What Happens in a Reiki Session?

Reiki can be used for a specific physical, mental, emotional, or spiritual concern, or it can be used to simply feel more relaxed and connected.  First, we will identify what brought you to a healing session.

​

Next, you will lay face-up on a comfortable table, fully clothed.  I will step out of the room for a moment to connect to the Reiki energy and my guides, and to say a prayer that will ensure I am working to deliver whatever it is you need in this session.  I will ask you to take a few deep breaths as you relax and listen to soothing music.

​

With your permission, I will call in any angels, guides, and spirit helpers that are working for the best interest of your souls journey.  

​

A typical session is an hour.  I will work in silence, moving from head to toe, with my hands laid gently on the body, or hovering above the body.  I focus on the main chakra energy systems of the body, but also work intuitively to bring attention to whatever area needs healing.  

​

When the session is over, there will be time to discuss how you are feeling, and answer any questions.  I will also ask if you are interested in hearing any messages that I received during the session.

​

How does it work?  What exactly is happening?

As a Reiki practitioner, I received training that allows me to attune to a clients energy, and help connect it to the life force energy of the universe that is available to us all.  Reiki works with the power of intention.  I simply hold space for your body and spirit to receive whatever it needs in this moment.  The practitioner does not 'do' anything but act as a clear channel for the Divine to do the work that is needed.  We all have a cosmic intelligence within us that knows exactly what we need.  Reiki is a way to get quiet and remember the truth - that we are all reflections of perfect health and love.  In this process, blockages might be released, energetic tears repaired, negative energy dissolved, past or present life traumas healed, and problems are resolved on a mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual level.  

​

What does it feel like?

The experience feels differently for each person, and often will differ each session.  Some common experiences include: falling asleep, relaxing into a meditative state, feeling hot/cold sensations, waves or vibrations throughout the body, twitching, etc.  Some people may find it difficult to relax and quiet the mind, but that is not required for Reiki to be effective.  It will work on whatever level is available for healing in the moment.  

​

How often should I get Reiki?  

Some people only get reiki when they are going through a difficult time, to help them connect with their true selves and find answers and healings to specific issues.  For deep or persistent issues, it might be advisable to receive 1-2 sessions per week until you feel it has resolved.  Due to the chaotic pace of our world, I recommend that everyone receive reiki or some type of energy work on a monthly basis for general health and wellness.
