Life force energy is what we really are. When we can discriminate between what we are and what we are not, energy healing makes far more sense!
Mind vs Body
Our mind and body have completely different needs. Our body has physical needs, such as food, shelter, warmth, and water. Without these things, our body would perish. Our mind needs an identity, and to knoweverything, but has no physical needs. For example, we eat a plate of food and our body is satisfied, yet our mind tells us we need more food! Or we might have a house that protects us from the weather, but our mind tells us we need a bigger house! Our mind creates our identity (ego), which leads us to act in particular ways that may or may not be conducive to harmony in our overall being.
What are we, really?
We have a body, and we have a mind, but we are not either of these things. Just like we have hands and feet and hair, we would never say ‘I am a hand’, or ‘I am a foot’. Yet we often think we are our body, or our thoughts. We might have a thought like ‘I am fat’ or ‘I am such an idiot’. We then identify with ‘idiot’ or ‘fat’, which creates an emotional reaction as well as a physiological reaction in our body. These then create a shift in our energy.
We are energy
Neither of these things are actually true, however the moment we believe it is, it will be true for us. The challenge then, is to realise that you have a body, a mind, and a soul. But YOU are something else entirely. You are a force, an energy, that makes it possible for your body to grow, your heart to beat, and your body to be alive. You are a force that makes it possible for you to think and dream and remember. Without this force, your body would collapse, and your thoughts would dissolve into nothing. We call this force ‘life force energy’…another word for REIKI!
Reiki is life force energy
‘Reiki’ is Japanese, where ‘Rei’ means universal, and ‘ki’ means life energy. When we practice Reiki or energy healing, we are bringing back balance and harmony to your life and your energy, the very essence of who you are. You cannot heal and live your best life, if your energy is depleted, sluggish, stagnant, or toxic. In order to live your best life, we must allow our energy to flow easily and effortlessly. We must keep lifting our vibration high, and maintain harmony and congruence in our very being.
Our outer world reflects our inner world
You will know when you are out of balance. You’ll feel tired, moody, sluggish, unmotivated and ungrounded. You might be suffering from physical pain or issues, or have mental afflictions. You might be experiencing stagnation or frustrations in your life’s circumstances. Our outer world is always reflecting our inner world, so when you notice your external world is not fluid or flourishing, it’s a sign that your inner energy needs a boost!
