Updated: May 31, 2020

What is Reiki? Maybe you have come across a friend who has received a reiki session. Or you saw a book about it at Barnes and Noble. Wherever it stemmed from, you're curious and decided to learn more about it. Well, you have come to the right place. In this article, I will cover everything about what Reiki is, where Reiki came from, and the benefits of it and my experience with it. Quest Coherence's mission is to cover everything metaphysic, and Reiki is in the metaphysics and healing category.


Reiki is truly a magical experience, whether you are practicing it or receiving the energy. Reiki is a Japanese healing technique. It is a safe and alternative stress-free reduction technique and it has been practiced since 1922. It originates from universal life force energy, also known as "qi" energy. Dr. Mikao Usui, its creator was the one who brought Reiki to Japan. "Rei" stands for God's wisdom of Higher power and "ki" stands for life force energy. Reiki is not a religion and it is not associated with any religion. What is the story behind Dr. Mikao Usui, and how was reiki created? Dr. Mikao Usui became a Monk/Priest during his later life. He began a meditation journey for 21 days on Mount Kurama in Japan. During his last meditation days, he channeled white energy throw his head chakra which he named Reiki.

How does Reiki enter the body?

Reiki comes from the heavenly clouds above and it is received through the crown chakra of the practitioner. From the crown chakra, the universal energy goes down the arms of the practitioner and into their palms. The client lyes down on a mat or sits in a chair fully clothed. Without touching the client, from above, the Reiki practitioner uses a technique called palm healing and heals the client by focusing on their chakras. Reiki's main purpose is to heal and relax the client and raise the clients vibration and align and balance out their chakras. Reiki is "life force energy", and it is what helps us stay alive and it encourages emotional and physical healing.


Did you know that reiki heals depression? In a 2010 study researchers found that depression subsided in adults who experienced received reiki and it reduced their anxiety, and pain. Their physical well being and mood changed. They also reported feeling more relaxed, increased their curiosity and enhanced levels of self care. Reiki also treats headache, tension, insomnia and nausea. The positive side is that there is no side effects to reiki, but it is not recommended to treat doctor approved treatment plan.


There are certain reiki techniques used during a reiki session. They are called centering, clearing, beaming, extracting harmful energies, infusing, and smoothing and raking the aura. During a reiki session, you might feel like you're floating, or flying. Reiki healers use crystals and chakra healing wands and they have the ability to enable healing or protecting a home from negative energy.


Reiki has saved my life. My practitioner, Shana Dean has been my reiki healer and instructor since 2017. I was diagnosed with psychosis in 2017 and had several entity attachments and didn't know how to remove them from my chakras. I had meditated and messed around with my chakras, not knowing that I created an imbalance within each one, therefore attracting low-vibrational beings, such as non-light beings. I was scared to death. Entities have a very negative effect on a human beings when attached. After searching through shamans, I finally found Shana, who is a Reiki Master, channeler, and a Shamanic healer. She removed all my entities just by using Reiki. She also taught me that entities are not as scary as they feel, they are just looking for the light, and they are lost. By channeling light beings and using reiki, she transmuted each entity from darkness to light and removed them through my crown chakra. I ended up learning Reiki I from her and she has become a teacher and one of my best friends ever since then.
