Reiki Healing

As Valentines Day approaches, many men are getting nervous as they know they will be put on the spot yet again to give the best gift that they can. Men tend to put to much pressure on them selves when this holiday rolls around as they think they need to be extra romantic and somehow outdo every other man, where the gift giving is concerned. In reality, nothing could be further from the truth.

This doesn’t have to be a hard holiday and men do not need to go to great lengths to prove their undying love to their number one leading lady. All you need is a little bit of creativity, some research, understanding and you will come out on top when she opens her gift. One thing you can be sure of is that you should try to stay away from the cliché gifts such as chocolate and cheap flowers from the gas station.

Woman love to be pampered and it really doesn’t take much to make a woman feel appreciated and value with such attention. You can get her a gift certificate to a nail salon so she can get a manicure and pedicure when ever she likes. Women love to feel taken care of and this is a great way to let her sit down and relax, letting someone else take care of her. This is a great choice for a Valentines gift and will get you great brownie points as well.

You can also go with a gift certificate to a local salon where she can get a full body massage, a facial or even a hot rock massage. The ideas are virtually limitless, especially when you consider relaxing and pampering alternative therapies like reiki or aromatherapy. You can get the gift certificate for something specific or you can leave it open so she can spend it as she wants when she gets to the salon. Many salons will have long periods in which the gift certificate can be used, so there’s no rush or pressure to make an appointment before the gift expires.

If money is an issue then you can also check with local schools that teach massages classes or even nail techs. They offer the same services for a much lower price and the services are performed by the top students under the supervision of their teachers so you can be sure that she will get top quality care and get the pampering that she so deserves.

Buying the perfect Valentines gift doesn’t have to be a problem and it shouldn’t be a cause of such stress. It is waiting till the last minute and then panicing that will get you into trouble. Waiting that long to make your gift purchase leaves you with little to choose from and the end result will inevitably show your loved one how little thought you put into the gift. Valentines Day is one of the most popular holidays and you can be sure that the shelves in the stores will clear out quickly. Time and creativity are the key essentials when it comes to getting the perfect Valentine’s Day gift.

One of EFT’s most useful aspects is its flexibility in working with other energy treatments.

Many clinicians’ efforts are to focus their attention on the problem while balancing or remove an obstruction to the body’s energy system. This influences them to combine EFT with other procedures. Other kinds of healing bring better and speedier results when combined with EFT.

Hypnotherapists use EFT while their patients are in trance and ask them to tap on the specific acupoints to intensify the core emotion that causes the problem. This allows the patients to eliminate and neutralize this emotion faster and use their own intuition for healing. By attaining emotional freedom, they return to a natural state of balance and strength. The combination of EFT and hypnosis likewise helps patients boost their confidence and good traits.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) works even better when EFT is infused. With the movements of the eyes, the emotional charge associated with a traumatic experience is easily accessed. However, many patients with risk of destabilization or suicide are not ready for EMDR right away. For better supervision and support, they must make some progress in areas such as tolerating their emotions first. This is where the tapping sessions of EFT come in.

Acupuncture and EFT go by the same principles. They both tackle the meridian acupoints and the flow of energy through the body. However, they differ in the manner of application. While acupuncture uses needles, EFT involves tapping of the fingers. It takes many years for acupuncturists to master their field, and they must be properly licensed. For this, acupuncture cannot be self-administered like the EFT. This is likewise the reason why acupuncturists teach EFT to their patients for home use.

Massage therapists merge it into their job. Working hands-on with the human body in pain, they can feel whether there is an openness or resistance to unwinding the muscular tension. When resistance is felt, they stop massaging and shift to EFT tapping. Once they resume the massage work, the muscles are more loose as compared how it was prior to the tapping.

Making a fear disappear with Reiki, the practitioner positions his hand over the patient in the Distance symbol. This sends Reiki back to the time when the fear first occurred and became a problem. The patient then regresses and changes the past based on how he wanted it to be then and on how he perceives the situation will occur if it happened now. When the patient’s memories get intense and vivid, he diverts to EFT tapping. Then he leads the patient to a pretense, which will let the patient find his real identity resurfacing.

