What is Reiki?

Reiki is an energetic healing process that connects us to a universal life force — an invisible current of love, light, and intelligence that flows through all living things.

It is a gentle yet powerful form of energy healing that promotes balance, relaxation, and well-being on physical, emotional and spiritual levels. This healing modality involves the channelling of this universal energy through the practitioner’s hands to support the body's natural ability to heal itself. Reiki is non-invasive and can be experienced both in person and from a distance. It complements traditional medical or therapeutic treatments and can help reduce stress, ease pain, and support overall health.

The word Reiki translates from its origins in Japanese as universal life force energy.

Ki or chi is life force energy and

Rei is spirit/universal consciousness/divine intelligence.

What is a Reiki practitioner?

While anyone can become a Reiki practitioner, it is recommended to learn from teachers who honor the traditional Reiki lineage. Becoming a Reiki I, II, or Master practitioner involves spiritual discipline, ongoing study, and deep commitment. At each level, students are introduced to specific hand positions and sacred symbols that deepen and expand the healing practice. Training includes in-person attunements from a Reiki Master and reflects a heartfelt dedication to the path of Reiki.

Reiki Level 1 - Introduction to Divine Healing & Self Practice

I did my level 1 with Samantha Avery and had an impressive vision during my attunement. In this vision an older family member was handing me a ‘key’ while an intricate dark shape exuded a rainbow spectrum (like rays from a prism) in front of my closed eyes. This process involves 21 days of self-Reiki before offering to friends or family, This helped me learn to meditate in a consistent and meaningful way.

Reiki II - Symbols to Scan, Cleanse & Balance the Auric Field

My level II was with Joanna Tolley and within a week an energetic response occurred which continues during my clearings with clients. It sometimes feels like a little electric shock goes through me as it wants to ground down into Mother Earth.

Reiki Master (Level III) - Master Healing for collective

Level III or Master level attunement was also with Joanna Tolley. The 4 weeks training and weekend retreat took place during a tumultuous time for me and allowed for a framework of support to ride these unsteady waves with calmness, resilience, inspiration and expansion.

I will be forever grateful for this training as it has opened realms and possibilities beyond the scope of my imagination. Joanna incorporated yoga sessions during our weekend which allowed us embody the learnings in a holistic way. Joanna’s words, during our ceremonies, felt like they were divinely channelled as if we were being fed fuel for the soul ✨

What is Reiki to me?

My Reiki practice has developed from a culmination of intuitive trainings and chakra education, self-healings and creative processes. It feels like surrendering to a magical frequency and it is one I deeply honour. It propels me to delve further into spirituality through meditation while pursuing various energetic activations in order to enhance being a clear channel.

Time and space are dimensional constructs that have fascinated me for as long as I remember. Reiki stretches across our somewhat limited understandings in our 3D world. As it works in the quantum realm through distant healings.

What is Distant Reiki?

Though traditionally offered through hands-on healing, Reiki is not bound by space or time. As a distance modality, it allows us to tune in through intention and presence — working within what many call the quantum field, where energy, thought, and emotion ripple out in unseen but powerful ways. Inspired by Wayne Dyer’s reflections, I believe that a single act of loving intention — like sending Reiki — can create a healing wave that touches lives far beyond what we can see. This is not wishful thinking, but the quiet, transformative power of coherence: when our energy aligns with compassion, kindness, and purpose. In distance Reiki, we become vessels of this frequency, bridging hearts, healing timelines, and reminding one another that we are never truly separate.
