Meditation and Spirituality for All: Om

The practice of Yoga and other Energy techniques aims at enlightenment with different methods involving complex rituals like featured music, chanting words of power called mantras, symbolism, stylized gestures called mudras, mystic diagrams called mandalas, and counting your breathsMany spiritual traditions teach their students concentration as the primary meditation practice. Just keep on focusing your mind on the mantra or the symbol or the visualization, they advise you will attain what is called absorption or samadhi: the sense of being a separate 'me' disappears, and only the object of your attention remains. As Herbert Benson explains the meditative repetition of a mantra, tends to calm the mind and relax de body. What is more important about the name of the symbols used in Reiki practices is not the dictionary definition of what they mean, but the actual sound or vibrations made when pronouncing them. We can consider the Sanskrit word om as an example. Just as the sound of the mantra 'om' is also the name of the symbol, 'Om' is also an evocative sound on its own without even visualizing the graphinc symbol. Likewise the mantra associated with each Reiki symbol can also evoque the Reiki Energy. Rememeber: the Mantra is the Repetition of Sacred Words. The names of the Reiki Symbols can also be considered a mantra and thus chanted to bring forth Reiki Energy. To begin with Meditation, you can develop the skill of focusing and concentrating your mind, to be calmed and like a prevention of agitation. As your concentration deepens,  thoughts and feelings naturally bubble up and evaporate, following the process of spontaneous release.
