Pranic Healing

Pranic Healing is a treatment method invented and developed in recent years on the hands of Master Choa Kok Sui. Although it is primarily based on Chinese medicine, needles are not used at all; it is performed by re-routing the energy from the healer's body to the patient's. This way the latter will receive enough energy and help in order to heal and balance.

Pranic Healing is a full phase of Reiki treatment, used in special conditions after finishing a Reiki session (in which the healer spends 2-3 minutes on 12-14 locations on the body). If the healer senses that certain points are need of extra help, he will resort to Pranic Healing; he will send concentrated energy on one point in order to balance it.

Also, in the human body there are 52 points (as in Chinese Acupuncture), and each is responsible for a specific function in the body. Some are responsible for blood flow, some for head ache, vision, hearing, eating, urination, stomach, kidney, liver, lungs, nerves, spine, memory, etc. So using the thumb or the index and middle finger (and without touching), the healer charges and penetrates a weak point so he restores the related organ's function.

The charging process should take about 21-23 seconds only, and multiple points can be charged during one session. It has the same benefits as acupuncture. The patient will feel much more comfortable after this treatment.

This treatment method is very effective and successful.

Channels / Chakras and Energy Centers - Part 2

Chakras and its functions:

The Root/Base Chakra: Red/Brown/Black. It is located between the genital organ and the lower back. Its function is to communicate between the human body and the energy derived from earth, so we can also discharge negative energy from our bodies. It is also known as the center for the Kundalini energy.

The Sacral Chakra: Orange. Responsible for reproductive functions, developing, creativity, vitality and helping.

The Solar Plexus Chakra: Yellow. Responsible for emotions, anger, hatred, fear and inner feelings. Affects primarily the digestion system, spleen and pancreas.

The Heart Chakra: Green. Located in the heart; it is responsible for love, passion and compassion. It affects the blood flow and helps us see good and evil.

The Throat Chakra: Blue. Located in the throat. Responsible for communicating with other people, and it's a passage between physicality and spirituality. It is an important channel where air, food and blood enters all the body. Affects breathing (asthma) and various skin diseases.

The Third Eye Chakra: Purple, deep blue. Located in the front of the body between eyebrows and hair. It has functions of spiritual vision, sixth sense and non-tangible vision of people and places. This Chakra has direct effect on epilepsy, heart disease and psychological illnesses.

The Crown Chakra: White, golden, purple. Located at the top of the head and is responsible for personal spiritual openness. It has a big effect on the body, and through it we draw energy. It directly affects the senses in the human body, the spirituality, telepathy and receiving energy from the universe.

Some recommendations:

In order to help ourselves keep our Chakras open, we should review a specialist of Reiki at least once a month.

Use the colors; wearing a specific cloth's colors will reflect on the body of the wearer and help balance the body and soul.

Recommended colors by days:

Sunday – Red / Brown (Root Chakra)

Monday – Orange (Sacral Chakra)

Tuesday – Yellow (Solar Plexus Chakra)

Wednesday – Green / Pink (Heart Chakra)

Thursday – Blue (Throat Chakra)

Friday – Purple (Third Eye Chakra)

Saturday – White (Crown Chakra)

In order to fall asleep faster: while in bed, put your left hand over the Solar Plexus Chakra (above the belly button) and your right hand on the belly button. This should help you relax fasted and fall asleep.

Channels / Chakras and Energy Centers - Part 1

The human body is affected by 4 basic elements: earth, water, air and fire. These elements affect the human being directly, consciously or unconsciously. We sometimes feel tired or exhausted although we did not do anything; we do not want to get out of bed or we feel sluggish for several days. These psychological states are related to body energy.

There are seven channels or windows in the human body; it is the energy centers which are professionally called chakras. Chakra is a word of Indian Sanskrit origin and it means "wheel" or "turning." Through the chakras, we receive energy and then it is passed to all body organs; the energy is responsible for the functional performance of the body, soul and psyche. In many cases, a chakra is closed partially or fully for a psychological, spiritual, emotional or physiological reasons; this affects the performance of that specific chakra which then affects an organ. A chakra works in spiral, circular and vibrational way, much like a whirlpools: consistent and harmonious; if its work is interrupted, so the work of the body.

At first, Reiki therapist examines and diagnoses the patient through "communication," which is to enter the body and communicate with it using energy only (no touching). This is done by passing the hand over the body; this way we will know which channels are shut and which are open. Additional way to do this is by using a pendulum. Afterwards, the therapist sends energy using a special symbol (specific to each chakra) in order to open them all; the negative energies are replaced with positive energies. The goal is to return them to their normal function (circling and vibrating), so the body organs will continue their correct work.

Throughout the treatment, the patient is lying on comfortable bed, surrounded by candles, sweet smells and calming music.

The Basics of Reiki

I have mentioned before that Reiki has 5 basics. Those basics are not by chance, they hold a purpose and a meaning. If we focus on its content, meaning and value, we will understand life, be stable and happy.

Only today don’t be angry: Anger on its shapes, on our selves or others, creates difficult obstacles in the energy channels within the person. Reiki specialists and even psychologists see anger as one of the causes for health problems (physical or psychological). Anger usually is not a phase of a passing period but it becomes a part of the personality, so it affects our lives and the lives surrounding us directly. Anger can shift from being momentary to being constant, and our lives start to accumulate deposits of anger which leads to deposits in the energy channels, which then affects on the chakras, which eventually negatively affects the human body.

Only today don't worry: Every one worries. There is a difference between positive and negative worrying. Positive: is when I worry about my son or daughter passing an important exam, or even passing the street when going to school. Negative: is when I think and pre-empt events before happening; for example: what'll happen to me if I or one of my family members gets sick? What if they fire me one day and how will I find another job? What will happen if the ice in the North Pole melts? And other questions that cannot be explained or answered before it happens.

Respect your parents, acquaintances, the younger and older: This principle is regarded in all religions and societies; an important commandment. It will create an atmosphere of love, affinity and harmony between all people. Respect means to refine the soul; if you are respectful to others, you oblige them to be respectful to you.

Eat your bread from the sweat of your forehead: A very simple yet important principle. Respect myself and others, don't steal the possessions of others in order to live. Respect my profession and others'.

Be thankful to all the living things: This principle is based on tolerance, good word, smile, saying thanks and apologizing for any big or small mistakes we made. This principle is built upon essential inner change within the human. I, as a Reiki specialist, recommend people to smile every day; if we smile 3 times a day to 3 different people, we would have accomplished this principle.

The idea of Reiki can be summarized in this:
