What is Reiki, anyway?

There is a rising awareness in adopting mindful practices that provide a sense of peace and wellbeing in the midst of this fast paced world. Work, devices and constant noise can interrupt your body's balance, showing up as stress, fatigue, anxiety or burnout. There are multiple ways to combat these manifestations. Nevertheless, at the end of the day, the right practice is what feels good to you. This will vary depending on your lifestyle and what activities you consider that provide you with a sense of renewal. It could look like movement, grounding, meditation or a holistic therapy such as Reiki.

Reiki is a therapy that through gentle touch and intention, the practitioner channels positive energy assisting the body's natural healing process. Reiki can support pain management, inflammation, emotional distress, nervous system regulation, insomnia, anxiousness and other imbalances. Because all the layers of the body benefit from Reiki (which is why it is holistic, it integrates all parts of our being) the flow of energy creates pathways for emotional, mental and spiritual shifts. Much like a current of water flowing through a river. When we are able to achieve this, transformation happens. You may begin to release oppressed emotions, limiting beliefs such as feelings of unworthiness, lack of confidence or self love, as well as processing trauma.

The good news is that you don't have to wait to feel out of balance to receive Reiki, as it can be a wonderful opportunity to give yourself a moment of rest and promote a continued sense of wellness. You may be asking, who can receive Reiki? The answer is: every living being. Yes! That means humans, plants and animals. Your favorite house plant and your loving pet may also enjoy the benefits of energy healing.
