Committing Yourself to Heal with Reiki
Healing with Reiki is not a completely passive process.
It may seem passive because during the Reiki session you’re lying on the table with your eyes closed, receiving the energy transmitted through the practitioner. But you can take action before and after the Reiki session to make the most of what Reiki has to offer on the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual levels.
The Reiki practitioner and the Reiki itself are the tools you use as you grow and heal in your life. No matter how gifted the healer or how powerful the Reiki, you participate in the healing process by being open to growth and change.
One way that Reiki works is by helping you to be open to such change. You may not want to change at first, but eventually, as you truly desire to feel better within yourself, you may see that certain changes will help.
You may notice changes in the following areas of your life:
- Your thought patterns: Reiki gives you insight into your underlying thoughts and beliefs that may hold you back from achieving your goals. Constant negative thinking brings about negative results. Positive thinking brings about positive results.
- Your physical lifestyle: Destructive behaviour or lifestyle choices conflict with growth and healing. For example, you may want to consider your eating and exercise habits and possible addictive behaviour. As you allow more healing through Reiki into your life, your behaviours become healthier. You don’t have to force the change; you’ll want to change.
- Your relationships: How you interact with others can bring joy or grief to yourself and the people around you. Reiki can help you become calmer so that you have more patience and tolerance with others (and yourself).
- Your job: Your paid work and other activities are other places for you to express your true self and contribute to the world. As you become more in touch with your inner self through Reiki, you might change your job or your relationship to your work.
How far you go with Reiki depends on how you follow up on your Reiki sessions. As a result of Reiki, you may get a thought that smoking is hurting you or you have to start singing. To benefit from Reiki, take the insights you get while on the Reiki table and put them into action.
Reiki combines well with all the healing arts, whether they’re complementary treatments, such as massage, or conventional medical treatments, such as surgery or chemotherapy.
For many ailments, you may need to use the services of more than one type of practitioner, in addition to your Reiki practitioner. For example, you may want to also see a psychotherapist, a massage therapist, a nutritionist, or a medical doctor.

Distance Reiki (via Zoom or FaceTime) are available any time! These sessions are just as effective as a in-person session, as Reiki does not have time or distance constraints.
There is nothing like a Reiki session, but a Reiki session while you are snuggled into your own bed? Now that is relaxing!
A 30 minute session is $25 and can be sent as a gift to someone or better yet, a gift for yourself.
