Benefits of Reiki for Children and Teenagers
* Less likely to show signs of excitability and depression
* Improves concentration, enhances relaxation and sleep
* Calms and promotes balance, enhances self esteem
When using Reiki with children the session needs to be structured differently as their concentration span is much shorter, and as their channels are usually much clearer they generally need less time. Children are incredibly perceptive. They can pick up on changes within their environments and individuals very easily. If you are worrying, so are they.
NB : Before booking Reiki sessions for your child/ young adult, two important items need to be considered.
Healing will only take place if the child is happy to accept it. All children under 16 need to be accompanied by a parent or guardian during treatment. At no time are they to be left alone with a Reiki Practitioner. This complies with Reiki Federation Guidelines as well as insurance requirements and protects both the child and the Reiki Practitioner. Consent for a healing session is needed by both parent/guardian and child. I find it reassures both parent and young adult, enabling a bond to be built upon between yourself and your child. You both have the opportunity to see exactly what a treatment entails. Children are extremely sensitive to the atmosphere and can frequently amaze you by their accurate reading of the energies that eddy around them. One would often find a child becoming restless and fearful when someone in the room is agitated or angry. Children do not hesitate to call some one "bad" when they sense the negative energy in them. They react positively to those who love them and turn away from those who do not like children or are uneasy with them. When they enter in a « Reiki clinic », they immediately sense the positive loving energy that is prevalent there and react favorably to it. They relax and are willing to explore with you this feeling of peacefulness that is generated, Giving Reiki treatment to a child has a very different feel from giving Reiki to an adult. The energy body of a healthy child is more attuned to the physical body and one can feel the energy going through the entire body in one sweep. Children who are ill or may have mentally imbalanced diagnosis feel more comfortable and relaxed.
