I work slowly. On purpose. 🌿

Reiki, for me, is listening rather than fixing. A quiet support that can help the nervous system soften and settle, like the river when it is finally allowed to flow. 🤍✨

What does “safe” feel like in your body and where are you craving a little more space?

Roots Reiki started as a quiet return to myself✨️ This work found me slowly, the way nature does, in its own time.

Not as a sudden “I’ve arrived” moment. More like a gentle unfolding. Like a seed pushing through the earth, finding the light when it’s ready🌱

The first time I received Reiki, something in me softened. An exhale. A re-remembering. Not because it fixed me, but because it helped my system come back to what was already there underneath the noise.

If you’ve been feeling stressed, anxious, overstimulated, or like you’ve been holding yourself together… Reiki can be a place to rest. It’s gentle, non-invasive, and often experienced as deep relaxation, calm, and a sense of coming back into your body.

How you can work with me (Hermanus + distance):

🌿 In-person Reiki sessions
Your first session can be up to 90 minutes because we begin with a consultation, then you receive Reiki on the table, followed by time to ground and integrate. Follow-up sessions are usually 60 minutes. Each session includes chakra balancing, and we shape the focus around what’s present for you.

✨ Distance Reiki sessions
If you’re not in Hermanus, you can still receive Reiki from me anywhere. We agree on a time, you get comfy in your own space, and you simply receive. Your first distance session includes a short consult via Zoom/WhatsApp, then the Reiki portion, plus follow-up support after.

Optional little add-ons if you love a bit of magic: an oracle card pull, a gentle seaside grounding walk, or a herbal infusion to root back down.

And yes, sometimes my hands move. Sometimes a bit of light language comes through. I don’t perform it or force it. It’s just another way the body speaks when words feel too small. 🕯️🌿

If you’re curious, you don’t need the perfect explanation or message..mm Just DM me with what you’ve been carrying (even if it’s simply: “I’m tired”), and I’ll guide you to the right session.

Reiki doesn’t fix you. It supports you. 🌿✨

A gentle space for your system to soften, regulate, and come back home to your body 🤍

If one slide stood out, that may be what your nervous system needs most right now. Save this for later 🌙

Most of us are living from the neck up🥲👆

Always thinking. Always holding.

Reiki begins by bringing you back into your body.

Back to the ground beneath you🌱

New here? This is Roots Reiki. 🌿

I’m Tanya, a Reiki practitioner who works gently with the nervous system, the body, and the emotional layers we carry beneath the surface. My sessions are slow, intuitive, and deeply grounded - a space where you don’t have to perform, explain, or push through.

People don’t come to Reiki because they “need Reiki.”

They come because they’re tired.

Overstimulated.

Holding too much.

They come because their body is asking for rest,

safety,

and regulation.

What sets my work apart is presence.

I work one-on-one, in person,

holding a calm, contained space that allows your system to soften in its own time.

No rushing.

No fixing.

Just support, attunement, and care.

If your body has been asking for a pause,

this is your invitation.

What does Reiki actually feel like? ✨
And why do people really book a session?

Most people don’t book Reiki because they “want Reiki.”
They book because something in them feels safe with the practitioner.

Because healing isn’t just about energy -
it’s about being held, seen, and met exactly where you are.

With me, Reiki often feels like:
✨ a deep exhale you didn’t realise you were holding
✨ warmth moving through the body
✨ the mind finally quieting down
✨ feeling grounded, supported, deeply rested
✨ a soft and gentle releasing of emotions

Sometimes you fall asleep.
Sometimes you feel waves of sensation.
Sometimes it’s just stillness - and that is powerful too.

I don’t rush the process or force outcomes.
I listen to your body and let the energy guide the work.

Reiki at Roots Reiki is a space to rest your nervous system,
release what you’ve been carrying,
and return to yourself - gently, naturally, in your own time.

If you’ve been curious, trust that pull.

You don’t need to know what you need - just a space that feels safe enough to receive it🤍

🌕 Full Moon. New Year. A moment to reset.

As the Full Moon rises, it shines a light on what we’re ready to release - and what we’re quietly calling in as a new cycle begins🌀

The start of a new year isn’t just about goals or resolutions.

It’s about the state of your nervous system.

The weight your body is still holding.

The patterns that followed you here - whether you want them to or not.

✨ Anxiety and overthinking
🔥 Burnout and exhaustion
🤍 The need to control

These don’t disappear just because the calendar changes.

This is where Reiki becomes such a powerful ally🙌🏽

Reiki works gently with the body, mind and energy system, helping you soften, release stored tension, and return to balance. It doesn’t force change - it clears what’s blocking your natural flow, much like removing rocks and sticks from a mountain stream so the water can move freely again.

At the beginning of a new year, Reiki can support you by:
🌿 Calming the nervous system
🌿 Easing stress and emotional overload
🌿 Restoring energy and clarity
🌿 Helping you let go of what no longer serves
🌿 Grounding you into a more intentional way of moving forward

The current Full Moon is a beautiful invitation to pause, breathe, and ask yourself:

What am I ready to leave behind?
And how do I want to feel as I step into this next chapter?

If you feel called to begin the year feeling more centred, rested, and supported, Reiki is here to meet you exactly where you are.

A gentle return to yourself.

Feeling the December rush creeping in?🫠

You’re not alone - and your nervous system is asking for care.

Here are a few simple ways to soften the stress during this time of year👇👇👇

✨ Take 3 slow breaths before transitioning tasks
✨ Spend 5 minutes outside each day: Light, air and nature regulate the nervous system
✨ Lower the bar: choose one thing to do well instead of five things in overwhelm
✨ Create tiny moments of stillness: Tea, journaling, stretching, just silence
✨ Say “no” when your body tenses and “yes” when it relaxes

Even these small shifts help your system exhale.

~

Yes, December is a beautiful time… but for many of us it can also feel heavy.

The deadlines, family dynamics, travel plans, financial pressure, year-end fatigue - it all lands in the body long before it ever appears in the mind.

This is the season where so many of us move faster than we feel we can.

Where our energy gets scattered.
Where stress quietly builds.
And where self-care is usually the first thing we let go of.

Reiki brings you back to yourself.

It supports the body, mind and soul by:
✨ promoting deep relaxation
✨ calming the nervous system
✨ easing stress and emotional tension
✨ helping your body return to its natural healing state
✨ restoring balance when life feels overwhelming

Reiki is gentle… but the shift is real.
It softens the edges of burnout.
It brings clarity where there was noise.
It helps you breathe again - fully, deeply, intentionally.

If December feels like “too much,” this is your reminder that you’re allowed to slow down.

You’re allowed to receive.

You’re allowed to take care of you. 🌿✨
