Reiki facilitators channel higher-dimensional, spiritually-guided Life Force Energy. This is the unconditionally loving energy that has given birth to us all and that unites us all.  
 
Reiki offers the receiver an invitation to heal.   As the energy of the Reiki facilitator heightens during the healing session and they place their hands just over the receiver's body or lightly touching it, the receiver perceives the energy on a deep soul level and very naturally matches it through a process of harmonic resonance. This can feel like a soothing warmth in the body or a slight tingling, or a combination of the two as energy moves throughout the body, although it is not necessary to actually feel the energy for it to be effective.  

Nurturing the Self

We all know the Earth journey can be challenging, so it's important to remember to nurture and honor ourselves every step of the way. Patience is the key--we can learn to accept and be in compassionate understanding of every aspect of ourselves, especially the parts we don't prefer.  All dis-ease, whether it be physical, mental, emotional or spiritual, or any combination thereof are the very parts of ourselves that are calling out for love and transformation.   All energy seeks resolution and balance.  We can love ourselves into spiritual awakening and physical wellness in the same way that the Creator loved us into being.
