Reiki is a form of energy therapy to promote healing across the physical, emotional, and mental bodies. The term "Reiki" is derived from two Japanese words: Rei, meaning a subtle wisdom or spiritual consciousness that permeates all things, and Ki, the vital life force energy that animates all living beings.

Rei represents the universal wisdom that guides the evolution of all creation, from galaxies to the development of life.

Ki is the non-physical energy that flows through all living things, including plants, animals, and humans. A person with high Ki feels strong, confident, and capable of meeting life's challenges.

Reiki can be defined as a spiritually-guided life force energy that possesses an inherent intelligence, flowing where it is needed to create the healing conditions necessary for the individual's well-being.
