What is Reiki?

When I was first diagnosed as a Type 2 Diabetic it was a very dark time. Reiki, I am a Usui Tibetan Reiki Master Teacher and Practitioner, helped me greatly.What is Reiki?Reiki is a combination of two Japanese words, ‘Rei’ meaning spirit, miraculous, or divine and ‘Ki’ meaning gas, vital energy, breath of life, consciousness. Ki can also refer to a person’s feelings, spirit, mood or frame of mind. There are a number of other translations of ‘Reiki’ into English.For ease of use, and because there is no generally agreed on replacement for the word ‘Reiki’ we will use it now.Reiki is your connection with the essential light and energy that is the Universe.Reiki energy is a complete energy, there is nothing missing and nothing that must be owned or achieved. It can be used anytime, anyplace for any condition. This vital flowing energy is the basis for the continuity of life, as we know it. There are three degrees and four levels of attunement to Reiki
