Reiki is a form of energy healing that originated in Japan. The name combines two Japanese words: “rei,” which means universal, and “ki,” which is the vital life force energy that flows through all living things (a.k.a. qi). The modality involves a practitioner using their hands to channel universal energy to remove blockages, balance the energy flow, and enhance the body’s natural healing energy. This is how Reiki helps heal the mind, body, and spirit.

No, you don’t have to do anything to prepare for your distance Reiki session or home cleansing—but it is encouraged that you come with an open mind! Elizabeth will lead all energy work, and you can simply come as you are, in whatever clothing is most comfortable for you.

Yes, in fact, Elizabeth offers distance Reiki healing to people worldwide! With these virtual sessions, your practitioner can send healing energy over any distance, and you can receive the benefits just as you would an in-person session.

During distance Reiki sessions, you will have a virtual meeting with Elizabeth to discuss what is on your mind. You will then sit with your eyes closed as she tunes into your energy. Elizabeth may work silently, or guide you to breathe or answer a question. You may feel warmth, tingling, or deep relaxation. Sessions usually last about 60 to 90 minutes.

Yes, Reiki is a gentle, non-invasive practice that is safe for people of all ages, including infants and the elderly. It complements other medical treatments and therapies without any side effects.

Reiki can help:

- Reduce stress, anxiety, and pain

- Improve sleep quality

- Boost the immune system

- Enhance overall well-being

- Support emotional healing and spiritual growth

The number of sessions varies depending on individual needs and goals. Some people experience significant benefits after one session, while others may require multiple sessions for deeper, long-lasting effects. 

For beginners, weekly sessions for four to six weeks are ideal to initiate the healing process. 

For maintenance, monthly sessions are best to sustain the benefits.

For intense periods, you may need more frequent sessions to deal with high-stress or specific issues. 

Listen to your body and consult with your practitioner, who will help determine the best schedule for you.

No, you do not need to believe in Reiki for it to be effective. The energy will work regardless of belief. However, being open to the experience can enhance receptivity. 

Choose a certified, experienced practitioner with positive reviews or referrals. You should feel comfortable and have a good personal connection with your healer, so feel free to have an initial chat with them.
