Karuna Reiki Healing is a type of energy healing that is based on the principles of Usui Reiki but with additional symbols and techniques. Karuna Reiki was developed by William Rand, who is also the founder of the International Center for Reiki Training.
The word "karuna" is a Sanskrit word that means "compassion," and this is a central theme of the practice. Karuna Reiki is said to work on a deeper level than traditional Usui Reiki, and it is believed to be particularly effective for healing emotional and psychological issues.
During a Karuna Reiki session, the practitioner will use specific symbols and techniques to channel healing energy to the client. This energy is said to help release blockages and promote a sense of calm, relaxation, and well-being. The practitioner may also use hands-on or hands-off techniques, depending on the client's preference and comfort level.
Karuna Reiki Healing is typically taught through a series of classes or workshops, and practitioners may receive attunements or initiations to help them connect more deeply with the healing energy. It is important to note that Karuna Reiki, like all forms of energy healing, is considered complementary to conventional medical treatments and should not be used as a substitute for professional medical advice or treatment.
