Are you are an aromatherapy fan who loves to buy candles, sachets, and essential oils? You may find it hard to resist rest and relaxing inducing formulas. It is time to expand your aromatherapy horizons. There is much more to aromatherapy than you may have imagined. There is a plethora of vibrant, life enhancing vital experiences awaiting your discovery. You can make aromatherapy a constant part of your day.

One way to expand the use of aromatherapy is to spray a few pages of your planner with your favorite essential oils. Be sure to dilute the oils so they will not ruin the paper in your planner. Every time you open your planner to note another challenging assignment, you will trigger the release of a surge of refreshing, vitalizing fragrance. It will give you inspiration and strengthen your resolve. You can also add essential oils to notepads and even memos.

Another way of empowering yourself with aromatherapy is by applying your signature fragrance frequently. Place a few drops on your wrists and behind your ears. Pulse points are ideal places to drop your fragrance because when your pulse quickens, your skin heats up releasing a fresh wave of the fragrance. You will also be emboldened by spritzing your hair with your signature fragrance, allowing it to envelop your presence.

You can incorporate aromatherapy into your laundry routine by adding lemon and chamomile to the final rinse. You can also make your own dryer sheets infusing them with your favorite scent. Use an old sock or scrap of cloth and place a few drops of oil on it before you toss it in the dryer. Lemon and chamomile will keep your laundry smelling fresh, while lavender and chamomile will make your pillows and bed linens fragrant with relaxing aroma.

Diffusers are an excellent way to disseminate fragrant oils, especially in the bathroom and bedroom. Diffusers come in a variety of styles and colors and can be used with the fragrance of your choice. There are even aromatherapy fountains available. Many are small enough to sit on your nightstand or desk allowing you to enjoy the fragrant scent all day long.

Another great way to incorporate aromatherapy into your daily life is to scrap the wet wipes and nappy gym towel. Make your own towellettes that will fit a variety of uses. Save the hydrosols when you extract or distill your own natural oils. Soak small terrycloth towels in hydrosols. They can be frozen for later use.

The ideas for implementing aromatherapy into your daily life are endless. The possibilities extend as far as your imagination and willingness to experiment with aromatherapy.

A Reiki Master Attunement separates Reiki from other energy healing modalities. Since the attunements are on the etheric level , there is no scientific explanation as to how and why they work, they just do.

To explain what a Reiki Master attunement is, we have to commonly agree that we are all connected to one Source ” God or whatever you feel comfortable with. As we were born into this world we had a close and intact connection to this source, the universe. Over the time of our education and adjustment to our social environment, our connection still broke, due to misconception of the mass consciousness ” society - about the truth and concept of life. Here comes in the concept of Reiki and attunements. Becoming attuned into Reiki energies is kind of like tuning into a radio frequency. Simply, the attunement to Reiki restores frequencies to Higher Energy realities, which brings in healing.

It also tells our subconscious minds that we are ready and willing to regain control of our lives, our health, and our spiritual well being, and we do it with our own two hands!

After the Reiki Master attunement is transmitted, the only thing to be done, in order to practice Reiki, is to set the intention to heal and the energy will immediately starts flowing.

Reiki Master Attunement - possibility 1 What is the best way to give a Distance Attunement?

Once you’ve received a Reiki attunement you have the key and authorization to attune others into the same level. There are many different ways to send an attunement and eventually you will find the way you are most comfortable with. With the Reiki Manual you will receive from your Reiki Master, you will find advice on how to attune your students in several steps. This includes the transfer of symbols, which represent different possibilities you will have with Reiki . Distant attunement simply means that your student doenst have to be there physically.

You will make a connection spiritually through your both Higher Self and exchange the Reiki energy at an arranged point of time.

