Reiki is far more than a simple hands-on healing method; it is a spiritual path and a complete philosophy of life. Rooted in the universal life energy, transmitted through the heart, Reiki promotes total harmony of the body, mind, and soul, guiding us toward balance, serenity, and transformation.

1. Origins and Meaning

The word Reiki comes from Japanese:

• Rei (霊) represents Divine Intelligence or Universal Wisdom.
• Ki (気) is the Life Force that animates all things.

Thus, Reiki is the Life Force guided by the Wisdom of the Universe. Rediscovered and systematized in the early 20th century by master Mikao Usui, Reiki offers a path of self-healing and happiness, emphasizing personal growth as much as physical or emotional well-being.

At the heart of Reiki are the Five Principles, daily practices that help raise your vibration:

• Just for today, release anger → To find inner peace.
• Just for today, release worry → To let go of control and trust life.
• Just for today, be grateful → To cultivate abundance and gratitude.
• Just for today, work honestly → To live in alignment with your heart.
• Just for today, be kind to others and yourself → To nurture love and compassion.

2. How Reiki Works: Hands and Symbols

Reiki is primarily practiced through hands-on energy healing. The practitioner does not use their own energy but serves as a neutral channel for universal energy, placing hands on or above the body to transmit life force where it is most needed. This helps release emotional blocks and stagnant energy, fostering deep relaxation and natural regeneration.

For advanced work, Reiki employs sacred symbols (introduced from the second level). These symbols are keys of intention and frequency enhancers, enabling the practitioner to:

• Focus energy (power symbol)
• Work on mental and emotional patterns (harmony symbol)
• Send healing energy across time and space (connection symbol)

Reiki thus transcends time and space, offering profound support on all levels.

3. When and Why to Receive Reiki

Reiki is a holistic approach, supporting the whole being. It is used for:

• Emotional release: Easing grief, anxiety, anger, and past traumas.
• Stress and fatigue: Recharging energy and restoring relaxation for cellular repair.
• Supporting illness: Complementing medical treatments, reducing side effects, and enhancing the body’s self-healing ability.
• Mental clarity: Centering the mind, accessing guidance, and making conscious decisions.
• Personal growth: Raising vibrational frequency and strengthening self-esteem.

4. The Initiatory Structure: Reiki Levels

Reiki is transmitted through initiations, opening channels to deeper levels of consciousness:

• 1st Degree (Shoden): Focus on the physical body and self-treatment.
• 2nd Degree (Okuden): Work with mind and emotions, introduction to symbols, and distance healing.
• 3rd Degree (Shinpiden): Master level, connecting with the Master Symbol and deeper spiritual insight.
• 4th Degree (Gokuikaiden): Teaching level, ensuring the continuity of the Reiki lineage.

5. The Benefits of Reiki

Reiki positively affects all aspects of the being:

Physical: Reduces pain and inflammation, strengthens immunity, improves sleep, and accelerates natural healing.

Mental/Emotional: Eases stress and anxiety, releases limiting thought patterns, enhances clarity, and promotes surrender.
