Reiki literally means universal energy. If you try to use your own, personal energy you are not pulling in reiki that is why it either doesn't work, weakens you or causes you to be tired. There is a practice called Therapuetic Touch that is taught to nurses when they have no other classes they can take to keep their certifications and it is about giving your personal energy to others. Many people who practice Therapuetic Touch actually get the symptoms of what ever ailment they are trying to heal in someone else. Reiki does not work that way because you are not using your personal energy. It is like being the cord that plugs in to the electric socket so the lamp can light.
