Giving
and receiving Reiki through the Usui System of Reiki Healing stimulates
a process that brings a clearer sense of self, deepening self love,
and a growing awareness of one's true self. Emotional pain is carried
by many people in their unconscious. As human beings, we satisfy
our physical needs and desires first. This is a survival mechanism.
As these physical needs are resolved, emotional well being emerges
as the next priority. Out of the unconscious arises the pain of
living in an insecure environment. As we become more aware of this
pain and, in time, the
causes of the pain, we are able to make different decisions
and remove ourselves from repetitive situations that threaten our
emotional life.
Self-treatment is the foundation practice of the
Usui System. In the simple act oftouching one's body with the
awareness of the Reiki energy flowing, the places of emotional
pain are touched, highlighted. For those students who have been
acquiring skill in self evaluation and awareness, the process
of personal growth is intensified. For those who are faced with
pain uncovered for the first time, the process of personal growth
is initiated. This initiation into self awareness is often accompanied
by memories, confusion, and fear.
The practice of the Usui System calls for continued self-treatment
as well as treatment from others.
Healing on this level, once in motion, has its own
timing. It cannot be rushed and there are no shortcuts. The practitioner
is supported by trusting the practice and seeking the support
of like-minded people.