If you intend to separate your attunements into levels, you have to set your intention to whichever level you want to transmit. I wouldn’t suggest breaking up your Reiki Master Attunement into any more than 3 levels, level 1, level 2, and the Master level. There are people who split up 5 levels! In my opinion, it is probably just to make more money. But only few Reiki Master Course includes all Levels together. I have had wonderful results when sending Complete Reiki Master Attunement no matter what level the person was at, from beginners to advanced. The only exception I do is, if people want to experience the Reiki energies, I give Reiki 1 separately. However, some people think it is easier to handle the energetic changes of the 3 levels when they are split up. I personally think that the Universe knows what each person can handle or not, so I leave it up to Spirit to decide what the person is ready for.

Reiki Master Attunement - possibility 2 How to proceed a Hands-on-Attunement?

Giving a hands-on attunement is the same procedure as giving a distance attunement, except the person should be physically there. Tell your client what you’ll intend to do and that he should close his eyes and put his hands in the prayer position. Next, you should stand behind him to open his aura and place the symbols into the crown chakra. After that you can move to the front to complete the procedure. Once the Reiki Master attunement is done let him know that he should sit for a while to ground himself. The person might imagine, that roots coming out from the feet anchoring into the ground. If your client might feel dizzy or even a little nauseous for some time afterwards, grounding is a great help, too. Explain him that what he is experiencing is a normal reaction to attunements. Before you start giving hands-on attunements, I would suggest that you practice on a doll to gain confidence. As with all skills, practice as much as you need to in order to get ready.

Reiki Master Attunement - possibility 3 How to proceed a Healing Attunement?

Transmitting a Healing attunement is a wonderful way to give an attunement to people who have no intention to learn or teach Reiki. They only want to be healed. Naturally you have to set a different intention to reflect the nature of the attunement. Your intention is to heal your clients. You might say, for example, “May this healing attunement work for (recipient’s) kidney pain and the energies I transmit will be integrated to his/her Perfect Health now. From day to day he/her feels better. So be it.”

A healing attunement is a part of the energy healing concept. The clients will be attuned to your intention ” to regain the overall health. It is also called Distant or Absent Healing.

Alternative healing options have gained favor with the general public in the past decade. This is largely due to a greater awareness and understanding about what alternative healing is and what it can do.

The world wide web has a lot to with this change. Before the internet, most people are subject to negative stereotypes and misconceptions about natural healing. But now that alternative healing practitioners have gained an accessible and free avenue to explain their craft, more and more people can see how rational and reasonable alternative healing treatments are.

What are the alternative healing options that you can consider? The popular ones include meditation, kabbalah, ayurveda, homeopathy and herbal medication.

Lets take a closer look at each one.

Meditation is an art of mental discipline. It involves willing yourself into a deeper state of awareness of either yourself or the things around you. As a means of alternative healing, meditation believes in the link between mind and body. For as long as the mind can visualize something to be true, the body can adjust and follow.

Kabbalah is an alternative healing method for general wellness although it is much used for mental and emotional concerns. Kabbalah, like meditation, also believes in the power of the mind over a disease. It is based on the religion of Judaism and sees the person as part of a greater unity with creation.

Ayurveda is an Indian art of healing that aims to restore balance in an individuals body. It employs complimentary and alternative medicine to western healing techniques. Practitioners of ayurveda recommend moderation in most of our bodys functions. Its this moderation that would restore our bodys innate balance.

Homeopathy is another school of alternative healing that is gaining popularity. It is based on the principle that like cures like, and employs techniques wherein one gradually introduces agitators in a body to help manage existing symptoms.

And of course there is a plethora of alternative healing medications around that are not affiliated with specific schools of thought or healing style. Distilled from the wisdom of different cultures, as well as scientific research, herbal healing has been touted as a great alternative healing method for people looking for more organic ways to get well.

Is it important for you to become a Reiki Master!

The actual 2012 Galactic Shift is an extremely crucial aspect of humanity, because we enter the cycle of the -so called - Golden Age, where humanity shifts from material behavior with all the visible distorted effects into a spiritual age, where aspects of love and joy rule.

Love and joy - what does it indicate?

It means that we share our feelings and love without anxiety and the protection mechanism of our own ‘Wounded Child’. This will be laid out in all aspects of life - including the healing sector.

Health will not anymore be controlled by pharmaceutical interest or the selfish medical community which wants to hold the grip on the power of humans.

