Reiki symbols for healing

Reiki is a spiritual practice developed in Japan. Unlike some other eastern spiritual practices, Reiki is a relatively young discipline, developed in 1922 by Japanese Buddhist Mikao Usui. Reiki is becoming increasingly popular among people searching for an alternative or complement to the mainstream medicine. This practice is focused on transferring healing energy in the form of life force, or ki, through the palms of the practitioner. At the initial level Reiki practitioner is able to heal himself and others. Next step is Second Degree mastery, where a Reiki practitioner becomes able to heal others distantly using Reiki symbols. The highest degree is a Master level at which a practitioner becomes able to teach and adjust others to Reiki.

Reiki symbols are of equal importance both for hands-on and absentia treatment. The symbols are partially based on a Japanese writing system, known as Kanji. The Reiki symbols are considered keys to opening one’s mind and unleashing the inner potential. During the session, a Reiki master uses a hand to draw an imaginary symbol over the subject’s head. Reiki sessions, and symbols, can cause patients to heal faster and with less pain. It is best used during a recovery after surgery, to improve mental attitude and reduce side effects of other treatment options.
