Chronic aches and pains, feeling perpetually under the weather, no appetite, lack of sleep. Recognize any of these ailments as one of your best friends? Here’s what you need to do:
Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It’s now used by many nurses and volunteers in over 600 hospitals in the U.S. and in Canada. That’s because so many healthcare practitioners have discovered that Reiki is a wonderful tool to help their patients with pain management. Community-based centres like Wellspring that offer support programs for cancer patients and their families also provide Reiki ongoing basis… because they know it works.
Reiki has been effective in helping virtually every known illness and always generates a beneficial result. This includes minor ailments such as head or stomach aches, colds, coughs, tension and anxiety as well as serious illness such as heart disease and cancer.
And the wonderful thing about Reiki is that it is so simple and easy to learn and practise. In fact, it is not even learned. The ability to use Reiki is transmitted to you through a Reiki Master/Teacher in a procedure called an attunement. Very simple and so rewarding. In the first level you learn how to use this wonderful gift on yourself and others. Reiki is a hands-on modality so your teacher will demonstrate different ways to place your hands so that Reiki flows easily through your hands.
It does sound like hocus pocus but once you experience it you’ll become a believer. Why should you learn Reiki? It will help you to help yourself and others and provides you with a feeling of empowerment. When you are achy and miserable or coming down with a cough or cold, giving yourself a dose of Reiki can be the difference between spending a week hacking in bed or going about enjoying your life.
Level 1 is inexpensive, accessible and once you have been attuned, you have it for life.
Reiki On.
