Reiki
Reiki, a technique for stress reduction that promotes healing, is also called "Universal Life Force Energy." Unlike other healing therapies based on the premise of a human energy field, Reiki seeks to restore order to the body whose vital energy has become unbalanced. In Reiki, the healer places the hands above the recipient; however, it is the recipient that draws the energy as needed. Thus, the individual being healed takes an active part in the healing process.
Reiki has benefited the women at IWD with:
- Increased feelings of relaxation, security, and peace.
- The freeing of the body's energy blockages.
- A sense of self-empowerment.
- An increase in self esteem.
From the Reiki Master: "A client came in for a Reiki Session, she felt confused and in spasm. I told her that the mind is like a giant computer. She understood that immediately and said "yes, I just have to delete the spam." At the end of the session, she looked so good but started to "think" again and was mentioning her confusion."
