Reiki & Personal Growth

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.
