What is a Reiki session like, you may
be wondering?
Usually you talk with the therapist for
a while, discussing what is going on
with you, not only physically but
emotionally and spiritually as well.
Reiki is definitely a holistic treatment
in that it seeks to address all
dimensions of well-being. You relax,
fully clothed, on a couch or seated
while the healer holds his hands on or
above you. A treatment can last an hour
or longer depending on the treatment
required. Reiki practitioners use the
standard hand positions and commonly a
full treatment is given covering all the
important organs of the body.
There is no pressure on the body making
it ideal for treating all ages and
conditions, sometimes hands are even
held away from the body. The energy
flows wherever it is required
(spiritually guided) and can normally be
felt as a warm sensation or tingling in
the body. Receiving Reiki is a very
relaxing and soothing experience! While
receiving reiki all you have to do is
close your eyes, breathe deeply, and
relax. Usually the practitioner plays
some soft, calming music.
Reiki sessions are always very soothing
with receivers often going into a
meditative state or even into a light
sleep! Reiki is an excellent therapy for
physical healing as well as for healing
emotional wounds.
One can view Reiki sessions as an
opportunity to center and discover what
it was that one needed at that moment to
function more effectively in life. They
can be your special time to slow down
and catch a glimpse of your direction
and purpose.
I would recommend Reiki for just about
anyone. I suspect anyone who is a Reiki
Master could help you with whatever
healing you seek, be it physical or
otherwise. If nothing else, Reiki is an
unparalleled method of allowing
ourselves to find a brief period of
peace in our hectic twenty-first century
lives.