Humanity has lost its power - now we strive for our own freedom.

Be responsible for YOUR life and guide and heal YOURSELF and Others.

Once you intend to become a Reiki Master, you will enjoy its beauty. Check out here what you will get from a Reiki Master Course:

- Reiki Level I Attunement

- Level 3 Reiki Attunement

- Reiki Master Attunement

Every attunement brings you into a new energy level of awareness. This is a result of an energetic shift of your chakras that brings in new understanding of pattern or behavior, which you was not able to perceive before.

Furthermore, you will be more aware of your clients aura and energy field, since your intuition and direct cognition has become more sensitive. Stay objective and passionate, but keep a healthy distance. Your energy field might get drained. Be aware!

Your choice to become a Reiki master also includes spiritual awareness and the will to proceed your spiritual journey. Everybody has to, but everybody has also the choice to extend it by his free will.

This is the reason I opened up wit the 2012 scenario, where in this point of evolution everybody has to make a choice to accept the truth. If you close your eyes, you probably will experience some sort of physical problems, which is only a signal. Your soul will awake you to the truth, which is love, joy and wholeness.

If your choice is the path of fear and material compensation, you will come to the point in your evolution where you will reflect and laugh about your acceptance of pain and hardship.

I recently spoke to a young man, a USA citizen, who was told to get his affairs in order” as he lay in the hospital with HIV/AIDS. Today, his HIV viral load is undetectable. He had been approached by a Reiki master while lying in the hospital bed. After receiving Reiki treatments, he learned Reiki himself, and is now helping some of the most disadvantaged, angry and impoverished people in the USA, which includes administering Reiki.

In my homestate of Washington State, Reiki is being embraced by Christian churches. Once disapproved by this establishment, a Washington State church declared they had received new information from God on this topic. They don’t call it Reiki, they call it the Holy Spirit, which, through loving intention, they place their hands on those in need, and universal life force, of which some of us simply call, “love,” passes into the recipients,  some of which are young men getting themselves into trouble with the law and society in general. They report they have seen it result in everything from miraculous physical cures to the reversal of harsh legal sentences.

A First Nations (aka Indian, Native American) woman who became attuned to Reiki reported that it enhanced all of her other native healing modalities. Reiki did not take away her traditions, but rather, enhanced them.

How is this happening? How can you benefit? As the world evolves and rises above its “us vs. them” separation, Reiki no longer seems to be a strange, exotic anti-Christ method developed by “them” (the Japanese). Rather, its Japanese name of Reiki stuck with it, but it is of the universe, of God, regardless of which one of His/Her people rediscovered it and named it. And, as more and more Reiki is given on earth, the more the earth rises to that higher ability to move from separation and ill-health to Oneness and pure health.

You can both receive Reiki treatments to help yourself rise into this higher plain, but you can also become attuned to give Reiki to yourself and others, even to the earth, plants and animals. Reiki is one of many beautiful healing modalities that works with and enhances all the others, from herbal remedies to relaxation response therapies to prayer. In Washington State, for example, there are many Reiki “circles” where practitioners give this Loving Energy to each other, as well as teachers who will attune and train you. Although considered by many to be “plan B,” there are also methods of self-attunement and distance attunement that can more easily fit into some people’s budget and schedule.

Leading up to the Wedding day, if you can arrange for your guests, especially people close to the Bride and Groom, a Reiki treatment a few weeks before the big day. You will be amazed how stress free everyone is. To cope with the pressure the big day produces, you couldn’t do better, Reiki cannot guarantee the weather, but the reduction in stress will help you cope whatever that turns out to throw at you:-)

Stress has been a rising cause of sickness from work replacing bad backs as the main cause of absence. In total, more than 5 million working days a year are now list in the UK alone to complaints of stress.

I would say anything that reduces stress levels, I would give it a fair trial. I know many Brides that have had a Reiki session apx two weeks before the wedding, and then had a Reiki practitioner come to the house on the morning of the wedding day, working on the bride, the bridesmaids and especially the Mother of the bride. I know it makes a great deal of difference to how the big day has gone. The stress is relieved to a great extent to every-one’s relief.

