Reiki (pronounced ray key) was founded by a Japanese man by the name of Usui Mikao. Usai was a Buddhist and he began his teachings in 1922. After Usai passed, one of his students’ Dr Chujiro Hayashi, turned the healing practices towards healing illness, and started his own healing school. It was at this time he named the healing method Reiki.
What is Reiki
I find people have a better understanding of reiki once they have experienced it.
So, to explain Reiki in words - Reiki is a natural healing modality that uses life force energy. Reiki practitioners act as transmitters, tapping into the energy around us, and transferring this energy flow into the client. This energy assists your body, mind and spirit to heal wherever it is needed.
A few reasons people may come to see me include stress relief, release blockages, help to find clarity, help you make a decision you are finding difficult to make, heal ailments, balance and align your body and assist you to live a happy, healthy, balanced life.
The changes you may experience after reiki treatment/s can be very subtle, such as it may be a change in your mindset; things that used to upset you, no longer do; you may sleep better; you may feel healthier and happier; you may find clarity in your decision making; you may feel more confident and you may be more relaxed and at peace with your life.
What you experience during a Reiki Session
This varies greatly from person to person, but one thing most people report is feeling relaxed and calm after a treatment. Some people fall asleep, some feel very heavy like they are glued to the table, some see flashes of coloured light, some feel tingling or heat.
A treatment will generally last between 45mins to an hour. You will lay on a massage table generally face up, fully clothed with your eyes closed. The process involves me using my hands to transmit the healing energy, and directing it into your body. While I place my hands over or lightly on specific areas of the head, limbs and torso, the transfer of energy takes place. During this process, the energy will work to balance your bodies chakras, clear any negative energy and blockages & will intuitively travel to the different parts of the body wherever healing may be required.
I was first introduced to Reiki in 2017. I have always had an interest in natural forms of healing and wellness, so felt the need to investigate Reiki and how it worked, which lead me to enrol in a level one Reiki course. I found it fascinating and so carried on to complete level 2 and level 3 – master level. I feel so grateful to have discovered Reiki and I continue the journey to grow and learn - seeking to become the best version of myself. Helping others to achieve their personal goals in life - be it self belief, self love, peace, good health, self confidence, healing or just to wake up feeling happy to start each day gives me a great deal of joy and gratitude.
