Reiki is simple. As compared to other
forms of therapy which may demand months of training, Reiki can be
learnt in a weekend. The ability to learn Reiki is not dependant on any
special attributes in the learner. It is passed on from one the teacher
to the student and he can then do Reiki. So, even a child can learn
Reiki. In other forms healing, the healer must concentrate hard on
sending energy. In Reiki, once the initial intention to treat has been
completed and the hands have been placed on the body, the energy is
drawn on its own.
Reiki is quite effective for self-treatment. Reiki is always with the
personal and requires no special devices. Whenever there is pain
somewhere, or when there is a feeling of tiredness, Reiki can be used to
energize and calm down.
