Seichem
What is Seichem?
Seichem (pronounced Say-Keem)is an energy healing method which originates from the same source as Reiki. Seichem brings in the energy of the elements and you cannot be attuned to Seichem without first completing your Reiki training. Reiki is the base element of Earth, Seichem then adds the energies of the remaining three elements, Air, Fire and Water.
As with Reiki, the energy is channelled through the crown chakra (top of the head) and exits at the chakras in the palms of the hands. At this point the energy is passed to the client vis non invasive touch at different locations around the body. Note: physical touch is not necessary and can be passed by the hovering of the practitioners hands over the areas also. The energy then moves around the clients system locating any imbalances, stagnant energy or blocks and works to resolve these, the difference here is adding in the extra elements mean that certain areas/issues may be targeted more precisely if there is a need for this. Again, this all depends on the need of each individual person and so Seichem sessions can differ greatly from client to client and even from session to session with the same client.
Seichem is the ancient Egyptian word for God like energy or spiritual power, there are many different spellings such as Seichim, Sekhem, SKHM. It is an Ancient Egyptian energy, channelled and practiced there for healing for many years. It was reintroduced to Earth by Patrick Ziegler in 1980 when he spent the night in the Kings Chamber of the Great Pyramid in Egypt. There he received the Seichem Energy and later learned how to pass this energy to others. The attunements and knowledge of the elements were later given to Kathleen Ann Milner, the originator of Tera Mai Reiki.
As with Reiki, Seichem is not a religion or associated with any religious orders nor does it interfere with any religious beliefs or practices. Reiki is an energy based practice and serves only to help heal the body, mind and spirit.
It is a complimentary therapy that can be used in conjunction with any medical treatments without interference.
It is extremely beneficial for clearing and balancing the energy body. As with Reiki is it highly beneficial for combating stress and anxiety issues as well as a number of physical and emotional issues.
What to expect during a session...
A Seichem session is conducted the very same as the Reiki session with the client lying fully clothed on a plinth usually under blankets for extra comfort and warmth depending on the clients preferences. The room will be energetically cleared before the client arrives and will be set to induce a relaxed feeling using incense, candles and soft relaxing music. Before the session we will discuss the process, how the energy works, what you should expect and any questions that you may have. During the session we will ask you to simply relax as much as possible and set an intention for what you would like to achieve during the session. Most clients may fall asleep during their session and/or report falling into a state of deep relaxation. The session will last for one hour and afterwards we will discuss the session, what you experienced, anything that arose during the session, any energy blocks that came to light and the next steps for you to release these for good if not already done so during the session.
Types of sessions we offer
1:1 - This is a typical Seichem session conducted with one Seichem practitioner.
Double - This is conducted with both Starlit Therapies practitioners. The male and female energy helps to promote balance working on both the yin and yang energies. These sessions are typically about ten - fifteen minutes shorter as there is a double energy being facilitated.
