Welcome to Reiki 308, my name is Keli Becker, I am a Master Reiki Practitioner. My mission I am being guided on is to introduce energy balancing to Rural Nebraska. I have been practicing reiki since 2017, where I received my level 1&2 attunement from the Holistic Art Institute. I then went on to get my Master/Teacher online. I currently work at Harlan County Health Systems as the physical therapy receptionist. This site is to introduce energy balancing and its benefits.

What is Energy Balancing
Energy balancing is a concept often associated with holistic or alternative healing practices. It involves restoring balance to the flow of energy within a person’s body to promote physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. The idea is that energy imbalances or blockages can lead to discomfort or illness, and by addressing these, one can enhance overall health and harmony.
Techniques for energy balancing may include:
- Reiki: A Japanese healing technique where practitioners channel energy through their hands to promote relaxation and healing.
- Acupuncture or Acupressure: In traditional Chinese medicine, these methods target specific points in the body to regulate energy flow (often referred to as “Qi” or “Chi”).
- Chakra Balancing: Based on the belief in energy centers within the body, practitioners aim to align and balance these chakras.
- Meditation and Breathing Exercises: These practices help to calm the mind and regulate the body’s energy systems.
- Sound Healing or Crystal Therapy: Using vibrations or specific tools to create a sense of balance and harmony.
While energy balancing can be deeply meaningful for some, it is often viewed as complementary to conventional medical treatments rather than a replacement.
Deeper Look at Reiki
Let’s explore how Reiki intertwines with chakras, techniques, and its rising role in modern healthcare.
Reiki and Chakras:
Reiki aligns perfectly with the concept of chakras, which are energy centers in the body. Each chakra corresponds to specific emotions, physical functions, and spiritual aspects:
- Crown Chakra (Sahasrara): Enhances spiritual connection and enlightenment.
- Third Eye Chakra (Ajna): Focuses on intuition and mental clarity.
- Throat Chakra (Vishuddha): Governs self-expression and communication.
- Heart Chakra (Anahata): Balances love, compassion, and emotional well-being.
- Solar Plexus Chakra (Manipura): Drives confidence, willpower, and personal power.
- Sacral Chakra (Svadhisthana): Connects to creativity and emotional fluidity.
- Root Chakra (Muladhara): Grounds security and survival instincts.
During a Reiki session, practitioners channel energy into these chakras, helping to clear blockages and restore balance. For example, someone experiencing anxiety may have imbalances in their Solar Plexus, Heart, or Root Chakras.
Reiki Techniques:
- Byosen Scanning: Sensing imbalances by hovering hands over the body to detect energy disruptions.
- Hand Positions: Specific placements, such as on the crown, shoulders, or stomach, to focus healing energy.
- Distant Reiki: Using symbols to send healing across time and space—a fascinating practice that works even when the client isn’t present.
- Crystal Integration: Amplifying healing by incorporating crystals, as you’ve explored, adds a dimension of focus and vibrational energy.
Reiki in Healthcare:
Reiki’s influence is growing in medical settings, as it complements conventional treatments:
- Pain Management: Hospitals integrate Reiki into physical therapy to alleviate chronic pain and improve recovery.
- Mental Health: Reduces symptoms of anxiety, stress, and depression by promoting relaxation.
- Cancer Care: Used alongside traditional treatments to relieve side effects like nausea and fatigue.
- Hospice and Palliative Care: Provides comfort and emotional support to patients and families.
Some institutions in the U.S., like Hartford Hospital and M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, already incorporates Reiki as part of their patient care programs. 🌈✨
