Since that time it has rapidly grown in popularity and has taken root in many countries around the world. This thesis is the result of 14 months of ethnographic fieldwork intended to develop a detailed understanding of what Reiki practice means to participants in Britain. I focus on three groups: Reiki practitioners, Reiki clients and medical professionals. First, I introduce important Reiki terms and concepts. Second, after a discussion of methods, I explore a specific method for researching spirituality and the role that interiority has in this approach. A disciplinary practice grounded in spirituality, Reiki is considered as a technology of the self. I apply a triadic analysis of doing— becoming—being in order to examine the ways in which practitioners processually embody the Reiki practice in their lives. In the following chapters I delve into the meaning of Reiki practice. Central to this is the link between spirituality and well-being. This link is investigated through discussions on how subjective spirituality derives meaning through practise and an ethical imperative for care in Reiki practice. Additionally, as it pertains to the health care market, I critically discuss Reiki practice as a commodity. In maintaining a detailed, anthropological focus, the complex nature and diversity of meaning underpinning Reiki practice in Britain begins to emerge. This comprises of the diverse journeys of this study’s participants, including myself, each aiming for an embodied well-being that transcends common understandings of spirituality and health and is often characterised in terms of a peaceful and harmonious life. 1 Dori Beeler | An Ethnographic Account of Reiki Practice in Britain | Title Page An Ethnographic Account of Reiki Practice in Britain Dori Beeler PhD Thesis Anthropology Durham University 2015 2 Dori Beeler | An Ethnographic Account of Reiki Practice in Britain |Table of Contents Table of Contents List of Illustrations 6 List of Abbreviations 7 Statement of Copyright 8 Foreword 9 Introduction Development of Reiki Practice 11 Structure of Thesis 14 Unexplored Themes 18 Chapter 1: Reiki Lexicon Chapter Introduction 20 Vignette – Reiki and reiki 20 Important Reiki Terms 21 Holism and Vitalism 22 Client or Patient?

However, in the analysis, I found a way to provide insight into one aspect of meaning for the Reiki practitioners involved in my study. The narrative, given by Reiki practitioners below, describes this meaning and is provided as an introduction to Reiki practice. You know, it came down and I don’t know what, like my master gave me a little piece of heaven. It is bubbles in champagne. It has a sense of humour; it makes me giggle sometimes. My first experience was a feeling of coming home, feeling like it was something I remembered, something that was so natural to my being that it was part of me, that it was right, that it was warm and safe, a warm cup of tea. It feels loving, blessing healing and consoling, spacious; it feels right – whatever that means, trustworthy. It feels like an arrow goes right to the spot, warm friendly loving, embracing, safe - really safe. Like a huge sigh, here I am again, coming home, brings me into the present, and it is my own present, instead of all over the place. One of the things I love about it is that it is apparently physical. That feeling you get, like sinking through layers when it begins to flow, congruence, like the wheels in the cogs of a watch they fall into the right places and things flow smoothly. Hands on, I want to feel you; I want to be in my body, if I am here I am present I am now, it brings all the bits together. Sometimes it feels cold it is desperately painful - but totally to be trusted. It feels hallowed and protected and consoling, physically it feels tingly, electric, and it has an electric feel to it, you feel the heat as well as emotional warmth. A kind of love energy, you can feel heat sensations, cold sensations, and flowing sensations, the feeling that I am not on my own in the Universe. The huge impact of the power never ceases to amaze me that I can make a gesture like that and feel the energy leaving my hands, radiating out, without thinking this is going to happen. You can be speaking to somebody and the energy comes out… the words are being drawn from me because that is what that person needs to hear.

  • Reiki Energy Medicine: Enhancing the Healing Process by Alice Moore, RN, BS, Reiki Master Hartford Hospital Dept.Of Integrative Medicine, Hartford, CT
    Reiki Energy Medicine: Enhancing the Healing Process by Alice Moore, RN, BS, Reiki Master Hartford Hospital Dept.of Integrative Medicine, Hartford, CT With increasing frequency and confidence, we speak of Energy Medicine (also known as “energy work”) as if it was a new form of therapy for our patients’ ailments. Not so. Thousands of years ago ancient cultures understood intuitively what scientific research and practitioners world-wide are confirming today about the flow (or lack of flow) of energy in the body and, how the use of energy therapies can enhance the healing process. As well known medical surveys report approximately 50% of the American public using some form of complementary or alternative therapy, “energy work” is among the ten most frequently used. Research has shown that these therapies (often called “mind-body-spirit techniques”) can help decrease anxiety, diminish pain, strengthen the immune system, and accelerate healing, whether by simply inducing the “relaxation response” (and reversing the “stress response” and subsequent impacts on the body, illness, and disease) or, by more complex mechanisms. When patients choose these options, there is often a greater sense of participation in healing and restoration of health and, patient satisfaction is often increased in the process. It was with this understanding that Women’s Health Services at Hartford Hospital (in collaboration with Alice Moore, RN, BS, Reiki Master and Volunteer Services) began to integrate Reiki healing touch (one of the most well known forms of “energy work” ) on the inpatient gynecological surgical unit in 1997. Patients have been very pleased to be offered an option that is so relaxing and helps decrease their anxiety as well as their discomfort.