Medical doctors and healing practitioners of all sorts incorporate EFT with the psychotherapeutic alternative cure that they carry out. Emotional Freedom Technique is so versatile that it can complement other procedures grounded by the similar theories and methodology. They are compatible with each other because they share the common goal of freeing the energy system from negative emotions that block the balance of the human body.

Many individuals have troubles understanding the concept of distant healings. They understand that Reiki is a form of energy that while invisible to the naked eye is perceivable as temperature changes. In this way, they know that when they receive Reiki from a practitioner in person, they will actually feel the energies doing their job.

However, for many of the same people, it is beyond their comprehension that Reiki could travel over great distances and still be effective. To them, it seems almost fantastical. Of course, this skepticism is eliminated as soon as they have a distant session and feel the same effects as if the practitioner were working on them in person.

I have to admit, I was one of the skeptical myself. Yet after having both received and given distant sessions, it is now my preferred method of delivery. It is extremely flexible allowing me to help people anywhere in the world, including those individuals who live in places that don’t have adequate medical facilities or access to specialists such as myself. It also allows me to lower my fees because I no longer have to factor in travel expenses.

So how does distant healing work? We already know that Reiki is a form of energy like light and sound. We also know that some waves such as radio and television can be sent over long distances. The programs we listen to are often broadcast miles maybe even hundreds or thousands of miles away from our homes. It is said that such waves travel into space beyond our planet. Of course, we can’t see or touch these energies as they travel. All we know is that we turn on the radio and there is sound or we turn on the television and there is picture and sound.

For the receiver, the key to getting access to these frequencies is knowing where and how to tune in. For the sender there are other considerations such as amplification of the signal and directing it as required. We won’t get into that here as these complex concepts are part of what Reiki practitioners are taught in their specialized training.

Suffice it to say that for the person receiving Reiki through distant healing, the process is deceptively easy. Once they know who to tune in to the energies, their experience is much like a Reiki session done in person. It’s simple. Just as turning on the radio or watching television seems almost like magic.

A Guided Meditation Reiki Healing Session with original art, music and narration by Asa

Audio Downloads are available at:

http://www.sourcevibrations.com/Downloads.html

Transcription:

So, I’d like you to sit back and relax
and just focus on your breathing.
because in a moment, we are going to be accessing higher vibrational energy
from the infinite source of love and healing.
And there are many energies that we can access.
but for the purposes of this meditation exercise,
we are going to access the Reiki energy.

So, imagine, if you will, the inside of your body being perfectly hollow.
You are an empty cup and as you breathe deeply,
relaxing completely,
the electric-blue light of Reiki is going to be entering into your body
through the top of your head;
filling your body up from the bottom up
until you are entirely full and overflowing with Reiki healing energy.

So, breathe deeply and relax completely
and with each inhale,
take this Reiki energy in through the top of your head
and like water allow it to fall all the down through your body
and begin to fill and pool up inside of your feet;
filling up your toes, your feet, all the way up to your ankles
and as you exhale, exhale the darkness,
exhale the stress, the negativity the tension,
the fear or whatever ailment is bothering you.
Just let it go.

Exhale.

Inhale in this Reiki light;
filling up your legs,
all the way up to your knees,
all the way up to your waist.
Exhaling your concerns,
your fears, your worries.

Allowing yourself to completely enter into this moment
surrendering to this Light of Love and Healing.
Let this light fill your torso;
filling all the way up to your chest and spilling over into your arms,
filling up your fingers, your hands your forearms,
all the way up to your shoulders and your neck,
filling up your head
until your entire body is completely full and overflowing
with this Reiki energy.

Continue to breathe deeply, relaxing completely
and allow this energy to work deeper into your body.
You can, if you wish, visualize the various systems of your body.
Imagining this light radiating and pouring through those systems;
your cardiovascular system,
beaming with this Light Energy,
filling your blood stream
with this Reiki energy.

Imagining these symbols circulating throughout your entire body.

Imagining your respiratory system;
seeing your lungs as you breathe in,
being filled with this electric-blue energy;
entering into the capillaries,
re-energizing and vitalizing
and oxygenating the blood stream;
watching as this healing Light circulates
throughout your entire respiratory system
and cardiovascular system,
from the biggest veins in your body
all the way to the tiniest capillaries in your brain.

