Enhancing Kids' Reiki Energy

All living things vibrate and those vibrations can have good or bad effects on you. When you hear sounds you are actually hearing vibrations. The vibrations that create sounds can also have powerful effects you and especially on children.

The sound of rainfall or birds singing can have a soothing and calming effect on you, but hearing fingernails scratching across a chalkboard can have the opposite result. When you speak you create vibrations with your vocal cords and mouth that people can hear.

The vibrations of some words can have a direct physical and emotional affects on kids. Mantras are words or short phrases used to create soothing sounds that can connect children to their higher self and to the collective consciousness of the universe.

The word Mantra is created from the two Sanskrit words of manas and trai. "Manas" means "mind," and "trai" means to "protect" or "free from" so the meaning of Mantra is "to set free from the mind." Hymns, prayers, ritualistic incantations or verbal spells are considered the same as a mantras.

These short phrases are used in all religions of the world to create changes in consciousness and to bring practitioners closer to their divine being, creator, or closer to nature.

There are hundreds of Mantras and each corresponds to a specific spiritual energy vibration and to a specific desired state of mind. When kids use Mantras they start a powerful vibration that causes changes in their body and mind.

Over time, the mantra process begins to override other vibrations and creates a harmonic resonance, where a kids entire being vibrates at the same rate as the mantra. This brings them completely in tune or in harmony with the energy and spiritual state of the specific mantra.

Mantras can give children the power to: cure diseases, ward off evil, gain wealth, acquire supernatural powers, attain a blissful state, and many other purposes.
 

We use the simple but very powerful Mantra of Om to help increase our healing energy and to focus us on the healing process.

The mantra Om was handed down to us by ancient Himalayan sages and is the most important Mantra. Almost all of the other Mantras begin and even end with Om.

Om is of great importance in the religion of Hinduism and represents the source of all things in existence. Elements of Om can be found in many other cultures and religions such as Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Jainism, Sikhism and Buddhism. There is also evidence that Om was used in ancient Egypt and by the Celts.

You should not think about Om as just a simple word but instead as an intonation, or chant, that transcends age, race, culture and even species. This simple mantra harmonizes children's physical, emotional, and intellectual aspects of who they are. Om completely changes the way they understand those things around them, within them, and beyond them.

Om is made up of three Sanskrit letters, aa, au and ma which, when combined together, make the sound "AUM’. The following exercises will show you how to say and use this simple yet powerful mantra.

The "A" sound is pronounced "AH" as in "father" and should resonate in the center of your mouth.

The "U" sound is pronounced as the ending in the word "who" and transfers the vibration to the back of your mouth.

The third sound of "M" is just humming with your lips gently closed. This sound should resonate at the front of your mouth and vibrate throughout your head.

Try saying Om (Aum) several times before doing the exercise below.

1. Start in the standing position with your feet shoulder width apart with your hands and arms hanging comfortably at your sides.

2. Inhale gently and easily while you expand your breath into your belly and prepare to make all three vowels of the "AUM" sound in one seamless breath. You should create the intention of sound of the "A" before you actually make the sound by opening your mouth as you inhale and visualize that you are inhaling the "A" sound itself.

3. As you begin to make the "A" sound, slowly raise your arms straight out to your side as if you are trying embrace the entire universe. Here you are connecting with the infinite energy of the universe and the energy of unity of consciousness.

4. As you start to change the sound from the "A" to "U" extend your arms to your front and visualize your reiki energy building between your hands (like the exercise in Chapter Two).

Here you are bringing the energy of the universe to your reality or plane of existents where you can feel and use it.

5. As the "U" turns into to the "M" sound, bring your hands and the energy they contain to about 3 inches about your Heart Chakra.

Here you are absorbing that energy into your own body.

6. Then, as the "M" sound fades, gently place your palms on your chest placing the energy lovingly into your heart. Breathe gently. Here you are allowing the energy to resonate within you.

7. Slowly repeat steps 3, 4, 5 and 6 several times allowing these steps to take 4 to 5 seconds to complete each sequence.
