From the Reiki Healing Association…I’m a member and this is a wonderful explanation for those that have not tried it and want to know what it is. Energy is a real part of your being. It needs tending to like all the other parts of you. Give it a try!
What does Reiki feel like?
💚Sensations of warmth or heat are frequently reported during Reiki sessions. This warmth is often felt in the areas being treated or in the hands of the practitioner, and it's associated with the flow of energy.
💚Sensations of energy pulsing or flowing through the body are also reported. It might feel like waves of energy moving through different areas. Some individuals describe feeling tingling sensations, like gentle vibrations, as Reiki is administered.
💚One of the most common reactions to Reiki is a deep sense of relaxation and calm, akin to a deep state of meditation.
💚A feeling of lightness or expansion is also often reported. This might involve a sensation of energy spreading out beyond the physical body. Like a breath of fresh air for your spirit.
💚 During a session, individuals may experience emotional releases such as tears, laughter, or feelings of profound peace and contentment.
💚Reiki can quiet the chatter of the mind, bringing a sense of mental clarity and inner peace.
💚Some people report seeing images, colours, or experiencing visualizations. These experiences can range from seeing bright lights or specific hues to intricate patterns and symbolic imagery.
💚 Not everyone feels distinct sensations during Reiki. Energy is subtle, and sometimes things are happening on deeper levels that may not necessary manifest as an noticeable external reaction. Perhaps a few days or weeks later you may feel calmer or less reactive to something that really bothered you before. Or you notice a general improvement in your overall well-being and resilience in the face of life’s challenges. Trust the Reiki energy to do what is needed. 😊💫