And you can imagine your nervous system,
this beautiful network of highways,
branching off and splintering off in all directions like a tree
transmitting the electrochemical impulses
back and forth between the body and the brain
and imagine this circuitry within your body
being flooded with this beautiful, electrical-blue light.

You can see these symbols traveling through the corridors of your nervous system;
removing blockages, balancing the circuitry,
connecting various highways.
making communication and information transfer
much more effective
and just exhaling all the muted colors you see in your body.

Inhaling…
clear, blue-electrical light
and exhaling the darkness.

Now, you can continue this visualization, if you’d like,
imagining all the various systems of your body
and allowing this Reiki energy to penetrate more deeply into these systems;
cleansing and combining and integrating them.

These days, people are focusing more and more on making natural choices. Organic foods, regular exercise, naturopathic medicine, herbal remedies and even electric or electric hybrid cars are becoming regular elements in daily life. For many, alternative therapies such as Pranic, Tantric, and Reiki healings have become the rule rather than the exception.

If you have interest in New Age literature, or have studied areas of spirituality, sexuality and healing, you have likely seen terms like “chakra”, “prana”, “aura”, and “tantra”. Here you will come to understand the meanings of some of these exotic vocabularies.

“Chakra” is your energy center. It is a term used in the ancient Hindu system of healing known as Pranic healing. “Prana” means life energy. “Aura” is another word that can be traced to Pranic healing. The aura is a non-physical body consisting only of energy, which exists along with our physical body. It has been said that there are seven layers to the aura that surrounds the human body. These layers are the manifestation of an individual’s physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual energies. By studying the color and thickness of the auras, it is believed that one can determine the state of an individual’s health. The aura is divided into six colors signifying six individual personalities. These colors are all present in an individual aura, but one or two are generally more pronounced.

Red – activist

Violet – psychic

Green – ambitious achiever

Blue – spiritual peacemaker

White – unconventional chameleon

Orange – creative communicator

Tantra is most popularly associated with a particular practice of sex and spirituality, but it is also a method of energy healing. Tantra is derived from the word “tan”, meaning to spread or expand. The concept of connectedness is a recurring theme in Tantric writings on sex and spirituality. Spirituality and sexuality figure prominently in the Tantric method of healing. It is believed that the union of man and woman can reach spiritual levels during orgasm, which removes collected impurities from the body and mind. These impurities are negative energies that, if not removed, can manifest as physical illnesses.

Unlike Pranic and Tantric healings, which have Hindu origins, Reiki healing originated in Japan. Reiki is a relatively younger healing method than Pranic and Tantric healings, having been rediscovered in the early 1900′s. Reiki stands for universal energy brought forth by higher intelligence. Students of Reiki are taught how to tap this energy to heal physical, emotional, and mental illnesses.

Although Pranic, Tantra, and Reiki are all systems of energy healing, they differ in the type of energy tapped for healing: Pranic is life energy, Tantra is sexual energy, and Reiki is universal energy.

These healing methods are all similar in their concepts of the connectedness of mind, body, and spirit, the connection of individuals to the universe and to all living and nonliving things around them, and in the way the energy impacts physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being.

People are turning to Pranic, Tantric, and Reiki as alternative methods of healing. In spite of the availability and relative accessibility of modern medicine, there are several reasons that more and more people are being drawn to them:

Energy healing can work where modern medicine has failed

For reasons both explainable and mysterious, modern medical treatments can fail to heal ailments and conditions in certain patients. While research and available data may not be available to support this statement, the patients and their families will gladly accept the risk. In an attempt to find relief or a cure, these people may choose to use a number of alternative treatments including herbals and organics, faith healers, witch doctors and New Age healing techniques.

Modern medicine to be isolating

Medical treatments can often focus on the disease and its cause, leaving he patient feeling isolated. Although recent developments in hospital practice are beginning to promote the holistic treatment of patients, patients can still be left feeling like a mere host of the disease. In energy healing, spirituality and energy are intimately linked, leaving patients to feel as if all aspects of their health are being attended to.

Energy healing is non-obtrusive

Repeated surgical procedures can be physically and emotionally traumatic for most patients. Therefore, it is a logical and attractive option to patients and their families to turn to less stressful health interventions. Natural treatment is also the option of choice for the rising New Age religion population.

