subject: Reiki Meditation Music [print this page] Having the right kind of meditative music to use in conjunction with various healing techniques is essential for a Reiki practitioner. Effective Reiki meditation music can help to calm and soothe the mind and body for both patient and healer, assisting in fine-tuning your energy to ensure a successful healing session.
The meditation music that is chosen by the Reiki practitioner should bring about a feeling of harmony and peace to the soul. Music that is distracting will not do either you or your patient any service throughout the healing session. There are songs on the radio that make us feel good or make us want to sing and dance, however, for meditative purposes, those types of songs are counter productive.
To choose meditation music that is ideal for Reiki, start by looking at wind instruments, chimes, soothing flute sounds or even subtle gongs. In many cases, piano music can be very helpful throughout the healing process for many patients. However, for most patients, the use of wind instruments create a more soothing sensation which can help to focus the energies of patient and healer during a Reiki session.
Other types of meditation music that are beneficial to Reiki include nature sounds. Sounds of water are a great place to start, such as waterfalls, raindrops, heavy rainfall or even babbling brooks. Sounds of animals such as bird noises, Rain Forest sounds or even whale songs are quite effective. Peaceful music can be found anywhere and there are many varieties to choose from. You can find these CDs in your local mega store or book store, but particularly at a specialty shop that carries lots of different New Age healing and alternative medicine offerings.
If you or a patient are dealing with a lot of stress, some types of music may recall all of those problems and issues, drawing the patient to focus on the things that cause trouble to their minds, throughout the session. This is why it is vital to choose the proper type of meditation music for your Reiki sessions. The proper music can help to relax and ease the distractions and tensions of our troubles in our minds, and can also help to relax and ease away the restless energies of our bodies, bringing about harmony between the mind, body and soul.
