While keeping up with the fast-paced and demanding life of the 21st century, we often feel mentally, emotionally and physically exhausted, and it is quite normal for each of us to feel this fatigue. But how do we cope with all this stress and relieve ourselves of this pressure? Today, we would like to talk to you about Reiki which has its roots in Japan it is an art which heals your soul and rejuvenates your inner energies.   

What is Reiki?

What is Reiki?

Reiki is literally translated as "Rei" meaning Life and "Ki" meaning Energy, which would mean "energy of life". It is a spiritual form of healing where a Reiki Master lays his hands on your body, releasing the energy trapped within you, which will result in unblocking of energies and making you feel rejuvenated and your body will heal itself.  

This may sound rather skeptical, but the art of Reiki is based on the idea that our body is composed of energies and elements that heal us from within. When these elements are blocked, people feel strained and exhausted because our inner energies cannot repair ourselves due to a demanding lifestyle and a strenuous work culture.   

Reiki works on unlocking your core energies by exerting healing pressure and touches by the Reiki Master on three places, your vital organs, your chakras and your meridians. Reiki Masters are highly trained Reiki practitioners who are skilled in the art of healing.    

Reiki was introduced by a Japanese scholar named Mikao Usui in 1922, who claimed to learn this healing art from his deep spiritual awakenings and decided to pass on this technique to his disciples. It was developed to relieve mental and physical pain and create a holistic sense of well-being for the subject.

Reiki is a pseudo-science and complementary medicine. It shouldn't be taken as an alternative to formal allopathic or conventional medicine. You should go for a Reiki session if you are feeling overwhelmed or stressed. Testimonials from past and present Reiki beneficiaries have also revealed that Reiki has helped them considerably as a complementary treatment to injuries, post-traumatic experiences, pain management, post-surgery healing and as a supportive adjunct to the treatment of a wide range of illnesses.   

The effects of Reiki often result in a feeling of calmness, relaxation and clarity of mind. Reiki has been mainly associated with pain management. Although it is a pseudo-science and considerable research needs to be done to prove its effectiveness as a fact, subjects who have obtained positive results from Reiki for their relevant conditions have always praised this form of healing art. Even if you have no existing health or psychological concerns to request a Reiki session, you can enter a Reiki center just to experience it and release your blocked energies to feel a burst of energy that will make you feel freer and relaxed.   

Health care professionals and doctors have stated that while Reiki may have different results for everyone and that each person may have a different experience with Reiki benefits, there are no known negative or side effects. You might not get excellent results with Reiki, but this does not mean that you will experience any adverse effects. Reiki requires the total involvement of both the provider and the recipient. While receiving Reiki, healing is about believing in yourself and your inner energies and surrendering to natural powers. 

On the other hand, if you wish to become a Reiki provider, you can follow Reiki courses which are conveniently accessible, all you must do is research the centers that offer these courses. A Reiki Master or Reiki Provider can be your family or friends and you can provide it to your friends and family with the proper training.
