What is Reiki? A Modern Guide to Ancient Healing

Reiki is a deep, gentle and transformative form of energy healing that originated in Japan over a century ago. At its heart, Reiki is simple: it is the universal life force energy that flows through everything; you, me, nature, the cosmos and when channelled with intention, it supports the mind, body and spirit in returning to balance.

Reiki is not bound by the physical world. Energy does not recognise distance, walls, postcode or time which is why Reiki can be experienced just as powerfully across a room, across the country, or even across the world. Whether we are side by side or connected through a remote session, the frequency meets you exactly where you are.

My role as a Reiki practitioner is not to heal you but to hold space, anchor energy, and act as a channel for the universal source to move through my hands and reach you. I am simply the bridge. The healing belongs to you. The energy knows where it needs to go, and it always moves with intention for your highest good. Sessions often feel warm, soothing, grounding and deeply safe like your nervous system finally exhales.

How Reiki Works Within the Body & Aura

Reiki works through energetic frequency. Just like your physical body has blood flow, breath, lymph; your energetic body has channels, meridians and chakras that carry your life force.

When energy becomes stagnant or blocked, we may feel:

• Emotionally overwhelmed

• Mentally scattered or anxious

• Physically tense, fatigued or low in vitality

• Spiritually disconnected, ungrounded, or uninspired

  
  

Reiki meets these blockages like warm light melting ice, it clears, rebalances and reactivates your system so energy can move freely again.

This process naturally supports:

✨ Nervous system regulation

✨ Emotional release + heart opening

✨ Mental clarity + inner calm

✨ Chakra alignment + energetic detox

✨ Spiritual connection + intuition activation

✨ Better sleep, mood, peace and clarity

Reiki doesn't force change, it invites it. Your body remembers how to heal itself once the pathway is clear.

Why Energy Cleansing Matters

We absorb energy every single day from conversations, environments, past memories we still carry, or beliefs that no longer fit who we are becoming. Energy sticks to us the way dust settles on furniture. You don’t always notice it happening, but eventually you feel the weight. Reiki is like opening the windows of your soul, letting the light in, sweeping out what has been sitting too long.

When stagnant energy is released, you will naturally feel lighter, clearer and more connected to your intuition. Life feels less heavy. Decisions become easier. You return to yourself, the part of you that has always known the way.

This is the gift of Reiki.

Not a quick fix.

Not a magic trick.

But a remembering.

A returning home.

What You May Experience in a Session

Everyone receives Reiki differently, because every soul needs something unique. Some people feel waves of warmth, tingles or deep peace. Others see colours, visions, emotional release or fall into the most restful sleep they’ve had in months.

All are valid.

All are healing.

You don’t need to believe for it to work.

You only need to be willing to receive.

Reiki is an invitation… to soften, to release, to open, to rise.
