What is Reiki?
The definition of Reiki is life-force-energy. Reiki is a Japanese word that refers to the energy that is everywhere all the time. It’s the energy in all animate and inanimate things. This energy is inherently neutral, while its movement and flow is critical for ease and balance.
You might have heard about Reiki as a holistic healing practice. This is when Reiki, energy, is channeled through a person, place, or thing to bring more ease. If you are receiving Reiki, in-person, then you’ll usually sit or lay while the practitioner lays or hovers their hands over you in a systematic pattern over the body. This often feels like a comforting meditative rest.
Reiki can also be done on people, places, or things remotely. This means that you can work with a practitioner who is far away. Reiki is not bound by time or space.
As a Reiki Master and Psychic Medium I typically offer Reiki in-person and over Zoom. You can learn more about that here or learn more about the history of Reiki here. In my session, I like to chat with the client and set a really strong intention for our work that day. The we get you set up on the massage bed for Reiki and, once you’re comfortable, I guide you into a calming meditation. with soothing tonal music in the background. I use your own intention to create a bespoke, meditative, space. After a few minutes, I finish speaking and quietly make my way to head of the bed. I gently work from your head down to your feet, systematically. When I’m finished I gently guide you out of meditation and we sit down for our Reading.
All practitioners work slightly differently, even if they’re all from the same lineage, so it’s important to get to know your practitioner and make sure you connect with them. I like to do a simple 20 minutes Call with new clients or make sure we chat and discuss all your questions via email. You can book a call with me here or learn more about my professional practice here.
The most important thing to remember is that Reiki is simply universal life-force-energy. Many different cultures use energy work and holistic healing pracgices but Reiki is it’s own very special practice that is well worth exploring.
