Kia ora whānau ✨
People often ask me what Reiki actually is and how it works.
The easiest way I explain it is this…
Reiki is a gentle healing practice that works with universal life force energy.
In te ao Māori we understand this through things like wairua, mauri and energy within the body.
Sometimes through stress, trauma, grief, or life experiences our energy can become heavy, blocked or out of balance. When that happens we may feel tired, overwhelmed, anxious or disconnected from ourselves.
Reiki helps to move and rebalance that energy.
When I work with someone, I’m not using my own energy. I allow healing energy to flow through my hands to support the tinana (body), hinengaro (mind) and wairua (spirit) to settle and restore balance.
It’s a very gentle process. Many people feel warmth, relaxation, emotional release or deep peace during a session.
In my space I also hold the healing with intention and respect for wairua, so the experience honours both Reiki and te ao Māori.
Healing is not about fixing you.
It’s about helping you reconnect back to yourself.
✨ If you’ve ever wondered what Reiki feels like, you’re welcome to experience it for yourself.
