There is a energy that gives life to every living organism, for many years we have known of this energy and have sought to develop ways to harness its power to heal and influence our lives.
Energy Ki
It is also known as Chi by the Chinese, Prana by a number of Asian cultures and the Holy Spirit or Holy Ghost by most of the western world.
We carry this energy in and around our bodies from the moment we are conceived. Science has established its existence, and with the aid of Kirlian photography we are able to see this energy that encompasses all living things. Many cultures have harnessed and applied this energy for healing since before the birth of Jesus Christ.
Many successful disciplines such as Reiki, Feng Shui, Meditation and Yoga have been developed to control and greatly enhance the flow of this energy in and around the body.

Reiki is a form of hands on healing, with its origins in India and the East dating back many thousands of years to the time before Christ and Buddha.
The original name, disciplines and techniques of Reiki were lost due to the traditional method of passing knowledge from generation to generation by word of mouth. But it was rediscovered by a Japanese Scholar and monk, by name, Dr Mikao Usui.
Reiki means the universal life force!
Reiki is channelled through the hands
When you place your hands on your own body for the purpose of healing you connect with the universal life force. The wisdom of Reiki then goes to work to bring about healing, balance and whatever is needed on a holistic level.
The 5 Reiki Principles
The Reiki principles are spiritual ideals. By adopting these precepts you will add balance and substance to your life:
Just for today I will not worry.
Just for today I will not be angry.
Just for today I will do my work honestly.
Just for today I will give thanks for my many blessings.
Just for today I will be kind to my neighbour and every living thing.
Self Treatment Hand Positions
There is no right or wrong way to work with Reiki on oneself. As you become more experienced with the Reiki energy you will intuitively move your hands to wherever it feels right. If you are aware of a specific problem such as an injury or pain, then you should place your hands directly over that area to begin with, and follow up with a full self treatment. Hold your palms for at least 3 minutes in that position.
