Our Story
The Japanese word Reiki (pronounced ray-key) actually translates as 'universal life energy'. The Universe is filled with invisible energy that is present in all living things, flowing through our energy centres (chakras), and network of meridians. When this energy flow is uninterrupted, it allows balance and harmony within and around us; we then can experience a state of calm, well-being and peace. It can be likened to a lamp plugged into an electrical socket; when the switch is turned on, energy is able to flow into the lamp and the bulb will light. The moment that the switch is turned off and the energy flow is blocked, the bulb will no longer glow.
Reiki is simply beautiful, and how privileged we are to be able to use this gentle but powerful energy alongside, but not as an alternative to conventional medicine. Reiki is always used only for good, not linked to any religion, and can be enjoyed by all groups and states of health. Reiki is deeply relaxing, calming, and can help us cope with day to day pressures and stresses by bringing balance to mind, body and emotions.
Animals also enjoy the soothing, calming effect of Reiki, they seem to instinctively know that it will help them heal. Just like we do, animals experience a variety of emotions, and physical pain. Using Reiki can help them during times where they feel anxious, depressed or in pain.
My aim as a practitioner is to channel this wonderful energy to help you begin to heal yourself, bringing balance and restoring harmony. Many people who enjoy Reiki frequently find their overall state of mind is more positive and they are able to live in that 'now' moment more often, rather than continually worrying about the past and the future.
