What is Reiki?
Reiki (pronounced “Ray-Key”) is a Japanese technique that focuses on energy healing. The idea behind Reiki is that all living things have energy that flows through them. Sometimes, this energy can get blocked, especially when we’re feeling stressed or anxious. Reiki healing helps clear these energy blocks, making people feel calm and refreshed.
How Does Reiki Work?
During a Reiki session, a trained practitioner (the person who does Reiki) gently places their hands on or near your body. The goal is to guide energy to areas where it’s needed. This process feels deeply relaxing, and many people describe it as a gentle warmth spreading through their body.
Why Do People Try Reiki?
People come to Reiki for lots of reasons, including:
Stress Relief: Reiki can help people feel more relaxed, which can reduce stress.
Better Sleep: Some people find it easier to sleep after Reiki sessions.
Emotional Balance: Reiki can help people feel more at peace, especially if they’re going through difficult times.
Physical Relaxation: Reiki can help release tension in the body, making people feel less tight and more comfortable.
Can Anyone Try Reiki?
Yes, Reiki is safe for all ages! It doesn’t involve any medicine or physical force, so it’s gentle enough for everyone. Whether you’re a student, an athlete, or someone who just wants to feel calmer, Reiki might be a great fit for you.
What to Expect in a Reiki Session
During a session, you’ll usually lie down fully clothed and relax while the practitioner places their hands lightly on or above your body. Sessions often last around 30-60 minutes, and there’s no need to “do” anything—just relax! People often describe feeling very peaceful and even falling asleep.
