Reiki is a gentle, natural form of energy healing that helps bring balance to the body, mind, and spirit. If you’ve ever felt stressed, stuck, or energetically drained, Reiki offers a calming way to reset and reconnect with yourself. Whether you're brand new to energy healing or looking to deepen your self-care routine, a Reiki session can be a powerful and transformative experience.
What Is Reiki?
Reiki (pronounced ray-key) is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. The word translates to “universal life energy,” and that’s exactly what Reiki works with—the energy that flows through all living things. A Reiki practitioner channels this energy through their hands, gently guiding it to where it’s needed most.
How Does a Reiki Session Work?
A typical session takes place in a quiet, comfortable space. You’ll lie down fully clothed on a massage table while soft music plays in the background to help you relax. The practitioner will either lightly place their hands on or just above your body, moving through different energy centres (chakras) and intuitive points.
Some people feel warmth, tingling, or a gentle flow of energy. Others simply feel peaceful or deeply relaxed. There’s no right or wrong way to experience Reiki—your body and spirit will receive exactly what they need.
Benefits of Reiki
Reiki can help with:
Reducing stress and anxiety
Easing physical discomfort
Releasing emotional blockages
Enhancing clarity and focus
Supporting the body’s natural healing processes
Deepening your spiritual connection
Even one session can leave you feeling lighter and more balanced, though regular sessions can offer deeper, long-term support.
After Your Session
After your Reiki session, give yourself time to rest and hydrate. You may notice shifts in your energy, emotions, or even dreams in the days that follow. These are signs that your body is processing and realigning.
It’s also a great time to journal, take a walk in nature, or simply listen to what your intuition is telling you. Reiki is subtle but profound—and the effects can ripple out gently over time.
