Learn Reiki

Reiki was founded by Dr. Mikao Usui from Japan. He was intrigued with the ability of Jesus Christ to heal by touching sick people with His hands. In his research, he found that the body is a field of energy and this energy flows according to certain paths through it. The word ‘Reiki’ means ‘universal life energy’ in Japanese. Thus, Reiki is the Japanese therapy of healing and stability which teaches that health (emotional, physical, mental and spiritual) depends on a flow of life energy in the body. When the flow of life energy is strong and unhindered, you enjoy good health. But sometimes, the flow of life energy in your body gets blocked in some way, resulting in sickness and various physical, mental, emotional or spiritual problems. This belief is also held by Ayurvedic and traditional Chinese medicinal practices like acupuncture. Learn Reiki

In Reiki classes, you will be taught how to unblock the life flow and increase it to heal sicknesses and alleviate other problems. Reiki is likened to traditional massage and is used to reduce stress, relieve pain, increase energy, strengthen the immune system, bring calmness and heal sicknesses such as asthma and arthritis.

Reiki training is divided into levels or degrees. In each level, you learn (or are attuned to) different skills according to a preset syllabus. To learn Reiki you need to enroll in a formal class, engage a personal tutor or learn it yourself. If you wish to enroll in a class, there are many schools or institutions to choose from; some are more conservative and stricter than others. Most would charge according to the level of training that you complete and each school has its own fee structure. For level one, the fees range from $75 to $200 whereas for the Reiki Master (highest) level, it is between $500 and $10,000. Reiki Masters

Reiki schools vary in the lengths of their courses and the way they conduct them. Some may require you to live in and enforce strict conditions, especially for training at the highest level. You may have to go through a period of apprenticeship or live an ascetic lifestyle or detoxify your body. All these are aimed at increasing the energy flow in the training.

Engaging a personal Reiki tutor is the best way to learn Reiki because you get personal attention. The tutor has to be a qualified Reiki Master for only a Reiki Master is able to induct new Reiki practitioners. But this option tends to be the most expensive. The most inexpensive method is to learn Reiki yourself but this is generally not advisable because you might obviously get things wrong. But there are lots of information and self-learn courses available on the Internet you could refer to if you choose this path of learning Reiki. Reiki
