Why Learn Reiki?

Learning Reiki has so many benefits! The practice of Reiki was designed to be simple and accessible for everyone. Anyone can learn Reiki! Reiki is universal life force energy, therefore learning Reiki is really learning how to manage your energy. Once you learn the basics of energy management, you become more self empowered. You also become more aware of how energy is affecting every single person, your pets, your house, and even situations you find yourself in.

Learning Reiki is empowering

The biggest benefit to learning Reiki is you become far more self empowered. During Reiki Level 1 ‘Shoden’, you’ll learn what energy is, how it works, and all the different aspects of your being. You’ll learn the basics of meditation and all about Reiki healing and self-Reiki. Learning self-Reiki enables you to clear and cleanse your energy, and raise your vibration. This is the single most important thing in managing your energy and mindset! If you’re sensitive to energy, you’ll find learning Reiki extremely self empowering when you can cleanse your energy field, and protect yourself from unwanted energies.

You can Reiki other people and animals

During Reiki Level 1, you’ll also learn how to Reiki other people, and even your pets! Since everything is made up of energy, you’ll learn how to cleanse and clear other people’s energy. Practicing Reiki not only raises the vibration of the other person or animal, but you also receive Reiki when you give a Reiki treatment! Practicing Reiki on others is also a beautiful way to give back and to help others. This is the Reiki way of life, to practice compassion, kindness and gratitude.

You can Reiki anything!

The practice of Reiki can be used on literally anything! You can practice Reiki on your plants, your food, and your medications and supplements. You can Reiki your family and friends, your pets, and yourself. Reiki works on your business, your bank account, your house and your car. You can literally Reiki anything, the sky is the limit! When we practice Reiki, we are clearing the energy of that person or thing. We are also raising it’s vibration. When giving someone Reiki, they often feel lighter, happier and more grounded in themselves. Pets often feel more calm, more peaceful and more harmonious. Your house will feel lighter and more spacious. 

Reiki calms your mind

Practicing Reiki meditations such as Gassho meditation, and practicing self-Reiki helps you to calm your mind. We often create far more stress than what is necessary, leading to anxiety, overwhelm, overthinking, overanalysing and worry. Reiki teaches us to clear and calm our mind. One of the 5 pillars of Reiki is the Reiki Principles. The first Reiki principle is ‘just for today, let go of worry’. If we practice this daily, it really does start to shift our mindset, and has a flow on effect of relaxing our nervous system.

Reiki reduces stress

When we are self empowered and can practice self-Reiki, it can help reduce our stress. Stress is a response to a stimulus, which can be either external or even internal in our own mind. By calming our mind and body, we can start to create a shift towards our parasympathetic nervous system, restoring balance and harmony once more. When our body is in a calmer state, we can think more clearly, make better decisions, and see things from a higher perspective.

Reiki amplifies your intuition

The more we practice Reiki, either on ourself or on other things or people, it starts to amplify and open up our intuition. When we are more connected to our inner knowing, we can start to live our life in alignment with our Higher Self. Rather than making decisions from what we think we ‘should’ do, we can start to make choices based on our intuitive knowing. Sometimes it can be hard to trust our intuition, however Reiki helps us gain trust in ourselves and the Universe. Reiki can also help us develop our psychic senses, which can also help guide us in our decisions and choices.

Why learn Reiki?

Not only does Reiki have numerous benefits, but it has literally changed my life. I love practicing Reiki, it brings me peace and joy every day. Even before I started my business Melbourne Reiki and Wellness, I was practicing self-Reiki and meditation regularly. These were valuable tools in my toolbelt! As a fiery Sagittarius, someone who is very driven and passionate and excitable, my tendency is to rush all the time. Reiki has helped me to not only calm down, but to accept myself for who I am. I now allow myself to be a fiery Sagittarius, AND at the same time, continue to work to relax and calm my nervous system.
