Reiki - What is it all about?

So, let's jump straight in... what on earth is reiki? How does it work and what is it for?

These are all wonderful questions which I often get asked.

In a nutshell

Reiki is an ancient Japanese technique which uses universal energy to help reduce stress and promote relaxation, this in turn supports our natural ability to heal.

This is really for everyone and anyone who feels like that would like more support, relaxation and inner calm. . Reiki works on the body, mind and spirit as a whole making it a holistic treatment. However, don't worry if you aren't a particularly spiritual person, or you don't believe it, reiki works no matter if you believe in it or not.

My own journey to reiki

Through teaching yoga I began to notice the exchange that can happen between teacher and student from an energetic perspective. I am also very interested in the chakras and the subtle body system through my own personal practice of yoga. So as time went by, I was becoming more conscious and aware of energy. I then energetically began to open myself up to the possibilities of what reiki could offer (getting a bit deep and high end now ha!...). I invited reiki in, in through a spiritual sense I suppose. As soon as I did this, it fell into place as I felt lots of signs were guiding me towards it. I met a friend who started talking about reiki, that was a sign. I taught yoga to someone who asked if I did reiki, that was a sign. I started to teach more chakra yoga, that was a sign too. I felt as though my life was aligning and guiding me to reach out for reiki. From here I started going for regular treatments to experience reiki for myself. It was a comforting and hugely positive experience for me and I gained so much just from one treatment. I still to this day go for regular treatments, as well as doing my own self-treatments, I love them so much. Of course, as with everything, everyone's experience is different, but I have found reiki, fascinating, insightful, nourishing and relaxing. I feel as though a treatment activates my own inner "reset" button. My whole being can shift into a lighter more open state and helps to make me feel restored.
