An Introduction to Reiki Self-Healing
Reiki (pronounced RAY-key) is an alternative healing technique that involves the transfer of universal life force energy to support the body's natural ability to heal itself. Unlike other healing modalities that rely on the practitioners own energy, Reiki taps into an unlimited supply of free-flowing energy to facilitate self-healing and balance.
The Origins of Reiki Healing
Reiki was developed in 1922 by Mikao Usui in Japan. According to texts, Usui embarked on a 21-day fast to discover how Jesus healed. At the end, he received the ability from the universe to channel Reiki energy and transmit it to others through light touch or hovering of hands above the body.
The word Reiki comes from rei meaning universal and ki meaning life force energy that sustains all living things. This energy is all around us and Reiki allows focused connection to it.
How Reiki Self-Healing Works
Reiki relies on the transmission of ki from the universe rather than the practitioners personal energy reserves. By opening as a vessel, the practitioner channels positive energy through their hands to the recipient. This activates and balances the recipients energy flow so their body can accelerate its own natural healing abilities.

FAQs
Does frying add a lot of extra calories to tilapia?
Yes, frying significantly increases the calories in tilapia, often doubling or tripling the count. The extra calories come primarily from the oil absorbed during frying.
What method of frying is lowest in calories: air, pan or deep fried?
Air frying tilapia is the lowest calorie option because it requires little oil. Pan frying uses more oil than air frying but less than deep frying. Deep frying allows the most oil absorption and highest calorie count.
Can I still eat fried tilapia if I'm trying to lose weight?
Fried tilapia can be part of a diet for weight loss in moderation. Prioritize lower-calorie cooking methods like air frying, watch your portions, and balance it out with non-fried fruits, vegetables and whole grains.
Is fried tilapia less healthy than other fried foods?
While frying adds unwanted calories and saturated fat, tilapia remains a lean protein that's lower in mercury than many fish. In moderation, it's still a healthier choice than fried chips, chicken wings, etc.
