I will try to explain mind and body relaxation myself I look to the Buddhist (shin) philosophy note it’s not a religion if you are Reiki you should know the foundation of Reiki is Buddhist. Now meditation is the main stay mastering meditation is fundamental however not all. You need to have a way of thinking to see anger a useless emotion if you have a problem know anger only makes it worse you need a clear mind to solve any problem. You must practice kindness and understanding and empathy for all beings not asking you to be perfect just control your mind and think before you act engage your mind before your mouth when you speak use a relaxing tone of voice remember no one can argue with you when you have a relaxing style and voice and ask why they are so upset you might say jumping up and down wont fix it. Think in terms of karma but don’t expect it but know it when it happens. You might recognise the hypnotic voice when you get it right. Then when you make a suggestion people will listen to you. If you try doing this with practice you will find calmness in your self you might note all the good things in your life and how silly life’s little problems are you might find you have an aura people will like. I came to understand this about 30years ago . below is from BUDDHIST CONCEPT
OF
HEAVEN AND HELL
According to the Buddha, anybody can experience heavenly bliss if his or her mind rests constantly on four divine abodes in this very life: we call them the four Brahma Viharas or the four Divine Abidings. These are Metta (loving kindness), Karuna (compassion), Mudita ( Sympathetic Joy) and Upekkha (Equanimity). To be happy a person must develop Right Understanding which among other things is the ability to see that one exists only in relation to all other living beings. This means that in order to be happy one must ensure the well being and happiness of others. When we practise Metta, we suffuse the entire universe, beginning with ourselves, with pure unselfish love without discrimination. We also radiate our feelings of compassion (Karuna) towards those less fortunate then we are and work actively and ceaselessly to reduce their suffering. Then we rejoice at the happiness enjoyed by others (Mudita) because by so doing we eradicate the poisonous feelings of jealousy and ill-will. But the highest of all these positive states of well-being is Upekkha where the mind remains unaffected by any emotions positive or negative but is supremely calm,
"Dr. Mikao Usui" said.
Just for today-/do not rise to anger/-do not succumbs to worry/-express gratitude for all your blessing-/apply yourself diligently /–manifest compassion to all beings.
I say try it just for one day hope this don’t sound like a lecture ..however you might like it and find were the power of Reiki comes from Sidney.
