| FULL BODY HAND POSITIONS CONTINUED.... *please not that if you have trouble reaching over to the other side of the body, do one leg completely, before moving on to the other. Position 7: starting at the base chakra, place a hand over each side of the pelvic area taking care to be above the pubic region so as not to cause offence or distress. The heel of one hand should be touching or nearly touching the fingers of the other hand. Position 8: move up to the sacral chakra and place both hands on either side of body's middle line, again with the heel of one hand touching the fingers of the other. Position 9 : move up to the solar chakra and place your hands on either side of the body's middle line, with the heel of one hand touching the fingers of the other. Position 10: moving up to the heart chakra, place the palm of one hand in the middle of the breast bone between the breasts with the fingers pointing up towards the chin. The palm of your other hand will touch the fingertips of the first hand making a T shape. The second hand position will mean that the fingers of the second hand are at a right angle to the body's middle line. This is the final position for the full body Reiki unless you feel it necessary to turn them over and do their back. If this is the case, start at their feet and work up to the 'T' position at the heart chakra. Sweeping the Aura clean. When you have finished the healing, it is important to remove any negative energy that has been released during the healing that has filtered out into the aura. This can be removed by gently sweeping your cupped hand through the aura and scooping out any energy that should not be there and giving it up to the universe to transform. This can also be done with an eagle feather or you may smudge the aura to cleanse it. Once you have done this, take your hand and visualize that you are holding a zipper and zip them up from foot to head. This makes sure that they are nicely cocooned in their bubble of healing energy for a while. It is important to realise thatthe person will need to take a little time to come round from the healing as they will have reached a deeply relaxed state - in fact some people even go to sleep on the table! So it is necessary to gently tell them to open their eyes when they are ready. Then they may need assistance in coming to a seated position. Have a glass of water ready for them to help them come back to full senses. It is impoartant that you make sure that they are able to drive home safely. Pillows for support. It is important when someone is lying on their back on the table, that you place a pillow under their knees to support the small of their back - unless they indicate they are more comfortable without it. If they are lying on their front, place a pillow under their ankles - again to support their back. *PLEASE REFER TO PHOTOS FOR CLARIFICATION These photos are only a guideline for you to use. They give you a general idea of where and in what sequence to place your hands in a full body Reiki. If you feel guided to do something different to what you see in these photos, then do so and find out what works best for you and what is most comfortable. |

| This photo shows one of the possible positions to begin your healing. I have also seen healers put both hands on top of the feet, as well as one hand on top and the other underneath and then swapping to the other foot. This is important as it helps clear the minor foot chakra which allows release through the feet. |
