What is Reiki?
The
name Reiki, pronounced ''Ray-key'', comes from the Japanese words
''rei'' meaning spirit, and ''ki'' meaning energy. It is usually
translated as ''universal life energy.''
Reiki is also a Japanese holistic energy healing system that is gentle
and noninvasive and yet yields powerful results for the body, mind and
spirit.
When
using Reiki to heal, the practitioner simply sets an intention to
facilitate the healing process of the client and allows Reiki to flow
in whatever amount the client wishes to receive and for whatever he or
she needs most.
It is ideal for use with
animals because with Reiki, since effectiveness is not dependent upon
physical contact, the animal controls the treatment, accepting Reiki in
the ways that are most comfortable, either hands-on or from a distance,
or a combination of the two.
Easy for
anyone to learn and use, Reiki can do no harm, even when used by the
most novice practitioner. It always goes to the deepest source of the
problem and always supports a path towards balance and harmony.
