How exactly does Reiki Work? We are alive because of the life force energy flowing through us. The energy or "Ki" flows within the physical body using pathways called "chakras" and around the body in a field of energy called the "aura." The free and balanced flow of energy is the reason for health. When the flow of energy is disrupted, it causes diminished functioning within the tissues and organs of the body. Therefore, it is a disruption of our energy flow that is the main cause of illness. Energy is also affected by our thoughts and feelings. When we have positive thoughts and feelings , we increase our energy flow and we feel better. When negative thoughts become lodged in the subconscious mind, they create a disruption of our energy flow and we do not feel as good. Depending on the site of the blockage, certain tissues and organs can then become affected by the disrupted flow. If the blockages are not released, then we can eventually become ill. When a person receives a Reiki treatment, the God-consciousness part of the energy assesses where the person has the blocks and directs the healing energy to the blockages. The Reiki energy then works with negative thoughts and feelings that are blocking one's natural flow of energy. By flowing through the affected parts of the energy field and charging them with positive energy, Reiki raises the vibration level in and around the physical body where the negative thoughts and feelings are attached. This causes the negative energy block to break apart and fall away. Reiki clears, straightens, and heals the energy pathways, allowing a healthy flow of energy. Once the energy is flowing naturally, the organs and tissues can then complete their healing process. Posted By: Lady Surya/Reiki Master |
