About Reiki
Alight Healing
What is Reiki?
Reiki is an ancient Japanese technique for deep relaxation that also promotes healing and balancing of the body's aura, or energy field. It's done through touch.
The word Reiki comes from the Japanese words Rei and Ki; Rei means universal, meaning that it is present everywhere, and Ki is life energy, therefore, Reiki means universal life energy. It can also be defined as spiritually guided life energy, since energy can be accumulated and guided by the mind.
Life energy is the non-physical energy that animates all living things. If your life energy is low or restricted/blocked, you are more vulnerable to illness. Life energy plays an important role in everything we do. It is the primary energy of our emotions, thoughts, and spirituality.
Reiki is the practice of energy balancing. It is considered a healing modality/alternative therapy, and it's a natural form of pain and stress relief that can be used on both people and animals. Reiki supports the body to allow for healing on a physical, mental and emotional level.
About Reiki
What is a session like?
A session can be between 30, 45, or 60 minutes long.
For the actual session, the recipient will rest comfortably either on a massage table or a yoga mat on their back with their shoes removed. Reiki can also be performed with the recipient sitting comfortably in a chair as well.
Unlike massage therapy, clothing is not removed, and a recipient of Reiki is always fully clothed; loose, comfortable clothing is always best. A session can either be hands-on, where the practitioner will apply a light touch during the session, or hands-off where they will hold their hands slightly above the body.
The session begins with the Reiki practitioner placing their hands in specific positions either on the person’s head or feet. A recipient of Reiki might feel a warming sensation or a tingling during the session. Sometimes nothing is felt other than complete relaxation.
Sessions are currently offered via online sessions using distance Reiki.
Beyond The Physical
What is Distance Reiki, and does it really work?
Distance Reiki is effective according to the Hermetic Law of Similarity, which states that we are all connected because we are all energy-matter, and we’re all part of a larger whole. Distance, space and time is no barrier for Reiki.
The practitioner can simply direct their thoughts, intentions and energy to the recipient, no matter where the recipient is in the world. Setting up an appointment to receive the energy helps the recipient open up to receiving the energy.
During the session, the recipient may lay down or sit somewhere comfortably. A clear mind is always suggested in order to really benefit from the session.
Reiki can be compared to the concept of praying. Prayer works in large part because we believe we can send others our love, blessings, and good intentions by connecting to a higher power. Reiki works on similar principles, using universal life force energy derived from our creator, the source, a higher power, the universe, or whatever name we prefer to use, and channeling the energy to the recipient.
