    Reiki is the essence of life and self-preservation. It is inside the DNA of every living thing on the planet. It embodies the higher self’s connection with the universe, and it is a part of the ebb and flow of life. We are all born with the capacity to heal and maintain our health naturally. Our ancestors used this inherent knowledge, as well as other skills, to preserve not only our lives, but the lives of others as well. Unfortunately, due to the passage of time and the rapid growth of technology

    regards to Bibi. Instead of stopping the treatment, or at least comforting Bibi, when she “screams and throes” in agony, the speaker merely mentions how he/she would “name her” in his/her “prayers”. The speaker simply jumps to the next method of healing, without paying heed to Bibi on a face to face level. This depicts the speaker as someone that wants to heal Bibi, but fails to nurture her, and as the story is driven by the speaker’s words, the tone of the writing mirrors the speaker’s subconscious
