Reiki is an ancient healing practice that originated in Tibet. This
practice has been done for almost 3000 years. The Japanese have used
it for relaxation and stress reduction.
Reiki is called a healing practice because it does in fact promote the
healing process. This healing takes place through the Chi. Chi is the
Japanese word for life force. Reiki itself is composed of two Japanese
words, Rei which means God wisdom or higher power, and Ki which means
life force energy. Together Reiki is the spiritually guided life
force, and that surrounds all of us.
We can all agree on the fact that we are all made up of energy.
Everything in the world is made up of energy. Energy can not be
created or destroyed; it can be used and manipulated for our benefit
though. This is the idea behind Reiki. It uses the laying of hands to
manipulate the life force and re-energize, restore and heal the body.
The life force is what keeps us alive, if that life force becomes low,
as energy can at times, the a person is more likely to become ill or
stressed. Likewise if our life force energy is high we are more likely
to be healthy and also happy....
