Ancient Reiki is Becoming Popular
Reiki healing is the Japanese name for a pre-historic method the human being has always used to heal him or herself ~ laying on of hands. It could be said that the technique is among the first ways people had of demonstrating their humanity or love and care for one another.
Rei, which means universal and healing and ki, which means energy and force, is the largest generic movement of energy healing in the U.S. This movement is discussed in greater length in The Spiritual Warrior's Guide to Reiki Medicine; excerpts can be accessed on http://selfgrowth.com.
Reiki as we know it today was revitalized and named by a Zen Buddhist, Mikao Usui, of Japan. Ever seeking enlightenment and especially interested in healing mind-body-spirit, he fasted for 21 days on a mountain and on his return realized he had healing powers. He taught people what he knew and word spread from there. Visit reiki.org for more about Sensei Usui.When I became attuned to this technique, I immediately had access to emotions I didn't know I had. My 21-day fast was not a fast to prevent eating food, it was a fast was to forego attending meetings. This was very hard to do because I was active in several organizations. I had to be with myself and truly take time to examine my life.
The emotions that poured out of me were unhappiness, anger, dissatisfaction, and astonishment that I could feel in such vivid color. I performed what I learned on myself every day for the first year. I kept hearing some voice saying, "Liar, Liar, LIAR," which had me walking around thinking, Who is lying? Was I lying? Where's the lie? Why is that a lie?My mind and heart obviously opened as a result of my initiation into the practice. What had intellectually served me before in my interactions with friends, family, co-workers and groups no longer served me. I was forced to feel everything that was going on, rather than sit back and analyze it and be reactive.
My heightened senses made me more proactive about choices I needed to make. One was to tell my mate I was not happy. The courage required to do this was unimaginable before, and now I saw a falsehood in who I was being that did not please me. I became able to summon the voice to say what I felt. Having this access to my voice helped me access, over time, the higher potential and realms of myself.Still, the gentleness of reiki allowed my ex and me to amicably separate. He was initiated too, and this prompted him to realize he needed to move out. We are now both remarried to new lifemates and are a pretty large and happy clan, even as we work out events and children responsibilitiues with our blended families.
There are thousands of types of spiritual healing energy emanating from Usui's popularizing it about 100 years ago. Since the 1950s-70s, Americans started creating their own forms because of what this hand healing work brought up for them. The man who founded the Seichem/SKHM form, Patrick Zeigler, is now doing All Love healing which focuses on the heart center. I experienced an initiation in All-Love at a Puerto Rico training in 2007 and the effects are still reverberating.
As the driver of the HealMobile, it my pleasure and honor to offer Reiki III for your de-stressing and well-being. You can have a complete session at your home or ours (NJ/NY area). I call these sessions "anointments" because I use essential oils in the process as we together acknowledge your core issues and anoint them with love and attention. Contact Us to make an "anointment" appointment, or click Calendar on our Young Living Essential Oils website to suggest a date that way.
Until such time as we meet, do read up on reiki and energy healing. Use your hands and your focused mindfulness to increase peace, decrease pain, and accelerate healing for you and your family.
