Reiki Benefits
The benefits of Reiki are many fold. The most common of them being stress relief and relaxation.
"Before a Reiki session with Ellie, my mind is usually racing. Thought after thought,
after thought going through my head non-stop. During the Reiki session my mind
becomes still and relaxed. So relaxed in fact that I’ve fallen asleep! At the end of
the session I feel like a totally different person to the one who walked in an hour
before. Channelled through Ellie, the Reiki energy releases blocks in the energy
flowing in my body. I feel ‘lighter’ and less burdened down by life. I see myself in
a whole new light. I am stress free, optimistic and at peace with myself. Ellie is a
beautiful soul of joy, laughter and healing. I think everyone should treat
themselves to experiencing what a powerful channel Ellie is for the Reiki energy"
Edel, Meath
Our thoughts create our emotions, and emotions have a movement to them (e-motion).
Therefore, if throughout our lives we don't tend to these thoughts or if most of them are
negative, then a negative emotional state will ensue. We've all had days where we wake
up stressed and all around us stressful situations suddenly arise, by the end of the day we're
in a heap physically from carry around that stress literally on our shoulders! If these negative
e-motions are not released from the body then they can result in Physical dis-ease (i.e. a
body not at ease). And different emotions transpire in different dis-eases's. For example,
anger carried throughout the years can manifest in Liver malfunction, if the sweetness is
gone out of life, the pancreas can be affected and so diabetes can be a consequence of
this emotional state.
Or the case of an individual who gives themselves a hard time, doesn't support themselves
emotionally, mentally or physically, then knee problems can manifest, for what do the knees do
but support the body.
I would like to stress here that Reiki is a complementary therapy, always seek medical
advice from your doctor. (Reiki works very well with the medical model.)
Reiki and physical dis-eases
As you know, the body has an incredible ability to heal itself. When we get a cut, it heals
over a few days. Reiki accelerates this wonderful natural ability and thus helps to restore
balance and harmony within the body. Years of old e-motions can be release without having
to identify what they are or without having to feel them.
Suddenly we're able to go about our lives carrying less on our shoulders, having a clearer mind and an empowering perspective. We experience a new sense of who we are, what we want and the healthy boundaries that we want to set in place. As a practititioner, It is spine tingling to watch and a huge privilege to be a part of this process for my clients.
However this is not to say that Reiki is a miraculous cure. Dis-eases that have taken years
to manifest in the physical body will not be cured over night. A series of sessions as well as
some life style changes will also be required. We are all responsible for our own healing and Reiki will not do that totally for you, there may be some small changes that will need to be made in your life to support this healing. If for example, you live a stressful life then we would also look at how you can handle this better, what changes you can make, so that you don't end up stressed out again!
