Reikianiu

Reikianiu is a term that has appeared in certain online communities, particularly those discussing spirituality and alternative healing. The precise origin and definition of "reikianiu" are not widely established in mainstream discourse or academic literature. It appears to be a portmanteau, potentially combining elements of "Reiki" and "Chi" (or "Qi"), the concept of life force energy in Traditional Chinese Medicine.

Within the contexts where it is used, reikianiu is often described as a practice that involves channeling universal life force energy. Proponents suggest it aims to promote physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being by balancing and harmonizing the body's energy systems. This often involves practitioners placing their hands on or near a recipient's body, though distance healing is also sometimes mentioned.

The practice is generally understood to be a form of energy work, similar in principle to Reiki, but potentially with its own unique techniques or philosophical underpinnings. Information about reikianiu is primarily found on personal blogs, forums, and social media platforms dedicated to spiritual or holistic practices. There is limited scientific research or empirical evidence to support the efficacy of reikianiu or similar energy healing modalities. Its understanding and application remain largely within the realm of personal belief and subjective experience.
