Until you actually experience this new vitality directly it is hard to imagine that something so simple can create such an entirely new way of being. This is, in essence, the effect Reiki has on our physiological state. The Universal Life Energy relaxes those parts of the body which it is allowed to enter. Symptoms of conflict erupt when you resist life and blockages occur. Reiki opens other, more harmonious pathways, and in flowing the blockages will be dissolved.
Relaxation is followed by stimulation of the metabolism as a new vitality flows into an organism.
All of a sudden the detoxification processes become revitalized and are subsequently capable of eliminating old waste products while preventing the accumulation of new ones. In this way more and more areas of the body are opened to the life-force energy and thus to relaxation.