Energy healing relieves stress

Meditation is part and parcel of energy healing methods, and becomes greatly beneficial for highly stressed people. Further, because sophisticated equipment is not required, it is much more convenient for students and future students of energy healing.

Both mainstream medicine and alternative healing have benefits. We are fortunate to live in a society that encourages personal choice, so there are supporters in both arenas. Should you find the need for physical healing, research your options and choose the method that’s best for your personal situation. In the final analysis, what matters most is the restoration of your good health.

The sacral chakra is body area located between the upper parts of the sacrum. This chakra is important in helping with healing, communicating with and opening up to universal energies in Reiki. Because of this, the sacral chakra is used as a way to aid healing. There are various methods used by Reiki practitioner to open this chakra in order to allow universal energies to move and communicate through the body.

Also known as the cross center, the sacral chakra is thought to hold sexual energy, emotions, sexual energies and creative energy. A person who is strong in this chakra center, will have an easier time with out of body experiences. Because of this, it is vital to make sure that the sacral chakra is not blocked and is able to exchange with universal energies. The sacral chakra’s main function is the characteristics of creative energies. The creative energies are usually developed between the ages of 7 and 14. Many attribute this chakra with holding the sense of taste as well. Eastern tradition the sacral chakra is known as the six petal lotus, and is connected to the element of earth. If this chakra is blocked, it will affect you mentally, physically, and emotionally.

When a Reiki practitioner is healing this area, they will begin by placing their hands on the sacrum. This may be done from the front or the back of the person. With females, they will unblock the sacral chakra by rotating to the right. In males, they will unblock by rotating to the left. In addition to clearing the area, it is thought to help problems with the reproductive glands or the prostate as well. Some will choose include certain attunements and mantras when doing this. The first mantra that might be used is a vam sound. The mantra is used in the tune of D. Some may also clear this chakra while using aromatherapy. Sandalwood and ylang-ylang oil are the two recommended aromas to use. If you prefer, they can also combine this with the use of a gemstone. The two best types of gemstones to use in this case are carnelian and moonstones.

When the Reiki process is complete, the sacral chakra should open to the universal energies. In its pure state, one may see an orange-colored aura surrounding this chakra. Often after having had this section cleared, a person will sleep for eight to ten hours in a fetal position. They may also see visions of moonlight and clear water during or after the process.

When one opens their sacral chakra, they are open to the universal energies in relation to their emotions and creativity. Eoing this not only helps to heal physical ailments, such as in the reproductive area, but also will help in clearing emotional blockage. Any combination of the previously-mentioned techniques can be used when clearing the sacral chakra.

There are many ways in which we may lose our way, crumple our self-esteem, or simply lose confidence for a period of time.
But whatever happens, we should try never to lose our own sense of Self. This sense of Self is accessed very deeply every time we Turn On our Reiki, and it is an inherently protective and Spiritually Building Experience.

1. Knowing Your Purpose – in Reiki and Life
You may sometimes find yourself wandering through life with little direction – hoping that you’ll find happiness, health and prosperity… and this is okay. However, identify your life purpose or personal Mission and you will have your own unique compass that will lead you (Intuitively) to your truth north every time.

This may seem tricky at first when you feel yourself to be in a tight or even dead end. But there is always that little glimmer of Grace that can turn things around and your acknowledgement of this combined with a focus on your Mission, can make a big difference to your experience.

2. Knowing Your Core Values
Ask Yourself – What do you value the most? Make a list of your top 5 values. Some examples are security, family, freedom, spiritual development, learning. As you set your goals for the coming months or year – check your goals against your values. If the goal doesn’t align with any of your top five values – you may want to reconsider or revise it, as your values will constantly empower these goals.

3. Know Your True Needs
Needs that are not being met can keep you from living authentically. These unmet needs zap energy from your entire system. Take care of yourself. You must acknowledge if you have a need to be acknowledged, to be right, to be in control, to be loved? There are so many people who have lived their lives without realizing their dreams and most of them end up being stressed out or even depressed, without any real knowledge as to why this is so. List your top four needs and get them met before it’s too late! And keep in mind that some needs are Daily or Weekly needs – they keep you going!

