Using Reiki to Heal Addictions

Can Reiki heal addictions?

Can Reiki heal addiction of eating, drinking alcohol, smoking, watching TV, chewing tobacco, taking drugs, etc? The answer is that Reiki can help speed up the recovery process when used in conjunction with other treatment methods.

There have been cases where Reiki practitioners have naturally given up a number of addictions as they progressed in Reiki. I have a student who was working in an Ad Agency as a copywriter. He got addicted to smoking, etc.

He came to learn Reiki from me when he had difficulties in his job due to stress. He was taking a weekly Reiki healing session and side by side learning the Reiki system.

By the time he completed Reiki second degree he on longer felt the need to depend on outside substances to feel relaxed and stress free.

There are many such students. These individuals were not intending to use Reiki to treat their addiction. That was not the focus at all. It was a positive side effect.




Reiki For Alcohol Addiction

Manoj was a young Engineer who wanted to learn Reiki for spiritual growth. He had some other purpose in mind but he did not disclose to me during the first degree course.

When he came for Reiki second degree course he shares that he was addicted to alcohol. He said he never missed his Reiki practice. As he continued his daily Reiki self treatment he felt less and less dependent on alcohol.

Usually he would spend his evenings with friends but during the 21 day cleansing period he spent his evenings in healing family members. He was touched by this experience.

After his Reiki level 2 he started coming to our Reiki center on weekends to heal others and help the new students. By the time he completed his Reiki level 3 he was a transformed man. He had introduced Reiki to many of his friends.

His wife was amazed by his healing. Since many years she was having back pain which started after she delivered her second baby. Her back pain had disappeared.

Some Reiki Masters feel instead of using Reiki for addiction treatment we should learn Reiki to clean, balance and energize the chakras and grow spiritually.

As a by product there will be many accomplishments for the Reiki practitioner including becoming free from addiction food, sex, sleep, nicotine, etc.

The reason Reiki heals addictions automatically is that when you practice Reiki daily, you de-stress your body, mind and spirit. You feel centered, in control and full of energy all day long. You are able to deal with the challenges and demands of life more effectively.

You start focusing on the important goals of your life. When you focus on health, on spiritual growth, on your job and responsibilities you naturally have less and less time for addictions.

Another way Reiki can help with addiction is in dealing with withdrawal symptoms. Just the gentle healing hands of Reiki can make headaches, pains, etc. disappear in minutes by bringing an energy balance in your body.

I have done Reiki distance healing to someone who undergoing treatment in a drug rehabilitation center. This individual shared with me that he got immense strength in dealing with this situation the moment he started taking Reiki.

Learning Reiki can go a long way in stopping the downward spiral of addiction. It will make the person mentally strong and increase his or her will power.

Daily recitation of the Reiki principles will make your self talk positive and make you more self aware. This self awareness helps you catch any negative thought that arises in your mind during the day and lets you release it and replace it with positive thoughts. This can speed up the recovery considerably.

One of the best way to help yourself is by helping others. Reiki can heal addictions faster when you give Reiki treatment to others.

To start with if you have not taken Reiki first Degree, you can do so and start giving Reiki to your loved ones, friends and extended family members. This will help you socialize more and get your focus on others.

Continue to take any medication that is prescribed by the physician. Stay in touch with your Reiki Master. Keep learning. Ask question. Keep him updated about your progress.

Attend all Reiki events. Take the Reiki second degree training. Practice Reiki every morning and evening. This will help you in multiple ways.

How to Use Reiki for Better Sleep

Using Reiki for Better Sleep

In my last post I talked about how Reiki can boost your immune system, today I am going to share with you how to use Reiki for better sleep at night. Be it a loss of sleep due to too much thinking or be it a medical condition of insomnia, Reiki can be of great help.

Sleeplessness can occur to people of all ages in times of stress. Its normal for people to experience reduced sleep in old age. But for young people, good sleep is a must. Otherwise it can cause lots of health problems.

If this remains untreated, people may suffer from health hazards like amnesia (loss of memory), cardiac problems, mental depressions, irritability, muscle ache, immune deficiency and they may face accidents while handling heavy machines or while driving a vehicle.

