Some claim that what they love most about Reiki is that “it has no side effects and causes no harm”. As a former Reiki practitioner I can tell you that this is far away from the truth. Using Reiki as a form of alternative healing is not so great and innocent as I was led to believe.
Article last updated: Feb 2020
Reiki practitioners are taught certain symbols (which are actually summoning certain forces) and are led to believe that they need to open themselves and become a channel for ‘some powerful universal energy’ that resides outside them, and then direct this channel to their clients for healing purposes.
What happens during Reiki healing session?
When you receive the treatment of Reiki the cause for your ailment has not been addressed and it will come back again, in one form or another. You end up learning nothing from such a temporary healing, and you’re likely to spend more money on another temporary healing when the unaddressed cause manifests in another unwelcome form.
Symbols that are used in Reiki open inter-dimensional doors and if you are a Reiki practitioner you have been hooked into powerful forces that are now working through you and are having an access through you to your clients. And these forces have their own agenda. And no, it is not a healing one. Healing is ‘just a candy’ that you have been given in order to have let yourself to step into it.
Reiki is not without “side effects”.
Every time we make an agreement with something outside us, we give a part of our power away.

I’ve only had one Reiki session
In the recent years Reiki has become pretty popular and it has starter to be implanted even in hospitals and hospice care centres. You may not be a Reiki practitioner but there are hight chances that you have at some point received Reiki treatment. And yes, it may have been a very relaxing experience and it may have even helped you a lot. But be assured that, since you’ve made an agreement with your Reiki practitioner, during your session you have been hooked to certain outside forces that had the access to your practitioner.
So… you’d like to heal your life and feel empowered?
If you want to become healthy, free and empowered, you need to start looking into therapies that empower you.
And no, I am not proposing you to go for an ayahuasca retreat or to take any psychotropic substance, no matter how natural they are. They fall in the same disempowering activities. It is much more complex topic to be explained and go into details here, but let me just say that everything we need is inside us.
The main point is: we either go within or we go without. More that we ‘bring in’ more disempowered we become. And more we are without.
I’ve been initiated in Reiki… what now?
Every agreement or agreement of entrapment that you have made is valid for ever … until you decide to brake it..
Yes, during Reiki initiations you have made agreements with “outside forces” that have so conveniently (for them) fooled you to let them in. You might have even perceived them during your process, but was led to believe that, oh yes, it was really that beautiful angel wrapping their wings around you that you were feeling.
Well, what you have NOT been told was the truth about what was really happening during your initiation. The vast majority of Reiki practitioners that perform initiations are not aware of this (or they don’t want to be!), and some are. And even if they are, for some strange reason they still choose to perform them. My guess would be that they keep on with it because they must feel that they’ve had invested so much into their names and their businesses that are reluctant to tel the truth and be in risk of maybe loosing it all.
So… what you need to do is to ‘go back in time’ and break those agreements on all levels and all dimensions, and take out the forces that got the access into your field.
Take control and transform your life
Maybe you are one of those individuals that no matter what prefers the truth. If so, you may very well be at the point that you have decided to take control, heal your issues, transform your life.
And for that you don’t need any initiation in Reiki. And you better stay away from Reiki sessions. This advice comes from someone that has received her first level of Reiki more than twenty years ago.
The Energy that Is an Creates everything is part of you, remember?
We humans seam to be very determined to search for answers outside ourselves. There’s always something better, there’s always something more powerful outside us.
Why don’t you just reach inside yourself and connect to what is already yours?
Yes, it is so simple as that.
Put your attention to your palms and start experimenting it.
By the way, it’s not just about your palms ;)

I find it interesting that the author of this article condones an aboriginal form of healing (again not Catholic) which describes the same exact beliefs and process as Reiki (not Catholic practice). Hmmm. I feel that while both practices have great value for the receiver, the thing that matters most is the Truth (as the author states).
