Reiki is pronounced 'Ray' 'Key' and is Japanese for Universal Life Energy. Its all around us and we breath it in and out, but over time we have decided to ignore it and not utilise its healing nature! Its origins are from Japan and in particularly the 'Journey' Dr Usui undertook and his teachings about his attunement. There are no religious beliefs attached to Reiki so anyone can give or receive a treatment. The only prerequisite is to want to be healed. We are all tapped in to this incredible life force energy and with attunement can help ourselves and our close friends and family. My decision is to go one step further and be a Reiki Therapist.
I think its like a lot of things in life that bypass us. We get ill and go to the doctors and they administer antibiotics or another man made cure. Why not try a natural remedy... they have not stopped working.... we just consciously don't look for it! Its probably cheaper than a prescription too! Don't get me wrong I know that certain illnesses do need a doctors intervention but there is nothing wrong with trying to combine both and of course tell your doctor or nurse about what you are going to do. As with normal drugs combining a natural remedy with one from the doctors could cause side effects so its best to check first.
Which gets me back on to Reiki. This is not a therapy that replaces conventional means it is more of an aid to wellness and well being. You have to consciously want to receive Reiki otherwise it loses its effectiveness.I burn up like a furnace when its my time to heal and there is nothing I can do to stop it! In a similar way I go in to overdrive when I am writing or talking about Reiki. It's funny because I now know the feeling of having a 'burning desire'! I just did not think it would be all encompassing!
I did not get chance to self heal at work yesterday and I really felt a difference on the evening where I could not keep my eyes open so today is going to be different. I am determined to incorporate it in to my work routine because i have already felt the benefits of a less tired mind late afternoons.
I'm still struggling to know if this can be a viable full time business or weather I will have to combine other treatments to it to create a broader client base. My heart says its Reiki all the way but my conscious mind is pulling me back. As my nan used to say the proof of the pudding is in the eating... in other words over time I will find out if this path is the correct one. The good thing is during my process of finding my holistic business feet I still have a great job to go to and enjoy! For that I am oober grateful.