I also know some businesses have a Reiki Therapist visit their company and have them give a short Reiki treatment as the employers sit at their desks - stress levels go down and productivity increases.

Doctors are fully aware of the presence of stress - they are particularly vulnerable to it themselves, and a growing number of GP practices have stress management counsellors on-board for patient referral. Hopefully as they become increasingly aware that emotional and psychological conditions respond remarkably well to complementary therapy, including Reiki, they are more likely to suggest an alternative, natural rout for some treatments.

Stress is basically how you perceive the demands and pressures that life presents, and how you are able to draw on your inner resources to cope. What you find unable to cope with today - you will take everything in your stride with Reiki.

There is no need for you to believe in Reiki - or, for that matter, in any other holistic healing system: It will still work! The five Precepts of Dr Mikao Usui can have a profound effect on lives, though Reiki is NOT a religion.

1. Just for today, do not worry.
2. Just for today, do not anger.
3. Honour your parents, teachers and elders.
4. Earn your living honestly.
5. Show gratitude to every living thing.

The point that the Reiki principles make, is the life force relies on the views and judgments that we practice and make known. In other words, if we think in a positive manner and try to feel only good feelings, such as caring or closeness, and dedicate our life to discipline and perseverance (as best we can) the life energy is profuse and the stress diminishes to that which we can cope with.

Cure almost any stressful conditions of the Mind Body or Spirit.

At the heart of Reiki are 5 Principles that any serious practitioner will meditate on frequently and practice daily.  These Principles are not always easy to keep, but serve as an excellent guideline for conducting one’s life.  The 5 principles are as follows:

Just for today,

No Anger

No Worry

Be Grateful

Work Hard

Be Kind
This version is the most boiled down of all, and curiously, the most comprehensive.  Let’s look at each one.

No Anger - I will not anger, and I will endeavor not to cause anger.  I believe this refers to the non-productive type of anger that some of us feel occasionally, and some of us feel chronically.  It’s irritable anger, petty anger; anger that we think is somehow going to change a situation.  This does not refer to the anger you might feel over a crime or other serious injustice or harm.  I believe that the concept of No Anger also means endeavoring not to cause anger in others.  It is possible to be mindful of how our words and actions affect others, while still being true to ourselves and staying connected to our authentic selves.

No Worry - I won’t worry, and I will do my best not to cause others worry.  Worry produces nothing positive, but can create a lot of negatives.  This doesn’t excuse us from having a Plan A and a Plan B, or making correct choices so as to not bring about situations that might cause us to worry.  But worry in and of itself is a useless waste of precious energy.  Causing others undue worry is the same as causing others anger.  We should avoid doing it when possible.

Be Grateful - I will be grateful for the positives.  On a really bad day, it may be hard to find the positives, but seek them out nevertheless.  And do something nice for someone else - give them something to be grateful for, too.

Work Hard - I will put my whole self into what I am doing.  Whether it’s my spiritual practice, my job, washing dishes, visiting a loved one in the hospital, reading to a child, exercising or walking the dog.  These activities are the things that our daily life is made of.  Even drudgery like doing the laundry (I actually like doing laundry, but most people think I’m weird) is still an honorable task.  When you’re fortunate enough to be doing things you feel good about, work hard at those things too - even if it’s napping on the beach!

Be Kind - I will be kind to all creatures.  Not just humans.  Not just the humans I like.  We are connected to all creatures and it’s our honor and duty to treat each other with respect and kindness.  It feels good.  I know that sometimes it’s hard to be kind to someone if you have negative feelings towards them.  Just put that effort out there.  It may make a difference and even if it doesn’t, you tried.

Seems so simple.  And these 5 Principles of Reiki have been repeated in so many different ways and been set forth in so many other places as well.  These concepts aren’t new.  But if you really try to internalize them and practice them, they will make a difference in your life.

The Question Asked ‘Is Natural Healing Enough?’

