Exploring Reiki Ellsworth ME With Beth Newman

By Patrick Bailey


Beth Newman is Holistic practitioner who treats adults and children with Reiki. In addition, Ms. Newman teaches Reiki ellsworth ME. If unfamiliar with the practice, it is an ancient Japanese healing art form in which practitioners use healing techniques associated with the energy field. While this is the case, as with most holistic healing forms, there is no well documented proof as to the effectiveness of the treatment.

Most often, practitioners of the art form use a palm down or hands open healing method to spread positive energy throughout the body. The energy force known as qi or chi is believed to be the universal energy which surrounds all being. Whereas, the transference of positive energy in the practice is believed to promte and encourage emotional and physical healing.

As the holistic healing form is considered a pseudoscience, it is used as an example in a number of academic journals and scholarly texts. For, the entire practice is based on qi or chi energy which practitioners believe is a universal life force shared by all living things on earth. While this is the case, there is no empirical evidence that qi or chi actually exist.

There has been no clinical research to date which has shown proof that holistic healing art form has the power to heal the body, mind or spirit. While this is the case, there are a number of clients and practitioners whom have seen healing take place first hand. As such, while investigators suggest that results which showed the potential for healing were flawed, those whom have experienced the practice either as a client or practitioner would most likely disagree.

When it comes to cancer, most agree that individuals should not replace traditional modes of care. Although, adding this healing technique to an existing treatment plan could provide positive results. For, the positive life force with which practitioners work has no side effects or interactions with other ongoing treatment.

Developed in 1922 by Mikao Usui in Japan, the holistic healing form has been modified and adapted to different cultures over time. As a result, different people may teach or treat in similar yet different ways. For, the holistic healing art form is now being used in most areas of the world.

According to the Oxford Dictionary, the word reiki can be defined as a mysterious atmosphere or miraculous sign as first recorded in the year 1001. The word combines rei meaning soul with ki referring to vital energy, henceforth the concept of qi or chi. Whereas, the earliest recorded use of the word in North America only dates back to 1975. As such, while the practice has existed for quite some time in Japan and other areas of the world, it is a fairly new practice in the United States.

A different definition exist in the Japanese language which indicates Reiki refers to rei as spirit and ki as breath of life, consciousness or vital energy. While rei refers to spirit, other meanings of ki can include character or nature, temperament, temper, frame of mind, moods and feelings. When it comes to learning Reiki, there are brick and mortar classes as well as classes being offered online.
