Transformational Energy Healing/Reiki

I have been asked many times what the difference is between Transformational Energy Healing and Reiki. I've wondered that myself but I never seemed to receive an answer that clarified it. I finally found one on a website of a local healer, who had the same teachers of Transformational Healing as I do now.

********************

What is Transformational Energy Healing?

Transformational Energy Healing is a gentle therapy which supports the body's natural state of energetic balance. Our physical health is intimately connected to our mental, emotional and spiritual state. Through a combination of energetic healing techniques and personal process work, healers help the client unravel the symbolic (spiritual) message behind their physical illness, thus empowering them in their healing journey.

How does it work?

Physical injuries and emotional traumas can create pockets of blocked congested energy which throw the body out of balance. The Healer, working with the body's energy centers (called Chakras), repairs and strengthens the seven levels of the human energy field, releasing blocked energy along the way. Some of these techniques are: Chakra Balancing, a relaxing whole-body experience, Spinal Balancing, great for back problems; Ovary Balancing, for PMS, menopause and fertility; Brain balancing, for headaches and migraines, Cancer Cleansing, energetic support for the cancer patient.

********************

What is Reiki?

Reiki Practitioners bring this universal life energy to other people using gentle hands-on techniques. Reiki is a therapy that induces relaxation. Reiki, like all healing, is a process. It will result in a healthy and natural flow of life force energy when combined with your willingness and commitment to make positive life changes. Changes will occur in divine order and on all levels of body, mind, and spirit.

Key Benefits of Reiki

Reduces and releases stress. Increase your energy level. Calms anxiety and assists in releasing blocked emotions. Promotes deep relaxation of muscles. Increases self-healing abilities. Can help reduce swelling and bleeding. Boosts your immune system.

Reiki functions regardless of your belief system. So even the skeptical can benefit.

********************

Both healings are like massage in that you feel very nurtured and relaxed. But with both of these healings, you can remain fully clothed. It works through clothing, blankets, casts...

Of course, there is much more to both of these techniques but I think this explains the basic idea that Reiki works on the body and emotions, the Transformational Energy Healer takes it "deeper" in that you are also working on your personal process. Thus, all the emotional and psychological work that I've been talking about in my entries about the class. In the class, the work I'm doing is more intense and concentrated then what would happen in a typical healing. A healing takes 45 minutes to 90 minutes. The classes are all weekend.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask. If I don't know the answer I will find out and report back.

It's late and I have got to hit the sack. Love, Light and Laughter!!!

Namaste,

	Jaime Campbellwrote: Hi! I JUST saw the comment that you left for me on the 9th about Reiki and TH. Sorry that it took me so long to thank you. I appreciated what you had to say and I will absolutely try the exercise that you described. I started having back pain toward the end of my first marriage. I definitely think the emotional pain that I was in living with an abusive man made my back pain begin. Thank you for your words. Hugs and love to you. Jaime. 16 May
	Stephenwrote: Hiya Startstuff! Good to see ya here again! Like Marge, I have heard of Reiki, but until you started writing about it, Transformational Healing was a new one for me. Of course I suppose its "new" in name only. (and perhaps in the techniques it utilizes) Because haven't we humans been seeking an effective mental healing process since the first time a parent lost their child in the dawn of history? I could go on and on with many, many other examples of the need for healing, and our attempts to find that healing, but that would be redundant, since we all know what they are, and many of us have experienced them first hand. I thoroughly enjoyed reading about your adventures in this healing class, and will be looking forward to more in the future. Thank you for sharing about your first experience on my "First Kiss" entry. That one has brought some really interesting responses, as I had hoped it would. cya soon, steve 11 May

	Jaime Campbellwrote: Wow. How cool. I've always been interested in this stuff. I think I'll go online in a bit and see where there are some classes near me. I have a horrible back. Think this will help? Hugs. Jaime. 9 May
	Margewrote: It's good to find you back here, StarryStuff!! You were missed! Thank you for the clarification; although I've heard of Reiki, Transformational Healing was new to me. I'd had my own ideas about the latter and it turns out I wasn't far from the mark. Being one who doesn't subscribe to the infallibility of the medical profession, it's good to know we have additions and alternatives to conventional western therapies. My personal bias tends to be a little anti-pharmaceutical, even though I take medications myself. As human knowledge and experience progtresses, my suspicion is that we will come to rely more upon the body's ability to heal itself, as opposed to turning to pills and potions. You may be one of a generation of human beings ahead of their time. If you encounter resistence, I hope it doesn't deter you in your pursuit of further knowledge and experience in this area. As a species, we are slow to accept change sometimes, usually out of a fear of control over our lives. If any thing, though, I believe what you are learning has the potential to place MORE control into our hands. Please, continue to update your readers concerning your progress and allow us to learn a little alongside you. I, for one, find the trip exhilerating! Peace and love, my friend, always. Marge 9 May
