What Is Reiki?

Reiki masters attempt to heal people by adjusting their energy field with the help of spiritual energy. The belief is that physical ailments is a result of an unbalanced or out of control emotional body. By working on the flow of energy throughout a person's body it is thought that physical healing would be an indirect benefit.

Does Reiki Work?

Some say that it does. If anyone loving and caring comes into your energy field there's a tendency to feel loved. Compassion heals many emotional wounds. It is a well known fact that stress, isolation, and negative emotions can lead to disease and an early death.

But Reiki masters believe there's much more to it than that. They believe they are channeling the life force of the universe through them. They believe that spirit is unblocking energy pathways. A free flow of energy in a person's body can lead to healing according to some.

The problem with Reiki and all other forms of energy healing is that results are subjective. How much is a result of a placebo effect? How much is a result of the caring and love a Reiki master has for their clients? And finally how much comes from 'the universe', God's love, spirit, etc?

It's hard to quantify the benefits of reiki. However if it feels good and works for you, that's all that matters. Healing is much more than taking medications and surgery. Emotional and mental well being is sometimes just as important.

Dis - ease is a lack of ease. It's stress, worry, a feeling of unworthiness, despair, and hopelessness. If reiki helps it's worth every penny.

My Experience With Reiki.

I believe that whether energy healing works or not depends on the facilitator more than anything else. It also depends on the emotional state of the practitioner when you're getting you're treatment!

In other words, if your Reiki Master is feeling good and 'in the flow', the results are likely to be better than expected. If they're preoccupied with personal problems, stress, anxiety, etc., your Reiki session is likely to be compromised, - perhaps in a big way.

e.g. I went to an energy healer once and could not believe the results. One session is all it took to take care of serious health issues I was facing. The day before that, the emergency room at the hospital wanted to charge me thousands of dollars for expensive tests. The cost of my energy healing session? $110. What a bargain.

However I went to the same healer a few years later and felt nothing at all. Why was that?

1. Was it because my problems were not related to an imbalance in my energy field?
2. Was it that energy healing doesn't work anymore?
3. Or is it because my practitioner was distracted?

I believe it was how my healer was feeling, but once again, how can you prove or disprove something like this?

Reiki Vs Energy Healing.

I'm not convinced there is a difference. I've had Reiki sessions before and felt absolutely nothing. Other times it seemed to work. Likewise I've had 'energy healing' sessions many times. Sometimes they worked and sometimes I didn't feel any different.

I've actually don't energy healing and worked with Reiki masters. I never desired to be certified or do it as a living because I didn't believe in the 'science' behind Reiki. But that doesn't mean it has no value.

In my opinion, Reiki is working with energy. And energy work or healing is working with energy as well. There is no difference.

What's important is your willingness to accept the energy and love of others. If you can do this every day, you will feel loved. A connection with God and others goes a long way in spiritual healing.

Reiki Energy Healing.

Here's my advice to you.

• Surround yourself loving and caring people. Do not live in isolation.
• Feel connected with everything and everyone.
• Eliminate stress from your life if possible.
• Meditate every day.
• Feel the flow of energy throughout your body.
• Find Reiki masters and energy healers that have your best interests at heart.
• Accept the love of God, the universe, all living things, and people who are important in your life.

Also if you go to a Reiki session and feel nothing, ask yourself this.

• Was I receptive to a miracle?
• Was my practitioner in the flow?

Don't give up on energy healing. Try it a few times. Have treatments from different masters. If you don't have any positive experiences after several attempts Reiki may not be for you. However be open to good things. Be positive. Accept love. Give love.
