Energy healing is one of the oldest practices known in the world today. I believe we are just finally circling back to the ancient, sacred and divine way of living- the way God created it to be.

Since 4000BCE, healers have understood that our health greatly depends on the quality of energy that flows through us and makes up our bodies. In Chinese medicine, that energy is called qi or chi. In Ancient Indian or Ayurvedic medicine, this energy is called prana. Imbalances in this energy may deeply affect our physical and mental health.

We can compare this energy to electricity. We can’t see electricity but we can definitely feel it.

For example, emotions are E- energy IN MOTION. When there is an energy block in our body, no matter the cause, we can become sick.

Energy work, works by clearing and rebalancing the flow of energy within the body. As energy begins to move freely again, the body and mind naturally release what they have been holding onto and can return back to a state of inner harmony.

Reiki is pronounced (ray- key).

Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. Reiki is administered by “laying hands” and techniques such as this have been practiced for thousands of years.

Rei- means Spiritual Wisdom.

Ki- means LIfe Energy. The word “Ki” means the same as Chi in Chinese, Prana in Sanskrit and Ti or Ki in Hawaiian; science calls it biofield energy. It is also known as the vital life force or the universal life energy. This is the non-physical energy that animated all living things. As long as something is alive, it has life energy circulating through it and surrounding it; when it dies, the life energy departs. If your life energy is low, or if there is a restriction in its flow, you will be more vulnerable to illness. When it is high and flowing freely, you are less likely to get sick. Life energy plays an important role in everything we do. It animates the body and has higher levels of expression. Ki is also the primary energy of our emotions, thoughts and spiritual life.

Reiki is a special kind of Ki. It is Ki that is guided by spiritual consciousness, and is defined as spiritually guided life energy.

While Reiki is spiritual in nature in that it provides love and compassion to the client, it is not a religion. It has no dogma and does not conflict with religious beliefs. People who are followers of all various religions have practiced Reiki and find that it enhances their religious and spiritual experiences.

Yes!!

In fact, I find that they can be even more effective at times. We are all made up of energy and because we are, I am able to easily connect to your energetic body simply through intention. To make your Reiki or energy treatment even more effective, I always recommend to my clients that they use our session time to mediate, pray, or put on relaxing music and fall asleep. Falling asleep or going deep into mediation, relaxes the body, mind and spirit and helps raise your vibration so that your body is able to receive the healing at an even deeper level, all in the comfort of your own space and home. This allows your body to go through an even gentler energetic detox during and after our session, giving you often even better or faster results.
