Reiki your seven Chakras every day for balance, harmony and vitality
‘Chakras are energy centers and serve as gateways for the flow of energy and life in to the physical body. Each chakra is associated with the glands and organs in that part of the body. They react and respond to energy and vibration. The energy flow of the chakras can be in disharmony as result of imbalance or stress in the emotional, mental or spiritual aspect of an individual. This disharmony can eventually cause physical illness.
The chakras will be individually balanced by placing your hand on the energy center/chakra. This will bring about a release of the blocked energy and a harmonizing effect takes place”.
‘Practical Reiki’ Marie Hall Reiki Teacher ‘97
Balance your Chakras with Reiki self treatments

How to make Reiki Chakra Balancing self-treatments a part of your daily routine
Always get yourself comfortable first – it’s the first rule of giving yourself or another Reiki
The simplest and easiest way to give yourself Reiki is lying down (beds are gooood), with some cushions or pillows to support your head and arms.
Be generous to yourself … consistency’s the answer
Giving yourself a daily Reiki treatment may be new for you. As with any new habit or practice, it’s easiest to get the full benefits by doing your Chakra Balancing Reiki treatment first thing in the morning or at night before you go to sleep.
When’s the best time for you?
- It is always best done either first thing in the morning before rising so you receive the benefits all day
- Last things at night, a Reiki chakra balance relieves the stresses of the day and enhances deep sleep and rest
- Reiki takes you into alpha and beta states of deep relaxation which are similar to certain states of meditation and sleep.
If you wake in the night and cannot sleep, now is the time to give yourself a Reiki Chakra Balancing Treatment. Even if tired, you will still handle your day efficiently and effectively, rather than be hampered by fatigue and poor decisions
‘A little bit of Reiki is always better than none’ - Mrs Hawayo Takata
Now you are comfortable, let’s get started with your 7 Chakras
Using ‘stepping hands’ to every new hand position and checking in with your digital clock,
1: Place both hands on your crown or 7th(crown) chakra and give yourself Reiki for 1-3 minutes
NB: If you are a Second Degree+ practitioner, you can add your symbols to each chakra hand position … this empowers and strengthens your Reiki and accelerates results for you.
2: Moving one hand at a time (‘stepping hands’) to the 6th (3rd eye chakra) chakra, give yourself Reiki here for 1-3+ minutes – adjust your hands, relax your shoulders and elbows to stay comfortable
3: Moving one hand at a time (‘stepping hands’) to the 5th (throat) chakra, give yourself Reiki here for 1-3+ minutes – adjust your hands, relax your shoulders and elbows to stay comfortable
4: Moving one hand at a time (‘stepping hands’) to the 4th (heart) chakra, give yourself Reiki here for 1-3+ minutes – adjust your hands, relax your shoulders and elbows to stay comfortable
5: Moving one hand at a time (‘stepping hands’) to the 3rd chakra (2 fingers below your belly-button, called the ‘Hara’ in martial arts), give yourself Reiki here for 1-3+ minutes – adjust your hands, relax your shoulders and elbows to stay comfortable
6: Moving one hand at a time (‘stepping hands’) to the 2nd (sacral) chakra, give yourself Reiki here for 1-3+ minutes – adjust your hands, relax your shoulders and elbows to stay comfortable
7: Moving one hand at a time (‘stepping hands’) to the 1st chakra, give yourself Reiki here for 1-3+ minutes – adjust your hands, relax your shoulders and elbows to stay comfortable.
You can reverse the order you give Reiki to your 7 Chakras in, starting at the 1st chakra and finishing at the last. You decide what works best for you.
Enjoy!
Give yourself the gift of deep peace and calm with every Reiki self-treatment
