The starting point for consciously shaping your own life is accepting a simple premise: we are vibrational beings. What shows up in your experience mirrors the frequency you give off. Reiki is described as helping the body return to homeostasis while lifting that vibration, so you draw in things that match what you want.
When you deliberately lift and hold a higher vibration, the Law of Attraction is said to respond quickly. That law holds that whatever you vibrationally match with gets pulled into your experience. Your vibration comes from the combination of your thoughts, emotions, words, and actions. Reiki is presented as a powerful resource for making shifts and raising that vibration.
Reiki is an old healing practice traced to Dr. Mikao Usui in the late 1800s. According to the account, he found he could channel this boundless energy and light through his hands and pass it to others, supporting healing on physical, mental, and emotional levels. He went on to heal others and teach them to share Reiki. Alongside physical and mental healing, Reiki is said to sharpen intuition and psychic abilities. One notable feature is that it can be shared with people, animals, plants, and even experiences. In many ways, Reiki is described as helping us attract and receive what we desire and stay aligned with our highest selves.
Below are ways Reiki is said to help you create what you truly want in life.
1. Reiki supports clarity and lets the heart speak
During a Reiki treatment, you can drop deep into a meditative state and connect with the heart's wisdom. All too often the mind and ego get in the way and we tune out what the heart is telling us. Reiki brings us into that meditative state, where our higher selves and guides can communicate with us.
These days we tend to get so absorbed in living as human doings that we forget to give ourselves permission to be human beings and simply be. Sometimes we need to enter full receiving mode to stay in balance and take in the Divine flow — and this is where Reiki can step in.
In a Reiki session, clarity can emerge about what you truly want and need in that moment — to show up each day as your best self and serve the highest good of all. Reiki is pure consciousness streaming through; it can do no harm. Our chakras need regular realignment because our environment and experiences affect them (try this quick mantra to help clear your chakras). Reiki's energy is said to align what is out of balance in your system and help you receive the answers and guidance you need when you feel stuck in some area of life.
2. Reiki is omnipresent
Reiki can be received at a distance (the sensations and experience are described as just as potent as in person), and it can also be sent toward past experiences and the future. If you are looking for a new home, for instance, you can work with a Reiki practitioner (or become attuned yourself) to send Reiki to that new home. You can trust that Reiki will begin its work and lead you to the home that suits you best.
Reiki can also support past healing and inner-child work that is needed to shift your vibrational field, lift your frequency, and rewire the patterns and operating system in your mind.
Reiki serves the Divine, always creating paths and answers that serve both your highest good and the collective's. So be ready to receive an answer or guidance that isn't exactly what you expected. You can trust that these messages will guide you toward something better than you could have imagined. Reiki has a beautiful, magical way of doing that.
3. Reiki helps you let go of what no longer serves you
Good vibes are real. Good thoughts and emotions carry higher frequencies (a.k.a. good vibes). As you work toward becoming the happier, healthier, best version of yourself, you encounter experiences where you can release the thoughts, emotions, relationships, and belief systems that don't serve your highest self.
Try picturing yourself as a container. A container only holds so much. So to make room in your personal container for what you do want and for all the amazing things the Universe has lined up for you, we have to keep clearing space by decluttering our inner worlds.
In a Reiki session, we find blockages and un-serving energies that are ready to be released, and the treatment can help ease low energy out of the body by flushing it out. We also find experiences and emotions rising to the surface that are ready to be cleared.
A quick note: feeling your feelings is powerful
Feel them. Even the bad ones. They will pass and leave you feeling lighter and brighter. It's science (… and spirituality).
To boil down the formula of manifestation: get clear on what your heart desires. Get into alignment and elevate your vibration. Trust that it is all coming together and follow the breadcrumbs.
Reiki is an amazing tool and skill set that is readily available to anyone who is ready to receive. A first Reiki session can be intimidating since it is so new and feels unknown. If you feel called to try it… here is your first breadcrumb. Follow it.
