Reiki, a Powerful Tool for Mind, Body and Spirit

Saturday, September 27th, 2008

Nowadays, the interest in alternative medicine is growing rapidly. Among the vast number of healing modalities available, we find that Reiki has become increasingly popular around the world, especially since science has verified the existence of the universal life energy that Reiki is based on. Reiki is a powerful holistic healing system; it heals on all levels, physical, mental, emotional and spiritual.

So what is Reiki? The term Reiki is the Japanese word for Universal Life Force Energy. It is a very simple and easily acquired healing method that uses universal life energy, the energy which permeates our entire universe and all living things. This universal life energy is called qi or chi in China, prana in India, and ki in Japan and this is where the Reiki name derives. It circulates throughout the body and in an energy field surrounding the body. This energy field, long been known to healers and mystics, is now verified by scientists. Recent scientific experiments have verified the existence of this life force energy. Scientists have proven that everything in the universe, at a sub-atomic level, is made up of energy. Health is the harmonious flow of life energy, while imbalances in this flow, due to unhealthy habits or negative emotions lead to illness. So this subtle energy is responsible for the processes in our body on all levels: physical, emotional and mental. Reiki channels universal life energy through the hands of the practitioner into the body of the receiver and balances the energy flow in the body.

Reiki is a holistic healing system, meaning that it addresses the whole person: the physical, mental, emotional and the spiritual levels. The body is not made up of isolated parts to be fixed, like a machine; there are no separate parts, but an amazing web of energy, and in order to truly return to health, all the levels of our being must be addressed.

Reiki works on four different levels:

The physical level: Reiki strengthens the immune system. It helps in relieving pain. It balances and harmonizes the function of glands and organs. It heals by opening the blocked energy channels, the meridians, and balances the chakras. When performed regularly, toxins are removed from the body and good health and well-being is maintained.

The emotional level: One of the greatest healing benefits of Reiki is stress reduction and relaxation, which strengthens the immune system and maintains health. People who are depressed or do not feel emotionally balanced begin to feel more stable and relaxed because Reiki clears energy blockages and suppressed emotions.

The mental level: Through giving yourself Reiki, you obtain more clarity and find it easier to overcome obstacles and achieve goals. You become more positive and reach a different outlook on life. You feel more empowered.

The spiritual level: Reiki enables you to go deeper within and feel more connected to your higher self. It aids meditation, increases intuition and provides limitless benefits of spiritual growth.

Reiki is so simple yet so powerful, and this is what makes it a unique healing system that anyone can learn, because it does not require any previous experience or special ability. The Benefits of Reiki are infinite. It allows you to take an active part in your own wellness, and accelerates your growth on all levels.

Chakra Meditation for Healing - Chakra 1 - Muladhara (Base or Root) Chakra

Friday, September 26th, 2008

1st - Muladhara (Base) Chakra ~ EARTH ~ RUBY RED

Muladhara (Base or Root) Chakra - From Sanskrit Muladhara can be translated as “That which Holds the Base or Root.”

Focus your awareness at the Muladhara or Base Chakra, your vital Root center, located at the end of your spine, the serpent’s tailbone.

See a whirling ball of Ruby Red Colored light pulsing with energy in this center. This is your procreative life force energy. Its nature is forceful and passionate.

Feel this warm Ruby Red Colored light and breathe deeply into this energy center. This is your core life energy that connects you to the earth and ALL of Life.

Your survival instincts are centered here. Feel yourself anchored to the earth through this energy center. Feel the Warm Ruby Red Color of Earth as it penetrates your body and flows down through your legs and into your feet, supporting you to move upon the earth.

You feel connected to all that is through this energy center. Recognize your connection and affirm, “I am one with all of life now and forever. I AM SAFE.”

Embrace any fear or doubt that separates you from others, that separates you from life. Allow your feeling of separateness to leave you now.

Gratitude: “I give thanks for being one with all of life.” Breathe out any residual resistance you may feel to living the truth that ALL IS ONE. Affirm once more, “I am one with all of life NOW and FOREVER. I AM SAFE.”

To develop, nurture and stablize your sense of Absolute Safety and Well-being practice this breathing visualization and affirmation exercise daily, prior to falling asleep and on waking. Feel the TRUTH of it Deep Within Your Being and Relax.

Emotional stagnation or blockage at your Base Chakra emits an energy frequency that resonates with feeling disconnected from one’s tribe, community or family, the sense of not belonging is accompanied by frustration, rage and thwarted passion.

Related physical imbalances, include: sciatica, prostrate, uterine, ovarian and hemorrhoid conditions.

Recite this Mantra six times aloud as you continue to focus your awareness at your Muladhara Chakra. Remember to inhale and exhale fully as you recite the mantra.

I Grow, I Love, I Create, I Transmute

Recite this same mantra silently six times within yourself as you continue to focus your awareness at your Muladhara Chakra. Remember to inhale and exhale fully as you recite the mantra.

I Grow, I Love, I Create, I Transmute

You will sound the Seed Syllable LA (Keynote C Major) while continuing to focus your awareness at your Muladhara Chakra for five minutes.

First Clear and Balance your Muladhara Chakra for 4 minutes duration by allowing images to naturally surface and melt away as blockages are cleared and balance restored in your Muladhara Chakra.

C Major TONE - LA ————————

Conclude your visualization and recitation of the Seed Syllable LA by seeing your Muladhara Chakra as a clear and vibrant whirling ball of Bright RUBY RED Colored light pulsing with energy at this center (1 minute duration).

Remember to inhale fully and exhale as you visualize your Muladhara Chakra being clear, vibrantly alive and healthy.

You have completed the first cycle for clearing, balancing and charging your Rainbow Bridge.

As you become adept at working with your chakras you may gradually increase the time you focus your attention on each energy center. Initially your focus should be for no more than five minutes duration.

A regular practice of these exercises will result in an increased amplitude for each of your Major Chakras and give you the necessary stamina to dispel life obstacles. Increased amplitude of your energy centers will greatly enhance your vital life force and positively impact your health and longevity.

Your regular practice of these guided visualization and affirmation exercises is a conscious investment you can choose to make in building your personal power which will enable you to direct your spirit.