The truth is that both practices ask the receiver to accept certain beliefs of that practice, thereby opening themselves to either the aboriginal or Japanese sense of healing reality. Therefore the only reality or truth of the receiver is to ascertain the authenticity of the intentions of the practitioner, the power of prayer and the practitioner’s experience with healing, protective prayer and their legitimate understanding of energy, personal will and the nature of divine healing. Although I personally am fascinated by Holographic Kinetics and would like to learn more, I can’t say the linked description of it is very different than Reiki.
Thank you for your opinion Jackie.
I am however puzzled that you’re making claims about “an aboriginal form of healing” without ever studying it and getting an understanding and comprehension of what Holographic Kinetics is really about and what it is based on.
I wonder what makes you believe that Reiki and Holographic Kinetics have “the same exact beliefs and process” without ever learning the latter?
I guess that Holographic Kinetics and Reiki might seem similar to someone who have not studied them both and haven’t worked with both of them.
I have and I talk from my experience.
Reiki works with certain “outside forces”, inviting them inside the field of the client (and the practitioner) through symbols and visualisations (and initialisations). Any “force” that wants to gain the access to our being will want that for the purpose of being able to manipulate and use us (the host) for their own agenda. We let them in and voila, here it goes and agreement. Any agreement we make is there for eternity, or until we brake it.
Let me put this differently. If you’d leave the doors to your house open you will get all sorts of visitors, and some of them will not want to leave and will do anything possible to take over your house. Even convince you that it’s not your house and you have no power over it.
In turn, any benevolent force will stay as an observer of the game and will never want to enter the field of another though agreements or agreements of entrapment, Reason? These ‘forces’ are all very much aware of what most of us haven’t got a clue: there are Universal laws – the laws of Lore – and one of them states that “he who enters the game of another becomes subject of the laws of that game”.
Holographic Kinetics assist the client and their Spirit to clear the original cause of any issue the client is experiencing. It does not invite any external force inside the field of the client and it does not open inter dimensional doors and make agreements of any kind with the outside forces, as Reiki does. Even more, with Holographic Kinetics a person not only clears the issues and heal but also breaks agreements with those external forces that were manipulating them and therefore becomes more empowered and in control of their vehicle and of their life.
Thank you for stopping by.
Thank you for the article. I too have had experience with both, both as practitioner and client of both. As far as energy healing goes to put it in a simple way the two are opposite. I would describe Reiki as external to internal (use of outside energy force or power, including intent and prayer – that is giving your power away to another) and Holographic Kinetics healing as Internal to external (in HK the practitioner is facilitating the Spirit of the person on the table to clear their issues) and this is therefore empowering the person’s own Spirit. Isn’t the purpose of healing to empower the spirit to assist them to evolve? I know what I choose for me and my clients.
Thank you for your comment Glenda. Nicely put.
How do you de tune from reiki?
The same as you’d “de tune” from tools you don’t want to use anymore.
And if you’d feel a need to take it further then also resolve that impulse in you that have made you use them in the first place, and then deal with any interference as a result of those actions. How you can go about it is explained in the article above.
Awesome post.
What a very odd post? Sounds like its been written by Doreen Virtue (after finding jesus).
I recently had 2 reiki sessions that has left me with something missing ! I am a Jesus believing christian and I always had peace in my heart but by far not a perfect life so a lot of emotion pain, that pain is gone but so is my peace I have been trying to get back my faith but it is so hard within days of my 2nd session that left me empty I had a mild psychotic break where I was hallucinating and landed in the er with some meds prescribed that are helping but I still feel as if reiki is controlling me. How can I get rid of it ? Will I ever feel truly good again? The psychiatrist I saw told me to go to a place of my beliefs ,I have but there is more and I don’t know where else to turn. There is no one in this area that I have found.If there anything online that I can access to help break this hold? I tried a few things that somewhat helped but it comes right back on me ?
Angela, psychotropic medication lowers your defences and opens you for more external interferences.
