Practicing Reiki
Reiki is a beautiful self-care practice of simultaneous giving and receiving. Connecting to Source and your Higher Self. Being in the flow of energy. Checking in with your body. Healing yourself. Clearing your own energy field. Charging your own being with light energy.
Unlike other body work, Reiki is a self-care practice you can do yourself. You don’t need a practitioner or a table, a class or an attunement. All you need are your own two hands!
Reiki practice is as simple as putting your hands on your body and asking your Higher Self to send energy through you to you. Starting with where is hurts physically or emotionally. Then, moving through the various energy centers, commonly known as chakras. Or, selecting one area and giving it special attention.
The easiest way is to give yourself Reiki in your own bed, in the morning before you even open your eyes and at night as you are falling asleep. In the morning, start at the root chakra to bring your energy up for a productive day. At night, start at the crown chakra to bring your energy down for restorative sleep.
In 2015, when I started offering Reiki sessions, I would end each session with a quick self-care Reiki practice tutorial. Reiki hands. Reiki mantra to start the flow. Hand positions. Body positions.
I encourage my clients, and everyone, to practice this gentle energy healing themselves. And not to become dependent on a practitioner. Take full responsibility for their own personal health, well-being and energy body. Feel empowered to heal themselves. And stop looking outside of themselves for someone to fix them or heal them.
For some people, Reiki is part of their personal wellness plan. They get Reiki from their local Reiki Master on a regular basis the way they would get a weekly massage or acupuncture treatment. For others, like me, my first and only Reiki session was so profound that learning Reiki so I could practice it myself became essential. For still others, hands on healing may not resonate as strongly for them, either because of the timing, the initial experience or a disconnect with the practitioner.
The Truth is: people give themselves and others Reiki every day, all day long. They just don’t know it or realize it. When we touch each other with our hands, we are giving Reiki. When we touch someone’s hand or shoulder or knee. When we place our hand on someone’s back during a hug. When we hold hands, or encircle waists, or cradle heads, we are sending energy to them.
When a child falls down at the park and bumps its head and runs to its mother to be comforted, what is the first thing she does? She places her hand where it hurts. She places her hand on the back of the heart chakra or on top of the crown chakra or over the third eye chakra.
She is giving Reiki.
When you stub your toe or have a headache or pull a muscle, you immediately put your hand where it hurts. You might rub your feet or temples or sore shoulder. You might hold the part of your body that is in pain or massage the part that is aching.
You are giving yourself Reiki.
So, whether you start a daily self-care Reiki practice or become a Reiki Master. Whether you touch people for a living or touch your own family and friends with hugs and pats and rubs. Whether you make hands on energy healing a part of your life or use it for first aid and comfort as needed, you are healing yourself and others.
You are practicing Reiki.
