What is Reiki?

The word ‘Reiki’ is of Japanese origin, and is comprised of two words: rei, which means ‘higher power or hidden force’ and ki, meaning ‘life energy,’ thus Reiki is often referred to as ‘Universal life energy.’ This Japanese Biofield energy healing technique was developed by Zen Buddhist Mikau Usui in the early 20th century and serves to rebalance the human energy field.

Research has shown that Reiki can enhance wellbeing, relieve stress and depression (Vitale, 2007) and help with pain relief (Thrane & Cohen, 2014; Dogan, 2018) and is now increasingly used in hospital settings alongside traditional allopathic medicine (Miles & True, 2003; Dogan, 2018).

 

What happens during a Reiki session?

During a session the client will either lie down or sit comfortably. The Reiki Practitioner will then channel the universal life force energy by placing their hands on or over 12 specific areas on the body, including the body’s 7 physical Chakra’s.

The energy is typically channelled using light touch, however the energy can also be channelled without touch if the client prefers. The energy can also be sent remotely during a Distance Reiki session.

Clients often report feeling very relaxed during a session, and sometimes drift into sleep. Sometimes clients report seeing colours, feeling temperature changes, or tingly sensations; there is no right or wrong way to experience a session and each session is entirely unique.

Sessions typically last between 30-45 minutes.

 

What happens during a Distance Reiki session?

Physical distance is no barrier to the Reiki energy, which is sent across time and space and is known to be just as effective without physical touch. During a Distance Reiki session, we will connect together online and I will guide you through the session and channel the Reiki energy directly to you as you sit or lie comfortably.

Although we are not in the same room, client's often report feeling a deeper sense of relaxation because they are in their own environment.

Similar to the in-person session, at the end we will have a chat about your experience and I will pass on any channeled guidance from my Spirit team that I may have received during the session.


What do I need to prepare?

All you need to do is wear something comfortable and stay well hydrated as hydration is crucial when working with energy.

If you have booked an online Distance Reiki Session, please ensure that you find somewhere comfortable where you won't be disturbed for the duration of the session. You may sit or lie down, whichever feels most relaxing for you.
