DISTANCE HEALINKG WITH REIKI

I love Reiki because it is relaxing and rejuvenating. This calming healing practice helps clients to connect more deeply with their physical bodies and give them some love. The best part is, all the client has to do is lie there. That's it! Consciously, no effort is needed on the part of the client. As a practitioner of Reiki, I enjoy it when my client's body absorbs the energy like a sponge, resulting in restoration and balance. 

​

So what exactly is this? The word Reiki can be simply translated as “spiritual essence” (Anders, Andrew. Michigan Reiki, 2014). According to my teacher, Reiki Master Andrew Anders, Reiki is energy that exists throughout the universe. The hands-on practice of Reiki Ryoho is a Japanese spiritual practice that works with energy to support healing and personal development (Anders, 2014). From a scientific perspective, Reiki supports homeostasis and “the body’s own internal communication processes via the autonomic nervous and endocrine systems” (Kusiak, Julie. “An Introduction to Reiki Therapy The Science and The Research.” Presentation, Beaumont Hospital of Royal Oak, 2014.).

 

When Reiki is applied therapeutically, it is known as hands-on healing. Clients who select to this treatment remain fully clothed on a massage table. I gently place my hands on certain areas of the client's body and let the wonders of Reiki do the rest. The National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM) classifies this type of Reiki practice as “energy healing” (Anders, 2014).

I've read about using MDMA and psychotropic drugs as part of therapy to help the patient drop deeper into the psyche to access trauma. Without ever having done that myself, I feel like my Reiki sessions with Hannah are like that. We can do years of therapy in an hour on her table (without substances).
