When you understand what your Emotional Body is and how to use it you can really help yourself and other people with their physical problems.

When you step into your emotional body and use Reiki to get in touch with the alignment of your head and spine, what does it remind you of? Think back to an earlier time in your life (but only if you want). Were there times in your life you remember when these parts of your body were key players in specific events? If you can pinpoint these events - then you can send loving Reiki in order to heal your past timelines. When those events are healed within your emotional body (use all 3 level 2 symbols), it is likely the pain in those physical body parts that hold those painful emotions will also smooth and release. It is like erasing the effects of the pain while still being fully capable of keeping the memories for your soul growth and wisdom with how you can live your life now when the fears over those events no longer have any power over you on any level. Start to realize (manifest) the freedom of your Radiant indwelling light.
