Reiki: Touch of the Spirit

Reiki: Touch of the Spirit

Reiki is a healing art that hails back to Hinduism, Buddhism, and Shintoism, and was originally developed by Mikao Usui in Japan. This article presents the importance of its use for all people, regardless of their belief system, as a means of healing and involvement with other people. The author talks about her own experiences with Reiki, relieving pain for others, and helping her become more hands-on and less aloof. She also explains the basic Reiki tenets, briefly describes the seven major Chakras (energy centers in the body), and how Reiki attunements begin the process of healing self and others through a mysterious source of interconnectedness, which might be likened to the Oneness in Christ that begins with the ritual of baptism.
