Big Blog Directory: Reiki Healing-Remote Healings

Big Blog Directory: Reiki Healing-Remote Healings

Remote Healings - Once the root cause (the emotional energy blockage) of pain is found in an individual and the energy blockage is removed (via a Laser Reiki Master healer), ...next a higher Source energy is applied. The body can now restore health and well-being because the low energy is removed and a higher energy is established. (The higher energy is considered from god the highest universal source of all.)

This is alternate healing, energy medicine, energy healing -- a new part of the health field

Remote Healing - Long Distance Healing

How do remote healings work?

We are energy healers... which means that we are able to transfer a higher vibrational energy to those with pain, sickness or distress.
  • Health, wellness and prosperity are high vibrations of energy.
  • Sickness, pain and sadness are low vibrations of energy.
  • Neck pain, shoulder pain, elbow pain, foot pain, leg pain, knee pain, headache, etc. are symptoms of the body telling you that something is wrong. We test these areas through remote energy field testing and fined that a persons energy is low.

We connect with the person's Life Manager part of their subconscious mind and clear energy blockages at the physical, emotional, mental, psychological, psychic, genetic, spiritual and other levels.

We are looking for energy blockages which also may be called: negative energy, dark energy, implants, aberrations, dogmas, hexes, curses, etc. ...and we remove them. We next add good energy and the body can then heal itself.

  • Do you want to cover up the pain or do you want it fixed?

What do doctors do?

  1. Doctors give you a pain pill or some other medication to dull your sensors for pain. Sometimes they can make the pain go away. Other times the pills do not work or they cause chemical side effects that further damage the body, mind, or soul.
  2. Doctors may cover up the symptoms but they usually don't try to discover the root cause of the pain. They are too busy. They are not trained in energy healing at the AMA medical schools. They may think that "energy healing" is woo woo!
  3. Psychiatrist do not have the tools to discover the root cause of the mental, emotional or physical distress, depression or sadness. They listen to your problems for a fee and may suggest a prescription drug to reduce (cover up the cause) of the pain or depression.
  4. We bless the health professionals because they are doing what they were trained to do. They are doing the best they can in the short time they have available. They are NOT trained in preventing disease, only in cutting, covering of symptoms and pushing pharmaceutical drugs.

Frozen Shoulder and Neck Pain... Caused by Stress?

City worker with frozen shoulder and neck pain gets relief!

How can an energy healing help Dave’s frozen shoulder and neck pain?

One day Roi and I were giving a free Reiki presentation and energy healings to a group of 30 people in Olympia, WA.

After explaining to the group, "How Reiki could heal pain …and sometimes Instantly heal pain," we asked, "Does anyone in the audience have pain?"
Over half the audience raised their hands. (It was too Many! We needed to narrow it down to a few individuals.)

We then asked the group, "Who in this room is in the worst pain – on a scale of 1 to 10, who is an 8, 9 or 10?"

A fellow who had a medical retirement from city employment because of injuries and neck pain came to the front of the room. This man had a painful frozen shoulder and neck. He had been operated on once, but surgery did not help in any way. He'd had this pain and neck condition for two years.

Dave had the perfect job before he got sick. He was a city employee by night and a national shuffle board player by day; he had the free time to pursue his second profession -- until he got hurt. Now he could no longer work at his night job nor play shuffleboard.

We performed a short Energy Healing before the audience:

Finding the root cause of the problem is first order of business! We discovered that Dave had stress, anxiety and tension from life stored in his painful shoulders and it also caused neck pain. We helped him remove those emotions from the body tissue and he got well in two weeks! He recovered full neck movement and the pain was healed. Thank you, God!

Do you have neck pain? Think about an emotional issue that can get stuck in the body tissue.

The issue may be a blockage. It wants to be released and recognized.

How does the body get our attention? (It causes pain in a certain spot.)

Could your problem have started out with stress?

Let's hear from you!

Do You Have Lower Back Pain?

How bad is your lower back pain? (Or do you know somebody with back pain?)

Does your back hurt just sometimes or all the time?

MY STORY: I had back pain for 30 years. (Ouch! That’s a long time!) I hurt my back while working on the farm in Arkansas with my dad.

