Who doesn’t know or hear the word “Reiki” now, in the early 2000s, maybe there were still many people who didn’t know the term Reiki, many still asked “what is reiki?”, there were even some who asked “can it be eaten?”. Of course this is not food, so it is impossible for Reiki to be eaten.

Along with the explosion of the internet of things, starting with the outbreak of Youtube, Facebook, and all kinds of social media, Reiki is also becoming more popular, many people are getting to know Reiki, because there are many teachers, methods and various comments on social media.

Alternative Healing

Regarding Health, actually we all already understand and understand the importance of Health for careers and quality of life. Who wants to have a lot of wealth and money, but their life is sick, in and out of hospitals, and lying in a sickbed? Or have the ambition to pursue a career, want a lot of money, but suddenly have to spend a lot of money because they have to pay exorbitant medical costs?

In the field of Health, we have two main paths, namely the western Health science path and the eastern/traditional Health science path. Western/modern health science is a health science that is based on a series of scientific studies, based on scientific evidence and facts, therefore it becomes a reference and benchmark for treatment. While eastern/traditional health science is usually born from the traditions of the community in which the treatment method emerged, and has been used for generations.

Outside of the two main paths of medical science, Reiki practice offers an alternative path, a natural healing method by utilizing the energy of the universe, which does not require much cost, even no cost at all, except for the cost of learning for those who want to become Reiki practitioners.

Then, how effective is healing with the Reiki method?

First of all, I want to explain what Reiki healing is. Because by understanding the essence of Reiki itself, the effectiveness of “Reiki healing” can be understood. Reiki itself consists of two words in Japanese, namely REI = “Spirit, soul/spirit” and KI “Energy, if these two words are combined, then we get a new word, namely Reiki which means soul energy or spirit energy. Energy in this context is prana, or qi, something that cannot be measured and seen by modern tools that exist today, but with a little practice, many people can feel the presence of qi or prana easily.

Prana is everywhere, even all objects and living things are manifestations of prana/qi. Only the frequency and strength of the vibrations are different. In the Reiki tradition, someone can get sick, or have bad luck in their life, because the person vibrates at a frequency that is not in harmony with the frequency and vibrations in the universe. Therefore, by returning the frequency and vibration of a person to their natural nature, which is in harmony with the vibrations of the universe, the person automatically becomes healthy and happy in life.

With the harmony of a person’s vibrations with the frequency of the universe through Reiki therapy, the cells and organs of their body will relax and begin the healing process. In addition to physical illnesses, Reiki healing is also very effective for mental problems, such as depression and stress. Because basically, mental problems are the same as diseases, caused by the disharmony of a person’s mental vibrations with the vibrations of the universe
