What are the benefits of Reiki?
From stress management to being a supportive tool in someone’s chronic health condition, Reiki has a huge range of benefits.
Reiki provides major stress relief and it is a supportive tool for stress management.
Reiki can help dilute the feelings of stress and tension. Reiki serves as an effective tool for stress management. Reiki aims to release stress and takes care of the energy imbalance in your body from daily tasks that kick up our adrenaline levels.
Reiki provides recovery for your body.
When receiving Reiki, your parasympathetic nervous system activates allowing you to relax much more deeply. Reiki is aimed at supporting your endocrine system too, taking care of the heavily working organs so that your entire body can recover and feel taken care of too. Additionally, Reiki can support quicker recovery in the body, anything from common colds to post-surgery healing.
Reiki supports healing from traumatic experiences.
Our body can hold a range of strong emotions from traumatic experiences. With the help of Reiki, we can gradually shift the energy in our body to restore its balance, allowing our body and ourselves to feel safer while we gently heal our emotions.
Reiki supports our mental health.
Reiki aids mental health issues such as anxiety and depression. Reiki serves to ease the feelings that cause anxiety and depression as well as provide relief to those experiencing different types and stages of anxiety and depression.
Reiki helps us cope with grief and loss better.
While Reiki can’t change the past, Reiki can help us cope with our emotions better as Reiki helps every individual heal on a holistic level. Emotions can be extra overwhelming when we have to deal with grief and loss- making it harder to generally go about our day, to work or perform tasks well, to eat, or even have an appetite and our ability to sleep/quality of sleep. Reiki is gentle and soothing, especially during difficult times.
Reiki is great for pain relief (even with chronic pains).
Many Reiki clients suffer from chronic pain – such as lower back pain from herniated discs, sciatica, frozen shoulders, hip pain, you name it. One Reiki session won’t miraculously remove the pain, but each Reiki session can help ease some of the pain paired with any regular stretches or mobility work that you may be doing.
Reiki to support chronic diseases and conditions.
For those with chronic health issues, Reiki works with your body to provide healing for each condition. For those who have been diagnosed with early stages of chronic diseases, Reiki is helpful, however we’d recommend other more advanced forms of healing to go along with Reiki for more effective support.
Reiki improves mental clarity.
Reiki helps to move through energy blockages around our head which have been causing our minds to feel heavy, stuck or lead to brain fog or the like. Typically, we’ll feel much lighter with a clearer head after a Reiki session.
Reiki helps us move through emotional blockage.
Often when we’re emotionally overwhelmed, we repress or suppress some emotion. Over time, that causes emotional blockages in our body. Sometimes it may be hard to even feel emotions because we can get that blocked up. Reiki is helpful in bringing our emotions back into balance.
Reiki helps us connect with ourselves and develop a stronger sense of intuition.
While Reiki is not a psychic tool itself, Reiki treatments allow us the time, space, and healing to reconnect with ourselves better, clear our minds, and listen to our hearts better so naturally we’re able to develop our intuition and continuously nurture higher levels of intuition through further Reiki sessions.
Reiki promotes spirituality.
Although Reiki is not a strictly spiritual practice, it definitely promotes a greater sense of spirituality as we’re able to connect with ourselves and in deeper levels of consciousness during a Reiki session.
Reiki supports our overall well-being.
As Reiki gets to all levels, Reiki can help us restore our well-being physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually so we show up for ourselves and others – as the best version of ourselves.
