The Five Reiki Tenets
The five tenets of Reiki were adapted by Mikao Usui who was a reader of the works of Emperor Meiji. These principles came straight out of Meiji's writings. Usui took these principles a step further and incorporated them into his Reiki practice. The good news is you do not have to be studying Reiki to apply these principles to your life. The first principle is "Just for today, I will not worry." This is probably the toughest principle listed. It is hard not to worry about things which we have no control over. But in meditation and prayer, we can learn to hand those worries over to a higher life force and become more open to trust and have faith about th world we live in. The second principle is "Just for today, I will not anger." Sometimes when we get angry, we need to figure out what is causing the real issue. Is the person who cut in front of you or is it the person in line at the store with ten returns? Sometimes we can find behavior in other people that mirrors our own self.

Healing Meditation Using the Chakras System
When the body, mind, and spirit are working harmoniously together, the results are awareness, well being, and a balanced thought. In fact, nothing can beat the feeling of being healed on all levels. This can be achieved through healing meditation. Healing meditation is done to reprogram the negative thoughts that cause diseases or illnesses to become positive desires in achieving wholeness and health. Your perception of the image does not really matter at all. Most people are seeing themselves through the eyes of their minds. Some just imagine the ongoing process happens in all parts of their body. Others may simply accept the fact that whatever they imagine also happens to them in reality. Regardless of whichever category you belong, you participate actively in the process of healing. This is the most important thing you could do. Among the easiest forms of healing meditation is the Chakra System. The effects are quite profound. During the healing process, the patient's chakras are the center of importance. Your body has 7 major chakras (Chakra System) and a lot of less-significant minor chakras. They are considered as energy centers, points wherein energy flows, and the body's energy junctions. These are the energetic connections…

Celtic Reiki: Drawing Energy from Nature
Martyn Pentacost, a Reiki Master in Britain, was applying Reiki to a dying tree when he had a revelation. The tree was reciprocating the healing energy back into his hands. After this experience, he traveled Britain studying and meditating with the Ogham trees that the ancient Druids knew well. These particular trees have their own unique healing capabilities. In nature, most plants and trees do. The ogham trees work with the healing knowledge of the ancient Celtics and Druids. Celtic Reiki combines Japanese methods with the Ogham trees healing power. The ancient Druids had probably already figured out he healing power of the trees. They held most of their meetings and practice sessions inside a circle of these trees. The neat thing here is one does not have to touch the tree to share the energy, it can be drawn through the earth as well. There are Ogham symbols that are in correlation to the modern Reiki symbols that are used. The Ogham symbols are like a Celtic alphabet and are used in magic and communication. The most powerful system is Ogham nan Crann which is the Tree Ogham. There is also an ancient story about thorn trees that could…
