What's Distance Reiki?
Distance Reiki feels just like receiving Reiki in-person, the difference being that you don’t actually have to come to see me at my location, you can stay at home, or receive healing energy from wherever you are in the world. It’s great for people who travel frequently for work or to see family.
How does Distance Reiki work?
Whether you book a session online or through email, I check in with you via email to see what you’d like me to work with, and whether you have physical pain or tension, or emotional/mental stress, Reiki can help you feel better sooner. I also incorporate any intentions you want into your session. Some intentions my clients often set are feeling more calm and grounded, feeling more self-confidence, more energetic, clear-headed, or joyful, or settling down to have more restful sleep. I then go into a deep meditation using Reiki and send you Reiki which most clients feel in real time. With some clients there is a slight time delay but they still receive it in the end.
My distance Reiki clients often report feeling deeply relaxed, at peace, and more emotional balance after their session.
How do I prepare for a session?
Before your scheduled session time, grab some pillows and a blanket, and maybe an eye pillow if you like. Turn off any devices nearby, and let anyone in your living space know that you’re not available during your 15-20min session. Many people prefer to lie down on a couch or bed to receive distance Reiki, but you can also be seated with your eyes closed if that works better for you.
After your session I’ll email you immediately with what I felt as well as any intuitive insights I gained during your session, and often a simple self-care tip. I love helping my clients find healing relief in this way and it’s a great way to support your health and wellness if you have to cancel your in-person session unexpectedly, have travel-related tension, pain, or stress while out of town, have difficulty seeing me in person due to debilitating health conditions, live far away, or just to supplement your regularly scheduled Reiki and massage sessions.
