What Reiki really is.
Everything,
As you may know,
Is energy.
Me,
The internet,
The earth.
All moving at different speeds and frequencies.
Reiki is healing energy.
It can never be bad or used for ill,
Because it simply is pure healing energy.
One becomes a Reiki practitioner by learning Reiki from a master,
And classes consist of learning to tune into that specific channel,
Like a radio station,
Of energy,
And to transmit it to the being on whom you're working.
You may hear that Reiki was invented by a Japanese gentleman named Yosui,
Who lived from 1865 to 1926,
But that's not correct.
Master Yosui invented Reiki in the same way Ben Franklin invented electricity.
He didn't.
Both men discovered the respective energies they mastered.
Reiki,
Like electricity,
Was always there.
Yosui himself said Reiki had been handed down from master to student for 18,
000 years.
So he definitely didn't invent it.
A Reiki session is conducted with the client or patient lying on a table,
Fully clothed.
Reiki is not Reiki.
While the practitioner moves around the table,
Sensing and manipulating the energy of the client,
The Reiki session can go on,
Anywhere from just a few minutes to an hour or longer.
There are five very simple principles of Reiki.
They are,
Just for today,
I will not engage in anger.
Just for today,
I will not worry.
Just for today,
I will be grateful.
Just for today,
I will do my life's work honestly.
And just for today,
I will be kind to every living being.
Those are the very,
Very basics of Reiki.