4. Know Your Real Passions
You do know who you are, and what you truly enjoy in life. Obstacles like doubt and lack of enthusiasm will only hinder you, but will not derail your chance to become the person you know yourself to be. Express yourself and honor the people who have Inspired you to become the very person you want to be. And, remember to pass on this Inspiration to others- it’s always easier than it first seems! A simple sharing of a story or just a few reflective words are usually enough to make a Real Difference.

5. Live – From The Inside Out
Daily, focus on increasing your awareness of your inner wisdom by regularl reflection in silence. Commune with nature. Breathe deeply, and quiet your distracted or restless mind. For most of us it’s hard to even find the peace and quiet we want – even in our own home. Simply sit in a dimly lit room and play some soothing music. The benefits of this internal world will Amaze you.

6. Honor Your Strengths
Tell me, what are your positive traits? What special talents do you possess? List three – and if you get stuck, ask those closest to you to help identify these. Are you imaginative, playful, witty, good with your hands? Find ways to express your authentic self through your strengths. This allows Inspiration to flow through you. You naturally increase your self-confidence when you can share what you know to others.

7. Serving Others
Living Authentically, you may find that you develop an interconnected sense of being. When you are true to who you are, living your purpose and giving of your talents to the world around you, you give back in service what you came to share with others – your spirit expressed – your essence revealed. The rewards for sharing your gift with those close to you is extremely rewarding, and much more if it were to be the eyes of a stranger who can appreciate what you have done to them.

This kind of introspective Self-Improvement is indeed one type of work that is worth every effort. It shouldn’t always be within the confines of an office building, or maybe in the four corners of your own room. The difference lies within ourselves and how much we want to change for the better. Your Reiki practice will benefit a Hundred Fold through your own self knowledge!

The 5 Reiki Precepts.

The five Reiki precepts have been handed down from Reiki master to student since the start of Reiki.

Just For Today, I Will Not Worry.

Just For Today, I Will Not Anger.

Just For Today, I Will Earn My Living Honestly.

Just For Today, I Will Honor My Parents, Elders, and Teachers.

Just For Today, I Will Show Gratitude For Everything.

To me it almost sounds like they could have come from a 12 step program, but I have to say that there is wisdom in these words. Taken all together and lived every day can lead one to live a beautiful life.

What you read above was the original version I was taught. For my own self I have changed the wording slightly to eliminate the negative. Every time we say “I will not”, we are fighting the “will” and thus it is more difficult to accomplish whatever it is we wanted to accomplish!

Just For Today, I Will Not Worry.

Today, I Am Worry Free!

Here, I am not willing myself to do anything, I am declaring that I am worry free! There is no fear of worry, there is nothing negative in the statement. The word “Just” adds limits and if we are reminding ourselves of these precepts all the time, the “Just” just doesn’t fit!

If I am “just worry free today”, that means I can worry tomorrow!

The subconscious is always listening and picks up on these things.

Words are very powerful and should be used wisely!

Just For Today, I Will Not Anger.

I Am Happy Today!

Again, I drop the “Just”, I leave the “Will” out of it and drop the two negatives, “not” and “anger”.Recite those two sentences aloud and see which one feels better.

Just For Today, I Will Earn My Living Honestly.

I Am Honest And Fair In All My Undertakings!

This one makes me laugh, does it mean that yesterday I was dishonest and tomorrow I can rob a bank?

Just For Today, I Will Honor My Parents, Elders, and Teachers.

I Respect, Honor, and Love My Parents, Elders, and Teachers!

There are variations out there in which the parents, elders and teachers get reduced to neighbors, not a change I am in favor of, for our Parents and Elders should not be reduced to being neighbors and all in the world can teach us something! Our Parents and Elders are to be held in the highest esteem, along with our teachers. This statement encompasses every person in our lives!

Just For Today, I Will Show Gratitude For Everything.

I Am Thankful And Grateful For All The Good In My Life, For All Good I Have Been Given And All The Good That Is Coming To Me!

We are to be grateful everyday! Not “Just” today! And we need to be grateful for everything that touches us, and not just as a “Show”!

Yes, the 5 precepts in themselves are good starting points, but you must make them yours in a way in which they are truly yours.
