During the session

I conduct my sessions in a dimly lit room, with soft ambient music and refreshing essences to relax the mind and body. 

 

During the first session, your first visit with me, I communicate with my clients during the whole session unless of course your body insists on silence due to an over stimulated nervous system in which I will then write down what comes up as I world over you.  This session always brings up a lot of information about you and what can be the cause of certain things within one's life path that is keeping you stuck.  Depending on the person, most of my clients have had immense life changing experiences as to why certain things happen the way they have, and they have been able to move on from certain traumatic events or fears that have consumed one's life.  This session can bring up past lives, trauma and certain behaviours and patterns one has not been able to pinpoint.  At the end of the session, once again depending on the person, some people leave feeling lighter and more excited about the future and unfortunately, some people can find it difficult and end up having flu like symptoms which I believe is often felt due to the inability of allowing oneself to let go or forgive the past.  

​

If you have a questions or issue, then please DO speak up at any time during the session. I want the best for you and to make your session the best experience possible.  I would also be happy to hear what your experience was like and how you feel during or after the session.

​

What does Reiki healing feel like?

My hands can get very warm and sometimes extremely hot, and you the client may feel a subtle tingling, heat, or energy, or nothing at all. Each person responds to Reiki differently, the sensations or lack of are just how your particular body senses energy. You may feel at peace and calm in your mind or physically in general. It is different for all clients, but relaxation is almost always felt afterwards and many of my clients yawn profusely and often go home for a nap but feel completely energized the next day.  

​

Can I drive after my session?

Yes, after your session you will be in your full awake state but possibly feel more relaxed and centered.  A glass of water is offered to my clients after their session is completed.  This allows you to bring yourself back to center and help with being present/grounded.  If you wish to leave immediately after your session, I ask that you drink water and go for a quick brisk walk to ensure you are fully awake and alert before driving.

​​

After I leave my session, should I do anything special?

I do recommend taking the day off work, but I understand that this is not possible for some people.  Some simple steps to take after your session:

 

- Please drink plenty of warm or room temperature water to hydrate your body to help with the elimination of toxins.  Avoid caffeine if possible.

- Be kind and gentle with yourself in your thoughts, your words and your actions

- Take a nap if possible or go to bed earlier than usual.  If you are heading in to or back to work, I only recommend a 10min power nap during your break, any longer and you may wake feeling fatigued

- Have some quiet time.  Journal any insights that come up.  A repeating pattern in your life may present itself to you for acknowledgement and healing.

 

​Are there any medical conditions where I should not receive Reiki?

Reiki is a wonderful complement in a health or wellness plan. It supports your work with your primary care providers.

​

If I have the flu or a contagious disease should I have a Reiki session?

No. As a kindness to me, your practitioner, please wait until you are feeling better and not contagious before scheduling a session.

​​

Can you have too much Reiki?

No, Reiki is beneficial and works with your body’s energy.  I will say though, give your body at least a week in order for it to realign and recalibrate from the previous session.  You will know when to return by listening to your body.  In fact, your own energetic body is in control of how much Reiki it wants and needs during the session and utilises it accordingly. Like breathing, you will comfortably take in as much as you need to support you.
