Hatsu Rei Ho
The Reiki attunements give everyone baseline ability, so you all start off on the same footing. However, how effective or how 'clear' a channel you are depends on what you do with the energy. It is very important to get regular practice, particularly in first few weeks after being attuned, by doing self-treatments and treating others, but from Japan has come a series of energy exercises specially designed to be used by Reiki people.
These exercises are called 'Hatsu Rei Ho'. 'Hatsu Rei Ho' originates in Tendai Buddhism, and
the exercises have correspondences with Tibetan Buddhist purification rituals, Taoist or meridian massage, and QiGong too. They are used within the Usui Reiki Ryoho Gakkai, and it was only in 1999 that the techniques were revealed in the Western world by Hiroshi Doi who is a member of Usui's Association. Hatsu Rei Ho is designed to be carried out every day for at about 10-15 minutes, and is the basis of the practice of Reiki in the Gakkai. It is something that is done conscientiously at all levels: First, Second and Master levels.
This means 'Dry Bathing' or 'Brushing Off' Kenyoku can be seen as a way of getting rid of negative energy. It has correspondences with Taoist massage, or meridian massage. Here is what to do:

When you breathe in, visualize energy or light flooding into your crown chakra and passing into your Tan den and, as you pause before exhaling, feel that energy expand throughout your body, melting all your tensions.
When you breathe out, imagine that the energy floods out of your body in all directions as far as infinity.
Feel energy / tingling in your hands and feet, as meditation progresses. Stay with this energy for some time.
An important aspect of this meditation is that you should focus your awareness on the point where your middle fingers touch.
