Sit in a comfortable position, either cross-legged on the floor or in a chair. Sit up tall with the spine straight, the shoulders relaxed and the chest open. Inhale the palms together and lightly press the knuckles of the thumbs into the sternum at the level of your heart (you should feel a little notch where the knuckles magically fit). Breathe slowly, smoothly and deeply into the belly and the chest.

Soften your gaze or lightly close the eyes. Let go of any thoughts or distractions and let the mind focus on feeling the breath move in and out of your body. Once the mind feels quiet and still, bring your focus to the light pressure of the thumbs pressing against your chest and feeling the beating of the heart. Keep this focus for one to five minutes. Next, gently release the hands and rub the palms together, making them very warm and energized. Place the right palm in the center of your chest and the left hand on top of the right. Close the eyes and feel the center of your chest warm and radiant, full of energy. See this energy as an emerald green light, radiating out from the center of your heart into the rest of your body.

Feel this energy flowing out into the arms and hands, and flowing back into the heart. Stay with this visualization for one to five minutes. After you feel completely soaked with heart chakra energy, gently release the palms and turn them outwards with the elbows bent, the shoulders relaxed and the chest open. Feel or visualize the green light love energy flowing out of your palms and into the world. You can direct it towards specific loved ones in your life

What are Chakras?

Click here to read



Simply put Chakras is the body’s life energy. All though there are several different charkas in the body, charkas are not physical at all.

Chakra is a Sanskrit word ( the ancient language of India and Hinduism ) meaning wheel or circle, which is how the Chakras are usually drawn. Try to picture a electric fan spinning around, and you can get the idea.

It is said, though not proven, that the Chakra in men spin in a clockwise direction and in woman it is counter- clockwise. This is been handed down through the ages…guess it was a man who made this assumption, it sure wouldn’t be that of a women…
No offence guys!


As I have said there are many different types of Chakras in the body, but Reiki practitioners deal with the main 7 Chakras.


First - Root or base Chakra
Second - Sacral or Sex Chakra
Third - Solar Plexus Chakra
Fourth - Heart Chakra
Fifth - Throat Chakra
Sixth - Brow or Third Eye Chakra
Seventh - Crown Chakra

Each Chakra is associated with a particular body part. And we will get into those in the following articles.

Chakras are important for they are toll gates to our physical and emotional bodies. They control our vital life energy. Our thoughts or physical conditions can be blocked or unblocked with the flow of energy.

When our energy is blocked we are more likely to become ill. When the energy is unblocked flowing freely then we are less likely to become ill.

Energy is throughout all our bodies. When the energy becomes stale, it presses on all our vital muscles, bones, organs, which can cause different types of ailments.

Reiki practitioners act as channelers through hands on treatments and the Chakras to replace the old energy for new energy. Relieving these areas and restoring the client to normal life flow.

Reiki and It's Meaning

Reiki is a word made up of two Japanese words

Rei- meaning ( universal, spiritual powers ) can be interpreted to mean supernatural knowledge or spiritual consciousness. This is considered “ the wisdom that comes from God or the Higher Self “. This is the God - Consciousness which is to be believed as all knowing.

KI - has many other names such as Chi, in Chinese, Prama in Sanskirt. All meaning “ Life - Force “. It is know as the vital life force or the universal life force. It is the non - physical energy force that animates all living things.

All living things have a life force which circulates through and around it. Once this life has expired the life force departs. When your life force is low, or there is restriction to it’s flow, your are then going to be more vulnerable to illness. When your life force is high and flows freely, you of course are less likely to become ill.

This Life Force plays a very important role in everything we do. It animates ( gives life ) to our bodies and is also the primary energy for our emotions, thoughts, and spiritual life.

For thousands of years the Chinese have studied Chi ( life force ) discovering there are many different kinds. The “ Yellow Emperor’s Classic of Internal Medicine” which is over 4,000 years old lists thirty - two different kinds of Chi or Ki.

Ki is also used for physical and mental training for martial artist . It is used in Pranayame ( A yoga breathing exercise ) and by Shamans of all cultures for divination, manifestation, psychic awareness, and healing.
trong>Ki is a non - physical energy and used by all healers. It is present around all of us and can be accumulated and guided through the body & mind.

So the true meaning for the word Reiki is “ the supernatural or spiritual energy life force.”

Click here to read.




Do you want to learn the technique of Reiki, but can’t afford the high cost for the courses? Well I know just how you are feeling. Until I found this amazing ebook

The history of Western and Eastern development of Reiki
How to Draw and use
Reiki Symbols
How to perform you own very beautiful, wonderful
self - attunement


Here is what others have said about Radical Reiki - Radical Life:

I must admit that when I was preparing myself for my own self initiation ceremony, I was a bit skeptical as I had received my first degree in 1996 and was amazed by the powerful hot feeling I had in my hands. I was not sure what to expect after my own ceremony thinking that maybe it would not be as powerful as someone else giving me the symbols.
Wrong!
The “dry, hot” feeling I get in my palms when I am using the energy was there straight after my ceremony which I guess was confirmation enough that I had done things correctly.
I am very grateful to you for making this available at an affordable price. I have wanted to advance to Master for years but the prices are horrendous, £250 plus for a ceremony. I have been putting this off for years because of the price, and missing out on all the wonders of Reiki advancement.
Huge thanks.
