How did you first become interested in Reiki and Energy therapy?
As a teenager, I lost my father to heart disease. As I began to have my own children I really felt a strong desire to connect with my father so I booked an appointment with a medium. When was there I saw that she also offered reiki so I inquired about it and she then explained it all t me.
I was intrigued and immediately booked a session with her During my first appointment, I had a profound experience. I was deeply relaxed, something I hadn’t felt for a long time, and experienced a release of a lot of heavy emotions and stress that I had been holding onto.
Afterwards, we discussed the session and this is where I learned a lot about being an empat and how I absorbed the energy of others. It gave me a lot of clarity and it was really the start of truly understanding myself but it was also the catalyst for me to start some deep inner shadow work and healing Over the next few years, I began working with her to learn about and receive my certifications in reiki (level one, two, and master teacher) and over time energy healing has become not only my business but my passion and a way of life for me.
Can you explain the key principles that guide your practice of Reiki and Energy therapy?
While Reiki has its own guiding principles which I incorporate into my life and practice on a daily basis (Just for today I will not worry, I will not be angry, I will be grateful, I will do my work honestly, I will be kind to every living thing).
My personal guiding principles are:
● Start each day with gratitude and intention. Energy flows where our attention goes.
● Always be working on your own healing and keeping your vibration/frequency high. We inspire by example and as healers the more we heal, the clearer of a conduit we can be to channel the life force energy to our clients and offer support through a lens of Experience.
● Work with integrity and trust your intuition always.
● Never stop learning, be open to new ideas and growth.
● Always remember we are there to hold space for our clients and to support them in accessing their own innate healing abilities.
What specific benefits do clients typically experience after a session with you?
The benefits of reiki and energy therapy are endless however the one common experience that all clients report is described as feeling deeply relaxed and lighter. This feeling of “lightness” is representative of a release, a release of energy that is no longer serving us.
The results of each session are often very unique to the individual but range from feeling relaxed, feeling a reduction in stress, anxiety, or pain, having improved immune function/health, and receiving clarity about things in our lives to beginning to have an awareness of traumas held within the body, helping to release trauma from the energetic body, improved ability to access one’s intuition and opening up to one’s spiritual path.
How do you tailor your approach to meet the unique needs of each individual during a reiki or Energy Therapy session?
As every person has unique needs we begin each session with a short discussion. We set the intention for the session together by talking about what results the client is hoping to achieve. Initially, we will discuss the comfort level of having a hands-on session versus hands hovering above the body as well as the use of crystals, essential oils, and sound healing.
If the client is comfortable with all of the modalities I use, I will then Intuitively choose the crystals, essential oils, colors, and sound frequencies for the session. In subsequent sessions, I have more information about areas that could use extra support so I then begin to tailor the sessions around frequencies, colors, oils, and crystals that support those specific energy centers/ chakras we want to work with.
Are there particular techniques or methods you find most effective in enhancing the energy healing process?
The most effective thing that can be done before and during each session is to set and hold the intention of healing for the highest best of the client, whether it be for targeted areas or for the client as a whole. I also feel that trusting in my intuition to guide me throughout the session is incredibly effective. In my sessions, I combine various energy healing modalities and find that working with specific frequencies of essential oils, crystals, color, music, and sound bowls further enhances healing.
