Hi,

I'm Gina Ferrara.

I would like to offer my understanding of Reiki healing energy and provide a brief time to meditate on the five Reiki principles.

Some of you are familiar with the term Reiki.

Others say,

What?

There is nothing like getting an actual Reiki treatment session for insight into this energy.

But here I will make a brief verbal attempt.

Reiki means life force or spiritual energy.

It is a Japanese practice for relaxation and healing that was developed about a century ago by Mikao Usui.

The power of Reiki was bestowed upon him as a spiritual seeker and healer.

And he created a practice of utilizing the energy for healing.

Usui has offered the tools to access this energy for the highest and greatest good of the recipients.

It is a simple practice that requires the participant to be open to the experience and take in this magic.

I say open to the experience,

But I have had sessions with those skeptical of the process who have still come away with an understanding and an appreciation for what has occurred with the Reiki experience.

Reiki does not come from the practitioner nor from the recipient.

This energy exists around us in the universe.

Our goal with the Reiki treatment is to harness and guide the energy toward deep relaxation and healing.

The practitioner is a conduit of the energy.

Reiki can be directed but also has the ability to go to the area that requires the healing at that moment.

Reiki is powerful but gentle.

It cannot harm.

Reiki promotes the natural processes of life.

Reiki is not religious and it can be appreciated and taken in by people from all walks of life.

Reiki can be administered in person or remotely.

Both are effective and this was clearly demonstrated during the pandemic.

I have worked over the phone,

Through Zoom and remotely to people all over the world.

Reiki has many levels of training and is easy to learn.

I have been trained as an Usui master and have just embarked on a journey of Rainbow Reiki which was devised by Walter Lubeck,

A German healer,

Who based this extensive system on the Usui method.

Reiki sessions can be brief or over an hour for more intensive healing.

Rainbow Reiki has the ability to provide effective treatment in a shorter period.

You can accept Reiki in any position that is comfortable.

You can sit down,

Lie down or stand.

The recipient decides the level of comfort including accepting touch or no touch during the treatment.

Treating the aura is also powerful.

The recipient just has to relax and take in the wonder of the energy.

The practitioner places their hands in a series of positions on or around the body.

Though the energy can flow with great power,

The receiver will gain a feeling of calm and peace.

Mikao Usui imparted five Reiki principles.

It begins with just for today and can be seen as a roadmap for daily life,

Keeping the focus on maintaining simple strategies for a happy,

Grounded existence.

Let's take a few minutes to listen to the principles,

Ponder and allow each to settle gently into your mind and body.

If you would like,

Repeat these aloud or in your mind as a mantra or affirmation.

Or just accept them quietly.

Just for today,

I will not anger Ikruuna.

I will not worry Shinpaisuna.

I will be grateful.

I will work with diligence.

Guru Hagema.

I will be kind to myself and all beings.

I hope for today you can take the five Reiki principles into your life and utilize them as they work for you.

This is just a moment about the amazing power of Reiki healing.

May you journey toward peace.
