The word Reiki is made of two Japanese words – Rei which means “Infinite Wisdom or Higher Power” and Ki which is “life force energy”. So the translation for Reiki is “spiritually guided life force energy.”
Reiki is found all over the world with many reported miracles. Reiki encourages the flow of energy within us, it enriches and transforms and can benefit every known illness or imbalance if it is for our highest good. Everything is energy, therefore there is no limit to what Reiki can be used on. It is only limited by our imagination. It is available to us in times of need and to act as a source of guidance. Reiki can be used on ourselves, each other, plants, animals, crystals, even domestic appliances and situations.
Learning Reiki
Reiki is easy to learn and is available to anyone. The ability to use Reiki is passed on to you during an attunement which allows you to tap into an unlimited supply of life force energy. With each attunement and each degree the amount of Reiki you channel increases. By practicing daily the greater your transformation will be. Physical, emotional, mental and spiritual blockages are cleared and you become a clearer channel for the energy. With less resistance in its way Reiki becomes stronger and stronger.
As we transform we step further into our spiritual nature, finding our true essence and reconnection to our soul. We can help others to do the same. When we are in direct connection with our our true essence we are whole, happy and healthy.
Regular practice expands our awareness, helping us to understand our place in the universe and why we are here. We become more intuitive with greater access to our higher guidance, It brings us closer to ourself and all that is. By the end of a workshop participants are deeply relaxed and glowing.
If you would like to learn or review your current Reiki we offer the below courses in Traditional Usui Reiki. Regular workshops are taught by Emma or Charmian. Charmian was fortunate to be trained in the 80′s by Masters only one or two removed from Hawayo Takata who brought Reiki to the West.
1st Degree
The first degree is an introduction to Reiki. You are attuned to the energy and your subtle bodies and chakras are tuned to higher frequencies. You are taught hand positions that help you energize and balance your own or someone else’s body. Follow-up support is given.
After the first degree workshop you are advised to give yourself a full session for at least the next 21 days to deepen your understanding of the Reiki energy and to go through a period of cleansing. We usually advise you to drink lots of water to assist in this cleanse process, as well as to write a journal to assist in cleansing your mind. Thereafter, with daily use of Reiki the greater your transformation will be.
