hiya Resko, thanks for the update! I can't remember if you already said, but how were you using Reiki to do this?

I'm genuinely interested in this. I dunno if you folks would agree, but if it was done over a longer period, and had more sustained results, then by god, i'd eat ym damn hat! cause that kinda thing would really excite me. discovering something like this !

Day five: lost nothing but
day six lost 1.5

With all being said she lost total of 5 pound in 6 days!

What is very interesting (based on my notes) is that her sensations on day one and day six were the strongest. She said (and I observed it as well) that she was drifting away meaning that she was in deep alpha.

All other days the sensations were rather weak meaning she probably still was in beta state. It is by no means conclusive evidence but though very interesting one which asks for some more experiments.

It needs to be said that on day one and day six I did draw the CKR on my palms before the treatment while all other days I didn't. It would be fair to say that I was “rushing” the treatment since I was very tired from my work.

It is my opinion (and it is probably influenced by my previous work with autogenic training and NP-2 software) that affirmation might work well if the person reaches alpha state and otherwise they seem not to make any impact.

Reiki mental treatment seems to be very effective in helping the person reach the alpha state. It is also worth noting that as in this little experiment, my wife didn't participate actively (didn't repeat the affirmation and as a matter of fact didn't know the affirmation but generally knew that it was designed for weight loss) I was doing it mentally.

Regards,

Resko

It seems to me that using an affirmation
during the deepest state of relaxation
is autosuggestion. I use that when doing
Prepare for Surgery with good results.

Sure Wayne,

Here is how it started:

I am wondering if Reiki can be used to help with weight loss?
Like hand positions?
or
any energy exercises etc,.?

( of course, I am exercising and *gulp* ....watching my diet )

( Yeah, got to knock off 10 lbs... fine, 15 lbs!)

If overweight is caused by a particular behaviorpattern e.g. overeating or lack of exercise then Reiki has just the thing!

What about trying this?

http://www.aetw.org/d_seiheiki.html

Most students are taught a version of this at level 2 - as Seiheki Chiryo Ho or Mental/Emotional Treatment or Habit Healing Method or Psychological Treatment.

Good luck!

This of course reminded me about this technique that I learned slightly different. Now I am very influenced by the work of German Psychiatrist Johannes Schultz (autogenic training) and I tried it out myself and I believe it it possible to change our limiting beliefs using this method.

It led me to learn even more so the NLP and neuroscience were next step ( I highly recommend book by Joe Dispenza “Evolve Your Brian”). Now when I read article “the science behind reiki (link posted by Wayne source: http://www.reikiteaching.co.uk/page10.html)

it re-confirmed what I had believed long ago so I thought that using the mental treatment should work just fine for I didn't doubt if affirmation works but rather if we can reach alpha state to make sure it is accepted and not rejected. So all pointed it was worth trying out. What the heck do I have to lose. Now knowing that my wife wanted to lose some weight (vacation season is coming) I recommended to try the technique out.

Since she is already 2nd level reiki student she accepted readily.

I wanted to test if affirmation would work if I mentally say it without her knowing entire affirmation (I though it would be very interesting :-))

As to the technique itself: the recipient sits (in our case we used the chair) and I would state the intent and (first and last day unfortunatelyonly) than I draw the CKR on both palms and let the energy field develop before I please my hands 1 inch or so away from back of the head (mmedulla obloganta area) I kept this position for about 5 minutes (only on day 1 and last day though) and than while holding one hand still in the previous position would move at side and draw the SHK at the top of the head and place that hand at the top of the head (7th chakra) in my case it was my right hand.

After the while when I felt the time was right I would mentally say the affirmation in 2nd person. This was done for about 10 minutes and I do not know how many times I repeated the affirmation (maybe 15-20 times).

Than I would move back behind and end the session.

Resko

You have put a lot of thought
into this technique

Yeah Resko, i like the technicial side of stuff, seeing if something works how it works. thanks for this detail!

I'm really glad you said what you did. And i think i can see why there could be a weight difference.

you used CKR & SHK. To 'speak' internally to your wife (use sub-conscious if you want). Where you placed your hands was vital to this experiment. You say chakras, that's cool, let me replace that with the endocrine system please for a sec. you had 2 hands doing Reiki at the back of head, on their own, it could be anatomically suggested pineal gland. But when you moved your hand up to the top, directly below the centre of the top of the head, in the middle of the head, is the hypothalamus. And the hypothalamus is what controls our body temperature. Now if we could somehow communicate with a persons hypothalamus, and make a request that the temp is slightly raised, this would create weight loss.

I ahve to make a point, in that Resko may have doen the technqiue, but ultimitely it was his wifes body, her hypothalamus that would have choose to do this. If this theory is right of course.

Real glad you shared this Resko, i never thought this way before, so you've really done me a huge service in letting me see new possible avenues.

warmest wishes
Wayne

Thank You Wayne,

Honestly, I probably never would have think of it the way you put. Many, many thanks.

Regards,

Resko

Reiki heals anything once a byosen is cured. With reiji-ho and intuition, and byosen reikan-ho (scanning) methods one can find the source of disease and treat it for long hours. Eventually you will feel the pounds coming off. Another worthy mention is the Hayashi manual's treatment for obesity:

"
2. Diabetes

1.liver 2. pancreas 3. heart 4. stomach 5. intestines 6. bladder 7. kidneys 8. head 9. spinal cord 10. blood exchange

4. Obesity (Adiposis)

The same as diabetes.

There are techniques found in several energy-disciplines which can alter one's metabolism (particularly adrenal and thyroid function) which will eventually result in weight loss, however if applied solely for this purpose, they will generally tend to throw the system further out of balance than it was initially.[/quote]


Hi Rlei_ki,

Could you elaborate on this please? I have just been diagnosed with hyperthyroidism....

I was curious what James [ Rlei_ki,]had
on his website [http://www.aetw.org]
about metabolism.This is what I came up
with........

SEIKI RYOHO
seiki
In 1928, Jozo Ishii of the seiki ryoho kenkyu jo (Seiki Treatment Institute / Research Establishment) published a small book entitled: "Essentials of Seiki Self-Healing Therapy".

Seiki can best be translated as "Vital Life-Force"

In the book, Jozo Ishii explains that
"seiki excites the nerves which have become exhausted and elicits a spontaneous reflexive movement in the body's muscular system" and in doing so resolves any disorders that may be present in the body.

He explains that through a regimen of daily taiso (specific exercises to stimulate and balance various physiological functions), seiki effectively wards off pain and illness.

"If the elderly make use of seiki" Ishii writes, "they will be revitalised and return to a state of good health".

He also maintains that, ultimately, seiki promotes and sustains longevity.

"Seiki stimulates any affected part of the body, triggering cellular activity in the particular area. This influence spreads throughout the surrounding areas, eventually stimulating all the cells of the body to action. The metabolism is fired, respiration is stirred to strong action, bloodflow is quickened and a balanced secretion (of bodily fluids) is activated. As a result, all stagnation within the body is flushed away. Seiki stimulates the nervous system. The nerves of the affected organs react, producing the physiological movements requisite for rehabilitation."

Do not begin a weight loss or exercise routine without first consulting a health care professional for advice. There are many health conditions that may contraindicate rapid weight loss programs or some of the other effective short-term weight loss strategies.
