If
you are interested in a kids group that meets about once a month
to get our children in tune with how to find and bring balance
into all thier lives, give me a call or email.
I think this could really lead to great things for the entire family.
A
typical reiki session lasts about an hour. The practitioner begins by
placing her hands in seven basic positions that cover your head,
shoulders, stomach, and back. The practitioner holds each position from
two to five minutes and then may target the specific areas of the body
where you are experiencing pain or discomfort. Reiki is usually done
while you lie a table face up with your practitioner starting behind
your head. During or after a reiki session, people have describe
experiencing varied sensations from tingling to a warming or glowing
feeling, as well as feelings of peace and well-being. Some may feel
nothing specific, just relaxation, while others may experience an
intense and cathartic emotional release. At the very least, expect to feel wonderfully relaxed, calm and refreshed as though you had just taken a bit of a nap
.
What ailments respond to reiki treatment?
People
have used reiki to help treat everything from the flu, to anxiety,
heart disease, depression, bi-polar conditions, colic in babies,
chronic stress related illness etc. to assisting with colds and feeling
run down. Research is now showing many positive benefits of energy work
through study groups.
Reiki is not meant to be used in lieu of traditional medical care; its
practioners promote it as a helpful alternative in assisting to
minimize the side effects of other treatments, reducing pain, and
speeding the healing process. Reiki can also be used preventively to
reduce stress and tension. Some people include regular reiki sessions
as part of their overall wellness regimen.
Do children respond well to reiki?
a
resounding YES ! I personally have used Reiki with my daughter in the
NICU when she was born prematurely. Reiki provided a wonderful way to
assist her with her pnuemonia, respiritory weakness and tachycardia.
Even with the great medical help she received,( and her nursing team
was beyond FABULOUS ) her Dr.'s were amazed at her rapid recovery and
substantial weight gain in the first 2 weeks of life. I constantly
heard from the nursing staff at Good Samaritan Childrens Hospital, how
surprised and happy they were at how quickly her health improved.
She
is 8 1/2 now and has been learning to use Reiki on a daily basis
herself. It helps us both maintain a happier and connected
relationship. She finds it an easy way to release frustrations and
anger when it occurs. Well, we both do. Much to my joy and ..... benefit!
Attunements
There
is no previous training or experience required. This technique can be
taught to anyone. The seminars involve an alignment to Reiki through a
Reiki attunement process where the student is aligned, This
alignment or attunement is permanent. During the seminar you will
recieve a hands-on session, information on the nature and the
history of Reiki.
When
a student of Reiki is attuned permanently at Reiki degree 1 they are
shown how to apply and use the energy for themselves and to share with
others. The Reiki energy is motivated to flow to where it’s required
the most. The life force goes to the basic issue of
disharmony and continues throughout the system to allow harmony, health
and balance to begin to flow easily.
I would be happy to share more information with anyone who is interested in learning more. feel free to email me at kelleylmt1@aol.com or kelley@tmtmassage.com

*************************************
What is reiki?
Reiki is a gentle and highly effective touch activated technique for, relaxation, inner-peace, natural health, and well-being. The word reiki comes from two Japanese words, " rei " meaning higher power and " ki " meaning life energy. Each of us has this ability to use this life force.
Although
healing touch has been used for thousands of years, today what is
considered reiki, originated in the 1880s when a Buddhist monk named
Mikao Usui went on a quest to rediscover the divine healing methods
used by Jesus Christ and Buddha.
Usui discovered the true formula of Reiki in a 25 hundred year old Sanskrit Sutra text in a monastery. Reiki
is a gentle, non invasive, safe and natural energy therapy. Reiki works
on all realms; physically, mentally, spiritually and supports the
body's own ability to heal itself. This system is highly effective for many disharmonies and dis-eases in our bodies, our minds, and our spirits or souls.
Reiki
is NOT a cure all and is to be utilized in conjunction with medical
treatments. Please inform your practitioner when your under the care of
your primary physician for a specific condition.
When
the practice of reiki was first introduced to Western cultures, it
underwent a few changes. Some innovations included the use of specific
hand positions, establishment of a "degree system" to certify the
practitioners, and acceptance of the idea that a person can be
compensated for performing reiki. Reiki has continued to evolve, and there are now many modified versions which all derive from the same source.
How does it work?
Reiki
is based on the assumption that unseen energy, ki , flows through all
living things along pathways in the body called "meridians." When
the flow of ki is blocked or disrupted , inbalances occur resulting in
physical and emotional health related issues. Unchecked, these issues
can lead to adverse health conditions. The client remains fully clothed while
sitting in a chair or lying down on a massage table. There is no
physical manipulation of the body in anyway. A reiki
practitioner works by gently putting her hands on the body in several
specific positions.
These
positions are along the pathways or meridians that carry the ki energy
to major organs. The flow of positive reiki energy from practitioner to
patient is helpful for correcting imbalances and restoring the healthy
dynamics of the person's life force.
I
am working on getting a group together that meets about
once a month to get our children in tune with how to find and
bring balance into all our lives. I think this could
really lead to great things for the entire family.
