Reiki And Depression


I recall living in London, UK, in 1999. At the time, I was deeply depressed and wanted to end the emotional pain more than anything else. A really talented healer named Hugh offered reiki healing in Covent Garden, thus I went for healing sessions about twice a month.

I had started my reiki training before meeting Hugh for the first time, so my understanding of emotional healing was already quite good.

Let me share with you how reiki can heal negative emotions.

Working With Negative Emotions


For one, healing negative emotions such as depression takes time, it does not happen overnight. That said, it is possible to heal even the most deeply rooted depression, but we must have realistic expectations on what the reiki energy can do for us and what we have to do ourselves.

Now, sit down comfortably and become aware of your negative emotions. By giving the emotions attention, they will gradually be healed. Normally, we do anything we possibly can to avoid unpleasant emotions. Just for now, give the negative feelings gentle and caring attention.

At first, it is quite unpleasant to give attention to negative emotions, but you will get used to it over time. This practice has another positive effect, namely teaching us to accept negative emotions.

What is more, a difficulty arises when we cannot feel the depressive emotions clearly anymore. We may still be depressed, yet the emotions have taken on a subtler and less tangible form.

This is where reiki comes into the picture. Reiki energy activates these slumbering emotions, thus making it easier to work with them.

Another benefit of reiki healing is that it cleanses your entire energy system, which is most refreshing.

Healing Meditation And Reiki


When I lived in England, I would spend hours and hours a day giving caring attention to my negative emotions, which is a form of healing meditation, and about twice a month I would go on supportive reiki treatments.

These reiki sessions cleansed any emotional residue that was lingering in my aura, and left me feeling intensely peaceful. The combination of healing meditation and reiki made for thorough healing.

When you feel depressed, it is difficult to see any light at the end of the tunnel, but I can assure you that even the deepest depression can be healed. Essentially, you have to heal yourself, but reiki can help you along the way...

Best of luck!