You may want to look for a Holographic Kinetics practitioner in your area to assist you in clearing the agreement you’ve made through reiki, and also to address the root cause behind it and for seeking that kind of help.
In the work of Cameron Day you may find some good advise too on how to do it on your own… however it will be a much longer process.
Wow
Thanks for this post. I am a Christian and have been wavering whether or not I should take a Reiki course. Whenever I thought of registering, then I had serious doubts and would do more research. This was the clearest, most honest explanation I have heard. My Acupuncturistt even said be careful because on style in particular was Spiritually dangerous. I have made up my mind…what God has put in me is more than enough. I use what I have been given more effectively. Thanks
I went to one reiki / bodytalk session, after being sick, because I heard it was similar to acupuncture as a form of energy healing. My pastor questioned why I had done this and told me that it was spiritual. I never felt weird about it, or concerned, until I read your article. I also don’t feel that your article is clear. If I am understanding correctly, I am now energetically connected with the reiki practitioner? Forever? And if so, how do I block that connection? I do not see clear instructions except for use my palms? I would love more guidance on this. Thank you.
Jenny Rose,
Reiki works with certain “outside forces”, inviting them inside the field of the client (and the practitioner) through direct invocation and through symbols. We need to know that any “force” that wants to gain the access to our being will want that for the purpose of being able to manipulate and use us (the host) for its own agenda.
All religions are manipulated by these same forces and we start breaking our ties with them when we turn our attention inwards and stop seeking for the guidance outside ourselves.
How can one block the reiki connection once the agreement was made?
If you do it on your own you could start by using this visualisation:
– Choose a calm moment of being on your own in the space where you know you wan’t be disturbed.
– Sit down comfortably and imagine drawing a wide circle around you. You are sitting inside this circle which has a golden edge. This is your space.This is your game which belongs to you and you only. Nothing can come in if you don’t allow it to be there.
– Now state clearly what is your intention, i.e. what would you like to achieve…
(For instance: I want to know if something got attached to me during my reiki session and if that happened, I want to identify where it is was placed so I can take it out).
– Start scanning/ sensing/ perceiving your body in your mind’s eye how it feels. Are there any energetic ties, energetic cables attached to you. If they are, where are they? How do they feel? What colour are they? It would feel like an energetic cable or heavy spot or area where there is a leakage of your energy.
– Now travel back in your memory to the moment when those ties were placed into you during that Reiki session. Observe in your mind’s eye what happened. Observe your body. Feel it, percive it. It might come as a thought or a knowing of what happened.
– If you identify any, pull them out (some prefer to cut them), place them out of your filed or throw them back to where they came from. Say: what is yours is yours, what is mine is mine.
You may want to dissolve them, send them to the Force that is and creates everything, burn them… whatever feels appropriate to you.
– Now go back in your mind’s eye to the moment just before you’ve decided to go for that reiki session, and change it. Would you still do it? Would you still open yourself or would you prefer to do something else, now that you know what happened. If you want to change it, imagine what would you do instead and how it would feel. Stay with it a few moments and feel your whole being being empowered.
And if this doesn’t work for you and you would feel that you can’t make it, you can always choose an assistance of someone who can guide you in this process. Someone that would assist you, not do it for you.
Hope this answers your questions, Jenny Rose.
It saddens me to see that there is a bit of a cult like mentality among those that practice HK. I know many practitioners of both Reiki and HK both are beautiful people… but among the latter there seems to be a loss of thinking for themselves as HK group think is taken on board. Like everything there is potential dangers if a practitioner has not done enough self-work and simply accepts what they are told is true.
We do not exist in a vacuum, we are part of the universe..and at this level where duality is expressed we have both negative and positive forces in our environment.We are everyday making choices of what energies we align with. A good Reiki practitioner has cultivated discernment and only works with beautiful universal energy. This fear-based information shared here is misguided and only acts to make people avoid things out of fear. I prefer a love aligned approach in which each individual is encouraged to tap into their own knowing. When people are taught to stop listening to outside authorities and tune into their own inner navigation system this type of fear based information becomes obsolete. Like anything there are great Reiki practitioners and dodgy ones. I don’t practice Reiki, but have had several divine treatments by beautiful heart aligned healers that I found extremely helpful on my journey. Let’s move away from the old fear based paradigm approach of speaking in absolutes <3
I hear you Christy.
