"Healing is the process of accepting all, then choosing best."

What is Reiki?

"REI" - Universal or Cosmic  "KI" Life Force Energy, also known as "chi".

Reiki is a Japanese word that literally means Universal Life Force Energy. It is a system of healing based on channeling energy from the Universe through a practitioner's hands. Reiki is an ancient practice that was rediscovered by Dr. Mikao Usui in the late 1800's. The principles are similar to acupuncture and acupressure.

Reiki teaches that a life force energy is present in all living things and that a shortage or blockage of energy results in physical and mental imbalance or illness. Left untreated over time these imbalances create "dis-ease". Reiki seeks the root cause of "dis-ease" and brings balance and alignment to the the body, mind and spirit.

Imagine a garden hose with a kink in it. The water pressure will build up on one end wanting to burst while the other end will be dry or depleted. Stress is the number one cause of kinks in our health. This analogy is useful when thinking about the body as an energetic structure. You can describe energy and water in similar terms, rocky, swift moving, stagnant or peaceful flowing.

Reiki creates movement and restores a healthy flow of energy between the chakras. Chakra is a Sanskrit word for spinning wheel or vortex. People and animals have at least seven major chakras which receive, assimilate and transmit life energies. The chakras are the network through which the body, mind and spirit act as a whole system. Each chakra relates to a gland in the endocrine systerm, is associated with at least one organ and specific bodily functions. Certain colors, emotional themes and beliefs correlate with each chakra as well.

The chakras are the power centers that over see the specific channels (meridians) of energy on which the individual acupunture points are located. Reiki works well with acupuncture and other healing modalities. It is safe and non-invasive. The recipient's body will act like a magnet drawing energy through the practitioner and distributing it as needed. The energy has a consciousness of its own.

While Reiki is not dependent on any particular belief system, the individual's intentions for healing and manifesting will impact the energy draw during a session. Reiki releases, cleanses, detoxifies and replenishes only as deep as the recipient's intentions allow. Marla guides her clients through the intention process to maximize sessions and to help honor the recipient's truest desires.

MATRIX....THE WAVE OF THE FUTURE

Matrix energy is the wave of the future. It is based on quantum physics principles and opens the body and soul up to a whole new set of possible realities where life can transform in the space of your next breath. Our physical bodies are encoded with patterns of information that reveal our experiences, emotional states, beliefs, our thoughts as well as other people's thoughts and expectations. These patterns may manifest in structural misalignments, ailments, pain, dysfunction or struggle. Clearing these information codes and creating new programs for our body, mind and spirit to run is the basis for this technique.

Matrix energy is modeled by our holographic universe. It transcends the time-space continuum, shifts consciousness and usually makes people feel like they inhaled laughing gas! It is a very playful and imaginative way to achieve amazing results. Matrix energy techniques complements and enhances Reiki sessions.

Often times intuitive information is shared during a Matrix Reiki session. Previous injuries or susceptible areas of the body will be "felt" through the energy exchange. A beautiful connectedness is shared between the souls of the practitioner and the receiver. Once that connection has been established, it is common for the Matrix Reiki practitioner to sense when something major is going on with that person or animal at a later date.

"When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change."  ~ Wayne Dyer

It's all in the energy! If everything is energy, then anything is possible!

There is no limit to how much energy you can receive since it is all about achieving balance and connecting mind, body and spirit. Every time a person gives a healing, they also receive a healing. Reiki cannot be used for manipulation or anything other than the highest and best interests of all involved.

LONG DISTANCE

The recipient need not be present for the energy transformation to occur. The Matrix Reiki sessions are not based on linear space and time restrictions. This means that a healing shift may happen in the past, present or future, across a long distance or with an animal or person in spirit.

Whether the session takes place in-person or via long distance method, the recipient typically experiences the same physical sensations such as feeling heat, tingling, or pulsing. It is common to enter dream-like, visionary states accompanied by a lightness of being. People and animals usually respond to the energy with a yawn, lick, sniffle or gurgle in the stomach. Sometimes releases will come in the form of tears or giggling outburts. It's all good!

