Reiki can help the most important person in the world — you! Those who are the least bit familiar with this modality, but who are not practitioners, probably think of Reiki as something that is used solely to heal others. Well, of course that is true, but what most may not realize, is that it is an incredible tool for self healing. You can become attuned to Reiki solely for this purpose. No one is compelled to go into a Reiki practice as a career. Learning the basics, Level I, is probably all you need to get started on a path toward your own relaxation, positive transformation, and healing.
In Level I (of the Usui system of Reiki) there is a very strong focus on self-healing. For those who plan to practice on others, self-healing is an important and necessary first step to cleanse and detoxify ourselves in order to be a clearer conduit of the energy flow for others. For how can we effectively offer healing to others when we ourselves are a “mess” and burdened with physical, mental and emotional issues?
If our ultimate goal is to simply focus on ourselves, then we can concentrate on letting the healing energy flow into us for our own highest good and optimum healing. The phenomenal thing about Reiki is that it heals on all levels — physical, mental, emotional and even spiritual! The wisdom of this energy is that it gets to the root of what ails us and works to correct it.
Reiki helps reduce and remove pain, stress, dis-ease, and emotional imbalances. It is used in hospitals across the country. It is used at cancer centers to help patients speed their recovery from chemotherapy/radiation treatments. Why not bring Reiki into your own life to start on your road to healing in a very gentle, yet powerful way? Your body, mind and spirit will thank you!