I've found that energy blockages are hiding under all pain, back pain, headaches, depression, sickness, i.e. I didn't get an instant healing, because finding out the real cause took many years and I went down many different healing paths. Some helped more than others.

My life has been on purpose because my experiences have taught me the necessary lessons. I am grateful for my lessons and hidden secrets I discovered. Now I can share and help others. I bless my successes just as I bless the hardships. I bless it all!

Lots of Reiki Masters and almost all Energy Healers agree: "All diseases are universally caused by energy blockages and low energy flow."

You might ask: "What is an energy blockage?" It is an unresolved emotion that is not expressed fully and it has gotten stuck in the body tissue. These emotions creates a blockage -- like a little dam. Energy can't flow through that area. Over time an inflammation of tissue or tumor can form.

When healing a sick person, their body needs a minimum flow of energy ...otherwise the Reiki treatment will not be as effective. For a successful energy healing, the body needs a high flow of energy. Sick people do not have a high flow of energy -- that's one reason they are sick or in the condition called dis-ease. They have energy blockages and therefore a low frequency of energy and a low flow.

I had emotional energy blockages stuck in my lower back and I spent years running around from healer to chiropractor to doctor looking for pain relief.

I finally found out that "I was trying to be good enough and work hard enough to be liked by my dad!" That fear (of not being liked by daddy) was a stuck pattern of negative energy.

The emotions of "...fear of not being good enough" or not being liked by dad stopped my body from healing. (I consciously didn't know I felt that way. Those stressful feelings were in my subconscious mind. The mind needs to be "defragged" -- just like your computer.)

You may have "junk mind programs" holding you back from a complete recovery, just as I had.

The lower back pain went on for years and years -- no matter what I tried or did.

Now, my back pain is 99% cured! Although I'm not as strong as a horse, I can work all-day and then some more. I can out-work most younger people

What caused the healing of my lower back?

In the energy healing school at the ReikiRanch near Chehalis, WA, it is taught that energy clearings can help all sickness.

Bad energy can be cleared and a new higher-lighter energy can be applied. The person feels better, and is happier! The pain is released and the body heals.

This simple process is called a Laser Reiki Healing.

It worked for me... It may work for you, too!

What do you think?

Could an emotion be stuck under your back pain?

Pain relief for Neck Pain, Shoulder Pain, Back Pain


Have Pain? Tried everything else for pain relief?

Are you willing to go beyond the physical reality in finding the reasons for for Neck Pain, Shoulder Pain, and/or Back Pain?

The root cause for Pain relief has been covered up by over-the- counter pain pills and prescription drugs for many years... So, the pain is covered up and you may not stop and think: "What message is the body trying to give me?"

Our findings at the Reiki Ranch Healing School is that there are deeper levels of energy healing that goes beyond traditional healing methods. After doing Reiki healing work for 6 years we discovered the hidden side of Reiki in 1993. We have taught this very ancient form of energy healing since 1994. More of these ancient instant pain release healing secrets are constantly being revealed to the founders of Laser Reiki and its students and practitioners.

Those who have experienced this instant pain release method agree: "It's quicker, more thorough and longer lasting than other forms of energy work!"

Classes and Remote healings are available. If you live in Washington State or Oregon you can easily drive to the Reiki Ranch for a class or to receive a personal Laser Reiki energy healing. (Laser Reiki energy healings are considered 10X faster that other energy healings.)

Long distance or Remote healings can be delivered to any person and to any place in the world at any time of the day you choose. We simply need your permission to send your healing and how your local time relates to ours. We are located in the Pacific northwest of the United States.
Long distance healings can be felt in real time. You could schedule it to arrive at 4:00 AM while you are asleep. You will wake up more refreshed and energized. This type of energy healing is placed into the "energy body" (it is like your aura -- it is a field of energy that surrounds the physical body) and gently come into the physical for the next three days.

Schedule an appointment or ask a question to the founders?

Find "The Secret" to Happiness!

Everybody is looking for the secret to living a more joyful life.

Do you have pain? Is it physical pain? Or do you have emotional pain?

