What is Reiki

Print

Reiki is an ancient Japanese art of natural energy healing, it was rediscovered in Japan by Dr Mikao Usui in the early 1900s. After some time on Mount Kurama in a meditative retreat, he experienced enlightenment. This is how he discovered that he was able to help people who had illnesses by touching them.

Reiki is taught by Reiki Master Teachers. The tradition is passed from Master to student, attuning them to the Reiki energy.

Reiki is a wonderful, gentle, non-invasive, yet powerful form of healing.

Rei - Universal energy

Ki - Life Force

Mind, Body & Spirit is about energy that flows through every living being bringing it to life ... the Ki (Life Force).

Reiki can help to support the body to facilitate healing on all levels - physical, mental, emotional and spiritual.

A Reiki practitioner is able to send healing energy to the individual in order to bring about homeostasis (natural balance) within the body, which is vital for well-being.

Reiki energy is guided to where it is needed and ignites a persons own healing ability's.

These five Reiki ideals were given to us by Dr Mikao Usui.

Just for today do not worry
Just for today do not anger
Honour your parents, teachers and elders and respect all living things
Be Honest, earn your living honestly
Be thankful, show gratitude to everything.
