Lección 1: What Is Reiki?

Reiki is a type of energy healing that is practiced by transmitting primarily through the hands. It is meant to work on the mind, body and spirit by stimulating a person’s own natural healing abilities. It is a simple, holistic yet powerful method of physical, spiritual and emotional healing, that can be used alongside western medicine or other natural healing treatments like Ayurveda, Chinese Medicine etc.

The 5 Reiki Principles
Just for TODAY:
Don’t get angry
Don’t worry
Be grateful
Work honestly
Be kind to yourself and others

These spiritual ideals mean different things to each one of us, so feel free to unlock you own perception. The 5 Reiki Principles are not commandments, they are simply gifts of wisdom.

Lección 3: Chakras, Auras, Meridians

Each chakra corresponds with a layer of the aura. Negative feelings or thoughts, couscous or unconscious can become lodged in the chakras reducing the amount of subtle energy they are able to provide and adversely affecting one's health. The meridians are pathways through which the subtle energy flows within the physical body.

Lección 4: Reiki History

During this Reiki History lesson, we will go through the Usui Reiki Lineage and History, starting from the founder Dr. Mikao Usui, Dr. Chujiro Hayashi, Hawayo Takata, and William Lee Rand who paved the way for the Reiki that we know today.

Lección 5: Attunement Process

Reiki is not taught in the way other healing techniques are taught. The ability to channel Reiki energy is transferred to the student by the Reiki Master during an attunement process. In Holy Fire® classes, the attunement has evolved into Placements and lenitions which accomplish the same thing as attunements with improved results. During the attunement, the Rei or spiritual consciousness makes adjustments in the student's chakras and energy pathways and also in deeper parts of one's consciousness to accommodate the ability to channel Reiki energy.

Lección 6: Cleansing Process & Reiki Healing

Cleansing Process
The Reiki attunement can start a cleansing process that affects the physical body as well as the mind and emotions. Toxins that have been stored in the body may be released along with feelings and thought patterns that are no longer useful.

Reiki Healing
After the attunement/placement, all that is necessary for the practitioner to use Reiki, is to place their hands on themselves with the intention of healing. The Reiki energy will begin to flow automatically.

This is a very basic but very well presented description of Reiki what it is what it does without getting into too much detail. I appreciate the review, especially on the five basic concepts, “ just for today.” Thank you.
