Reiki, a holistic practice, fosters a stress-free lifestyle, balanced energy and overall well-being through the art of self-applied touch. An alternative treatment method, Reiki has garnered attention for its holistic approach to improving various aspects of life. People have been practicing this gentle yet powerful energy healing method for centuries.
Reiki is a Japanese healing process that promotes spiritual healing treatment. Mikao Usui introduced it as a holistic approach to balancing the body and mind. Reiki comes from the Japanese words "Rei" (meaning universal) and "Ki" (meaning life force or energy). It serves as a self-care ritual, focusing on the alignment of the body's energy centres, known as chakras. These spinning wheels of energy, when balanced, are believed to play a vital role in maintaining the proper functioning of the mind, organs and overall health.
THERE ARE SEVEN MAIN CHAKRAS:
1. Root chakra (base of the spine, tailbone area)
2. Sacral chakra (lower abdomen, below the navel)
3. Solar Plexus chakra (upper abdomen, stomach area)
4. Heart chakra (centre of the chest)
5. Throat chakra (located in throat)
6. Third eye chakra (forehead, between the eyebrows)
7. Crown chakra (top of the head)
