Whenever any part of the Human Energy Complex (HEC) is out of balance, illness and stagnation will occur. If the energy is not flowing in its proper path at the proper rate this is imbalance. In Reiki you will see disease referred to quite consistently as dis-ease because that's exactly what it is. An antagonist to one's sense of ease and comfort. Dis-EASE.
The main function of Reiki is to restore balance, harmony, and the all-powerful sense of comfort and ease that allows health, vitality, and happiness to manifest freely. Perhaps one of the easiest ways to restore balance is to cultivate a sense of hope and joy for every living moment of your life.
Positive emotions like happiness, humor, love, compassion, tranquility, and contentment are very light, pure qualities of energy. When you feel these emotions, you are generating positive, healing energy. Negative emotions like worry, fear, dread, hate, anger, greed, envy, etc., are very dense, heavy energies that require large amounts of energy and work to circulate and maintain, and they tend to infect others they come in contact with (as do the positive emotions). When you dwell in a place of negativity, illness and pain will surely, surely manifest.
The surest manifestation of long-term negativity is illness and dis-ease. This is where Reiki becomes such a universal treatment (as in effective for everything). It begins by restoring peace and balance in the mind and body.
The recipients of Reiki energy consistently report feelings of calmness, contentment, deep relaxation, and peace. This is the first state of being and will ultimately be the last state of being in every incarnation. It is in this state that healing occurs, and this is the state that we must constantly nurture to maintain our physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health. Don't you think it's a good idea to develop an immunity to negativity by dwelling in joy? Why don't you start now, by smiling! Then go out and share that smile with someone who needs it. :-)
