What is Reiki?

Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes Healing. It is administered by "laying on hands" and is based on the idea that an unseen "life force energy" flows through us and is what causes us to be alive. If one's "life force energy" is low, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy.

The word Reiki is made of two Japanese words - Rei which means "God's Wisdom or the Higher Power" and Ki which is "life force energy". So Reiki is actually "spiritually guided life force energy."

A treatment (sitting or lying down, fully clothed) feels like a wonderful glowing radiance that flows through and around you. Reiki treats the whole person including body, emotions, mind and spirit creating many beneficial effects that include relaxation and feelings of peace, security and wellbeing. Many have reported miraculous results.

Reiki is a simple, natural and safe method of spiritual Healing and self-improvement that everyone can use. It has been effective in helping virtually every known illness and malady and always creates a beneficial effect. It also works in conjunction with all other medical or therapeutic techniques to relieve side effects and promote recovery.

An amazingly simple technique to learn, the ability to use Reiki is not taught in the usual sense, but is transferred to the student during a Reiki class. This ability is passed on during an "attunement" given by a Reiki master and allows the student to tap into an unlimited supply of "life force energy" to improve one's health and enhance the quality of life.

Its use is not dependent on one's intellectual capacity or spiritual development and therefore is available to everyone. It has been successfully taught to thousands of people of all ages and backgrounds.

While Reiki is spiritual in nature, it is not a religion. It has no dogma, and there is nothing you must believe in order to learn and use Reiki. In fact, Reiki is not dependent on belief at all and will work whether you believe in it or not. Because Reiki comes from God, many people find that using

Reiki puts them more in touch with the experience of their religion rather than having only an intellectual concept of it.

WHAT IS HOLY FIRE Reiki?

This system of Healing was developed by Dr Mikao Usui in the early 20th century in a form that we can easily use, although Eastern medicine has for thousands of years worked with this energy, recognising its flow through all living things. It has been taught and used in Europe since the late 1900s. Holy Fire III is a modern addition by William Lee Rand to Reiki energy, allowing you to receive direct from Source/god/Holy Spirit/the highest heaven, rather than through the Practitioner; thus it is untainted, unlimited and divinely pure.  

I became a Reiki Practitioner in 2005, a Reiki Master and Teacher in 2016, and took a second Master course in Usui/Holy Fire in 2018, Holy Fire III in 2019, and a further upgrade in 2020 to facilitate more effective connections online/by phone.