Do you desire money? A better relationship?

"I think we all have some kind of pain!" says Roi Halse, "We have the feelings of not being good enough -- or we think we have sinned or something."

I've found a way to connect to Source energy and feel good again! It's like being "born again!" But it is not judgemental or religious. It is very wholesome and allowing...

What do you think "The Secret" is?
(Is it tripling your home based income, finding your perfect mate, or just celebrating the wonder of life?)

We want to hear from you!

Reiki for Abundance -Manifesting Airline Passage

Practice manifesting your desires when you really want something to happen.

Have you ever had the sickening feeling that you’ve missed your airplane flight? Here’s a great personal story that illustrates the power of manifesting using Reiki for Abundance.

I’m in the Republic of Panama at Tocumen airport terminal. My bags have been checked curbside, and my daughter has driven away. I find out that my flight was yesterday! You’re sure it’s not today? Today’s Houston flight is overbooked, and the lines are full. What a mess!
What can I do? I can’t go back to my daughter’s house, because this is the first weekend in her adult life free of kids and husband. My cousin Holly is waiting for me in Houston. And in two days, in San Antonio, I have a radio interview and demonstration on Instant Pain and Depression Relief.

I am going to Houston! There are no other options. I have to be there. With my skills in consciousness and energy, manifesting, Laser Reiki, and Cosmic Energetic Healing, manifesting a desirable outcome from this mess should be easy. Now, . . . in my mind I see Holly smiling and waving at me as she meets me at the airport . . . And I am two steps on my way to Houston!

I interrupt the story to show you that, here, we see the first steps to manifestation.

The Steps to Manifestation of Your Desire
The Steps -- As illustrated in this story

1. Decide upon a desired outcome.
I’m going to Houston, TODAY!

2. Visualize it; see it as an accomplished fact.
I see Holly picking me up at Houston International Airport

3. Be grateful for the desired outcome.
Thank you, God, for helping me realize that you have already taken care of my arrival in Houston today, even beyond my wildest imagination!
4. Celebrate
It has all worked out; it’s a done deal. Yaaaayyyy!

Now let’s return to the story . . .

My manifestation list is ready, and I’ve done the first two steps.
I just need to keep from thinking of things that I don’t want to have happen. Or dwelling on the circumstances that “made” me miss the flight.“How stupid I was to arrive at the airport a day late.”

All is in Divine Order! No matter what it looks like at the moment. There is no point in worrying and fretting. Those useless thoughts will keep me upset, and ruin my manifestation. Reiki for Abundance.

Once the manifestation goes out, do not think about it. And especially do not think about the worst that might happen. In this case, going back and ruining my daughter’s free weekend, paying $1,200 for a one-way ticket to Houston, and missing my radio interview in San Antonio. If you think about the negative aspects, you cancel out all the good work you’ve done in manifesting. (Don't think about this...)

To keep my mind off negative thoughts, I reach into my pocket for the photo of my young granddaughter. She is quite a beauty, and a capable Reiki Master at just age six. Looking at that picture gives me great pleasure. I found it in my daughter’s car while we were on the way to the airport. She had recently replaced photos in her wallet with new ones, and this picture was right there waiting for me on the seat. (The photo is a tool to remind me of joy.)


In my purse I have a small book, “Silent Power,” by Stewart Wilde. Reading is a good way to keep the mind busy. Now, I’ve been in the airport for an hour -- it’s time to reaffirm my manifestation. This time I asked my angels for help.

I reaffirm my request and add:

  • I will get to Houston without having to pay any extra money.
  • And -- I will fly FIRST CLASS!
    Well, why not? Why settle for only getting to Houston? Let's travel in grand style. Life is an illusion. I told myself, “Why not have a FIRST CLASS illusion?”
    I’m figuring that this is all a set-up by my spiritual guides to test me. Will I walk my talk? Or will I crumble under pressure?

Reading the words in a book and manifesting your desires in the third dimension are two different things. Add the pressure of a real life emergency to the situation and the emotions boil – unless you step back and look at the situation from outside the emotions. Manifesting is a mechanical process if you have all the steps!

