Our guest Tracey McFadden will be talking to us about what is Reiki and why did she choose it. Together we'll get a better understanding this modality as well as how it may be beneficial to your life.

 

In our current spiritual landscape, it is not unusual to come across the word Reiki. I've seen many courses, I've heard of the term attunement and I have met several practitioners. I even had a friend do a session on me. After all, that I must admit that I still do not really know what Reiki is.

 

Reiki is a Japanese modality healing art. It is a universal energy that each of us possess from the moment that we are born. Rei means universal and Ki means chi or life force. The practitioner directs his Ki energy towards the patient through their hands. In a treatment there is an intermingling of the energies of the Reiki master and the patient. Everyone in a session are receiving energy.

 

During a session the energy can fill a room or any space and is always exchanged in between the people. The intensity of the energy can be changed to meet the needs of the patient. When you are preparing for a session you are invited to sit and think as to what you want in your session. Also consider how much energy you want to receive as well as for how much time you want the treatment to last. There is a principle in Reiki that we cannot send energy to a person that is not willing. This is both an ethical guideline as well as a function of how the energy works.

 

Tracey began learning Reiki when she set out the intention to become an entrepreneur and contemplated her purpose. The word Reiki kept showing up so she decided to follow this path. When she had her attunement she realized that this magical experience that she felt could not be contained to herself. After experiencing such a profound shift, she had to offer this to others.

 

Tracey explains what exactly is an attunement and discusses some doubts that she had as she embarked on this journey. She also talks about Reiki symbols and how they play a role in this practice. There are 4 symbols for power, emotions, universal which impacts all time and space, and master. She gives you a tangible example of the changes in her life that occurred within the 21-day period after being attuned.

 

During the interview you will get guidelines on finding the right practitioner, how to know if the Reiki is working during the session and some observable effects in your life. No matter what you should feel something regardless of the nature of the session.

 

Tune in to the show to get a broader understanding of Reiki, how it works, why you might consider pursuing this discipline and the benefits it may have on your life.
