Reiki (pronounced Ray-Key) in the West is most commonly understood as a holistic healing method for connecting universal energy with the body's innate powers of healing. Reiki, a natural healing art, is not a religion. Neither is it a new age practice, or a cult. Reiki means “Universal Life Energy” or Chetna Shakti, which is defined as the energy acting and residing in all created matter. Reiki is BEING this energy and healing.
Reiki is a healing technique that can be used on yourself and others. Reiki as a spiritual, hands-on healing practice that complements all faiths. Reiki understands that healing comes from within the individual. The healer is not the doer, but is a mere catalyst that is being used as a channel for the life-energy, for the healing to manifest.
Reiki can be used on adults, children, animals, plants and even inanimate objects. Giving or receiving Reiki is generally a peaceful and joyous experience.
