What is Reiki?
Reiki is a combination of two Japanese words, Rei and Ki, which translate to spiritual energy, the source of all beings and things. The use of Reiki energy is an ancient and holistic healing method involving gentle touch. The System of Reiki, founded by Mikao Usui in Japan in the early 1900s, is an amazing system developed and taught for spirituality, self-healing and personal growth.
Reiki is the energy of divine, unconditional love, and is easy to work with. Ki is the Japanese form of chi or prana, referred to as life force or vital energy that exists in everything. When we work with Reiki we work with this energy to enhance our body's vitality and our connection to everything.
A session of Reiki quickly brings one to a place of peace and deep relaxation, a place that assists bringing the body into balance, boosting the immune system and stimulating one's own healing process.
Working with the essence of Reiki teaches us compassion, heightens our intuition, and supports our personal growth toward conscious awareness. It helps realignment with our true path, our source and our spirit.
