I am a Reiki practitioner informed by principles of oriental energy physiology.
Reiki is a Japanese healing technique that can be translated as spiritual or divine (Rei) energy (Ki). It is based on the idea that 'when our energy is low, we are more susceptible to stress, fatigue, and illness. But when our energy is balanced and flowing freely, we feel vibrant, joyful and at ease' (Australian Reiki Connection). Reiki is practiced by placing hands on, or just above, a client's body. It can also be practiced remotely.
The term 'Ki' is similar to the Chinese notion of Qi, which forms the basis of traditional oriental energy practices such as Qigong, Tai Chi, acupuncture and acupressure. I combine the technique of Reiki with knowledge of Qi energy pathways.
I work best through distance healing. This is where the practitioner cultivates Ki and connects with the recipient through meditative awareness. I have found distance healing to be just as effective as in-person healing as I am able to cultivate a deep meditative state and connection to Ki. I have discovered through my own practice that the two methods are not dissimilar. In fact, when providing in-person healing I have often found myself in deep meditative stillness. Regardless of the mode of practice, the connection between the practitioner and recipient (and indeed Ki) occurs at the level of the energy body, transcending the physical body.
