The vulnerability of your first Reiki session, let’s talk about it
Saw a bodyworker talk around this. 👏🏻
It’s something I don’t think is spoken about enough, especially with Angelic Reiki.
it can sound a bit out there at first. Even a bit strange, or something you’re not quite sure you believe in. Some people quietly wonder if it might even be a bit… scammy. And that’s okay to acknowledge.
You don’t have to arrive believing anything.
Most people come because they feel a pull, or they just know they need to slow down and be held for a moment.
Your first session can feel a little… exposing. in a very human way.
You’re lying down, eyes closed, not needing to do anything or be anything. You’re receiving, rather than holding it all together. And for a lot of us, that’s actually quite new.
Sometimes people feel emotional, sometimes there’s a quiet sense of release, sometimes you just feel deeply relaxed, and sometimes you don’t feel much at all in the moment. All of it is completely normal.
Nothing is ever forced in my sessions. Your body and energy will only open to what feels safe and ready.
And actually, that’s where so much of the benefit is.
For those o who are used to being the one who holds everything together, who gives, who thinks, who stay a little in control, learning to receive in a safe space can be really powerful.
It allows your nervous system to soften, your body to come out of that constant doing mode, and creates space for real rest, clarity, and gentle emotional release.
And I’ll say this honestly, because I think it matters, I’ve seen some really incredible shifts in clients through this work.
People feeling calmer in themselves, sleeping better, processing things they’ve held onto for a long time, feeling more like themselves again. Not overnight miracles, but real, steady changes that build over time.
You don’t need to force anything for that to happen. It’s often the softness of the space that allows it.
Afterwards, you might feel calm, a little softer, or just like you’ve had a really good rest. Occasionally you can feel a bit more inward for a few hours, and that’s just your system integrating.
I’ll always make sure yo
