How to Perform a Reiki Energy Style Healing Session

What is Reiki? Reiki is the use of physical touch to transfer healing energy through the healer directly into another person’s body. Reiki is Japanese meaning “Light” (rei) and “Universal Life Force Energy” (ki). Reiki is an excellent way to heal bruises, infections, headaches, and other illness, depending on the level of practitioners. There are four levels before you become a master with many hand positions, there will only be a few hand positions that are used for a beginner Reiki practitioner. Reiki is a universal energy that comes from the Source of Life. Reiki energy can also be effectively used to eliminate harmful toxins within our physical body. A full session of Reiki last about 45 minutes and the removal of all metal from the body are important to get the energy to travel to the areas and not get distracted.
