I feel incredibly honoured to offer Reiki sessions within some of my local care homes.

These sessions are gentle and calming, supporting relaxation, emotional wellbeing and a sense of comfort. Many residents leave feeling more settled, at ease and deeply relaxed. And it’s such a privilege to witness those quiet moments of calm.

Reiki is especially suited to care home environments as it’s non-invasive, can be done seated or resting comfortably and is adapted to meet residents exactly where they are.

I am a full member of the UK Reiki Federation and am fully insured, ensuring sessions are delivered to highest professional standards.

Reiki can be offered as one to one sessions or in a small group session of up to four residents, allowing each person to receive gentle, individualised support in a safe and caring environment.

If you work in or manage a care home and would like to explore Reiki for your residents, message me for more information, tag a care home, or save this post for later.

Ever wish your mind had an off button?

If your thoughts race at night, your body feels tense for no reason, you’re constantly on edge, the mental noise that just won’t quiten?

That’s your nervous system asking for support - not a personal failure. Reiki works by helping your body switch out of fight-or-flight and into deep rest, where real healing can happen.

✨ Calm your mind
✨ Release stored tension
✨ Feel grounded again

You don’t need to wait until burnout forces you to stop.

Book your Reiki session now and give your nervous system what it’s been asking for.
Spaces are limited — once they’re gone, they’re gone.

The Science Behind Reiki — What We Do Know

Reiki is classed as a biofield therapy, working with the body’s natural energy systems.
While science can’t yet directly measure life force energy, the effects of Reiki on the nervous system and wellbeing have been studied.

What research shows:

Reiki activates the parasympathetic nervous system — your body’s rest & heal mode — helping you shift out of stress and into balance.

Studies show Reiki can:
• Lower heart rate
• Reduce blood pressure
• Decrease cortisol (stress hormone)
• Improve heart rate variability (HRV)

Clinical trials and hospital studies have shown Reiki can significantly reduce:
• Chronic pain
• Anxiety
• Fatigue
• Depression symptoms

These effects appear even in people who don’t believe in Reiki, and in animals, infants, and unconscious patients — suggesting the results go beyond placebo.

Emerging research into the body’s electromagnetic and cellular communication systems is beginning to explain how subtle energy therapies may support the body’s natural regulation.

The bottom line:
Reiki is a clinically observed relaxation and regulation therapy that calms the nervous system, reduces pain and stress, improves emotional wellbeing, and supports the body’s natural healing processes.

Science may not yet explain exactly how Reiki works — but it clearly shows that it does.

“I am now handling situations that used to give me anxiety, with such ease”

This is something I hear from my clients all the time after they’ve started their healing journey.

Not because life suddenly becomes perfect —
but because their nervous system finally feels safe.

When your body isn’t constantly in fight or flight, everything changes…
your thoughts soften
your reactions slow
your world feels lighter.

This is the work we do in Reiki - gentle, powerful, deeply grounding.

If your body feels tired of being in survival mode, this is your sign.

How to handle stressful family dynamics during festive period

Family gatherings can bring love, laughter ……. and sometimes old patterns, triggers and tension.

If family dynamics feel heavy, here are a few gentle reminders:

🤍 You don’t have to engage in every conversation … Silence and stepping away are powerful boundaries.

🤍 Pause before reacting …A slow breath can stop you being pulled into old roles.

🤍 You’re allowed to say no … No explanations needed. Protecting your peace is enough.

🤍 Not everything needs fixing … You can love people without carrying their emotions.

🤍 Ground yourself often … Feel your feet, breathe deeply, come back to you.

This season is about connection — but not at the cost of your wellbeing.

Have a good Christmas, and be good to yourself 🤍✨

How to protect your energy this Christmas 🎄

Christmas can be magical…
but it can also be loud, emotional, busy and draining.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, here are a few gentle ways to protect your energy over the festive season:

✨ You don’t have to attend everything, do everything or be everything to everyone
✨ It’s okay to say no without explaining
✨ Take breaks — even 5 minutes of quiet helps
✨ Limit time with people who leave you feeling heavy
✨ Ground yourself before and after social situations
✨ Rest is productive — especially now

Your energy is precious.
Protecting it isn’t selfish, it’s necessary

Wishing you a peaceful Christmas — and a gentle reminder to be good to yourself 🤍

As we step into the cosy glow of the festive season, I’ll be taking a little break to rest, recharge and spend time with loved ones.

When was the last time you did… absolutely nothing?

Not scrolling.
Not planning.
Not thinking about the next thing on your to-do list.

Just being.
Just breathing.
Just resting without earning it first.

In my healing space, you’re allowed to switch off completely — guilt free.
Your nervous system needs moments like this more than you realise.

This isn’t laziness.
It’s nourishment.
It’s repair.
It’s balance.

If your mind has been busy for too long… maybe it’s time to practice the art we’ve forgotten.
✨ Doing nothing — and allowing yourself to be held.

Message to book your moment of nothingness.

Self-care isn’t just bubble baths… it’s this ↓

It’s choosing the kind of care that actually shifts something inside you.
The kind that calms your nervous system instead of just distracting it.
The kind that helps you breathe deeper, feel lighter, and finally stop running on empty.

Self-care is:
✨ Saying no when your body whispers “I’m done”
✨ Releasing the tension you’ve been carrying for months
✨ Letting someone support you for once
✨ Making space for healing, not just coping
✨ Giving your energy a reset so you can feel like yourself again

A bath is lovely…
But it won’t move stuck emotion, rebalance your energy, or bring you back into your body.
That’s the deeper work.

If you’re ready to look after yourself in a way that actually lasts — not just for the evening — my Reiki and healing sessions are here for you.

Ready for your reset?

✨ Why You Won’t Be “Fixed” in One Session ✨

I know it’s tempting to hope that one session will magically undo months — or even years — of stress, tension, and emotional strain.

But your body doesn’t work that way… and that’s actually a good thing.

Your nervous system heals in layers.
Your body unwinds little by little.
Your energy shifts when it feels safe, supported, and not rushed.

A single session can absolutely bring release, clarity, calm, and comfort — and many people feel a big change right away.

But real, lasting transformation happens with consistency. That’s where the deeper work takes place. That’s when old patterns begin to soften. That’s when your body finally stops bracing and starts healing.

Think of it like going to the gym: one good workout feels great, but it’s the repeated sessions that truly strengthen you.

If you’re ready for healing that doesn’t just “patch over” the problem but actually supports your whole system… I’m here for you.
