Reiki Healing - Universal Life Force Energy Healing
Reiki is a natural healing practice that originated in Japan. It is generally known as an ancient healing art that was rediscovered about a hundred years ago by Dr. Mikao Usui. Reiki is the Japanese word for Universal Life Force Energy. Rei = Universal, Ki = Life Force Energy. We all have Universal Life Force Energy, for it is the very “stuff” we are made of; it is our birth right. Even the science now recognized the fact that so called solid objects are just densely vibrating energy, that, in fact there is no solid matter. Spiritual science also states that “all is energy”. Reiki practitioners are said to ‘Channel’ this energy from the universe.
We are breathing because there is a life force energy surrounding us. This energy is called Prana in India, Chi in China and Ki in Japan, which flows in the human body through “Meridians” or “Chakras” and “Nadis” (energy channels). The energy flowing or surrounding us is also called “Aura” - a magnetic pull where humans are benefited through the universal energy. This life force energy can be witnessed amongst several aspects of experience like happiness, positive thoughts, and feelings etc. that are fastening themselves to the energy field. When the life forces are disturbed it causes disparity within the body and the mind leading to numerous health and psychological problems.
The flow of Pranic energy around the body can be blocked due to habitual negative thoughts, anger, rejection, regret, resentment and guilt. Our state of mind has a physical effect upon the body via the endocrine system. The endocrine system is the interface between the body and the mind.
Other factors which block the free flow of Prana are inappropriate diet, toxins and injuries in the body, incorrect body postures, incorrect breathing and so on. These factors lead to diseases in the body and mind. Reiki healing focuses upon the root cause of the disease, not upon treating symptoms.
Reiki benefits both the practitioner as well as the receiver. The energies are guided by the universal positives, therefore there are no side effects or harm in taking such life support.

Benefits of Reiki
In a traditional Reiki therapy session, the therapist uses meditation techniques to focus the energy in the hands and fingers. The hands are placed upon various energy centres (chakras) and meridians as required. The recipient may experience localised heat and energy movement in the body. The treatment in non-invasive and the recipient remains fully clothed. The Reiki techniques are “hands on healing” or “palm healing” which act as an alternative form of medicine in transferring the universal energies to the body to heal.
How does it work?
“The secret is to emerge from the ego, out of its prison, unite ourselves with the Divine, merge into Him, not to allow anything to separate us from Him. Then, once one has discovered this secret and realises it in one's being, pain loses its justification and suffering disappears. It is an all-powerful remedy, not only in the deeper parts of the being, in the soul, in the spiritual consciousness, but also in life and in the body.
There is no illness, no disorder that can resist if this secret is discovered and put into practice not only in the higher parts of the being, but in the cells of the body.”
