The term Reiki is made up of 2 Japanese words: Rei, meaning "universal," and Ki, meaning "life force energy." The Reiki method was developed by Mikao Usui in the early 1900s. Usui saw this universal energy being channeled through the hands to promote healing on physical, emotional, and spiritual levels.
In Reiki, there’s no massage, pressure, or manipulation involved. During a Reiki treatment, the practitioner lightly places their hands on or just above the body to direct healing energy to where it is needed most. The aim of Reiki is to support the body's innate capacity to heal and to restore balance.
Benefits of Reiki Healing Sessions
1. Emotional Rebalance
One of the most common reasons for trying Reiki is to help a person feel better on an emotional level. Whether it's stress, sadness, anger, or feeling overwhelmed, Reiki assists the mind and heart to find balance once again. Some emotions that have been long buried may come to the surface gently to release, which can reduce emotional heaviness and create a more stable presence.
2. Physical Relaxation
Reiki also reduces physical tension, as offered by Reiki treatment in Hertfordshire by Yatri Healing. It helps to slow the heart rate, reduce stress hormones, and help tight muscles to let go. Many people report sleeping better after a Reiki treatment with fewer aches and pains and increased energy. Reiki will not resolve everything overnight, but it supports the body's natural ability to heal itself.
3. Mental Clarity
When energy is scattered or intense, it can feel unsettling to your mind and certainly a little foggy. The stillness of Reiki calms all that inner narrative. It creates some distance and clarity and helps you feel focused again, allowing you to make decisions with more ease. Many clients report after a Reiki session that their thoughts feel more spacious and calm
4. Spiritual Connection
You don't need to be religious to feel the spiritual aspect of Reiki. For some, it invokes a feeling of connection - connection to themselves, to nature, or to something bigger than themselves. It also supports self-reflection and personal growth while facing transition or the newness of self-discovery.
5. Holistic Wellness Support
Reiki is an excellent practice to use alongside other healing techniques. It works along with therapy, yoga, and/or medical treatment. It does not have any conflicts. It promotes the entire healing process by balancing the energy.
Who Can Benefit from Reiki?
Reiki is for everybody. You don't need to be "unwell" to benefit.
But you will probably realize the most benefit if you are in a category or are experiencing a problem with one of the following:
- Individuals managing stress, anxiety, or burnout
- Individuals managing emotional pain, including grief, heartbreak, or navigating major life changes
- Respectful professionals and caregivers who care more than they should but struggle to refill their own cups
- Individuals on a spiritual journey, wanting deeper self-awareness and understanding
- Individuals who simply want to slow down, take deep breaths, and find themselves again.
Whatever age, orientation, or belief system you have, Reiki meets you where you're at and helps lift you up.
