This track is suitable for anyone attuned to Reiki level 1 or above. An experienced Usui Reiki Master Teacher, and Meditation Teacher, Ema guides you through the whole practice, step by step, in an accessible, calming way, with helpful imagery and explanations to help empower you in this technique. This practice is a valuable tool to help with releasing and old, stuck energies (including repetitive thoughts, emotions, habits and ideas), and bringing in bright new fresh energy to revitalise your entire energetic system on all levels. This practice has no downside - everything you release can then be transformed by Mother Earth, to be recycled into bright fresh new energy, to go back into the world. And anything you release which does still need to be addressed by you, will come back but perhaps in a new light - easier to tackle, release fully, and integrate.

Hello and welcome to this Reiki shower practice.

This practice is suitable for anybody who has been attuned to Reiki at level one or above.

I'd like to invite you first of all to make your connection to Reiki.

There's no right or wrong with this,

So simply set your intention and connect to Reiki as you usually would do or as you feel drawn to do.

If you're not quite sure or confident on doing that yet,

Maybe you'd like to simply say to yourself,

I'm now connecting to Reiki to do the Reiki shower practice.

So,

First of all,

Holding your hands in prayer position or gassho in front of the heart.

This signals to your energy and to your body-mind that you are stepping away from the space of doing into the space of being.

Your hands are what you use to interact with to make change in the world.

They're very powerful energetic centers and tools.

When we place them together like this,

We are signaling to our energy,

To our body,

To our mind that we are going within.

We are connecting with ourselves.

With each in-breath,

I'd like to invite you to breathe your breath through the nose all the way down as though you're breathing it through the lungs and down further through the abdomen into the lower belly.

Maybe you'd like to follow the breath with your mind's eye.

Imagine it traveling all the way through your nose,

Down through the airways,

Down through the lungs,

Through the solar plexus,

Through the upper abdomen,

And down past the navel into the lower abdomen in the very center of the body.

Now,

This is a very important energy center in the body,

The lower dantian.

And you're breathing in the breath,

The energy of the air and the Reiki,

And drawing it down into this energy center deep within your body,

Activating and reinforcing your connection to Reiki through this energy center as well.

Taking a few breaths like this,

Feeling into the flow of Reiki,

Just noticing what this is like.

Then when you feel the Reiki flowing,

I'd invite you to hold your hands facing each other above your head,

As high above as is comfortable for you to.

And just feel that flow coming out through the palms of the hands,

Into the space between the hands.

Maybe it feels like air pressure is building up.

Maybe it feels as though your hands are pushing against a balloon.

Maybe it doesn't,

And that's fine too.

But just feeling into that flow.

And when you're feeling that flow in both of your hands,

Turn your palms to face downwards,

The fingertips facing each other,

Hands still above your head.

And that flow is still flowing out of the palms of the hands,

But now it's also flowing.

Like a powerful jet out of the fingertips,

Directly out.

And also creating a fan out through the sides of the hands as well.

So it's as though your hands are powering a Reiki jet wash that comes out through the sides and tips of the hands,

And also sweeps down through the palms.

So this is having the double effect of sweeping out through the whole auric field,

And down through the body.

Loosening,

Releasing,

Cleansing and clearing away anything that is ready to go.

Anything that's not you,

Any old,

Stale,

Spent energy.

And this might take the form of tiredness,

Heaviness,

Feeling of stuckness in some area of your life.

It might take the form of unwanted,

Repetitive thoughts,

Unhelpful habits that no longer align with you and your life's purpose.

Anything that you might be carrying that isn't yours,

That you're carrying from somebody else,

Maybe somebody else's ideas,

Or emotions,

Or wishes.

There's no judgment around the fact that we all get caught up in this kind of thing,

From time to time.

We're all connected to one another and to the world.

And sometimes we do end up weighed down.

This practice is a great way to bring ourselves back to our own experience,

To our own energy.

To let go of what's weighing us down,

And to re-center,

To refocus.

And it also heals us.

Because the Reiki is not only cleansing us,

It's reinvigorating our body and our auric field,

On a cellular and even a quantum level.

So moving your hands very gently down towards your head,

And then when your hands get to about an inch or so above the very top of your physical body,

Just bring them forward.

Allow them to follow the general shape of your body,

But from a little away from the body.

So it's as though you are moving your hands in line with the aura.

And the Reiki is flowing powerfully,

High-velocity Reiki,

That is flowing out through the auric field,

Through the body,

Through the auric field at the back of the body and the sides.

It's powering through,

Making easy work of,

Sweeping everything away that you're ready to let go of.

And don't worry if there's anything that you release,

That you do need to work on,

Or that is still something that's in your karma to heal,

Or to work with and to grow from,

It will come back.

This isn't going to have any kind of negative effect for you or for anybody else.

It's simply good,

Energetic hygiene.

And notice what it feels like,

Where that Reiki shower has been.

Do you feel reinvigorated,

Or relaxed,

Or both?

Do you feel a sense of tingling?

There's no right or wrong,

Just notice what it's like,

Where the jet is,

Where the jet has been,

And if you feel inclined to,

You can always revisit any areas that felt as though there was something more to go,

Or maybe a sense of stubbornness with what was there,

Or maybe even it was a case that it felt really good when you were working there.

Follow your intuition,

Follow your felt sense,

And know that there is no negativity from any aspect of this,

There's no danger of harm or setback,

This is purely a positive action to take.

And you can do this practice whenever you feel like it,

Daily,

Weekly,

Several times a day even.

You cannot do this too much.

And when your hands reach the floor beneath you,

Simply bring them back to gassho,

In front of your heart space,

And thank Reiki for the Reiki shower.

Know that it has positive outward ripples into your life and the lives of everybody around you.

It's going to help your relationships,

Your interactions,

Your actions,

Be as positive,

Unencumbered,

Joyful,

And as aligned to your path and your purpose as they possibly can be.

Many blessings to you.

Have a beautiful day.