"Healing results from an experience of infinity." ~ Alberto Villoldo

Do Animals Like it?                             

They love it! Animals are much more receptive to energy work and intuitive communication than people because they have not been programmed by society to be skeptical. In fact, many animals become Matrix Reiki junkies. They can sense when the energy is present and will move closer to the source.

Most animals, especially cats, see the energy. Dogs are really good at showing which area needs the attention first. Horses soak it up like a sponge and usually require longer sessions than small animals. They may paw or become slightly ancy just before the energy makes a shift. Then they process it with a lick, chew, yawn or head toss.

Our pets play an important role in our healing. All animal lovers know what it is like to come home from a tough day to be welcomed by their happy horse whinnies, excited dog, singing bird or cat that purrs and rubs all over them. But their healing benefits go way beyond taking our mind off of stress and replacing it with happy thoughts. Our animal friends provide one of the greatest sources of unconditional love on this planet. They have so much to teach those who are willing to learn. Many times animals will try to pull an illness out of a person and sometimes they will end up keeping it in their body.

Animals "mirror" us with similar physical, mental or emotional issues. Sometimes they do this out of love in an attempt to help us learn, grow and heal. It is typically much easier for people to help others than to help themselves and as people learn about issues through their pets, they are gently encouraged and supported to recognize and shift these issues in themselves.

Other times animals "mirror" us because our energy overlaps theirs, or because everyone is exposed to the same environment. Animals may pick up our physical and emotional toxins in the home.

These are some of the reasons why it is beneficial to work with people and their animals together to receive a full circle of healing and deepening of the close-knit bond we share with our animals.

Most animal clients are domestic pets however Marla has worked with reptiles, sea dwellers, big cats, wildlife and plants.

Healing may merely by a shift in attention.

Playing With Energy

To feel your own energy, tap the center of your palm three times on each hand. Then rub your hands briskly together for about 10-15 seconds. Next, close your eyes, take a few calming breaths and move your hands in and out without touching. Notice how close your hands come without feeling any resistance. Then see how far apart they can go while feeling connected. Try repeating this exercise a few times and observe any sensations that you are feeling in your hands. This is a great way to practice feeling your "Chi". Most people will feel warmth, coolness, tightening or tingling with this exercise.

Next time you experience pain or discomfort, try placing your hands in the region that is uncomfortable and imagine healing energy going directly to the area that is affected. It is our natural reflex to touch or lightly cup our hands over a fresh injury or sore spot.

Set Up a Session                                        

Matrix Reiki sessions are available in-person or by way of absentee healing. In-person healing sessions for people usually last about an hour with a little time before and after to talk about the experience. Many animals and children will process the energy very quickly needing less time to feel complete.

Distance sessions are approximately 15-20 minutes and can be done with recipients any where in the world as well as with people and animals now in spirit.

To set up a session or to buy a gift certificate email Marla or call (707) 328-4997.

Want to Learn Reiki?  

Marla teaches Reiki Levels 1 & 2 in line with the

traditional Usui System of Natural Healing. The Reiki healing ability is delivered to students

through a series of attunements that reorganize

the body's energy to adapt to the higher

frequencies. For some, Reiki will become a way of life. Once attuned to carry Reiki, the healing energy will always be available to the practitioner regardless of the amount of time that passes in between each use.  

"The energy of life flows through me and inspires me at all times."

                                     ~ Affirmations by John Holland                                                                                

Reiki energy healing is an ancient practice, however it's modern form was reintroduced by Dr. Mikao Usui, who in the late 1800's set out on a spiritual quest. He visited Buddhist Temples, researched the healing hands of Jesus and studied Sanskrit texts. While not dependent on any religious belief, the Reiki path was founded on these five principles:

Just for today, do not anger.

Just for today, do not worry.

     Honor your teachers, parents and elders

                       Earn your living honestly.

                         Show gratitude to all living things.

Becoming a Reiki healer is an incredible, life-altering experience. Please seek out the teacher that calls to you.  When the student is ready, the teacher will appear.