I teach manifestation, but I’ve never done it under pressure. I pulled out the emotions of fear and worry from my psyche and replaced them with peace using Laser Reiki techniques.

  1. I see myself flying First Class,
  2. I am feeling the joy
  3. I am imagining that I’m on the plane
  4. I am relaxing knowing that all is my angels’ hands. I’m home free.

The airport line is thinning. Only the problem flyers, like me, are still here. I get shuffled from counter to counter. When I’m threatened with having to pay extra, I tell the agent, “I don’t want to do that. See what you can work out.” Finally, an agent asks if I would fly to Newark, New Jersey, and then hop a flight to Houston later in the evening. “Okay!” I cheerfully respond.
After five minutes of paperwork, I’m off to the gate. I’m the last passenger to board, and the flight attendant says I can sit in First Class (Thank you, God!) because there are two empty seats there.

The businessman sitting next to me is pleasant, and we begin to talk about Panama. He asks if I know his friend – she’s from Oklahoma. I don’t know anyone from Oklahoma, but who is it? Annie Cisneros. My very best friend during the twenty years I lived in Panama! We lost contact after I moved to the States. While I was visiting my daughter and her family, I tried, futilely, to find an address or phone number for Annie. My seatmate had dated her daughter for years. We exchange lots of stories about Annie and her children. Like me, Annie is from Arkansas. If I hadn’t asked for the name, the conversation would have ended.

Be present in the moment and open at all times to what the Universe is presenting to you. Or you might miss an important lesson.

The trip to Newark, NJ was great; the hours passed in no time. Thank you God, for the extra bonuses of flying first class at no extra charge and finding out about my friend Annie! I arrived in Houston late at night, my manifestation was complete.

I used Reiki for Abundance.

Life is great if you constantly thank the Source for all its opportunities!

Sometimes opportunities look like troubles.

Just keep thanking God anyway. It worked for me! And it will work for you.

Reiki Blog -What Is Reiki?

What Is Reiki? Reiki Blog

Reiki is simply the laying-on-of-hands healing and is pronounced ray-key. Reiki is a spiritual healing technique which involves, but is not limited to, the laying on of hands. It was rediscovered in the late 1800s by Dr. Mikao Usui in Japan, and is thought to have originated thousands of years ago. A very simple, yet powerful healing art, you can use it on yourself as well as on others. You can easily learn how to do it.

Even children are inclined toward Reiki and use it to help them cope with the outside world. No previous knowledge or training is required to attend a workshop. Free Reiki I workshop is available if you bring a friend (also free.)

Reiki is derived from two Japanese words:
rei - meaning soul or spirit
ki - meaning life force energy

Reiki is easy to learn and use. Reiki is Universal energy that seems to have its own consciousness (it follows Universal Law), and is able to provide exactly what is needed on all levels. Traditionally, Reiki has been taught in three degrees or levels. A specific attunement for each degree of training is passed down from master to student. To become a Reiki 1, 2, 3, or beyond, the practitioner receives attunements from a Reiki master in person. (It is possible for a master to send the attunements over a distance to the student.)

The teachings and attunements are passed down from master to student in a series of classes or workshops. Reiki Blogs are educational. Reiki is a simple Universal (God Force) energy with healing techniques used by age-old masters. Respect the healing energy because it is coming directly from the Universal energy currents. Acknowledge the sacredness of learning this information. The attunements will enhance inborn abilities and enable students to pass Reiki energy along to others.

Reiki is beyond all our human divisions. It is neither cult, nor religion, nor belief system. Even though Reiki is not a religion, it is spiritual in nature and connects you to the Source Energy that most people call God or the Universe. Besides the obvious use in serious illness, Reiki actively promotes the healing process in many other ways. It acts not only on physical levels, but also addresses mental, emotional, psychological, genetic, and energetic imbalances.

Reiki is entirely compatible with other therapies, healing modalities, and treat-ments. Many nurses and other health caregivers are adding Reiki to their skills. At one time becoming a First Degree practitioner required years of study. Becoming a Second Degree Reiki practitioner took even more years. The training for Reiki master was limited to only a handful of people who may have studied and worked a lifetime (or lifetimes) before reaching this level.

