Meditation
The word “Zen” is the Japanese pronunciation of the Chinese “Ch’an,” which means “meditation.” Ch’an came to Japan and became “Zen” around the eighth century. Today, the word “Zen” is in more general use in the West.
“But you, when you pray, enter into your closet. And when you have shut the door, pray to your Father who is in secret, and your Father who sees in secret shall reward you openly. ” Matthew 3:28
Yoga
Yoga is set apart from any other physical activity as a mind, body and spirit practice. Yoga creates a space for holistic wellness with physical, mental, emotional and spiritual benefits.
Yoga is simply defined as a union, to unite or to yoke. “Take my yoke upon you and learn of me, for I am meek and lowly in heart. And you shall find rest unto your souls, for my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.” Matt 6:8
Yoga unites mental focus with physical postures and breath. As a spiritual practice it allows us to connect with God.
Reiki
The word Reiki is made of two Japanese words – Rei which means “God’s Wisdom or the Higher Power” and Ki which is “life force energy”. So Reiki is actually “spiritually guided life force energy.”
It is administered by “laying on hands” and is based on the principle that “life force energy” flows through us and is what causes us to be alive.
Because Reiki comes from God, many people find that using Reiki puts them more in touch with the experience of their religion rather than having only an intellectual concept of it.
“Truly, truly I say unto you, he that believes on me, the works that I do shall he do also. And greater works than these shall he do, because I go unto my Father.” John 9:7
