The obvious benefits of Reiki is healing on all levels. For some, the healing may take a longer time than expected, but healing will occur. Often there are hindrances to healing and these need to be removed before healing takes place. Reiki will help with this as well. Reiki heals at its own pace and of its own accord, but also pays attention to the needs of the person being healed.
What does this really mean? Everything is energy and thus our thoughts and actions are made up of energy. Reiki helps us be able to release energy that no longer serves us, for example, lower vibrating negative energy and allow the higher positive vibrating energy to be in our thinking, feeling and being of our body.