Reiki 1 increases the flow of energy into an individual. Your ability to flow healing energy will increase up to 20% with each attunement to Reiki. Down through history the normal flow of energy was closed down.

Historically and genetically speaking, people who appeared to have special abilities during the ages of persecution were harmed in some way. Remember reading about the burning of witches? This knowledge that flowing a large current of Source Energy would be dangerous to your health because of the punishments received in ancient times may have caused the subconscious mind to close you down in this life. The tendency to protect you may also have been carried over from a past life experience into your present life. There may be others reasons to explain why you may not be flowing the necessary energy to heal others. For example, your family does not approve or understand.

You are hard-wired to flow Source Energy just like a computer’s hard drive is wired to run Windows and other software programs.

The Reiki attunements open your natural flow of energy again-most of you need to release those energy blockages. When you come into your bodies, you inherit a batch of genetic fears and feelings brought down from many generations. Plus, you bring along your own set of emotional handicaps from other lives. Reiki healings available at school in person or by phone. When small children fall down and hurt their knees, what is the first thing they do besides cry? They will put their hands over the hurt place. Your hands have healing vortexes of Source Energy already coming out in times of need. We all know this at a deep level. We were born to do this work.

The laying-on-of-hands is one of our natural abilities as humans-not a special gift. You may find that you were punished in a past life for healing or teaching spiritual principles. Many students are finding this to be true, and this can be cleared. It is especially easy to clear this with Laser Reiki and Cosmic Energetic Healing (Advanced Levels of your Reiki training).

Others feared their healing power ...never realizing that it is a natural and spiritual birthright ability. Spiritual power is not supernatural-it is one of your natural abilities. Accept this!

Depression Drugs vs No Drugs for neck pain

I agree with those who say: "No drug is usually better than to be drugged. And this is a great place to share what works!" Yes, please share your story!

I have found that energy blockages can cause depression. I've also found energetic demons in people. We heal the demons and remove them. We use angels to help.

I’m an energy healer. I worked with a lady dog handler who had a frozen shoulder and neck. Every time the dog pulled on the leash it hurt her arm, shoulder and neck. She had been operated on but it just caused more trauma and scar tissue in the area. She'd had this neck pain, depression, and condition for five years and it was steadily getting worse. She was to the point she could bear the pain when exhibiting her champion poodles at a show. She suffered depression and so did her husband. They both got on drugs and were going downhill.

She had stress, anxiety, trauma and tension from life stored in her tissue and it caused neck, shoulder and arm pain. We helped her remove those emotions from the physical, mental and psychic levels of existence. She felt immediately better and recover 60% more movement in her arms without any pain! Thank you, God!

Depression to wellness is good! ...and especially good without drugs!

Most drugs have terrible side effects! Be careful. (Drugs have skull and cross bones on the big jars. It is only when they are put in the small pill bottles that they are supposed to good for your body. Think about this!) When you are connected to higher source energy you feel a natural high! A Reiki healing and/or Reiki Attunement gives you a natural high feeling.

Please share what works for you!

Back Pain Was Healed Without Surgery

Lower Back Pain is running wild.

Maria from Tacoma, had just graduated from a 4-day Laser Reiki basic workshop where the first four levels of this ancient healing method are taught at the Reiki Ranch, just 9 miles outside of Chehalis, WA. A few days after arriving back home Maria found out that her uncle who had been in a wheel chair was slated for a lower back operation. His vertebrae were to be fused. He also had neck pain and that also improved with energy healing techniques.

She only had a few weeks to practice her new Laser Reiki energy healing methods on Tom. She cleared dozens of energy blockages and a applied a new higher-lighter beam of Source energy to uncle Tom's lower back pain and problem. He began to feel better, and was much happier!

The day before the operation she called in her master teachers in spirit to assist the final stage of healing the lower back pain of degenerated disks.

The next day Tom was x-rayed at the hospital and he showed such improvement that the operation was postponed. Three weeks later Tom no longer needed the wheel chair nor the back surgery.

He was pain free -- neck and lower back! Hurray!
