Information about Reiki

The word "Reiki" is derived from two Japanese words: "rei," which means universal or spiritual, and "ki," which means life force energy. 

What is Reiki?

Reiki is a form of alternative therapy known as energy healing that originated in Japan in the early 20th century. Reiki practitioners believe that there is a universal life force energy that flows through all living things and that they are a conduit to channel this energy ( through training) to promote healing, and relaxation.

Reiki treats individuals holistically, restoring balance in the body, it has its own innate intelligence. Reiki energy naturally flows to the areas of the physical/emotional/energetic body most in need of healing, releasing energy blocks that are held in the body and in the energy field 

Reiki offers many potential health benefits, including relaxation, stress and anxiety reduction, pain alleviation, and a sense of well-being. Reiki is often used as a complementary therapy alongside conventional medical treatments, helping to alleviate discomfort and promote wellness and the body's natural healing processes.

Reiki encourages and empowers you to take responsibility for your own health and well-being.  Healing is not linear and commitment to your healing 

 is key, you need to take responsibility for changing the root cause of the problems. This may involve making lifestyle changes, to support your well-being.

How does Reiki work?

We all have an energy field that surrounds us that is linked to our thoughts, feelings and physical body. When we are balanced the energy flows freely along pathways (meridians) and centres (chakras). 

When we hold on to negative thoughts and feelings from past experiences, our energy does not flow freely, thus creating blockages in our energy field. 

The Reiki healing technique helps clear the energy blocks and encourages the natural, healthy energy flow. After a treatment the vibratory level of your whole energy field will be raised.

During a typical Reiki session, I will place my hands lightly on or near your body, but you will only ever feel a gentle touch. Reiki energy is so gentle that it will flow to where the body needs it, all you need to be open to receive it.

Reiki is not limited by time or distance. The distant or remote Reiki sessions I provide have become increasingly popular, allowing me to send healing energy to individuals regardless of their physical location. This aspect of Reiki makes it accessible to everyone because it enables people to experience its benefits even in challenging circumstances.

Reiki can lead to profound personal transformation, making it a valuable addition to your holistic approach to health and well-being. Whether you are curious about experiencing Reiki or becoming a practitioner, it offers a unique and spiritually enriching path to healing and self-discovery.