In my thirty plus years of experience in the field of natural medicine I’ve seen quite a few beautiful but, unfortunately, very naive people. Sadly, well intentioned and ignorant does not mean no harm will be done to others.
Let’s not forget that Reiki works with symbols and uses initiations to open inter-dimensional doors. I’ve been there and I’ve experienced it. On the other hand, HK technique is for me a tool and not a way of belonging to a group or blindly following the creator of that game. Everyone is free to believe and practice whatever they choose to and any label or belonging to a certain group is, after all, just another form of a limitation.
We are powerful beings and ultimately we do not need any of that. There are many paths to take in order to explore Life.
Thank you for stopping by and sharing your views, Christy.
Part of being a Creator of your own game involves deciding a belief system to live by. Beliefs are thoughts and ideas accepted as truth which is determined through a beings experiences and what we externally accept as an objective truth. sometimes that can be through trusting others expériences or absorbing repitition. Beliefs are ultimately thought, and What you believe is what ultimately becomes real. Because before something is created, it begins with a thought. All that said, bottom line is either side can become a reality and free will/intention is what decides that. Be wise, what you seek is what you find. Trust your own intuition and your own experiences. I have tried both reiki and HK. And honestly I have evolved past them both. Perhaps that was the reason for their existence in my experience. But they just are not the best beliefs to live by from what I’ve found. It is not freedom. I am freedom. You are freedom. You are the key.
Hi Jordan,
Totally agree… from the invisible (to human eyes) to the visible, thoughts become a reality.
Recognising and trusting our own intuition is the key.
Ultimately, it does not matter what anyone says since it is about them, and we live our own life and our unique experiences enrich the fabric of Life.
As you nicely put, any tool is just a tool and it has the limitations of its creator, be it reiki or hk or any other technique. Sooner or later we need to move beyond them and immerse ourself into our own freedom, realising that the key lies inside us. Once we reach this point the only “teacher” we “follow” is our own internal voice.
Thank you for this article Anamarija. I didn’t have this information and had one distance session on me and my kids so now what? How to get rid of it, if possible?
I have included a brief instruction on how one can do it on their own. Please see the article for “How to clear the effects of my session?”
You can use these seven steps for yourself and you may also be able to guide your kids.
And if not, feel free to get in contact privately and I may be able to recommend you something more according to your needs.
Thank you very much. Unfortunately, can’t find that article. Is it normal to feel sad and overwhelmed? My kids are doing fine or I think but I do cry a lot few days now..it is perhaps the stress I’m going through..
My apologies for confusing instructions Melinda. Please see this same article again. I’ve added instructions with simple step.
You can access them by clicking on the button in the article, which says: “How to clear the effects of my session?” and a window with text will pop up.
I am sorry to hear you feel sad and overwhelmed. It might be due to your reiki session and it might be not. It is impossible for me to give you my take on it without knowing more about your circumstances.
I do work with clients online so feel free to contact me through my online form, if you need assistance.
My baby is quite upset also.. :(
If you feel sad and overwhelmed it’s normal that your baby would also be upset. You and your baby are connected.
Hi Anamarija. Have you heard about a energy healing called magnified healing? Is it the same as reiki? It doesn’t use any symbols but Hebrew chants, visualization and hand movements.
Hi Yamini,
No, I’m afraid I am not aware of this healing modality.
My personal recommendation would be to stay away from any chants that you don’t know what they really mean since they might be open invitations to interferences. The core of your being is the ultimate reality, the root and ground of Universe, the source of all that exists ;)
Thank you for the instrutctions! I mean really Thank You !
You are very welcome, Sven.