Many medical practitioners and members of the professional medical community find it alarming that individuals who receive any form of natural treatment (and other alternative medicinal therapies) might abandon conventional procedures. Since this issue is one of concern and continually raised, a number of reiki practitioners have begun advising individuals that receive their treatment to also look into professional or conventional medical assistance if they so desire.

You may also have heard some critics unfavorably describe it as a way of communicating with “Satan” or another form of delivering occult practices. To be fair, this issue should be viewed in a subjective manner, since it is not established or directly associated with any kind of religion.

For or Against Alternative Therapies

Whether you agree or disagree with any alternative therapy, the choice is yours. What works for one person does not always work for another. Every person is different, even though every human body is composed of antibodies that actually help in self-healing and immunity. Reiki follows the principles of the mind and is attributed to what is called the placebo effect. It’s not an unhealthy practice for the patient. It is pure energy and when the desire to be healed is sincere the benefits and results are worth any criticism made.

There are many different types of Reiki out there - some having very little to do with anything Reiki at all. Some forms of "reiki' are nothing more than glamorized marketing ploys to get some sucker to buy into the latest fad. Please be aware of this.

Most of the books and web sites out there are grossly misleading - all feeding off of the same misinformation, twisting and turning it to appear as something new and improved.

If you'd like, I would offer to you some advice, if you'd care to contact me. I can point you in the right direction for books and things to get you building a good solid foundation on Reiki (and tell you which ones to avoid).
For example = any book written by Frank Petter is a good source. Any book written by Diane Stien or Maureen Kelly is NOT.

I can also help you look for a teacher and an accurate style of Reiki.

Contact me offlist and I will give you my web site address that contains much information on Reiki. We can talk further about how to screen teachers, interview them, etc.. .

Looking forward to hearing from you.

I would like to hear only from reiki practitioners and those who have had at least one reiki session.

Also, from those of you who have had reiki done on you, did you feel it was effective and in what ways?

Thank you for all who answer helpfully!
Looking for personal experience, either as practitioner or patient.

Namaste-

I've been a Usui Reiki Master since 2001, and became a Reiki practitioner after my own experience with Reiki healing sessions.

I was seeking alternative treatments for a chronic, inherited illness. I had tried several modalities, and was seeing an aromatherapist regularly. I was seeing some improvement, but nothing amazingly dramatic. However I thoroughly enjoyed the treatments, and continued to have them for many months.

There was also a Reiki practitioner that worked at that healing centre. One day she had a client that had cancelled, and knowing that I was curious about energy healing she offered to give me a treatment for free during that opening. I accepted, and it changed my life.

The experience itself was amazingly relaxing. I had never felt that deep of a state of peace and inner quiet before. There were waves of subtle sensations all over my body, and I was awash in feelings of health and light. What was MOST impressive to me was that that state of centeredness and balance stayed with me for nearly a full week!! I began seeing her for Reiki treatments regularly, and the improvements continued.

Eventually, I took a class to become a Reiki practitioner, so that I could give myself treatments in between seeing the practitioner, and then maybe I could offer it to friends and family. Even though everyone had told me how simple it was, I was sure that it would be extremely difficult and that I would not be able to be proficient. I was very suprised at how simple it actually was!

Over the next few months I was presented with more and more opportunities to receive treatments from other practitioners, which helped me develop my own skills by learning from their techniques. I was also giving more and more treatments to others. I was also developing intuitively in a very rapid manner, and my spirituality was deepening with the support of the Reiki energy, and the more visionary experiences that I was having as a result of the treatments. My health was steadily improving, too, which was icing on the cake. More and more synchronicity was occuring that was leading me to information and situations that opened more door towards greater health, and spiritual development.

Very soon the Reiki practitioner at the healing centre I was attending moved away, and I was offered the position. I have continued to practice and develop as a healer ever since. In 2001 I completed my Usui Masters training, and began teachings others as well. I learn so much from my students, that it's every bit as beneficial for me as for them.

Here's some answers from the FAQ I use with my Usui Reiki certification classes:

What is Reiki?

