      Western medicine focuses on taking medication, treat the symptoms and the disease and nearly everything has a prescription to try to cure it.

      However, prescription medications often have side effects that can be worse than the symptoms that they are supposed to be curing.

      More and more people are moving away from Western medicine and turning towards alternative medicines that take a whole body and holistic approach to healing, such as Reiki.

      What is Reiki

      Reiki is a Japanese word, it is a combination of Rei, which means cosmic or divine and KI, which means energy.

      Reiki is an alternative medicine that deals with the energy flow in the body, also called spiritual energy.

      The idea of an invisible universal energy force is a big part of Eastern Medicine. Reiki originated in Tibet and became popular in Japan in the early 1900s when it was developed into a system by Mikao Usui. Upon his death, Usui was succeeded by a series of Reiki masters, sixteen in all.

      Reiki is a hands-on healing method that uses energy to heal. Reiki is not just about healing yourself, but about others as well. Reiki focuses on today, the present; it is all about being in the here and now, and not dwelling on the past or worrying about the future. Only the present is controllable and that is what Reiki focuses on.

      The belief is that there is an omnipresent and universal energy and that practitioners can tap into this universal energy and transfer it through hands on healing, or palm healing, to help restore energy flow and allow for healing to happen.

      Reiki can be used to heal emotional, physical, and spiritual ailments and the best part about it is that anybody can learn this time-tested technique.

      Reiki is based upon the belief that we all carry energy within us, and we can use this energy to heal ourselves as well as others.

      Reiki is a spiritual type of healing because it promotes self-awareness and a connection with all things, because we are all connected through the universal energy of the world, and the energy that we carry in ourselves. We are, in essence, connected to all things through this universal energy.

      Because it involves the invisible energy, life force energy, which makes up this world and us, Reiki is not just a healing method, but also a guideline to be healthier, happier and to be more aware of yourself and your purpose, as well as connecting better to others, promoting goodwill and kindness.

      Reiki promotes unity, peace, and love; love for yourself, love for others and love for the world. Reiki helps achieve harmony to both those who practice it and those that receive it as treatment.

      Believing in the existence of universal energy, Reiki helps you see the beauty in the world as it promotes harmony and peace within yourself and in the world.

      It will help put you in touch with your feelings, senses and your own thoughts; helping you to find that center and the calm that you need. Reiki is a way to balance yourself mentally and emotionally as well as help, you feel connected to the world.

      By tapping into the energy that you carry within you, you can improve your life, improve your outlook of the world, and live with love and peace in your heart.

      You will use your own energy and the universal energy around you to help you feel good, be happy and to even help others as well, such as helping them heal by channeling energy into them, through palm healing.

      Reiki is a great way to reduce stress and promote calmness. Reiki is a relaxation method as well, and it can help overcome insomnia by creating an aura of peace.
