While Reiki is renowned for for healing and enhancing spiritual awareness, it can also be used as a unique form of practical spirituality. When viewed as a straightforward, everyday energy, Reiki helps us make informed decisions to resolve day-to-day issues. Our intellectual capabilities may be adversely influenced by the perspective of others and altered by unfortunate life events, causing confusion, and requiring extra effort to stay centered and think clearly. If this continues, eventually, these unresolved events accumulate in our subconscious mind which can feel physically, mentally, and emotionally depleting, leading to overwhelm and the need to rest.

Reiki energy can assist us in avoiding this situation by stabilizing our reasoning ability and allowing us to better arrange our activities by setting priorities and using options. In addition, Reiki energy can help us better use our “gut brain” instincts and our “heart brain” sensitivity to our feelings, thus enhancing our decision-making and problem-solving skills.
