What
do you feel during a Reiki treatment?
Usually, you will feel a pleasant warming heat on the area that
is being treated. This deeply warming relaxation will enable energy
blockages within the body to be released and these can show in
many ways: such as the desire to continually swallow, cough or
sneeze, a rumbling stomach or a rush of energy down the legs.
These are great indications that the treatment is working and
should not cause any concern. Some people may feel nothing during
the treatment itself but this does not mean that it has not worked.
Reiki
History
Reiki originated in Tibet thousands
of years ago. Tibetan monks had mastered the science or art of
tapping the Universal Life Force Energy for man’s use in
healing and self-transformation to eventually lead to spiritual
enlightenment. This technique was however, only taught to a selected
and disciplined few.
Reiki
was rediscovered by Dr Mikao Usui, a theological scholar and teacher,
who in the mid 1800’s undertook an extensive study of the
healings of history’s greatest spiritual leaders. In the
Buddhist writings he found a way to connect
to the Reiki healing energy and
he spent the latter part of his life using and teaching this wonderful
knowledge.
In the later 1970’s, Reiki reached
the western world through Mrs. Hawayo Takata. Since then, tens
of thousands of people have received Reiki
worldwide.
Reiki
