Reiki, a Powerful Tool for Mind, Body and Spirit

Nowadays, the interest in alternative medicine is growing rapidly. Among the vast number of healing modalities available, we find that Reiki has become increasingly popular around the world, especially since science has verified the existence of the universal life energy that Reiki is based on. Reiki is a powerful holistic healing system; it heals on all levels, physical, mental, emotional and spiritual.

So what is Reiki? The term Reiki is the Japanese word for Universal Life Force Energy. It is a very simple and easily acquired healing method that uses universal life energy, the energy which permeates our entire universe and all living things. This universal life energy is called qi or chi in China, prana in India, and ki in Japan and this is where the Reiki name derives. It circulates throughout the body and in an energy field surrounding the body. This energy field, long been known to healers and mystics, is now verified by scientists. Recent scientific experiments have verified the existence of this life force energy. Scientists have proven that everything in the universe, at a sub-atomic level, is made up of energy. Health is the harmonious flow of life energy, while imbalances in this flow, due to unhealthy habits or negative emotions lead to illness. So this subtle energy is responsible for the processes in our body on all levels: physical, emotional and mental. Reiki channels universal life energy through the hands of the practitioner into the body of the receiver and balances the energy flow in the body.

Reiki is a holistic healing system, meaning that it addresses the whole person: the physical, mental, emotional and the spiritual levels. The body is not made up of isolated parts to be fixed, like a machine; there are no separate parts, but an amazing web of energy, and in order to truly return to health, all the levels of our being must be addressed.

Reiki works on four different levels:

The physical level: Reiki strengthens the immune system. It helps in relieving pain. It balances and harmonizes the function of glands and organs. It heals by opening the blocked energy channels, the meridians, and balances the chakras. When performed regularly, toxins are removed from the body and good health and well-being is maintained.

The emotional level: One of the greatest healing benefits of Reiki is stress reduction and relaxation, which strengthens the immune system and maintains health. People who are depressed or do not feel emotionally balanced begin to feel more stable and relaxed because Reiki clears energy blockages and suppressed emotions.

The mental level: Through giving yourself Reiki, you obtain more clarity and find it easier to overcome obstacles and achieve goals. You become more positive and reach a different outlook on life. You feel more empowered.

The spiritual level: Reiki enables you to go deeper within and feel more connected to your higher self. It aids meditation, increases intuition and provides limitless benefits of spiritual growth.


Reiki is so simple yet so powerful, and this is what makes it a unique healing system that anyone can learn, because it does not require any previous experience or special ability. The Benefits of Reiki are infinite. It allows you to take an active part in your own wellness, and accelerates your growth on all levels.


Energy Medicine

When we find ourselves being blocked in our attempt to accomplish a task or a goal in life, we tend to look outside ourselves for why something happened. We tend blame others and outside situations rather than look to inside at ourselves for the cause. How could we create a situation where we lose our life savings or do not get the job position we applied for?

Every time most people suffer with pain, illness or depression, they will run to the body mechanic, not realizing their body is talking to them. It has a message that can be understood if we can listen to the information being presented by our computer-based mind. Rather than block or relieve the symptoms with drugs, we need to look at what happened to cause malfunction in our life.

This is not about our body, but about a situation or a task we ignore, or something we do to get attention and acceptance. We want a payoff so we can get what we want out of the situation, usually tied into an attempt to control a situation. The base need is for love and acceptance, which most people do not have in their life.

Getting past this block is really about self-empowerment. You are the only one who can empower yourself; nobody can do it for you. When I started this journey, I thought good nutrition and becoming a vegetarian would heal my body. Little did I know that we were controlled by computer programs that set up our behavior patterns. It’s not about what we eat; it’s about what’s eating us that controls how we feel.

We look to the outside to ge results, when the problems are really within us. It is difficult to take responsibility for everyhtinh in our lives. Energy medicine, for example looks at the root casue of our problems and determines a solution..

The TeslaWAVis the way I have found to heal naturally.
