** Remote Reiki Sessions**

Reiki is a wonderfully restorative energy bodywork modality that can be used to promote the well-being of the body, mind and spirit. Reiki is energy so it's not bound by distance and can literally be sent anywhere. Therefore, a remote session is just as effective as in-person sessions.

Reiki is an extremely soothing and relaxing form of energy body work. It helps clear dense, stagnant energy from the body's energy meridians, as well as from the major energy centers, called chakras. In this state, the body's own inherent healing ability is optimized. Ultimately, this promotes and supports the health and well-being of not just your body, but your mind and spirit as well.

Benefits

Many people choose Reiki as a stress management modality because of its calming effects. I think we're all aware of how stress affects our sense of well-being. It causes muscle knots, headaches, digestive issues, skin rashes, etc. Stressful emotions get stuck in the body and cause all sorts of discomfort if they're not released. Since Reiki helps to restore optimal energy flow, and is very effective at helping to release stuck emotions, it often leads to a reduction in these stress-related physical symptoms. Reiki can ensure a peaceful night's sleep if you've been having bouts of insomnia. If you've been feeling lethargic, it can make you feel energized. In fact, the Reiki provides whatever you're in most need of at the time of your session - and that may or may not be what YOU think you need! In general, by restoring the proper energy flow through your energy system, Reiki helps create an internal environment that optimizes your body's own inherent healing abilities. Most important of all, it can't harm you and is safe for everyone of all ages.

What to Expect

A serene environment that's conducive to your comfort and relaxation is the basis of any Reiki session. For a remote session, feel free to create any atmosphere you feel will enhance your experience. That might include dim lighting or candles, relaxing scents and soothing background music. I would suggest you either sit in a comfortable chair, such as a recliner, or lie down on a comfortable surface.

To administer the Reiki, I'll intuitively connect with your energy body and work on each of your major chakras (main energy centers of the body), and also other areas on the extremities that have significant energy meridians running through them.

A typical Reiki session lasts anywhere from 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Since clients often have question or experiences they wish to discuss following a session, this time is also offered as part of the session. I would suggest you plan your session for a date and time that provides some flexibility to allow for this.

Additional Comments

I've been a Reiki practitioner and teacher for over 20 years. I've seen Reiki do some amazing, and sometimes, astonishing things, for the people I've worked with. As someone who started my Reiki journey at a time when most people had never even heard of it, I can tell you that I'm thrilled it has progressed to being a modality that is now widely known for its benefits. Many large hospitals even include Reiki in their cancer support therapies and elderly care. It's come a long way in a couple of decades, I can tell you that! And that's because while most people don't understand how it works, once they experience it, they know THAT it works. To many people, it still sounds a bit "woo-woo", but I can attest to the fact that once they give it a try, they typically return for more.
