The Past Cannot Be Changed, But Today Can

Today/Now you can change your view of your past, and this changes the vibrations you attach to the past. Changing ourselves requires deprogramming. Japanese style Reiki deprogramming is one of the gentlest and most effective ways of making those changes today/Now/in the present moment that touch yesterday and tomorrow. You might think deprogramming is for cults and wars, but it is most commonly used for the everyday brainwashing that often causes depression and physical illnesses. n n I will use person X as an example of every day brainwashing. You might find that person X sounds a lot like you. As a young person X was told s/he never listened, always procrastinated, and always wanted ridiculous things. Schoolteachers added to the list of things X did wrong. Then from a spouse it was you never know what you are talking about, and you never do anything right. From children it was, I wish you were nice like the other kids’ parents, and you never know what is good for anyone. Good things were said to X as well. However, all the negative combined over time can create a block so that the positive things are not heard. Often times these blocks keep a person from enjoying the good things in life. Physical and mental symptoms that medical doctors say they can find no reason for sometimes appear as well.

Japanese styles of Usui Reiki Ryoho styles such as Gendai Reikiho and Komyo Reiki, coming directly from Japan, have numerous techniques that bring balance to the mind, body, and spirit and surround with harmony. This creates a natural healing for the mind, body and spirit. Life takes on a whole new look when everything is in balance and surrounded with harmony. You cannot learn Reiki from a book or video, but in today’s world there are many qualified Reiki Shihans (master/teachers) with an energy and technique lineage back to Mikao Usui, the founder of Usui Reiki Ryoho.

Usui Reiki Ryoho, commonly shortened to Reiki, is the name Mikao Usui gave to the vibration of combined universal love and harmony he connected to in 1921. Can you think of any more powerful energies then love and harmony? Then go one step further and think of all the love and harmony that has been collecting and building in the universe since before the beginning of time. Now imagine those two powerful energies combined. Neither a Reiki Shihan nor Reiki practitioner diagnoses or promises a cure, but Reiki goes to the core of the imbalances. From the center of each cell, it shines like a flashlight healing from the inside out.

Reiki as with anything natural does not quickly mask symptoms or produce what we might think is a cure. Health and happiness is just like each of us in that it is unique to each person. Regardless, when Reiki is allowed to flow over time balance happens. The negative that has taken years to cause imbalances in the mind, body, or spirit requires time to replace with positive.

If you are still wondering about a deprogramming session or a session that balances, from a qualified Reiki Shihan or Reiki practitioner it is a very relaxing experience. You are always in control regardless of the ultimate relaxation you experience, you never have to be exposed to alcohol or smoke, you do not have to eat or drink anything special before of after a session, and you are not lost floating in left field as with some medications/drugs. Reiki does not replace professional licensed medical care, but it complements all other healing modalities as it balances and surrounds with harmony. What is in balance and with harmony heals.

In my college psychology 101 I read that humans do not have instincts, but have learned or imprinted behavior. While I believe we do have some instincts I also believe that often the imprinted behavior we acquire happens when we are looking the other way. Pulling your hand back from a flame or ducking as an object comes toward you are learned behaviors to help keep you safe. Unfortunately, some reactions you blend into your everyday life might not be helpful to your well-being. If you have ever seen the five simple lines of the Gokai (five Reiki precepts or principles), it might make you think that Reiki is too simple to be good. If you are reading one of the manuals my Reiki Shihans or I have written you will find that each of those very short simple lines requires more then a paragraph to describe in depth. Mikao Usui’s spiritual practice is simple yet profound. Some of the simplest things in life are the most beautiful. n n Reiki does not require any elaborate rituals or any material objects to give it strength. Reiki practitioners spend endless hours learning with his or her Shihan (teacher) and practicing. A Reiki Shihan has completed at least four levels or degrees in whatever style of Usui Reiki Ryoho she or he practices. Within each of the first three levels of Reiki, numerous hours are spent learning and practicing exercises and techniques; exercises and techniques that help to balance mind, body, and spirit thus bringing the complete person to a natural state of well-being.

Living in Maine, in the United Stated I began by studying styles of Usui Reiki Ryoho commonly practiced in North America. I then learned the simple yet very strong Japanese Reiki techniques of Gendai Reiki-ho and Komyo Reiki from Hiroshi Doi and Rev. Hyakuten Inamoto, who each have only two teachers between themselves and Mikao Usui. I also learned how nature and Reiki complement each other.
