What Is Reiki?

Reiki is a spiritual healing art and a type of Biofield Energy Therapy.

The predominant form of Reiki practiced worldwide today, also known as Usui Reiki, was developed by Dr. Mikao Usui in the early 20th century.

Reiki (pronounced ray-kee) is Japanese for “Universal Life Energy.” “Rei” means universal, omnipresent. Esoterically, it means spiritual consciousness, omniscient wisdom from the Divine. “Ki” is the non-physical vitality that gives life to all things. Ki energy can be activated for the purpose of healing.

Reiki is an ancient Japanese healing system in which the trained Reiki practitioner uses the Usui systems of Reiki to balance the Universal Life Energy within an individual. This energy therapy is based on the principle that everything in existence consists of light and energy that creates, flows, and sustains all of Life.

We must realize and remember that we are energy. Science is now catching up with what ancient cultures and systems have known for centuries… Life is not solid, everything is made up of energy. Our bodies are made up of energy. Our minds are energy, our emotions are energy. Even if we can’t see it, like our breath, the energy is there. We want coherency of energy in our system, so that the mind, the emotions, and the body are all working together in a healthy unison. This is what creates flow. The Universal Life Force is our fundamental natural state that helps facilitate our direct experience of wholeness and well-being.

Reiki is neither positive nor negative. It is in fact, the highest and most profound vibration of Life. Divine in origin, it allows us to become one with all living things alive in our world. Reiki is pure unconditional love and joy, bringing all who experience and embrace its principles into harmony and balance.

Reiki energy is gentle, yet very powerful. This Universal Life Force energy is highly intelligent and knows what the mind and body need in perfect order.

The beauty of Reiki is that it can be shared to support any and all life, including animals, birds, trees, plants, water, and land. Given that Reiki is Universal, it is the very foundation of life that all can be supported by and benefit from. For example, animals love Reiki. They seem to have a natural understanding of what Reiki is and its benefits. Once a pet has received a Reiki treatment, they will often let you know that they want more. Plants also respond very well to Reiki.

Reiki also involves a philosophy of living surrounding mind-body-spirit unity and connection to all things.

The 5 Reiki principles for living are:

Just for today…
