered safe for most people, although it may not be suitable for everyone, and it's important to find a qualified and experienced practitioner.
