Reiki is a Japanese word
meaning Universal Life (Rei) Energy (Ki). It is a
spiritual healing discipline and has its roots in
ancient Buddhist teachings. The founder of Reiki,
Dr Mikao Usui, spent many years seeking the knowledge
of healing and found information on Reiki in Sanskrit
texts. He received information on Reiki through a
vision when meditating on a Japanese mountain.
Reiki is the vital life energy which flows through
all living things and which can be activated for the
purpose of healing. Reiki practitioners believe that
everyone has the ability to connect to their own healing
energy and use it for the purposes of strengthening
the Ki (or life energy) of others. The Reiki therapist
channels the Ki through his or her hands to the recipient,
activating the body’s natural ability to heal
itself. When a person’s Ki is strong and flowing
freely, the body and mind are in a positive state
of health. However, the vital energy may become weak
or blocked, and this may lead to symptoms on a physical
or emotional level.
A Reiki practitioner will have received ‘attunements’
to open their healing channels. The guidelines for
the practise of Reiki are concerned with ethics and
behaviour and include living in harmony with others,
taking responsibility for one’s own health and
happiness, helping others, and being positive about
all things.
