What is Reiki?

Reiki is a hands-on healing technique that was brought to the United States from Japan.  It involves energy work, and laying hands on your body through clothing while you give yourself energy that you channel through the Universe.  I’m attuned to level 1, but there are other levels.  I took time to learn Reiki 1, through a Reiki teacher, Manisha.  I took the time to learn it slowly, to practice using it, and to maintain my health with it.  Right now I’m having major struggles with high blood sugar and diabetes management in general.  Reiki sometimes helps but so does being aware of my feelings, since I’m struggling with those too.  I have like three therapists this week to help me.
