This is not a post about the benefits of Reiki.
Instead it's about the 3 main ways Reiki can be used to improve your life.
1. Reiki as an intervention.
This is the most popular way that Reiki is used and discussed in the U.S.
This is where you feel stuck, overwhelmed, tired, foggy, anxious etc. and you book a Reiki appointment with a practitioner, lay down on a table while energy is channeled into your system for balance, you get deeply relaxed, feel connected to the divine, and find moments of clarity and peace that help you get moving in the direction you need to go.
We LOVE these sessions, AND there is way more to Reiki.
2. Using the Reiki principals as a guide post. Reiki was originally intended as a system to bring peace, purpose and clarity to those that practice it and it's founder wove in 5 basic principals to guide us toward these purposes.
They are:
Just for today...
I will not worry
I will not anger
I will do my work honestly
I will count my many blessings
and
I will respect all living things
You can follow these principals whether you are trained in Reiki or not, and stitching them into your life can bring great changes even on their own
Finally, using Reiki for dailyi self healing.
Full stop y'all.
This is the truest use of Reiki and what fuels those precepts.
Daily self practice requires an attunement ( unless you self attune, but that's a whole different post), but using Reiki daily on yourself and your own life is what was the original intent of the practice.
Its the bit that brings the ease, the peace and calm in the face if adversity, every day, not just after a session, and let's those principals shine from your heart.
Reiki changed my life, but it wasn't one session that did it, it was the practice.
And it's why I love to teach it to others, so they can have their own version of that experience. 🥰
