"Life Force Energy"
Reiki is a Japanese form of relaxation therapy and is thought of by many as an alternative healing practice. It is based on the idea that there is a life force energy flowing through all things. The word Reiki can be broken down into two components: ‘Rei’ meaning higher consciousness and ‘Ki’ meaning life force/energy. The Reiki healer is a "guide" or "channel" for this life force energy through the chakras.
Reiki healing works on many levels, including the physical, mental, emotional, spiritual and karmic. It is a simple, natural and safe method of healing. This method is intended to reduce stress, promote relaxation, and restore balance to the mind, body, and soul.
