Reiki

Our main goal is to assist lightworkers in raising the vibration of the world.  Beyond that, we further define our purpose with the following:
1)  Provide healing sessions in a clean and peaceful environment, facilitating one’s path to health and wholeness.

2)  Provide classes, instruction, attunements, and initiations that will allow people to take their healing process and enlightenment into their own hands.

3)  Provide additional tools to facilitate healing and wholeness.

4)  Provide resources to further one’s knowledge on healing and enlightenment.

This is a concept that is explored frequently by individuals involved in metaphysical work as well as those in the field of quantum physics.  The principle lies in the fact that beyond our body, beyond our organs, and even beyond our cells- we consist of vibration and energy- quarks, as referred to in quantum physics.  Instead of treating dis-ease at the topical level (traditional western medicine), energy medicine targets the very root of who we are- vibration and energy.  When energetic medicine (typically eastern in its origin or from indigenous populations) and western medicine (typically found in Europe, Australia, and U.S.) are used in combination, healing takes place at a much more rapid rate, and tends to result in more complete healing.

We make no claims to cure anyone.  Our work follows the belief that the body (including the physical body, the mental self, the emotional self, and the spiritual self) heals itself.  Going through a healing session allows one to receive energy that will clear and then instruct the body on an energetic and vibrational level as to how to heal itself.  Additionally, in shamanic practice we often delve into the cause of the ailment at a cognitive, yet spiritual level so that growth can be fostered.

Most people feel a sense of balance and general wellbeing.  Often, people will report fatigue for a couple of days following a session, which is largely due to the fact that the body is releasing toxins and realigning itself.  At times individuals will report emotional and mood swings.  Going through an “emotional cleanse” can be difficult, but is typically very cathartic since much of a dis-ease is generally rooted in our emotions and mental habits.

This said though, there are many people who leave with a new sense of direction or purpose.  Often, these individuals are in a place of "allowing" and are open to general newness in their lives.

There is typically only one difference.  A Reiki Master or a Reiki Master/Teacher is someone who can teach about and attune others to reiki.  That said, a Reiki Master may have additional reiki symbols that a practitioner doesn’t.  However, this should not limit an individual to only seeking out sessions with masters; there are a multitude of reiki practitioners who have opted not to go on to mastership because they have no desire to teach.  These practitioners, though not masters in the traditional sense, are often masters at channeling reiki and allowing the body to do what it needs to in order to heal.  

Unfortunately, you can at times find "Reiki Masters" out there who are quite ineffective in channeling reiki, yet find Reiki I & II Practitioners who are quite dynamic and powerful in what they do.  It is more important to be comfortable with your reiki practitioner, than the practitioner's "level". 

There are symbols used in reiki and other systems that represent different energies that are used to rebalance the body and its energy.  For example, Christians use the cross, Buddhists use a lotus, and even in the American fast food industry we have the “golden arches”, and from the 60’s we have the “peace” sign.  Just as all of these symbols have a particular energy attached to them, so do the symbols for reiki and other energetic systems. 

Symbols have power because generally, a large group of people over time have attached energy to it (think about the flag of your nation).  Reiki symbols have had a massive group of individuals attaching energy to them- energy regarding an individual's healing and highest potential.

Not only is aromatherapy beneficial for relaxation and stress reduction, but high grade essential oils can be used in healing.  Essential oils can at times be ingested, applied topically, or diffused.  Essential oils come from living things, and thus carry the plants' original life force or energetic vibration with them.

It should also be noted, plant extracts have been used for thousands of years in healing throughout the world, and are still used today in western medicine in creating new medicines.

This energetic therapy makes use of sound as a vibrational healer.  When an individual is ill, their body at its most minute level (pure energy) is “out of tune” with its whole or balanced state.  Using crystal bowls, toning and the such allows a body’s energy to retrain itself back to its appropriate vibrational frequency.

Interestingly enough, cells emit sound.  Western medicine is now finding that when a particular group of cell sounds are at an incorrect frequency, it denotes disease.  Researchers are now beginning to experiment with not only detecting disease through sound detection, but with attacking disease through sound emissions such as tuning forks and quartz crystal bowls.
