ANSWERS - Reiki
1. What is Reiki?

Reiki (pronounced RAY-KEE) is a non-invasive, hands on, energy healing system which was founded by a Japanese man named Mikao Usui during the 20th century. The word is of Japanese origin and simply means 'universal' (Rei) and ' life force' (Ki) which is believed to always be flowing through our bodies.
Reiki is a system of healing that heals the body and mind. Using the methods within the Reiki system, a Reiki practitioner is able to transfer the Reiki energy (universal healing energy) via their hands and onto the client, restoring the client's body, mind and emotions into balance and harmony.

 
 
2. Where does Reiki come from?

Dr Mikao Usui, a Japanese educator in Kyoto, Japan, discovered and developed Usui Reiki at the end of the 19th century. Usui did an extensive study over the period of twenty-one years of the healing phenomena of history’s greatest spiritual leaders as well as ancient systems that are linked directly to the human body and the nervous system which activate the universal life energy for healing.

After undergoing a metaphysical experience personally, he then began to instruct others on this form of healing he named Reiki and taught it until his death in 1893. His tradition and methods were passed through several grandmasters of Reiki. Today, Reiki takes many forms, however, The Usui System of Natural Healing is still the form most widely practiced. Practitioners and Master Teachers are trained through an initiation process where Masters pass on their knowledge and expertise to their students.

 
 
 
3. How does Reiki work?

Everything in the universe is made up of energy. Each of us is filled and surrounded by this energy which is called Universal Life Force Energy. It is essentially the essence of our being and that which gives life and consciousness. This energy moves around and through us constantly and is utilised in our bodies to nourish every cell, organ and gland. This energy also radiates from our bodies and is called the human energy field (or aura).

If there is a disruption of our bodies life force energy then we become more susceptible to discomfort, further illness and disease. Disruption of the life force energy can occur when it is depleted, imbalanced or restricted by stress and "holding" injury, illness etc. When our energy is restored and vital we are more likely to feel relaxed and our body's own innate healing abilities are kick started and utilised for healing.

Reiki heals by flowing through the affected parts of the energy field and charging them with positive energy. It raises the vibratory level of the energy field in and around the physical body where negative energy and feelings are attached. This causes the disrupted energy to break apart and fall away. In so doing, Reiki clears, straightens and heals the energy pathways, thus allowing the life force to flow in a healthy and natural way.

 
 
4. Who can benefit from Reiki?

Reiki can be given to people, animals, plants... in short, all living things. It can also be used with inanimate objects, such as food or medicine, to support the healing/nurturing properties of the substance, as well as minimizing the effects of any harmful properties.
People utilise Reiki for a wide variety of health and wellbeing related purposes such as e.g.
•stress reduction, stress related ailments, anxiety
•emotional balancing, self esteem, mental clarity
•maintaining general wellness
•making or handling changes in your life
•relationships (single, couples, families), past trauma
•fatigue, problems sleeping
•pre and post surgery (relaxation before surgery, reduce recovery time and help with pain management)
•help to reduce side effects of medications or treatments (including individuals with cancer)
•living with chronic conditions
•mental, emotional, physical and spiritual healing
•improving immunity

 
 
5. Is Reiki safe?
Yes, Reiki is both safe and effective. Literally millions of people have benefitted from the healing touch of Reiki. Reiki is an appropriate treatment for all ages from infancy to the elderly. Reiki is used in hospitals, nursing homes and hospice programs. There are many nurses who have trained in Reiki for the benefit of their patients.

Reiki can be confidently given to pregnant women and is of great benefit in reducing stress and lowering blood pressure. Reiki will not harm the unborn baby but if you are uncomfortable with giving Reiki to your foetus then the Practitioner can ensure that only you receive the healing.

Reiki is also wonderful for children and they are often very open to receiving the Reiki energy given their lack of social blockages toward such therapies. A wonderful way to bond with your children is to learn Reiki yourself and be able to assist when they are unwell.

PLEASE NOTE: Reiki is not advised for people with mental disorders, anyone taking mood-altering medication or people under the influence of alcohol or recreation drugs.

