How does Distance Reiki healing work?

Distance Reiki healing is a powerful and effective energy healing that transcends physical boundaries. Through intention, focus, and the universal life force energy, practitioners can facilitate healing in individuals who are not physically present. The practitioner taps into the interconnectedness of all things and channels healing energy to the recipient, regardless of their physical location. This is made possible because energy is not limited by time or space. The practitioner and recipient establish a sacred connection through intention and visualization, allowing the healing energy to flow and address the recipient's physical, emotional, and spiritual needs. Distance Reiki healing leverages the power of intention, along with the inherent energy field that connects us all, to bring about healing and balance on a profound level.

Join me on Zoom for a Distance Reiki healing experience where I can use a photograph of you, a Reiki healing grid or diagram, or a stuffed animal or doll as a proxy.

What will I experience during my distance healing process?

PREPARING FOR YOUR SESSION — Before the beginning of your session, find a quiet place where you can lie back and be undisturbed. Grab a blanket, pillow, headphones, eyemask, or anything else to help you get comfortable.

CONNECTING ON ZOOM — A Zoom link to access the call will be sent to you with your appointment confirmation at the time of booking. Once connected on the Zoom call, we will spend a few minutes creating a healing intention for the Reiki session and establishing our energetic connection. I will also take a few moments to check in with your Chakra energy centers to see where there may be an imbalance. We will discuss where these imbalances may be showing up in your world.

I’ll take notes during the session and send you a recap afterwards.

RECEIVING THE REIKI — As we begin the flow of Reiki, I will guide you through a visualization/guided meditation process with a few minutes of a breathwork exercise to help you relax. The breathwork is powerful in quieting your mind and connecting your awareness to your body. As you continue to relax and receive the Reiki energy flow, it’s common to feel a gentle warmth or tingling sensation in the area being treated or throughout your body. Some people feel a range of emotions, such as joy, sadness, or even a sense of relief, during or after a session. It’s important to note that these experiences can vary and may not be the same for everyone. Each person’s experience with distance Reiki is unique and can be influenced by their energy system, receptivity, and the specific intention set during the session.

We can send Reiki to a specific area in your body, all through your energy centers, and also any situation, or challenge that you may be facing at this time.

CLOSING THE SESSION — As we complete the flow of Reiki, we will take a few moments where you can share your experience or insight you received, ask questions, and digest your experience. I will also share any energetic insights I received or impressions that came to me during the session.

POST-REIKI SESSION CARE — The following 48 hours after your Reiki session is critical in your Reiki process as the energy will continue to work and to integrate. It’s also not uncommon to notice emotions releasing during this time and gentle detox symptoms. Practicing self-care during this time is highly recommended to reduce discomfort through increased hydration to support your body’s detoxification process, giving yourself increased downtime to rest and relax, and time and space for reflection and journaling. It’s also helpful to avoid excess sugar, caffeine, or alcohol during this time.

Distance Reiki is just as effective as an in-person session, and offers an individual experience each time.

Benefits of Distance Reiki

Convenience and Flexibility — Imagine receiving the rejuvenating effects of Reiki without leaving the comfort of your own home. Whether you're a busy professional, or a devoted parent, Distance Reiki ensures you can access the healing energy whenever and wherever you desire. For some, connecting in the comfort of your own space can help you access deeper levels of healing.

Deep Relaxation and Stress Relief — Our lives are often filled with stress and tension, affecting our overall well-being. Distance Reiki expertly dissolves these barriers, allowing you to enter a state of deep relaxation and foster inner peace. Regardless of your physical location, the transformative energy of Reiki flows through you, releasing blockages and promoting calmness in your mind, body, and spirit.

Emotional Healing and Balance: Distance Reiki is not bound by time and space, making it an ideal choice for emotional healing and balance. Perhaps you're seeking assistance in dealing with past traumas, anxiety, or grief. Through the power of Distance Reiki, you'll experience profound emotional release, increased self-awareness, and a restored sense of harmony.

