All About Reiki

Reiki is an ancient yet simple healing technique and it has been found to produce profound results all through gentle touch, positive mindsets, and energy transfer. The principles themselves can be compared to affirmations or intentions, very much focused on the here and the now.


Similar to the practices we learn in a meditation or yoga class, there is no right or wrong way to incorporate reiki into your life. It can be used during meditation, as a morning intention, or whenever you need it. Simply put, reiki can help you receive whatever energy you need in the moment for you to not only be present, but to be the best version of yourself and to stay in balance.


Reiki can also be used for so many different reasons: emotional trauma healing, energy level balancing, or to develop yourself spiritually. Each person will find that reiki has endless advantages to them individually, as they need it.


"Reiki principles are there to encourage us to embody the reiki energy throughout the day, every day. They speak to the importance of one day at a time." —Reiki master Nina Endrst



What is Reiki?

Reiki is an energy healing technique in which a reiki practitioner uses gentle hand movements with the intention to guide the flow of healthy energy (what’s known in reiki as “life force energy”) through the client's body to reduce stress and promote healing. Reiki complements the other forms of self care and healing you likely already do on a regular bases (such as yoga, meditation, healthy eating, drinking water, etc.).


What are the benefits?

Reiki helps the body return to a state of relaxation, which allows it to potentially better heal from damage brought on by stress, injury, or disease. It is linked to a range of physical and emotional health benefits and takes a non-invasive approach to energy transfer that is extremely effective in promoting overall wellness. Through the energy transfer, the body is able to restore balance across all systems of the mind, body, and spirit. This creates harmony and allows people to continue in a positive lifestyle.
