Brief History of Reiki
In ancient India and Tibet, spiritual healers practiced Reiki for purification and enlightenment, though it was kept secret for centuries. This practice was lost until the late 1800s whenDr. Mikao Usui, a Japanese monk, rediscovered it during his spiritual journey to uncover how Buddha and Christ healed through touch.
Usui’smethods became thefoundation of modern Reiki. In the 1930s,Mrs. Hawayo Takatabrought Reiki to the United States after being healed through it, and she spread the teachings globally. Today, Reiki is practiced worldwide, offering gentle healing and balance for people, animals, plants, and even projects.