In order to get rid from this problem along with associated dangers its important to take medical help and practice Reiki for good sleep. Reiki can aid faster recovery to optimal health. Reiki goes hand in hand with the recommendations of the Doctor.

People who take sleeping pills indiscriminately or who consume narcotic drugs or beverages, may cause more harm to the body than lack of sleep. So instead of such unhealthy options, they can get the help of this holistic and spiritual treatment of Reiki.

It has been observed that people who have learnt Reiki or have undergone Reiki treatment for sleeplessness are able to enter a completely relaxed state of mind easily.

Most important Reiki point for better sleep

You have to give Reiki self treatment on the 3rd eye chakra to get rid of the problem of insomnia or sleeplessness. With regular practice of Reiki you can enter deep sleep in minutes.

I have many students who came to learn Reiki for better sleep and when they came for Reiki 2nd degree course they had overcome the problem of sleep.

Before I start the Reiki course I normally ask if the student or any family member has any problem. One of my student Dr Pereira had mentioned to me that his father had insomnia.

As an assignment I told him to give Reiki on 3rd eye chakra to his father just before going to sleep. He gave Reiki for approx 15 minutes. His father did not even remember when he fell asleep. He woke up feeling refreshed after many months.

It also has been reported many times by many of my students that even the first session of Reiki gives good results. Many insomniac people often sleep better as compared to the other days when Reiki is given to them.

Also, Reiki self treatment procedure on all the 7 chakra's has a relaxing impact on the body and the mind. It is one of the most important and rewarding thing to do for good sleep. Sleep has a refreshing effect on the body as well as on the mind.

Mudra Therapy for Better Sleep

As per Mudra Therapy Gyan Mudra is very useful in getting natural sleep. For this you have to bring together the tip of the index fingure and the thumb as shown in the image below.

You have to hold this hand mudra for minimum 10 to 15 for it to get activated. If you do this 15 minutes 3 times a day, you get good results. While on the bed do it till you get sleep.

Reiki practitioners will get faster and better results because they are familiar with energy work and the channel are open after Reiki attunement.

Is it OK to fall asleep during Reiki?

Reiki therapy harmonizes all the chakras or the energy centers of the body. Reiki self healing procedure can be followed any time of the day to get peace and relaxation you want. But particularly for this condition one should practice it before going to sleep to get the best result.

A deep sleep and relaxation can be experienced by the practitioner if he or she falls asleep while performing this procedure.

Reiki Hand Positions for Sleep

The practitioner should maintain each position at least for five minutes. He or she has to maintain four positions. These procedures should be followed one by one from position 1 to position 4.

• Note: For this procedure to work at optimum level you should have completed Reiki Level 1 but there is no harm to try it even now so you can see the difference when you do learn Reiki yourself.

Reiki Positions 1 for Sleep

In the first position the two palms should be kept on both the closed eyes and the palms should rest on the cheek bones of either sides of the face.

This position usually reduces the mental stress and purifies your thoughts. This position also accelerates the meditative state. This position should be maintained for five minutes.

Reiki Positions 2 for Sleep

Next, both the hands should be placed on chest on both sides. Fingers should touch lower borders of the collar bones or clavicles of either side.

This position normalizes the blood pressure, harmonizes the heart rate, and improves the functions of immune system and the lymphatic system in the body.

Reiki Positions 3 for Sleep

After this, one hand should be kept above the navel and another hand should be kept below the navel and the Reiki practitioner should just relax himself or herself maximally to facilitate the flow of Reiki energy throughout the body.

This procedure is helpful to restore the energy and the vital physiological functions of the body. It is helpful to treat the digestive organs including stomach and also heals the solar plexus. This position is usually helpful for the strong emotions like fear and depression.

Reiki Positions 4 for Sleep

Finally in the last position, both the hands should be kept on the lower abdomen in the shape of “V”. The finger tips should touch each other at pubic area (the meeting point of both the pubic bones).

This position is helpful to treat the coupling organs and excretory organs like bladder and urethra. It enhances the level of trust and self confidence, which in turn helps to acquire a easy sleep.

After completing all the steps in this self-treatment process, the Reiki practitioner can experiences a deep calmness within himself. The practitioner should be in this state of deep relaxation as long as he/she desires or fall asleep in this deeply satisfying state.
