What does Reiki feel like?

💚Sensations of warmth or heat are frequently reported during Reiki sessions. This warmth is often felt in the areas being treated or in the hands of the practitioner, and it's associated with the flow of energy.

💚Sensations of energy pulsing or flowing through the body are also reported. It might feel like waves of energy moving through different areas. Some individuals describe feeling tingling sensations, like gentle vibrations, as Reiki is administered.

💚One of the most common reactions to Reiki is a deep sense of relaxation and calm, akin to a deep state of meditation.

💚A feeling of lightness or expansion is also often reported. This might involve a sensation of energy spreading out beyond the physical body. Like a breath of fresh air for your spirit.

💚 During a session, individuals may experience emotional releases such as tears, laughter, or feelings of profound peace and contentment.

💚Reiki can quiet the chatter of the mind, bringing a sense of mental clarity and inner peace.

💚Some people report seeing images, colours, or experiencing visualizations. These experiences can range from seeing bright lights or specific hues to intricate patterns and symbolic imagery.

💚 Not everyone feels distinct sensations during Reiki. Energy is subtle, and sometimes things are happening on deeper levels that may not necessary manifest as an noticeable external reaction. Perhaps a few days or weeks later you may feel calmer or less reactive to something that really bothered you before. Or you notice a general improvement in your overall well-being and resilience in the face of life’s challenges. Trust the Reiki energy to do what is needed. 😊💫

Grief has its own language — soft, slow, sacred.

If you’re walking through loss, may these words remind you that you’re not alone and that love doesn’t end — it simply changes form. Sending gentle hugs 💞💞💞

I want to thank you all for your patience and kindness over the past few months. I've been taking some time away following a personal loss and your understanding and compassion during this period have meant more than words can express.

I'm now returning to work and feel deeply grateful for the healing space we share together. If you feel called to make an appointment I would be honored to hold space for you - with an even deeper appreciation for the healing work we undertake together.

With love and gratitude,
Katharina Connolly

Reiki is a safe, non-intrusive healing practice. It enhances the body’s natural ability to heal itself through the balancing of energy. Reiki seeks to restore order to the body whose vital energy has become unbalanced.

Reiki is a holistic treatment which will heal, re-balance and restore harmony within you on a physical, mental and emotional level. The energy will instinctively flow to where it is most needed, allowing your body to regenerate and heal itself naturally.

Reiki can be used to assist in the healing process for many ailments both physical and mental. It is particularly effective in relieving stress and anxiety and alleviating depression. It can also help accelerate healing for many ailments.

Reiki should never be used as a substitute for medical treatment but can work well alongside as an excellent complimentary therapy.

A Reiki Level 1 Workshop provides the training, theory and practice needed to help improve your health and well-being. (Reiki Level 1 focuses on self-healing)

It is easy to learn and everyone can learn it.

Open the door to a New Level of Health, Vitality and Self-Empowerment.

WHAT ARE THE HAPPIER PEOPLE DOING?
No one can be happy all the time. There will always be periods of unhappiness in our lives. However, the people who experience a more sustainable kind of happiness connect in almost a spiritual sense with the gifts all around them. This spiritual connection helps them greatly. They rejoice and are glad about the simple things. This leads them to experience more happiness as a result.

Such people tend to take nothing for granted. They approach their life with a sense of gratitude. They are grateful for the fact that they are breathing. They rejoice because they are loved. They reach out and touch the world. They hear the birds singing. They play with their children, knowing that childhood days pass quickly. They invest in friendships because they see them as gifts. They mind their health because they know that it is precious. They reach out in kindness to others because they believe that we all share this world. Many of them pray, sing and dance in praise (especially in poorer countries).

Not everyone finds it easy to adopt this approach. Indeed, sometimes our circumstances can make it almost impossible. However, scientific studies have proven that when we count our blessings more we find ourselves more content and happy in ourselves. Psychologists have also shown that forming a habit of focusing on the good things that happen (or have happened) lifts mood.

Meeting a friend for a cup of tea and a good chat is a simple act that we need to do more often. It certainly increases our level of happiness for the day!
