OBJECTIVES
This study examined the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the experience, practice and future of Reiki in the UK, including the personal impact of the pandemic on practitioners and their work, practitioner perceptions of the future of the profession and Reiki delivery, and practitioner experiences and views of distant Reiki in comparison to hands on or near the body treatments.
METHOD
A qualitative study using semi-structured interviews was carried out with 10 Reiki practitioners. Interviews were recorded, transcribed verbatim and analysed using thematic analysis.
RESULTS
Three themes were identified: adapting and growing with the challenges of COVID-19, Reiki for individual and community resilience, and moving from the mainstream hands on to lesser known distant Reiki.
CONCLUSION
While the COVID-19 pandemic personally impacted Reiki practitioners, they focused on turning adversity into opportunity, to overcome a sense of disconnectedness and social isolation, by providing social support and promoting individual and community resilience. Practitioners focused on self-care, personal development and reaching out to the community. Personal Protective Equipment was perceived as necessary for infection control but a potential barrier to the client's experience of Reiki. They saw value in adapting their practice as part of the future of the profession by utilising new technology and distant Reiki healing, but were clear this could not replace in person contact.
目的
本研究考察了 COVID-19 大流行对英国灵气体验、实践和未来的影响，包括大流行对从业者及其工作的个人影响、从业者对专业未来和灵气治疗的看法、以及从业者对远程灵气治疗（与身体接触或靠近身体的治疗相比）的体验和看法。
方法
采用半结构式访谈对 10 名灵气从业者进行了定性研究。对访谈进行录音、逐字转录，并采用主题分析进行分析。
结果
确定了三个主题：适应和应对 COVID-19 挑战而成长、灵气对个人和社区韧性的作用、以及从主流的接触式灵气治疗转向鲜为人知的远程灵气治疗。
结论
虽然 COVID-19 大流行对灵气从业者个人产生了影响，但他们专注于将逆境转化为机遇，通过提供社会支持和促进个人和社区的韧性，克服脱节感和社会隔离感。从业者专注于自我保健、个人发展和与社区联系。个人防护设备被认为是感染控制的必要措施，但可能会影响客户体验灵气。他们认为，作为专业未来的一部分，通过利用新技术和远程灵气治疗来调整实践是有价值的，但清楚地表明这不能替代面对面的接触。
