Remote Reiki? How on Earth . . .??

There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, Than are dreamt of in your philosophy. -Hamlet (Shakespeare)

If you are called to try or use Reiki healing, you already know that its effects are hard to describe, that there is something 'other worldly' about it. For many, no further explanation is necessary. The mysteries of life that manifest in our search for truth and healing are accepted pieces of the big puzzle.

In this respect, the common phrase 'we are all one' takes shape in concrete ways when I practice giving Reiki to someone who is not right in front of me. I feel the energy going out, the client feels the energy coming in. (Tips to maximize a Reiki session)

The great Sufi and mystical poet, Rumi, alludes to the ability to transmit healing energy across time and space:

The journey of the spirit is unconditioned in respect of Time and Space: our body learned from the spirit how to journey. - Rumi

The effects of a Remote Reiki session (aka Distant/Distance Reiki) hours and even a couple days later, are exactly what one would experience when a Reiki practitioner holds their hands gently over or on a client's body in a 'hands-on' session - total relaxation and more.

Interconnectedness

For those who need a bit more explanation, here is a brief conceptual framework for what makes giving a Reiki session to someone across space and time possible:

Premise

Remote Reiki, an advanced Reiki technique, utilizes intention, the subtle body and the principle that you are where your consciousness is. Universal healing energy is not bound by space or time. We are all connected.

For that reason, peace and healing are just a heartbeat away. Wherever your awareness is . . . . there is an opening, a presence. The energy is always there, ready to help you, to heal you. The healing begins with your openness to the universal energy.

In a remote Reiki session, Reiki practitioners simply intend the healing energy to the client wherever they are. The client sits or lies comfortably in a receptive state as if they were receiving a hands-on treatment.

Remote Reiki Session Benefits

Remote Reiki is as effective as a hands-on session, and in this pandemic, a sure and safe way to reap just some of Reiki’s great benefits:

• Full body relaxation and stress release

• Relief from minor aches and pains

• Deeper sleep and increased energy

• Insight into inner conflicts, solutions

• Balanced emotions and release from worry

• Calmer mind, positive outlook

I get regular Remote Reiki treatments from a practitioner way over in London and remember so vividly on my first session the feeling of having a warm gel pack spanning the length of my back for the entire day after receiving the remote Reiki. Comforting, indeed.

Perhaps a testimonial I recently got from a client says it best:

I don't know how Reiki works andI don't have to. You, do! That being said, I love how it relaxes me... and makes my knee feel so much better!! - Ruth, Alamosa, CO

If you've read this far (thank you!). Perhaps you're feeling like a session may be just what you'd need right now. Good for you! There are several options to choose from. See which suits you and reach out.

As always, a big thank you to returning clients and to all who have found Well Within Reiki!

Feeling like you may be ready for a 'hands-on' session before too long? Outdoors, perhaps?Oh, yes. Me, too! Call or text (505) 216-6141 and let's get the conversation started.

I'll end this with another quote from Rumi, this one shared with me in a much needed 'moment' in these challenging times.

Open to the light within you. It knows everything. It heals. It blesses you and all the world.

All the best,
