” See the world as yourself.
Have faith in the way things are.
Love the world as yourself
then you can
care for all things.”
Tao Te Ching
Usui Reiki is a Natural and Gentle system to support holistic health. Through the simple laying on of hands on ourselves or others including animals, Reiki enhances and strengthens the body’s own abilities to restore harmony between all body systems and functions.As a System of Natural Health Reiki is based on self care and has its spiritual roots in Buddhism. The Reiki Principles of Balanced Living can become a spiritual path if one so desires. As we return to a more peaceful state of being the quality of our life and relationships become more harmonious.
This kind of energy balancing can be used on a daily basis to support our vitality, rejuvenate our being and is safe to use in conjunction with other forms of medical treatments. There are no side effects to Reiki; gentle yet powerful Reiki can help us address the root causes of our discomforts and illnesses.
Reiki is non invasive and easy to learn.
It can be practiced anytime and virtually anywhere, helping you help yourself and others release stress,tension and addictions. Reiki has the potential of positively affecting us on all levels, physical, emotional and mental.
One of the primary effects of Reiki is a sense of deep relaxation. Beyond restfulness, relaxation is the key that unlocks the body’s innate abilities to heal itself by improving blood circulation, calming the nervous system, and supporting deeper breathing. Pain, stiffness, sleeping disorders, low energy, anxiety and depression are ways our bodies use to tell us something is amiss… Unreleased stress builds up in our system and can eventually manifest as illness, degenerative disease, emotional disorders and lack of focus that can lead to injury or the feeling that life is passing us by. Reiki challenges our concepts of health by allowing us to experience that health is more than being
“dis-ease” free it is a state of vitality.
Reiki is a process. Somehow one could think of one’s journey with Reiki as the creation of an enigmatic Haiku, where silence and the space between things allow the unspeakable to just be mysterious in it’s life giving.
” An old silent pond… A frog jumps into the pond, splash! Silence again.” Basho
Returning to love again and again and again…
Whether you want to help yourself, your loved ones or the animals in your life, Reiki is easy to learn. There are 3 certification levels, based on an attunement process. Following the traditional Japanese teachings each level is taught with a break in between allowing for integration and the gradual healing of the body-mind. There is no need to rush to get somewhere, it is all about developping a practice. The attunement process supports the opening of the body’s energy centers so that you can become a clear vessel for the Universl Life Force to move through you. Everybody experiences in their own way. The 3 Reiki levels deepen our experiential knowing of energy as medicine, developping our inner knowing, elevating our heart wisdom and anchoring self-empowerment as a way of life.
All levels include a 3 month subscription to bi-weekly online Reiki Circle.
