Reiki Explained
The Usui system of Reiki is a system for channeling energy to someone for the purpose of healing, and was discovered by Dr. Usui in the late 1800's. Reiki (pronounced ray-key) is, in its simplest translation, universal life force energy. It is referred to in other cultures as "chi", "prana", or "spirit". It is the universal life force that exists in all things. The practice of Reiki is the channeling of this universal life energy to promote spiritual, emotional, mental, and physical well-being. It is the God-consciousness called Rei that guides the life force called Ki in the practice called Reiki. Therefore, Reiki can be defined as spiritually guided life force energy.
There is an unseen force, or energy that flows through all living things.  The awareness of this energy, and it's direct connection to the quality of health is sacred wisdom that has been a part of many cultures since ancient times. The presence of this "life force energy" has been validated by many scientific experiments, encouraging even the medical community to consider the role it plays in the healing process of the human body and all of life.
As a powerful, yet gentle healing modality, Reiki has been used to assist in the healing of just about everything and anything affecting the mental, physical and spiritual bodies. This includes, but is not limited to: heart disease, cancer, broken bones, headaches, colds, flu, fatigue, insomnia, lack of confidence, and more, far to many to list here. It is always advantageous and helps to improve the efficiency of all other types of therapy. A treatment has many benefits for both client and practitioner, including altered states of consciousness and spiritual experiences. Reiki can be used in conjunction with traditional medical treatments. Reiki will improve the results, acting to reduce negative side effects, shorten healing time, reduce or eliminate pain, reduce stress, and help create optimism. Reiki is for everybody. It benefits people in many wonderful ways but is also effective for animals and plants. If you are basically healthy, Reiki energy works to help you stay clear and balanced.
The Universal Life Force is the nonphysical energy that brings life to all things. As long as something is in a living state, it has life force circulating through it and surrounding it; the life force departs when it dies. If there is a restriction in its flow, you may feel fatigued and become vulnerable to illness. When your life force is flowing freely, you are less likely to get sick. The life force flowing throughout our beings plays an important role in everything we do. It animates the body and also is the primary energy of our emotions, thoughts and spiritual life.
We are alive because life force energy is flowing through us. This energy flows through the physical body though pathways called Chakras. It also flows around the human energy field known as the aura. Life force energy feeds the organs and cells of the body, supporting them in their essential functions. When this flow of life force is disrupted, it can cause diminished function in the organs and tissues of the physical body.
The life force is responsive to our thoughts and feelings. It becomes disrupted when we accept, either consciously or unconsciously, negative thoughts or feelings about ourselves. These negative thoughts and feelings attach themselves to the energy field and cause a disruption in the flow of life force. This diminishes the vital function of the organs and cells of the physical body.
Reiki heals by flowing through the affected parts of the energy field and charging them with positive energy. It raises the vibratory level of the energy field in and around the physical body where the negative thoughts and feelings are attached. This causes the negative energy to break apart and transmute. In so doing, Reiki clears, straightens, and heals the energy pathways, thus allowing the life force to flow in a healthy and natural way.
Because Reiki is a channeled healing modality, guided by God-consciousness, it can not do harm. It always knows the individual needs of each being it touches, and will adjust itself to create the effect that is appropriate for them. Reiki is always helpful and the practitioner's energies are never depleted because the energy does not come from the practitioner, but God-consciousness.  In fact, Reiki offers healing energy to both recipient and practitioner, so both receive treatment. This way, a treatment always increases the energy of all involved and leaves both participants surrounded with loving feelings of well-being.
