What is Reiki?

Why consider this Self-care method for building resilience during stressful times?

Reiki is a meditative healing technique that combines body, mind, and spirit - awareness, openness to Chi/prana, universal life-force energy through breath, and visualization as well. Reiki can be learned and practiced by anyone, to gather energy to help yourself with healing, processing and clearing, what emotions and memories are sitting (stagnant vs free flowing) in the body.

Reiki can be accessed in a 1:1 session or a group setting, making it more affordable per person and as a blended group experience in a soundbath, gongwash or other meditation journey or Reiki share.

The experienced Reiki practitioner offers universal energy to hold space for you or the group (with compassionate listening and non-judgement of various experiences) while helping support you to do your inner work - to open up to areas within the body-mind that were possibility “blocked” or hidden/ inaccessible, or repressed due to unable to be processed at the time or trauma, accident, etc. In this evolving way, Reiki and other energetic healing modalities, blends and methods - should be considered a partnership between you, the guide and Spirit or the energy leading the way to open the pathway to healing and deeper connection with the self and Spirit/Universe/All that is/ insert how applies and compliments your belief in a higher power/God, etc.

Reiki and/or Energy Healing methods are Holistic Healing which is intended to complement, not replace, your care by a professional medical team and treatment through a mental health provider. Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns or would like a referral.
