REIKI and KARUNA REIKI  NATURAL HEALING

Reiki (Ray-Key)  is a Japanese word meaning “Rei” = divine light, and “ki” = energy.  It translates as Universal Life E, the energy that sustains all life.  Reiki is an ancient healing system rediscovered by Dr. Mikao Usui in the mid 1800s.  Hawayo Takata, a Japanese-American born and raised on Kauai, Hawaii, brought this natural healing method to the West in 1937.

Karuna (Kah-Roo-Nah) is a Sanskrit word and is used in Hinduism, Buddhism and Zen.  It translates to mean any action that is taken to diminish the suffering of others, and could also be translated as “compassionate action”.  When individuals experience enlightenment, they report that all beings are known as one.  Therefore, it is natural to extend compassionate action, or Karuna to everyone without distinction because we are all one.  As we help others and aid them in their healing process, all beings benefit.      

Reiki is a simple and highly effective healing method, which can be used on yourself, your family, friends and animals for greater health, well-being and profound relaxation.  It offers relief from pain and an acceleration of the body’s normal healing process.  Karuna Reiki works at a deeper level in the  healing of emotional and spiritual imbalances and expands your inner growth.  It can also help one become more grounded.  For many, both have become an important, transforming part of life.

Receiving a Reiki treatment is as easy as laying down.  Because Reiki penetrates through clothing, there is no need to undress.  After making sure you are comfortable, the Reiki Practitioner will place their hands in different positions on or off your body.  You may feel warmth or a tingling feeling in these areas.  Often people go into a deep and restful sleep while receiving a Reiki treatment.

If you are in pain, Reiki will bring relief.  If you have worries, Reiki will bring a sense of peace.  Many people experience a sense of rejuvenation after a treatment, as though something shifted into its rightful place.  The gift of Reiki is that it is very gentle and yet produces deep and profound changes.

Kate Rossetto, has been a Reiki Practitioner since 1991.  She received her 1st and 2nd degree initiations into this ancient healing while living on Maui.  Spring of 2000 provided the impetus for Kate to complete her training in advanced Reiki and Karuna Reiki, levels 1 and 2 . Kate is also an Aromatherapist and incorporates this alternative healing modality into her Reiki sessions.  Working with the various energies of plants (fragrance), sound (music), touch ( Reiki),  and other gifts of the Earth , are what Kate describes as vibrational healing.  When you open yourself to these subtle yet powerful energies, pathways for healing the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual aspects of oneself are more readily available and the journey to wellness begins.
