Being in a constant state of development and improvement is part of the human experience. Although you may be familiar with Reiki, you might not be familiar with how it can be used to raise your level of personal development.

 Practitioners of Western Reiki use 5-7 hand positions. These hand positions aim to affect the recipient's chakras or meridian points, areas everywhere on the recipient's body that contain theoretical sacred energy reserves.

To promote wellness and healing, the practitioner places his hands in hand positions near the body's energy centres. The practitioner may lightly massage the chakra or tap the meridian points to help release the ki or energy.

But How Does Reiki Help You Develop Yourself?

You might be wondering how Reiki could benefit you in your quest for a deeper understanding of yourself since it's not scientifically proven.

Here are some points to think about:

It will induce relaxation which gives you space to heal. Relaxation can be gained by practising Reiki. The person receiving Reiki usually lies down on a massage table and remains completely still and quiet. While the process is going on, you'll likely feel very relaxed, reducing stress and you may even drift off into a trance like sleep.

Its unique and will open your mind. Reiki is a therapy with a unique quality and it is hard to find another experience that is comparable to Reiki. To participate in Reiki will be a new and different experience for you-it will open your heart and expand your mind. You might even become interested in the healing arts after experiencing Reiki. Many people who have had reiki sessions have gone on to train as practitioners.

It creates powerful suggestions. In reiki treatment sessions, practitioners will recommend ways to balance your chakras and meridians. These suggestions can have a tremendous impact.  

While you'll be relaxed, you may be more open to taking in the suggestions and making the adjustments that will ensure you feel better. 

It boosts positivity and well-being. Taking part in Reiki can boost your well-being. Whilst Reiki hasn't been scientifically proven to have any effect, when you do anything to feel better, it can be helpful since you're addressing the issue and we all know that once we start to address an issue, just the fact that we have made the decision to work on it, helps us in most cases, to feel better. As an alternative to medication, Reiki may be an effective strategy.

It can change your perspective. You may gain a new perspective and benefit from self-improvement through the intriguing healing art of Reiki. When life gets tough, sometimes it's nice to try something new, different, and a bit unusual. The experience will relax you, boost your well-being, and add to your unique experience of life. Whenever we have one unique experience, we also may seek out others so it’s again opening the heart and mind.

If you are looking for better health and increased self-development, consider learning this unique healing art form.

Disclaimer Note: It’s important to note though, that just because something is natural does not mean zero risk. While many natural therapies are very low risk there still may be complications, contraindications and contra-actions.

The internet is full of information on how you can cure yourself with natural remedies, therapies, fitness equipment and more, but we recommend that you seek out a Qualified Natural Practitioner, Reiki or Energy medicine expert and always consult a Doctor before trying any new things. Never stop taking any prescribed medication without speaking to your health practitioner first.
