Whatever the reasons for beginning Reiki, the practitioner may do so because they want to become the Reiki healer in their local community, family or perhaps their natural compassion to help others drives them from within. They wish to offer their service of providing healing energy, perhaps even as a supplement or alternative to drugs or invasive medicine. The ultimate aim of course is for Reiki practitioners is to use their Reiki skills to improve the lives of others guiding and supporting them in positive change.
As Reiki is practised by the practitioner, they become even more inspired by the power of Reiki and the good way in which it can effect the lives of others and in doing so, their own faith in the healing power of Reiki energy is confirmed and continues to grow.
