Energy Healing
For centuries, Oriental medical philosophy has held the belief that a mysterious and invisible energy exists throughout the universe. This energy sparks and sustains life, driving the activities of all living things.
Modern-day science and theoretical scientists know that our bodies and minds are fields of energy that vibrate and move at different rates and in different ways.
These energies interact with matter and are interconnected. When they take on the specific form of the human body, they define us as energetic systems. Positive life force energy sustains all life!
Our energy supports and maintains all the structures and functions of the body. It is the vital life force that nourishes cells, tissues and sub-systems of the body: the nervous system, neuromuscular system, and immune system. Sharing this positive life force energy is known as Reiki: an alternative healing method practiced to help us nourish our total being. It is our natural medicine.
Energy is defined as the ability to cause change or do work. There are many different forms of energy: mechanical energy, heat energy, electrical energy, light energy, etc. Each of these different forms of energy have the ability to cause some type of change or enhance. For example, when a ray of sunshine passes through a window it causes change by heating the interior of the house. Energy works inside of a spider by allowing the spider to move its legs; in a car, energy allows the engine to do the work of turning the car's wheels. Almost anytime something moves or changes energy is used. It is life force energy which allows our hearts to beat and lungs to expand involuntarily, nourishing our cells, organs and tissues, constantly creating our lives!
There are no dangers in the practice of Reiki. It is a purely safe and positive way for us to channel and share this healing energy to change or enhance our life situations and environments.
