Today, we delve into the essence of Reiki, exploring its origins, principles, and the profound benefits it can bring to your life.
What is Reiki?
Reiki, pronounced as "ray-key," is a form of energy healing that originated in Japan in the early 20th century. Developed by Dr. Mikao Usui, Reiki is founded on the belief that a universal life force energy flows through all living things, and that this energy can be harnessed and channeled to promote healing, balance, and well-being.
The word "Reiki" itself is derived from two Japanese words: "Rei," meaning "universal," and "Ki," meaning "life energy." Together, they encapsulate the practice's focus on tapping into the universal life force energy that surrounds and permeates us all.
The Practice of Reiki
Reiki is typically performed by a trained practitioner who has undergone a series of attunements and teachings. The practice involves the laying on of hands, where the practitioner channels the universal life force energy and directs it towards specific areas of the body or the energy field of the recipient.
The experience of Reiki is deeply personal and can vary from person to person. Many describe feeling a sense of warmth, tingling, or a gentle flow of energy during a session. Others may experience a profound sense of calm, clarity, and relaxation.
