Shamanic Reiki vs Reiki :. Is a healing technique that requires the practitioner to channel energy into a client for an array of reasons (clearing chakras, promote flow of energy, healing, etc.) As a healer, in all modalities we accept our unique and powerful relationship to the energy of the universe. When egos are not present, reiki is able to flow more easily. This allows healers to tap into being a channel of energy, and focus on the client. The same applies for shamanic healing. There are some differences between traditional Reiki and shamanic healing. With Reiki, healers call upon a source of energy for healing. We might refer to it as “God”, or “The Universe”, but you can refer to it however you please. For shamanic healing, it is based on the view that all life has consciousness, and does not accept hierarchies the way Reiki does. With shamanism, healers believe that we are able to tap into nature’s spirits and call upon their power to do the healing. If you are looking for a more intimate and targeted healing, Shamanic Reiki is often recommended. When healers are studying traditional Reiki, their instructors often teach them specific movements and symbols that are not to be strayed from. However, with Shamanic Reiki, healers are able to follow a more intuitive, and often more intimate, direction. Healers will urge you to open your heart and let your intuition guide you. It is pivotal to trust your intuition even if it might differ from what those around us believe. When we open our hearts, our intuition will guide us where we need to be. The spirit world charges the shaman with the ability to promote healing. The most important relationship that healers have is with the spirits that offer us guidance. With traditional Reiki, the intelligence we receive empowers us to level imbalances and clear blockages. However, in Shamanism, we can remove negative energies. With Shamanic healing, it can often be most powerful to do extractions or call on specific spirits to move blocks.  In Shamanic Reiki, we bode the ability to call upon all spirits of nature. All of the forces that exist around us and that we interact with everyday are channeled for healing. Healing comes from elements and from helping spirits. It is not the shaman itself, but their spiritual connection that performs powerful healing. Healers are merely intermediaries, and channels for the spirit world to access others in an attempt to accomplish successful healing for others
