Just reading articles about Reiki and watching pictures do not teach anyone how Reiki is performed. One has to undergo proper training and exercises to learn the real sense of Reiki. It is essential to learn how the energy is concentrated, stored and then transmitted to people living far and near. Crown chakra, the one present in the tip of the head is responsible to store and let in more energy.
