When considering the twelve reiki positions for powerful hand placement, these positions can better be understood if we divide the placement numbers into four groups of three. The first three consist of the groin or area of procreation, the tailbone, the area of spinal origin, and the abdomen, the area of compassion and emotion. When a Reiki healer motivates the chakras in these areas, she is healing the foundation of the person, as well as the Earth from whence we come. This is our base, our support, to all that we do, and these areas must be healthy and whole first, in order for the rest of the body to have strength and stamina.
