Our chi, qui, or prana, as the life forces of energy are called in Japanese, flow through every human being. According to Reiki circles and methodologies, it is strongly believed that every person on the earth is connected, we are all made of energy that can be transmitted and made to travel through time and space. This is the basic principle behind practicing distance Reiki. This can help in linking and channelizing the Reiki energy to people who are not physically present or if some healing is required to be done to a person’s past.
