I have been thinking about the many benefits we receive when the practice of Reiki is part of our daily lives. Reiki has affected every aspect of my life in a positive healing and loving way. My hope is that Reiki will become a routine for you as exercising and eating healthy. As we start, may I remind you that Reiki does no harm and makes no guarantees.
Each person has a different physical and emotional makeup. Therefore, Reiki will affect each person differently. Our state of being and physical condition will allow different levels of healing.
The following list of benefits was provided to me by my daughter, my Reiki Master, in the manuals she wrote for each level of my training. I have expanded on the list based upon my own experiences. I hope the list provides a helpful guide to you as you travel your Reiki path. They serve as a reminder of the possibilities.
