What is Reiki

What is Reiki?


Reiki is a simple, natural and safe method of spiritual healing and self-improvement that everyone can use. The word Reiki is made of two Japanese words - Rei which means "God's Wisdom or the Higher Power" and Ki which is "life force energy". So Reiki is actu-ally "spiritually guided life force energy."
Reiki is administered by "laying on hands" and is based on the idea that an unseen "life force energy" flows through us and is what causes us to be alive. If one's "life force en-ergy" is low, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy.
