Permanent Zen Blog: Different Reiki Modalities

There are over 1200 modalities of Reiki out there! (Wow that's a lot of attunements!)

But there is only about 11 different kinds of mainstream Reiki.
Usui Shiki Reiki Ryoho as developed by Dr. Mikao Usui is the first and foremost type of reiki. It channels the universal source, and it promotes healing on physical, psychological, emotional and spiritual levels. That being said, there are many other types of energy healing modalities other than this traditional form.

Here is the list:


Ancient Egyptian Reiki: An extremely rich in terms of history, Ancient Egyptian Reiki is believed to be practiced since the times of Pharos in Egypt. This unique yet logical form is known in all over the world for its strong vibrational healing energy, which is extremely effective for patients. Ancient Egyptian Reiki generally utilizes the powers of Air, Fire, Water, Spirit and Earth to help recuperate patients.

Chios Energy Healing- Teaches deeply about the aura and the chakra system, and teaches many techniques on healing the energetic body, definitely one of the best modalities out there. 

Celtic Reiki - This one uses the ogham symbols and the earth healing energy. One of the core forms of reiki but it needs to be combined with Usui before it can be used with greater magnitude and force. 


Imara Reiki - Again another wonderful reiki boost attunement to help you grow as a healer. In terms of how to use this on others it's not very useful but in order to boost your own personal healing potential it's a must have.


Karuna Ki - Karuna means a profound feeling to alleviate suffering, with abiding compassion towards all beings.  This is the second step to Usui Reiki, and it's a modality of compassion and gentleness. I really like the energies behind this one as they're very flowing and smooth. 



Kundalini Reiki- In this system, reiki energy is channeled through the lower base chakra rather than crown chakra. This kindles spirituality and even helps the practitioner get over shyness, or recover from trauma and other negative emotions.  This is by far one of the best modalities available.

Lightarian Reiki - This modality connects you to higher energy sources, like the ascended masters and a stronger more refined version of the source. It's a very powerful form of energy healing, and you must be an Usui, and a Karuna Ki Master before you can be attuned to this one. 

Rainbow Reiki:  Walter Lubeck, a reiki master began this form of reiki. In this system, working with the seven main chakras in the body brings about healing. These chakras organize a body of light. This spiritual energy is used to heal and understand our true nature.


Shamballa Multi Dimensional Healing - Developed with Atlantean principals this one brings the healer into a more ancient form of healing that so far I haven't found problems with. I like it but I don't use it very often. 

Tibetan Reiki - Another one that goes hand in hand with Usui. It has new symbols which are powerful and allow the healer a stronger energetic capacity for healing from the source. Another recommendation of mine.

Universal Rays - By far one of the most in depth chakra healing systems I have seen. This one attunes you individually to the 7 major chakras, and it's a very powerful attunement. 

WHY REIKI HEALING IS EFFECTIVE FOR DEPRESSION & ANXIETY

Many individuals who are either suffering through depression or anxiety tend to rely on some form of medication. However, there is a growing number of people who are becoming aware of the fact that depression and anxiety can be cured without the use of anti-psychotics. Depression and anxiety need to be understood as energy imbalances rather than a mental disorder. Thus, in order to cure depression or anxiety, it’s critically important to treat the imbalanced energy and the behavior and mindset that proliferates the imbalance.

To overcome the root cause of depression or anxiety, Reiki in New York, as well as Spiritual Counseling can prove to be powerful solutions.

Reiki is a technique of transferring the universal energy to the patient by the practitioner to area of the body where it is needed.  Turning to Individual Reiki Sessions NYC can help you regain the natural flow of energy that our bodies need to be relaxed, happy and healthy. 

Namaste!
