What is Reiki healing?

Reiki is an energy healing method that uses gentle touch to promote relaxation and ease stress and anxiety. Reiki healers use their hands to transfer energy into your body, increasing the flow and balance of your energy to facilitate healing.

Even if you’re not physically present, Reiki practitioners can clear blockages from your past, by performing Reiki on you. Reiki distance healing sessions work because energy is not limited by distance. Distance is only a physical limitation. 

What is Reiki good for?

Whether you want to receive Reiki therapy for emotional trauma healing, energy level balancing, or to develop yourself spiritually, Reiki has endless advantages. Here are 5 benefits of Reiki healing that may interest you:

1. Through energy transfer, the body can restore balance across all systems of the mind, body, and spirit.
2. Regular Reiki treatment promotes the consistent and unlocked flow of energy throughout the body. This allows people to feel less stress, enhances learning and memory, and promotes mental clarity, and physical healing or less physical pain.
3. The positive energy transfer allows the mind to focus on current events, not hold onto past mistakes, and not fret about anxieties about the future. This will help with accepting how life is unfolding and will help promote positive reactions to situations, people, and circumstances.
4. Reiki energy healing helps our bodies to sleep better, to heal better, and to think more clearly. It is not uncommon for people to fall asleep entirely during a Reiki session.
5. The Reiki technique is used to remind our bodies how to go back into the “repair” or “self-healing” state of rest and digestion. By triggering this state, our bodies begin to cleanse themselves of useless energies. It also allows the body to protect itself from exhaustion, burnout, or immune system failure.

How does an online Reiki session work?

Imagine a type of healing energy sent from a Reiki practitioner in San Diego to a woman in New York City with chronic insomnia. Long-distance Reiki, also known as remote Reiki or Reiki distance healing, does not require recipients to be in the same location. Instead of directly transferring Reiki energy through touch, practitioners can use their thoughts and intentions to move energy into a recipient’s spiritual, emotional, mental, and even physical being.

What’s more, Reiki can also be sent through time to situations that occurred in the past and events that will happen in the future. For people who struggle with acceptance of past trauma or worry excessively about future scenarios, a Reiki treatment can facilitate healing and help manifest future betterment.

Long-distance Reiki can also be used during in-person sessions for clients who are not comfortable with being touched.

What kind of training does a Reiki healer have?

Becoming a Reiki Master is a serious step that must be preceded by necessary preparation. One must first take Reiki I & II and Advanced Reiki training. 

Traditionally, there are three degrees of practice, each building on the other and each outlining a unique, specific scope of practice. Daily hands-on Reiki self-treatment remains the foundation at all levels of practice.

• The first degree is usually taught over 8-12 hours. Future Reiki Masters practice Reiki self-care together and share Reiki.
• The second degree is distant healing.
• The third level is Reiki master. Traditionally, the Reiki master level of training was by invitation only. A master's training is done not through course work, but rather through an extended apprenticeship with a Reiki master.