Reiki is a hands-on healing technique that originated in Japan. Reiki is a Japanese word that roughly translates "universal life-force energy". What Reiki refers to is a codified system of non-invasive, hands-on healing method that utilizes the life-force energy that surrounds every living thing in the universe (the Chinese "chi", Japanese "ki", Hindu "prana", the Tao, etc) to aid in the release of blockages in the energetic nervous system in the body, speeding recovery from dis-ease. The technique works on the same principle as acupuncture, shiatsu, reflexology and other Eastern methods that are being recognized and covered by many major insurance companies world-wide. Reiki has no contraindications and does not require the client to disrobe to receive a treatment.

Reiki has been clinically proven to reduce stress, aid in pain management, speed recovery from illness and surgery, and mentally support those coping with traumatic life changes and issues. In Europe, hospitals in many countries are staffing Reiki Masters regularly, as they have found them to be indispensable. Surgeons request their presence during high-risk operations, as patients who are supported by Reiki healing during surgery require less anesthetic to keep them under, less pain medicine afterwards, and a faster discharge with fewer complications overall! Following suit, some North American hospitals have begun running Reiki clinics to scientifically document the effects. Insurance companies in Europe and the United States are also beginning to provide limited coverage for Reiki treatments. The positive effects of Reiki are becoming common knowledge in the mainstream, and I couldn't be more pleased!

What happens during a Reiki treatment?

During a Reiki treatment, the client lays on either a massage table, or a yoga mat while the Reiki Master performs the treatment. In general a recipient can expect to be interviewed by their practitioner before the treatment in order to determine what areas of dis-ease need to be concentrated on. This initial consultation may involve dowsing the aura with a pendulum &/or the practitioner using her hands to assess the energy field. Any blockages or excess "psychic dust" will be explained to the client, and cleared away during the treatment.

serious question. if sceptics want to make themselves look ignorant or stupid, they will have to reply to my previous questions.

thanks in advance!

Consider the following…

http://www.christiananswersforthenewage.org/Articles_Reiki1.html

Depending upon the teacher, they show you techniques as well as hand positions that are generally used for performing a Reiki session. This can vary from teacher to teacher.

An attunement is done to open one up to Reiki and to 'set' it into a person so that the flow will always be available to the person getting the attunement.

It is an intent based energy healing and enlightenment system.

You do not have to take any vows. It is not associated with any specific religion.

It really is simple. What is normally the problem is the cost that usually comes with Reiki attunements. This varies greatly and some charge quite a lot of money per attunement/level. There are a lot of Reiki Masters out there so you do have the ability to shop around for one that is right for you.

There are a variety of Reiki forms out now.

The most common seems to be Usui Reiki, which has 3 levels (some divide level 3 into two parts for those who are becoming Reiki Master/Teachers). I think this is always a good place to start as it is just working with the Reiki energy, not adding in any other healing energies.

If you're not experiencing any discomfort or pain associated with this, I wouldn't worry too much. Your best bet is to check with your Reiki professional and ask them what their impressions are while they are sending you the energy. Many practitioners are sensitive to what their client is feeling and may be able to shed more light on the matter than anybody.

Obviously a normal reaction for you, but not for everyone. Reiki is distributing energy throughout the body and the sex chakra is the area your referring to. That's the major bottom chakra, so a lot of energy will be distributed there in a session. Maybe your healer is a bit unexperienced or just ask them to distribute the energy differently, so this doesnt happen. Regardless its a very effective healing strategy, so go with the flow.

Best of health to you

Cheers

Also remember to surround yourself with white light when you are going into a place with negative energy. I often forgot to do that myself and wonder why I am so drained afterwards or feelign bad. I need to give myself reminders too.

Good luck!

Thanks

Love Light and Peace
Hello

It means that it is the heart chakra that the healing energy travels through.

Sadhara
Healer.

The way in which Reiki and the placebo effect are different is that you don't have to believe in it to either give it or receive it. It will work anyway and also even if you don't know you're receiving it. And it doesn't have to be given to a living thing. I've fixed inanimate objects like my washing machine with it. It's supposed to be really good for fixing computers.

If you want to know if it actually works, I'll send you some long distance reiki. Then you can decide from personal experience.
