Reiki – Healing through touch.

Ever wondered why a baby’s touch seems to make us feel better? All of us are born with the healing powers. As we grow up these powers deplete till one is unable to feel them. This, they say is due to the influence of the environment that we live in. The negativity that surrounds us seems to reduce the life force energy from our bodies, if it is not channelized in the right manner. It is always said that babies are the purest form of mankind and you might not know they are the highest reserves of life force energy too.

Reiki is an ancient laying–on of hands healing technique that uses the life force energy to heal and balance the subtle energies within our body. Reiki addresses physical, emotional, mental and spiritual imbalances. The Reiki practitioner serves as a vessel that supplies healing energies where they are most needed. The energy flows out of the practitioner’s body through their palms while they are touching the recipient’s body.
To become a Reiki practitioner, one needs to go through the attunement process. Being attuned to Reiki gives one the ability to easily access the Reiki energy. This energy is used to heal a person or situation. One can be attuned to these energies only by a Reiki master. This is a spiritual process where the Reiki master uses certain Reiki symbols in a certain manner. These symbols carry energy and when they are used on the recipient it creates an energy pattern around him/her.

One can learn reiki by visiting a Reiki master. It was 14 years back that I was introduced to this wonderful art of healing. Every since then I’ve been regularly practising it, sometimes on myself and sometimes to heal others. The first time I practiced reiki I could actually feel the energy passing through my palms.

There are a number of benefits of Reiki and I have personally experienced some of them. As mentioned earlier, Reiki heals on physical, mental, emotional and spiritual level. Let’s take a look at some of the benefits.
On a physical level it works on reducing flu, fatigue, headaches and body pain. It also helps in balancing the organs and glands and their bodily functions. It also helps in strengthen the immune system of the body. On a mental level one experiences a calmer state of mind. It improves memory and creativity and helps increase one’s self confidence. On an emotional level it helps one to be relaxed. It eases depression and addiction and fear based illnesses. On a spiritual level it helps one figure out a direction in life. It helps one be in tune with the others and the universe.

I have always been thankful to Reiki. Since I’ve been practicing Reiki, everyday is better than before. My attitude towards live has changed and shortfalls do not upset me, infact I have strength to face them and come out victorious. Though the healing powers of Reiki my personal growth journey has been great. If not to practise on others I would definitely recommend it for self healing.
