Benefits of Reiki

Physical

One of the primary benefits of Reiki is stress reduction. It is a full body relaxation technique that stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system, which has a primary function to restore and reset the body’s energy. This reduces inflammation and fatigue while providing pain relief for any acute or chronic illness. It is an opportunity to give the physical body a moment to tap into its own innate ability to heal.

Mental

While the physical body is in a relaxed state, the mental body becomes receptive to balancing the left and right hemispheres of the brain. The brain is an electrochemical organ, and when it is in a meditative state, it will emit theta brainwaves, which are attributed to improving cognitive performance and creating new neural pathways. This promotes better memory, heightened intellectual functioning, clearer focus, and a more powerful yet peaceful state of mind.

Emotional

As the mental body balances, the emotional body is able to understand its current state of being with a heightened sense of awareness. The intelligence of Reiki is able to transmute feelings of anger, depression, anxiety, shame, guilt, doubt, abandonment, and unworthiness, into a more loving and compassionate space. Tears of a past trauma may flow and be released as acceptance for one’s wholeness grows in the tenderness of forgiveness; creating a greater sense of ease within and connection to the world without.

Spiritual

Through receiving Reiki, a feeling of universal oneness may overcome an individual as they tune into their intuitive senses and perceive reality in a whole new light. The nature of reality may shift to integrate the unseen realms of energy as a palpable experience, and as a result, one may foster a more loving relationship with the world around them. This experience may teach an individual how divinely interconnected everything truly is and that at the center of all life, there is a profound inexhaustible source of unconditional love.
