What is Reiki? Reiki is very old internal style of helping others Heal by helping them to reattain a balance and internal flow. Reiki is an Internal system in that it deals with Chi or energy and follows the same basic guidelines of all Chi Kung where balance is of the utmost importance. Reiki focuses almost entirely on the 7 chakras (more information on the chakras to come). The severn Chakras lay along the centerline of the body also known as the Governing Vessel. When functioning correctly each Chakra will spin freely allowing energy to flow up and down smoothly. The goal of Reiki is to correct imbalances and free blockages in the chakras so that the flow of energy is uninhibited. Reiki also deals with the Mind Body Connection as each Chakra has connection to the emotional health of the person. Each Chakra is affected (negatively or positively) by specific emotions and circumstances. For example if someone has shut themselves off from the world due to an emotional problem such as the ending of a relationship, then it is most likely that their 4th Chakra (Heart Chakra) has been affected or even completely shut down. Reiki can help heal the physical and emotional body. There is also a technique similar to Reiki called Emotional Release Therapy. Both Max and Joe have studied this and both practice Emotional Release Therapy. With this techique the client is told to actively think about and focus on a problem or emotional issue that they are having. Doing so brings about the physical manifestation of this issue, usually either a blockage or just a mass of energy with this specific intent. Through specific techniques the practition actively removes the physical manifestation, thus removing or at least lessing the emotional issue. This is usually done during a Reiki session if the practitioner feels it may be of benifit and always with permission. The issue does not need to be shared with the practitioner but can be. This technique done in conjunction with a Reiki session can be very profound as it removes the unwanted bad emotions and issues and then refills the body with positive energy usually leaving the client feeling refreshed and content.