  • Buddha Energies Package Descriptions
    BUDDHA ENERGIES PACKAGE DESCRIPTIONS Blue Lotus Energy Healing Blue Lotus Energy Healing is a new energy channele by Ansara Moldave of PEI, Canada . There are two levels of BLEH and one symbol for each level. History of the Blue Lotus: The blue lotus (Nymphaea caerulea) belongs to the Nymphaeaceae (Water-Lily) family. Many ancient cultures considered the blue lotus to be of esteemed status. In Asia and in Africa, the blue lotus symbolized immortality in recognition of the plant's ability to survive and re-sprout after long droughts, and the seed's ability to remain viable for many years (Edwards, 1998). InChina it was regarded as a religious symbol, and a symbol of feminine beauty. Similarly in India it was compared with the human female form, and in their legends they believe that Brahma, their creator of the universe, sprang from a lotus-like blossom (Edwards, 1998). The Japanese saw a representation of purity and the juxtaposition of good and evil, and the Buddhist's have a prayer mentioning the lotus, "Omi! Mani padme hum!" which is interpreted as, "Oh!, the jewel in the lotus flower!" (Edwards, 1998). The Greeks also admired the blue lotus. They associated the flowers with the mythical nymphs and beautiful maidens thought to inhabit the forests and mountains (Edwards, 1998). Buddha Palm Ki Buddha Palm Ki healing technique is an advanced energy system that will activate and open the light of your palms and mind. There are 5 attunements that you will receive 3 days apart. All you need to do is schedule the first one and you will receive one every 3 days until all 5 are sent out, so they will take a total of 15 days to receive.

ABSTRACT Reiki is one of the complementary and alternative medicine modalities which have been accepted and appreciated, globally. Many evidence based studies have validated its role in cancer. Reiki can play a major role in changing the patient’s outlook towards life and increasing the patient’s ability as well as willingness to comply with physician’s instructions and adhere to treatment protocols. The goal of Reiki treatments is to strengthen the flow of energy through these blocked or disturbed pathways, thus decreasing pain and enhancing the body’s natural ability to fight illnesses and heal itself. It combats the nausea caused from chemotherapy. One of the major criticism is lack of scientific foundation. There has been effort to collaborate conventional and complementary therapies to improve the quality of future research.

  • How to Set up and Use a Reiki Crystal Healing Grid
    HOW TO SET UP AND USE A REIKI CRYSTAL HEALING GRID Crystal grids are another excellent tool to use. I strongly suggest that you research further into this topic if you are intending to use this method. Crystal Connection and Windows of Light, by Randal Baer are excellent for further research. There are two crystal grid structures that I have found that work excellent with Reiki: The Star of David, and Double Star of David. Both are used in the same way. The first is a layout of six perimeter crystals, the second has twelve. I typically use single terminated clear quartz for the perimeter stones. Both layouts also have a crystal, or a series of crystals located, in the middle of the layout. The terminated ends from the perimeter crystals are pointed in towards the center stone. Crystal spheres work the best in the center of the grid, though I have also used a double terminated or quartz cluster for the center crystal. These are very tricky however, and I would not recommend using them unless you work with someone who can see their energy and set it up for you. A charging crystal is also used, though I have found that when I am away for extended periods, I can use the distant healing technique to charge and empower the whole grid. Inside the grid, your goals or pictures (with affirmations) are placed. I keep a picture of myself, with several affirmations on the back, under the center crystal and place the others around it, within the field that is produced by the perimeter stones.

  • What Is Reiki? the Benefits of Whole-Body Reiki
    What is Reiki? Reiki is a Japanese form of healing that is becoming increasingly popular worldwide. What makes Reiki unique is that it incorporates elements of just about every other alternative healing practices such as spiritual healing, auras, crystals, chakra balancing, meditation, aromatherapy, naturopathy, and homeopathy. Reiki involves the transfer of energy from practitioner to patient to enhance the body's natural ability to heal itself through the balancing of energy. Reiki utilizes specific techniques for restoring and balancing the natural life force energy within the body. It is a holistic, natural, hands-on energy healing system that touches on all levels: body, mind, and spirit. Reiki (pronounced ray-key) is a Japanese word representing universal life energy, the energy which is all around us. It is derived from rei, meaning "free passage" or "transcendental spirit" and ki, meaning "vital life force energy" or " universal life energy". The Benefits Of Whole-Body Reiki A Reinforcing Effect The whole body Reiki is used to treat the whole body to achieve relaxation. It facilitates the removal of blockages in energy flow and the dispersal of toxins. Long-term practice of whole-body Reiki will restore the general condition of the body. The energy channels are opened to allow the body to deal properly and naturally with both stress and the build-up of toxins. It will help you to cope with anxiety and depression. Reiki therapy is also useful when you are recovering from an illness. Reiki will provide the additional energy required to recover from the illness. It will also reinforce the effects of any other method of natural healing.
