What Is Reiki? …And How Can Energy Healing Help You? Part 3 of 3
Ever since men and women were thrown out of the Garden of Eden it has been necessary to heal the body. Life then became hard. Those people were taught how to heal—to “run energy” through their natural vortexes located in the palm of the hands.

The first-degree energy is enhanced and amplified greatly, and the student is taught how to send the healing energy over long distances and to other points in time. The student learns techniques for using the Reiki symbols to cleanse and protect the aura (an invisible etheric energy field around the physical body.) The symbols can be used to remove bad energy from your home or