 
 
6. Do you have to believe in Reiki for it to work?
No, the Reiki energy will work regardless of whether you believe in it or not. However, you may better support your own healing process by letting the energy in and not resisting it. If you choose to resist Reiki you will not receive the Reiki energy.
 
 
7. What happens during a Reiki session?
A typical session is usually 60 minutes long. During the first session, a discussion will usually take place to allow you the opportunity to discuss any particular problems or issues that you are experiencing and what you are hoping to achieve from the session. It is also time for the Practitioner to let you know what will happen and what you can expect during the session.
For the actual session, you will be asked to lay comfortably on a massage table on your back with your shoes removed. Reiki can be performed with the client sitting comfortably in a chair as well. Unlike massage therapy, no articles of clothing are removed so comfortable clothing is suggested. A session can either be hands-on, where a Practitioner will apply a light touch during the session, or hands-off where they will hold their hands slightly above your body. If you prefer not to be touched then you can indicate this to the practitioner before they begin. The practitioner's hands are placed along energy centres and pathways on the head, neck, chest, abdomen, legs, feet and back.
 
 
8. What will I feel during and after a Reiki treatment?

During a treatment, the client can feel a number of sensations such as heat, tingling, pins and needles, coldness, sweating, laughing, crying, twitching, but sometimes, there is no noticeable sensation whatsoever. All sensations (if any) are unique to the each individual because everyone has had different life experiences. Whether the client feels a sensation or not, by the end of the Reiki session, he/she will definitely feel a lot more relaxed, refreshed, and up-lifted, much like after having a great night's sleep!

 
 
9. How often do I need a Reiki session?
Reiki is safe and gentle and can be received on a daily basis without any harmful side effects. If a client's condition is chronic, then more sessions should be considered to assist with pain reduction, stress management and emotional discomfort. If the condition is acute, or the client has a general sense of well-being, then fewer sessions may be appropriate. Also, in the healing of unwanted habits and addictions, the client may need to have several sessions to see significant benefits.

We do recommend that if you have not received Reiki before that you start with 4 consecutive treatments (at least once a week is sufficient) to enhance the healing effects and shifts of energy.

 
 
10. Is Reiki a substitute for traditional medicine?
No. Reiki works in conjunction with regular medical or psychological treatment. If one has a medical or psychological condition, it is recommended that one see a licensed health care professional in addition to receiving Reiki treatments. Reiki energy works in harmony with all other forms of healing, including drugs, surgery, psychological care or any other method of alternative care and will improve the results.
 
Reiki is an ancient, hands-on healing technique that involves the channelling of universal life force energy into the client's body to facilitate the body's natural healing, relieve stress and fatigue, release tension and enhance clarity of the mind. Students will receive attunements which will align them with the universal energy, empowering them as a Reiki channel for life. You will also learn about hand positions and how to give/receive a full body treatment.

Reiki 2 is an optional advanced form of Reiki and allows the practitioner to increase the potency of the energy flow through the use of the Reiki symbols. You will receive attunements, learn the Reiki 2 symbols, and learn how to perform long distance healing.

Reiki 3 is also an optional level of Reiki which is aimed to allow students to turn into Reiki Masters so they can teach Reiki and give attunements to students.

My name is Peter Tri and i am the director of Eternal Spirit.
I am attuned to Usui Reiki - Level II and have been practicing for the last 5 years.
I love chanelling Reiki energy for all my clients because i find that without fail, the energy always seems to bring them such serenity and relaxation. Everyone always come out of the session feeling so vibrant, calm and in touch and at peace with their inner selves. Anything that they were stressed and worried about before the session began, always seem to be put back into perspective, ie. they realise that nothing really matters except their happiness which is brought forth via the Reiki energy that they receive.

Clients can experience a variety of emotions and physical sensations throughout the session. Sometimes they may not even feel like they're feeling a thing! Each session is unique and each individual is unique so it's hard to predict what one can go through. Some of the things that one MAY experience include seeing colours, falling asleep and having dreams, feeling heat/chills or tingling sensations over their body, uncontrollable twitching, crying and even laughter.

All sessions go for one hour and bookings may be done by calling my mobile directly.

PLEASE NOTE:
- Cash payments only
