Welcome to the 2008 Reiki Alphabet Challenge!!! Its great to have you here!!! This challenge is designed to give you something new to Reiki every day by giving you a new letter to focus on each day. Hopefully, by the end of the challenge you will have Reikied things you hadn’t considered before and thereby increased the boundaries of your Reiki world. So let’s get started…

Today’s letter is “E” and our focus is on Entrainment.

Basically, the way Reiki energy works, is that it vibrates at a very high frequency and causes the things that it comes in contact with to vibrate at the same high frequency, thereby enabling them to break through energetic blocks that are interfering with the natural state of good health. The denser the block is, the more stubborn it appears, and the longer it takes for Reiki to break through.

The way entrainment works is simple. Imagine a room with two guitars. If you pluck the E String (top string) on one guitar, the E String on the unattended guitar on the other side of the room will start to vibrate. That is entrainment. This happens because atoms have a natural tendency towards more excited states, which basically means that they just love to dance. Generally speaking, diseased energy vibrates more slowly than its healthy counterpart, which means it has a lower frequency, and so when Reiki’s Ultra Higher Frequencies comes into contact with these slower (diseased or blocked) energies, the influence of the Reiki energy causes the slower atoms to vibrate at a higher frequency simply because they are entraining to the Reiki energy. Simple, eh?

I have found that focusing on this entrainment process, it actually speeds it up. Your attention to it actually adds more energy to it, which has tremendous influence in and of itself. So, your Reiki Alphabet Challenge for today, is to perform any Reiki healing you like, either live or distance, on yourself or someone/something else, and as you do imagine you can sense the entrainment happening. Using whichever sensory modality is easiest for you (auditory, visual or kinesthetic) visualize this happening. Actually, visual people will be more inclined to visualizations, while auditory people would actually tend to hear the vibrations (like in the guitar string example) while kinesthetic people would most likely feel the buzz. Just follow whichever is most natural for you.

If you find this entrainment enhancing exercise to your liking, feel free to make it a part of your regular Reiki practice… it’s certainly worked well for me!
