Nancy awakened after surgery with excruciating pain. Her
nurse, Sarah had already given her the highest dose of morphine. Sarah asked if
she wants to try Reiki therapy. Nancy said, "Yes, I'll try anything."
Nancy feels the heat of Sarah's hands as she places them
gently over her eyes. Sarah will continue to move her hands to various
locations on the body, pausing for 3 to a few minutes in each location. Once
the therapy is over, Nancy continues to have some pain, but it's a lot less.
She feels relaxed and peaceful.
Nancy's experience is only one of an increasing number of
people switching to Reiki for healing. Their experiences vary, some feel the
Reiki hands as soothing, some feel warmth, plus some feel nothing.
An increasing number of hospitals offer Reiki being a
complement with other therapies. Reiki practitioners provide therapy in lots of
settings both privately and through group visits where participants learn Reiki
practice (on their own as well as others).
What is Reiki Therapy?
The term "Reiki" combines two Japanese words:
"rei," meaning universal, and "ki," meaning life energy.
Its practitioners work as conduits to primordial consciousness (also known as
Reiki) while placing their hands lightly on or simply over the person receiving
treatment.
Reiki practice came from the spiritual teachings of Mikao
Usui in Japan throughout the early twentieth century. Its goal would be to
facilitate a person's healing. This is a part of alternative and complementary
medicine, based on the National Institutes of Health's Center for Complementary
and Alternative Treatment.
Reiki helps return balanced functioning at each degree of
being... physical, emotional, mental, spiritual, and social. It cuts down on
stress and relieves pain and anxiety. "Recipients commonly report improved
sleep and digestion, along with a greater feeling of well-being. Other
benefits, like feeling more motivated, less depressed, or experiencing a
respite from negative effects of medications, radiation, or chemotherapy vary
for every person," reports its leading US proponent, Pamela Miles in Reiki
An Extensive Guide.
How Can You Become a Reiki Practitioner?
Anybody can turn into a Reiki practitioner by attending
classes taught with a qualified Reiki master. Although utilized by nurses,
doctors, as well as other health providers, it will not need a degree or
healthcare background.
Throughout the classes, the Reiki master provides Reiki
initiation, guidance, and supervised practice for college students.
Initiation creates alignment from the student's energy field
(the subtle field that surrounds and permeates your body) using the unlimited
primordial consciousness (or energy). "The initiations allow the Reiki
student to hold Reiki potential in her own hands that will activate
spontaneously based on the necessity of anyone she touches, herself, or any
other," says Miles.
You will find three kinds of Reiki practice: first degree,
second degree, and master. The first degree prepares a student for Reiki practice.
The second degree prepares the Reiki practitioner to execute distant Reiki
healing. Being a Reiki master prepares a Reiki practitioner to show.
Is Reiki Safe?
Reiki has no negative effects. "It may only help, it
may never hurt," says Miles. You can't "overdose" on Reiki.
Unlike energy healing methods like Therapeutic Touch and
Healing Touch where practitioners direct energy and treat imbalances according
to assessment findings, Reiki practitioners act solely as conduits for Reiki.
The flow of Reiki and just how it's used are solely based on
the unique needs of the individual receiving it. There is absolutely no
conscious controlling or directing from the energy from the practitioner.
How Can You Select a Reiki Practitioner?
Miles advises that education and experience tend to be more
important than the kind of practitioner. An initial degree Reiki practitioner
could be more knowledgeable in providing direct Reiki healing when compared to
a second-degree practitioner or perhaps a Reiki master.
Strategies for getting a practitioner:
Ask your
physician, nurse, or any other health professional for any referral.
Talk with
holistic, complementary, or integrative medicine providers. They might offer it
themselves or are aware of a great practitioner.
If within the
hospital, simply request Reiki.
Ask your pals. You
might be surprised to discover one of these provides Reiki or knows of somebody
that does.
Talk with the
Reiki Alliance, a team of Reiki Masters, who offer referrals and knowledge on
Reiki.
Once you've identified practitioners, let them know what
you're searching for. Inquire about their training and period practicing Reiki.
Obtain a feel for who they are and why they may be doing Reiki. Discover their
charges, billing practices, and cancellation policy. Not just is this reliable
information to learn, it will help you get a sense of the individual.
Selected a practitioner that meets your requirements and you
also feel better about it.
Summary
Reiki therapy offers spiritual healing. Your specific needs
guide Reiki's flow and make use of it.
Selecting a Reiki practitioner according to their experience
as well as your needs is much more important than the kind of practitioner
(first degree or second degree or master).
Reiki therapy must not be a substitute for visiting a doctor
for any significant health condition, although, lots of people benefit by
utilizing Reiki together with surgical procedures and treatments.
Reiki will not require your belief, only your willingness to
enjoy it!