Enhanced Intuition and Spiritual Growth: Distance Reiki is not limited to physical healing; it also nourishes your spiritual self. The healing energy gently penetrates the layers of your being, opening channels for intuitive guidance and spiritual growth. As the energetic blockages dissolve, your intuition strengthens, enabling you to make more conscious choices and live a life aligned with your soul's purpose.

Supportive and Nurturing Connection: In this fast-paced world, feeling supported and nurtured is essential. Distance Reiki provides a profound connection between practitioner and client, fostering a healing bond even across vast distances.

Recommended Reading for Self Healing

I often find myself recommending books and resources to heal clients at the end of their sessions to be able to continue the work they do on their self-healing journey. I figured it’s time to create a compilation list. Check back often for updates!

21 Day Reiki Cleanse

So you’ve just taken your first Reiki class, and you want to know what to expect beyond your experience in class! During your Reiki class experience, much of your being is shifted, and opened up to be able to receive and transmit the Reiki healing energy.

The 21 day cleanse experience will follow each placement or ignition of Reiki energy (formerly referred to as attunements) and is the result of the placement/ignition removing energetic and spiritual blocks, as well as stagnant energy from the chakras. Your placement/ignition process also has opened up your chakras in order for you to be more receptive and “tuned in” to the energies around you.

The 21 days after class, you may have a lot come up that is ready to be released. Old emotions, belief systems, and old experiences that have kept you stuck.

The following symptoms during your 21 day cleansing period are completely normal:

1- Fatigue and Tiredness

2- Emotional release (both bouts of laughter, crying and anger are ok)

3- A shift in your sleep patterns, or restless sleep

4- Heightened senses and increased sensitivity

5- Vivid dreams

If you experience any of the above, you are not alone, and it is all completely normal. This is just your body acclimating to all of the new energies that you are opening up to. Let the process happen naturally, and without judgement if possible. There are a few things that can alleviate any extreme symptoms:

1- Perform a daily reiki self treatment

2- Check in with your Reiki buddy or your Reiki teacher

3- Prioritize deep practices of self care - epsom salt baths, extra rest or naps

4- Make sure you are drinking plenty of water

5- Spend time outside in nature

6- Gentle movement of your body (dance, yoga, walks outside)

Please avoid for the next 21 days:

1- drugs and alcohol

2- high sugar foods

3- excessive caffeine or stimulants

Toward the end of the 21 days, your symptoms should diminish. Prioritizing daily self Reiki treatments can help any discomfort, and also to help keep you grounded.

A Reiki class for cool people.

Healing is not a thing or a desitination to see outside of yourself. Yes, some people and guideposts can help you along the way. However, true healing is a remembrance of something that stems from within.

My journey of offering Reiki classes stems from this notion. To empower the healer that already exists inside of you. And not to be dependent on others around you to create a shift inside of your world.

This month I rolled out the maiden voyage of my Usui/Holy Fire III® Reiki I/II training. Not only was this an initiation for me as a teacher but also for these ladies embarking on a more profound journey on their healing path.

Along with the traditional Usui teachings of Reiki, history, how-to’s, and the process of using this healing system, the students participated in a depth of experiences to help go deeper into their healing process. A big part of this is to look at the synergistic relationship of giving and receiving and understand that when we disrupt this energy flow, we create dis-ease and imbalance in our bodies, minds, emotions, and spirit.

When I set out to begin offering Reiki classes, I wanted to weave in some of my own practices and tools that I have also used throughout my experience to help go deeper into my spirit, get in touch with my intuition, and “activate” my own inner guidance system a little more.

In my Reiki classes you'll experience and learn about powerful practices and rituals that help create energy, release energy, tap into abundance, and help you to let go of lack and scarcity. You'll also get in touch with your spirit guides, learn a powerful Breathwork meditation exercise, experience hands on crystal healing, and connect with others who will all reflect your healing path right back to you.

My next available Usui/Holy Fire III® Reiki class will be on January 21st and 22nd in Bountiful, Utah and registration is now open!
