Reiki Affirmations

In Reiki daily practice we sit in Gassho and make daily affirmations for our day ahead.

What does this all mean?

Gassho is a word of eastern origin which means placing the hands together, palms together and fingers straight and held in front of the heart.

You can leave a small gap between your palms and concentrate on the energy and warmth there. This is Reiki energy. We all have it. Reiki energy is universal source energy and therefore not owned by reiki masters and practitioners, or anyone else.

The Reiki affirmations commonly applied when learning Reiki are as follows.

Just for today I will be without worry.

Just for today I will be without anger.

Just for today I will be grateful.

Just for today I will do my work honestly.

Just for today I will be kind to every living being.

Most of those lines are self explanatory but each line should be said with thought.

If you have been worried or angry about something, when you say these lines, do not simply recite them; make a conscious decision to let them go.

Doing your work honestly includes more than your salaried work! It is about being present and mindful in all that you do. Therefore a very strong intention to affirm and very good for your wellbeing and positive mental health.

Being kind to all living beings also includes your self! In truth, to be your best for others you first need to keep yourself tiptop through self care and kindness. You cannot give from an empty cup; your cup should be overfilled and then there is plenty to give from your saucer.

Gratitude: life can be tough at times but there are always those who have it worse and whem we stop and think about it we all have people and things to be grateful for. Being in gratitude raises your energetic vibration which in turn attracts more positive energy to you.

I hope you can see therefore that there is very purposeful meaning to these reiki affirmations and that starting the day with these five simple affirmations covers all bases to start your day off right and awaken that positive energy within, when recited with intention.

Even if you dont want to learn too much about Reiki I would encourage you to use these affirmations to start your day. They can only bring about increased positivity and higher energetic vibrations. Used daily your life can improve.
