Reiki, a Japanese energy modality, may seem difficult to understand to the logical mind, but that is because in the Western world we tend to understand only what we can see. When we look at the human body, we see the biological aspects of bones, skin, hair, etc., as well as the chemical components of blood and hormones.
Researchers have shown that we also incorporate an energy component. Energy exists within each cell and between each cell, our subtle matter. This energy, when blocked or depleted, can cause many physical problems in the body including fertility problems.
In many areas of the world, medical treatments or health and wellness models include the integration of some form of energy medicine to treat the whole body. When one’s energy is out of balance, the body is affected in some way. Over time, an energy imbalance will manifest itself as some kind of symptom or illness in the body.
The longer a practitioner works with an energy modality, the more sensitive he becomes to what is or is not happening in a client’s energy field. After writing an article on Reiki and fertility issues, I received a phone call from Karen * explaining the challenges she faces with fertility and how the medical community advises her to adopt or receive a donor egg. Something in her voice tells me that she knows she can get pregnant. We then discuss what Reiki can do to support your body, mind, and emotions, whether you’re trying to get pregnant on your own or going through the IVF process.
Our life story impacts and creates the energetic dynamics that are occurring in our body. Positive behaviors like good eating habits, exercise, and increased healthy self-esteem fuel a positive energy flow in the body. Constant stress, lack of exercise, substance abuse, and harboring a fearful or negative belief system cause blockages in the energy field that decrease flow to different areas of the body. The energy field can also be damaged by broken bones, falls, past surgeries, serious illness, or long-term mental or emotional stress.
An energy professional must first assess what is or is not happening in the client’s entire energy field and then work to repair and restore it. What we must understand when seeking any energy modality for healing is that it took years or even decades to create the energy dynamics that are occurring in our bodies to support or obstruct our health and pregnancy goals. Restoring wellness using Reiki is a process.
During my first session with Karen, I explored where her energy was blocked or unbalanced and began to restore her energy field. I noticed that the energy around his reproductive system was very low. The energy from the left ovary seemed too hot and it felt like the energy was isolated or not connected to the rest of the reproductive system. I observed that his left field in those areas was losing energy, so I began to work to seal the energy losses and saturate his field with Reiki. I also felt that her sinuses on the right side were worrying her.
All parts of our body play a role in keeping us healthy. Our energy, when optimal, supports overall health and well-being. It provides the fuel for all the systems and organs of our body to function at full capacity. Without a full tank, we can feel as if we are fighting on various levels; Our bodies may not be able to function perfectly the way the various components are supposed to, and our emotional or mental states may experience depression or feel overwhelmed.
Unlike in the medical realm, where physicians take note of measurements of hormone levels, follicle development, anatomical abnormalities, and other patterns during infertility treatment, Reiki cannot label specific deficiencies in the energy field. of a woman because the energetic dynamics of each person is different. The common denominator is that each woman’s energy is diminished in some way, but the reason for low energy levels is different for each.
After completing the energy field assessment, I used Reiki to bring Karen’s energy body back into balance. It may take several sessions to restore energy to the body and repair broken and depleted energy lines (chakras, meridians, nadis, hara line) that send energy to different parts of the body. Fortunately, Reiki can energetically connect people at a distance and achieve the same amazing results, whether they are separated or physically together in the same space.
Reiki can be used throughout a woman’s cycle to support follicle growth and healthy egg recruitment, egg fertilization, and help the embryo implant itself into the lining of the uterus. Reiki also provides emotional and mental balance helping the client to align with the fertility process in a more positive way. It is very discouraging for a woman to be told by the medical community that she must give up when she feels empowered to manifest a family. Negativity penetrates your emotional and energy fields, creating more blocks. Reiki supports her in a place where she knows that everything will work out and that all parts of her being are working to create the greatest good for all. We are powerful manifesters, especially where our hearts dwell. Energy follows thought and is empowered by our feelings.
It is important for women with fertility problems to know that the process of receiving Reiki to restore the energy field should begin as soon as possible when you are considering conception by any means. This gives a woman’s energy field time to cleanse, repair and strengthen itself so that her new cycle begins. Reiki also helps with the lack of energy a woman feels in the first and third trimesters of pregnancy, as well as providing excellent labor and delivery support.
A medical client who successfully used Reiki to get pregnant pointed out that although there are no scientific studies on Reiki in fertility treatment, infertility is a medical crisis for a couple, affecting all aspects of their lives and well-being. Taking exquisite care of each other and the relationship during this time is a must.
Diversifying your healing team, including yourself as a committed member, will make a difference in how quickly you can achieve your goals. The Reiki that clients receive during this process not only supports the reproduction process, but also helps bring balance and peace to mind, body, and life.
