Energetic Healing/Reiki related
Questions
How does Energetic Healing differ from Reiki?
Reiki is a form of Energetic Healing. The reason I’ve
chosen to differentiate what I personally do is because
Reiki isn’t the only energy I use during sessions. Usui
Reiki is actually more restrictive than some other forms
of energetic healing in that there are specific hand
positions that are used during a session.
What is Reiki?
Reiki is the Japanese word for the
life energy that flows through all
things in the Universe. The practice
of Reiki is a healing modality using
this Universal energy to clear and
balance a person’s energetic body
(or field if you prefer) to aid the physical body in
maintaining its own health.
How does Energetic Healing/Reiki work?
In the context of an energetic healing session, the
practitioner is a conduit for healing energy. During
your session, the practitioner “reads” your energy to
identify areas where the flow of energy is sluggish or
blocked. The practitioner clears any blockages and
then directs the healing energy to the areas that need to
be replenished. Reiki is an “intelligent” energy, it
knows where it needs to go, what it needs to do, and
what is best for the situation (which may not be what
we originally intend). Other healing energies used may
need some “instruction” from the practitioner, but all
the healing energies used all work toward the highest
good for the client.
Will Energetic Healing/Reiki cure illness?
No. energetic healing doesn’t “cure” anything.
Energetic healing/Reiki can be a benefit when we have
an illness or are over-taxed due to stress by keeping the
energetic pathways free-flowing. If our energy can
flow freely, our bodies are better able to cope with daily
stressors and potential or existing illness.
Will Energetic Healing/Reiki keep me from getting
sick?
Maybe. There is currently no way to quantify the
effects of energy work on our bodies. Speaking from
personal experience, I can say that by regularly clearing
my energetic pathways I tend to stay healthier and have
heard the same from others.
How can Energetic Healing/Reiki help me?
The “ki” (energy) present within
an individual should be strong
and free flowing. When this is
so, the body and mind are in a
positive state of health. But
when our energy becomes weak
or blocked it can lead to physical
and/or emotional imbalance. An energetic
healing/Reiki session helps to clear the energy
pathways within the body so that your body can keep
itself as healthy as possible.
Why do I need to see a practitioner, can’t anyone use
this energy?
Practitioners who deal with healing energies have been
trained to feel and direct the healing energy directly so
that we may clear any blockages and strengthen the
flow within the energetic body. In the case of Reiki
energy, the process that we go through during training
includes a series of attunements that modify our own
energy field so that we can utilize the Reiki energy
properly.
How are your sessions different than those offered by
other practitioners?
Each session that I perform is different and tailored to
the individual client’s needs. Some practitioners prefer
to use a set method within their practice but I prefer to
remain flexible and allow my intuition and the specific
energy from the client to dictate how a session
progresses. In addition I will include aromatherapy,
crystals, or singing bowls if needed.
Do you teach Reiki?
I am certified to teach Reiki and may do so in the
future, but for now I don’t feel I’m ready to teach.
What is an Energetic Healing Distance Session?
Because Energetic Healing deals solely with energy, it
can be done without touch or even needing to be in the
same room. During a distance session, the practitioner
is able to read and direct energy without regard to
spacial limitations. A distance healing works just as
well as an office visit, the only difference is that direct
(physical) communication between practitioner and
client is reduced. All distance sessions are done via
telephone to maintain the proper feedback from the
client during the session.
Do I need to bring my pet to your office for an
Energetic Healing Pet Session?
No. Animals are more comfortable in their home and
are more likely to accept the healing energy there. If
you are within 25 miles of LAX I may agree come to
your home to perform the session for your pet. Outside
this range, we will arrange to do a Distance session for
your pet. Please note that I will not work with
aggressive animals directly ... if your dog or cat doesn’t
like new people or has bitten anyone in the past, make
sure to arrange a Distance session through my online
shop instead of requesting a home visit.
Why don’t you offer home sessions for humans?
My office is setup to energetically support healing
sessions. Most people have others living with/around
them and the energy from others can hamper the
healing process. It is not practical to do this sort of
work in an environment where energies that aren’t
supportive of the process exist, nor is it feasible to
spend extra time to clear out those energies prior to a
session.
Why don’t you answer the phone?
I am more interested in helping others to create a
healthy balance in their lives and find that a phone
nearby only serves to distract from the healing energy
in the office space.
Is it appropriate to tip an Energetic Healing
practitioner?
It’s always acceptable to offer a gratuity to anyone
performing a service for you, but it’s really up to you.
As with other services, a tip says “thanks for doing a
really good job” or “I really like the service I got”. But
I don’t believe that energetic practitioners get upset if
you don’t tip ... I know I don’t anyway.
Light Language related Questions
What is a Light Language grid good for?
Pretty much anything that involves any sort of
improvement or stabilization effect. I’ve used grids to
create more harmonious communication at home,
“tune-up” my own mental and emotional processes, aid
in spiritual growth, create a more peaceful workspace,
and even to aid the adjustment period
when bringing a new pet into our
home.
What’s the difference between the
Stationary, Intermediate, and
Advanced grids?
Stationary grids work by associating your spaces
(home, car, office) or personal communication devices
(computer, cell phone, tablet) with your personal
chakras. They are used to harmonize your
spaces/devices to your energy field.
Intermediate and advanced grids work by establishing
an energy flow to aid your attempts at reaching a
specific goal. Intermediate grids work in the near term
and frequently stop working after a set date. Advanced
grids are for long term change and work more slowly.
Astrology related Questions
What information is in your
astrological reports?
Natal charts (birth charts) contain a
detailed description of how each
planetary aspect can affect who you
are. Compatibility and Relationship
charts compare the planetary aspects between two
people and describes how those aspects might affect
their interactions.
What information do you need to prepare an
astrological report?
The date and time of birth as well as the birth location
(city and state) are required for each person in the chart.
For a natal, solar return, or transit chart that’s just you
(or whomever you want the report for, perhaps a child).
For one of the relationship or compatibility charts this
information is needed for both the people to be charted.
