Q: What is Reiki useful for?
A: Reiki is a very versatile therapy. Apart from the obvious such as stress relief and relaxation, there are many more uses Reiki can be called upon for. Here is a brief list:
 |
Unwanted habits such as overeating, nail biting, drug or
alcohol addiction, smoking, and procrastination. |
 |
Mental or emotional distress such as depression, anger, grief. |
|
To help with important future events such as job interviews,
exams, surgery and dental work |
|
Enhancing affirmations |
|
Improving memory |
|
Improve the results from surgery and other medical treatments with negative side effects; i.e., by reducing or eliminating pain, reducing healing time, reducing stress and evoking feelings of hope and faith in the recovery process. |
|
Pain management for chronic conditions |
Q: Where will the treatment take place?
A: Unless you have booked a Distance Healing session, the session will take place at our healing studio in Berkeley Heights. The complete address is given below in the footer.
Q: What's a Distance Healing session?
A: Reiki treatments can be done remotely. You will have your treatment in the comfort of your chosen location.
At the appointed time, I will call you by phone. We will discuss
any particular problems that you wish to work on. Then, I will ask you to lie down in a comfortable position. The treatment will be most effective if you lie quietly with your mind and body at rest. It is also effective if you concentrate on healing. For instance, during the healing, you may repeat to yourself, "I am healed." After the treatment is over, I will call you to complete the session.
Q: What does it feel like to have a Reiki treatment?
A: Most people report that it is very relaxing and comforting. Some people feel the energy at work in the form of warmth or tingling. People report feeling their third eye expanding, or tension and negativity being lifted. For people working on emotional issues, there can be a release in the form of crying. For most people however, it is like taking a nice gentle nap.
Q: Should I be doing anything special while the treatment takes place?
A: No, just lie or sit back and enjoy this nice break from your busy schedule. If your treatment includes positive affirmations however, I may ask you to repeat those to yourself. This is because during a deeply relaxed meditative state your subconscious is very open to suggestion. This means positive change can begin to take effect more quickly.
Of course it does not matter if you fall asleep too. I would be honored that you would be so comfortable to do so.
Q: How long does a Reiki treatment last?
A: A treatment could be as short as 15 minutes but ideally you would have at least 40 minutes of Reiki. For your first session, or for chronic conditions, you may want to book a 90-minute session. A 90-minute session will include some counselling and 50-60 minutes of reiki.
Q: How often will I need Reiki?
A: It depends on the severity of your issue. Reiki is a very gentle energy so you can never receive too much; you could get Reiki daily if needed. Imagine that your body is like a slow running river where the toxins and repressed emotion have settled like sediment in your organs and cells. Imagine then that a first treatment of Reiki will dredge up the sediment, loosening it ready for a follow up session to clear it all away. For people with chronic conditions, or who are recovering from surgery or an injury, you may need treatments every other day until the problem is manageable and then have weekly, fortnightly or monthly treatments to keep your energy flowing and in balance.
Q: I don't feel any differently. Why isn't it working for me?
A: Reiki energy is 5th plane energy. It is smart energy and it goes where it is needed helping you in the best way possible for your highest good. Your illness or condition may be serving a higher purpose that you can not fathom from where you stand looking at yourself. Also, your condition may actually be serving your highest good without you being aware of it. Bob for instance gets migraines. He is also a workaholic and is in a relationship where he is expected to do a lot around the house. When Bob gets a migraine, they're so bad that he is incapacitated. All he can do is lie in a dark room until the episode is over. Though it doesn't seem like it to Bob, the migraine is actually serving his highest good. He is forced to take a break from work and he gets a break from domestic duties. His partner might even behave more compassionately when he has a migraine. Bob's body is giving him a message. Until Bob gets the message and makes the appropriate changes in his life, his body will keep sending the message, i.e., in the form of a migraine. If this is the case, a ThetaHealing session would be helpful here. Through belief work we could find out what prevents Bob from getting the message and making the necessary changes in his life to get him on the path to wellness (and happiness).
Q: Can I learn Reiki too?
A: I recommend everyone learn Reiki. It's a wonderful tool to have for yourself. You can use it to center yourself and to improve your meditation practice. You can use it to enrich food and drink, to cleanse rooms, to help your pets, your plants, your car, and your bank account. If you are comfortable you can also use it to help your family and friends.
If you are in the Central or Northern N.J. area of the United States,
I highly recommend my own Reiki Master teacher, Gina Barbosa. Otherwise, you can search for classes by state on the Reiki.org website.
