The Chi Book by Sarah Luczaj

The Chi Book by Sarah Luczaj

Chi is life energy.

Literally.

It's the energy which makes the difference between a person, animal or plant being alive, and being dead.

Chi is not something apart from what we are.

Chi can't be owned, given or taken away.

It isn't information, it can't be taught. It has its own intelligence.

Left to its own devices, it is in the nature of chi to flow. The flow of chi is quintessentially natural. It's possible, however, to partially block or interfere with the flow.

Then, skills are involved in creating proper conditions so it may move unimpeded, exactly as it is.

The brains of many, if not most, people on the planet are now constantly bathed in some form of electromagnetic frequency - quite a fresh occurrence in human history. People carry devices around like life-support machines as if to keep their brainwaves constantly attuned to those frequencies - frequencies of dissociation and scatteredness, of constant checking and constant reacting, rather than creating. Of addictive pseudo-action on the mental plane alone.

This maintains fear and anxiety as a constant state. Fear and anxiety held in the system, maintained permanently, create a sense of helplessness that leaves you open to exploitation, and uses up precious resources in your nervous system, leaving you depleted.

If you live in accordance with the natural flow of the chi, there's no holding on to fear. Fear's just a response to situations, which appears when necessary then goes away again. If the chi is not fully flowing, and a situation perceived to be life-threatening happens - you can't react. That's when trauma sets in.

So, in the present day context, with disconnection and trauma rife and institutionalised, with people making money from keeping your energy scattered, the function of Reiki or healing-with-the-chi gains a new twist. All the ancient traditions of energy healing - different ways of amplifying and transmitting the chi - are needed as never before. Reiki is one of them, and a simple one to grasp.

Luczaj, Sarah: - Sarah Luczaj is a person centered counsellor who worked in private practice in rural Poland for almost two decades, and is now based in Glasgow. She runs live and online workshops in the Creative Regeneration process, which involve a specific blend of focusing, meditation, free-writing and intuitive painting. The Creative Regeneration process links and crystallises her own Buddhist and focusing practices as well as her experience and skills as a widely published poet, writer and literary translator who is also actively involved in visual art and music. Sarah is also the co-founder of the terrealuma healing refuge (www.terrealuma.com), a centre for spiritual activism and creative bliss, in Poland. The refuge aims to facilitate healing through reconnection to nature, on all levels from the nutritional, through permaculture practices and use of wild herbs, to the creative and spiritual. She is also a Reiki practitioner (at Master level), staying close to the original roots of Reiki in Buddhist and Taoist practices. Her PhD thesis, entitled 'Felt Senses of Self and No-Self in Therapy', investigating the intersections between focusing, therapy and Buddhism, is presently being turned into book form.
