The word Reiki is Japanese and in it’s literal translation means ‘spiritual or sacred energy’.  Reiki is a specific frequency of energy vibrating at a very high rate that comes directly from the Source of all things and is guided by that Higher Intelligence for healing purposes. Reiki is an all loving intelligent energy that when received, helps the body and mind restore it’s natural balance. The ability to channel Reiki comes from being ‘attuned’ by a Reiki Master to it’s vibrational frequency.

      Energy is all encompassing and everything has energy within it. The energy that flows through our bodies is affected by our emotions and over time there can be a build up which can cause either a depletion of energy or blockages and restrictions within the flow of energy which can then lead to us experiencing physical pain or other undesirable symptoms. By calling in Reiki to enter the body, the influx of high vibrational energy stimulates and accelerates the body’s own natural healing abilities. It works on removing blockages and realigning and strengthening our own natural flow of energy. This is turn helps us to realign ourselves physically, emotionally, spiritually and mentally by balancing the whole self.

      On a physical level Reiki improves and accelerates the body’s own ability to heal itself and cleanses the body of toxins and impurities. It also helps to alleviate or remove pain and other symptoms.

      Emotionally Reiki encourages you to release and let go of negative emotions and promotes and encourages the use of loving and beneficial qualities and emotions.

      On a spiritual level Reiki helps you connect to your inner self and embrace acceptance of self and others.  It encourages you along your path of spiritual development by facilitating your understanding of your purpose on earth and increasing spiritual awareness. 

      Mentally Reiki helps you to let go of negative thoughts and beliefs and assist in breaking negative habits. It also supports the change to a more positive and peaceful state of mind.

      Exact results are impossible to predict as everyone is different and the healing is taking place on all levels, and different levels of healing take place at different stages for different people. For example, it will often be the case that a physical pain is the cause of seeking treatment. In some cases the pain will indeed be removed either quickly or after several treatments. In other cases emotional healing is needed to occur first and the Reiki will work on that by helping you release anger, hurt or fear or any negativity that needs to be addressed or released before physical healing can start to take place.

      To receive Reiki you should be lying down in a comfortable position and if possible have soft relaxing music playing in the background, although this is not necessary.  A Reiki session consists initially of me carrying out an energetic scan to sense which areas may need more attention. Then the intention of sending Reiki is set and the Reiki starts to flow. The Reiki is channelled through me and comes out through my hands. I move my hands around your body as needed, starting at the head working down the body to the feet and back up to the head again. In a hands-on session, depending on preference and appropriateness, this can be done by either lightly resting my hands on your body or by leaving my hands a few inches away from your body. In distant healing sessions the same principles are applied just using an energetic substitute to direct the energy which goes straight to the person.  Some people find this concept hard to accept, but it really does work just as well as in person, and has the added benefit of the receiver being able to lie down on their own bed during the healing and not have to worry about driving home afterwards, but often may just choose to fall asleep or continue to relax and enjoy the depth of relaxation achieved. Once the session is over it is recommended that you drink a glass of water, and if getting up – do so slowly, sitting up at first for a while before standing. If on standing you still feel a little light headed, stamping your feet on the ground and or clapping your hands helps to ground you.

      Reiki can be received whether you are in direct contact with the sender or not. The energy goes wherever it is asked to go through the intention of the sender and is not restricted by physical proximity. It may seem strange, but it is not affected by our perception of time and space and therefore can instantly flow into whatever person, animal or object it is intended for. Reiki sent at a distance is equally as effective as when the hands are laid directly on you. The Reiki, being intelligent, goes where it is needed, once the intention has been set.  As the sender, from a distance I can just as easily energetically sense where the Reiki wishes to go, and where it is perhaps in need of attention, and the Reiki always goes to where it is most needed.

      Some people just experience a lovely sensation of deep relaxation as if in a meditative state which is very healing in itself. Others as well as the deep relaxation feel other sensations such as warmth, energy flowing through them or a pulsing sensation. It is also common to experience the seeing of colours, and in some cases images and even receive clear messages of some sort whilst in the deeply relaxed state. Whatever the experience, upon finishing the treatment, you will feel very relaxed and refreshed.
