Reiki, pronounced, 'ray-key', is the Japanese name for an ancient hands on healing technique. The word 'Rei' means 'Universal'. This is a very general interpretation, because Japanese ideograms have many levels of meaning. So, a deeper depiction of the word would be closer to 'higher knowledge', or 'spiritual consciousness'. The word 'Ki' means 'vital life force energy', which is the same as 'Chi' in Chinese, 'Prana' in Sanscrit or 'Ti' in Hawaiian. The literal translation means,''Spiritually-guided Life Force Energy". Reiki describes an ancient technique whereas the attuned individual energetically opens to this 'Ki' energy, and is able to transmit or broadcast to the receiver. The earliest known documentation is in ancient Egypt, known as 'Sekhem', with references to this same technique in many ancient cultures. This treatment is subtle yet dynamic, and works through the nervous system to relieve pain, balance chakra energies and to create a sense of well-being for the receiver and practitioner. Reiki is a very powerful, yet gentle energy technique that is easily received. During a treatment session, the patient is fully clothed and lays on a massage table. The practitioner will perform a series of hand positions from head to toe, front to back on the patient. The practitioner acts as a medium for the Source energy to flow to the patient, and reported sensations range from hot to cold, 'tingly' or 'electric', or even," waves of energy..". Each session is different, and each person has a different experience. Common side effects are relaxation of the mind and body, clarity and focused train of thought (usually for long periods of time afterwards), renewed confidence, emotional rejuvenation and a general sense of well-being. Reiki will not violate anyone's free will. If a person refuses the energy, or verbally accepts but is not energetically open, the healer can do no more and the treatment should not continue. Reiki is completely positive energy, and will not cause harm to any living thing. It does not come from the healer, but from the Universe through her or him. The practitioner should not take credit for what happens during a session. ~ Sarah Jean Felina, Reiki Master https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6222aeed83527315004f0989/1652663298235-1NBBSHDCP4WB5FK6PECJ/unsplash-image-iAaoMFnNRWs.jpg Reiki - Benefits: ~ Relieves pain and physical discomfort ~ Relieves anxiety and PTSD ~ Eases depression ~ Boosts mood & enhances emotional equilibrim ~ Improves focus & mental clarity ~ Induces deep relaxation & aids insomnia ~ Accelerates the body’s ability to self heal ~ Supports immunity system ~ Boosts confidence & general wellbeing https://parrot-tarantula-cs7g.squarespace.com/assisted-stretching daily 0.75 2025-04-25 https://parrot-tarantula-cs7g.squarespace.com/meditation daily 0.75 2025-02-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6222aeed83527315004f0989/1672094958744-844SD4HW9G5Q8Q3ZBIJ7/unsplash-image-NTyBbu66_SI.jpg Meditation - 6 Week Course: This course introduces meditation to the student in multiple sessions, incorporating Zen, Mindfulness Techniques, Guided Meditation, Transcendental Meditation, Solfeggio Frequencies and Binaural Beats, and Walking Meditation.
