The word Reiki is made of two Japanese words – Rei means "divine wisdom" or "the Higher Power” and Ki is “life force energy”. So Reiki is actually “spiritually guided life force energy.” Reiki is a Japanese technique for reducing stress, promoting healing, and relaxation. It is referred to as palm healing or hands-on healing and is based on the idea that an unseen “life force energy” flows through us. If our “life force energy” is low, we are more likely to get sick or feel stress. Reiki is a simple, natural method of spiritual healing and self-improvement. Reiki balances the human energy fields and assists in aligning your Chakras. The Reiki practitioner assists clients to heal themselves spiritually, mentally, emotionally and physically. Using Healing Symbols, the Reiki practitioner channels the Universal Life Force energy allowing it to flow where it is needed to bring the energy centers into alignment.
