Ahhhh is for Reiki

How do you explain to someone who’s never had one just how deeply relaxing Reiki healing actually is? Reiki is a healing energy channeled through the hands of the practitioner onto the recipient’s body. Not only can you receive Reiki healing from a practitioner but you can learn how to give yourself and others a treatment too.

Receiving Reiki is calming and soothing. Your stresses just float away. It feels like a flow of calm tingling energy, either warm or cool, depending on what you need. It helps to de-stress you and gives a deep relaxing feeling. Some people may see colours as they receive energy. The Reiki energy can seem to wrap you up in a warm cocoon of energy. If you have a physical or emotional trauma the Reiki can feel soothing.

In addition, Reiki can be sent to past events that still may affect you in the present. It can be sent into the future, useful, say if you know you are going to have an operation or an interview or other difficult situation. It can be sent across continents…if your Aunty Mabel has been ill and requires healing, then you can send (or ask for it to be sent by a Reiki healer) right across the world. If you have a problem that seems intractable, then you can send Reiki energy to the situation and ask for a resolution to become apparent. I’ve even used Reiki to create a positive atmosphere in a room before giving a presentation, (I was discrete, mind)! I’ve also calmed myself before an important pitch presentation in order to keep my nerves in check. The beauty is that nobody else need know that you are giving yourself Reiki!

Each time you receive Reiki might feel different. But it always leaves you feeling more relaxed than before you received the treatment.
