- Yes, it is beneficial for everyone.
- Reiki connects us with our higher self with our soul, with our
divine guidance – reminds us who we truly are and what we are here for.
- Reiki brings everything back in a flow.
- It never activates more than someone can deal with because the
person who receives Reiki is always in charge.
WHAT IS REIKI CAPABLE OF?
Reiki always does what the treated person wants it to do on a
subconscious level.
It never works against the free will. Therefore it only does what's
right for you. Under the Reiki influence people who are on medication
might notice that they have to cut back on it because it actually
improves the body's ability to absorb medication. Never do such a thing
without consulting your medical doctor.
Reiki activates one's self healing powers. It goes to the source of the
problem - it doesn't just cover up symptoms. I witnessed instant pain relief with people who were in pain for years.
l also saw nothing happen although people came in for several treatments.
There is no general rule for how Reiki works. One thing is for sure. It
really relaxes people who are under a lot of stress.

THOUGHTS ABOUT HEALING
To a distressed person who came to him for help the Master said, "Do you really
want a cure?"
"If I did not, would I bother to come to
you?"
"Oh yes. Most people do."
"What
for?"
"Not for a cure. That's painful. For relief."
To his
disciples the Master said, "People who want a cure, provided they can have it
without pain, are like those who favor progress, provided they can have it
without change."
Anthony de Mello, S.J.
