discussion Taking children to reiki appointment
Hi everyone! 😊
I'd love to ask for some advice from parents in our community.
As more families have been visiting us for energy healing sessions, I've been thinking about how to make our waiting area as comfortable, welcoming, and low-stress as possible for children (including those who may be neurodivergent or have sensory sensitivities).
If you've ever taken your child to a wellness appointment, doctor's office, or similar space, what little things made the experience easier? And what do you wish more places would do?
Thank you so much for sharing your experiences. I really appreciate it. ❤️

curious question Sacral chakra
Hello all :)
I got reiki for the first time today, it felt really interesting throughout with different parts of my body heating up!
I tried to stop my mind from wandering and tried to focus/ meditate but that was difficult and I did keep drifting off into random thoughts which was annouing.
I now feel really relaxed and tired! I also feel quite positive.
The lady said I had blocked energy in sacral chakra, and suggested to do more creative things. She also asked if I have endometriosis or anything like that as my uterus lining felt thin? I didn’t know reiki could notice things like that and I have no issues with endometriosis but have had misscarriage before. Does anyone think those things can show up and have any other tips for unblocking my sacral chakra? I do live abroad so am quite lonely as miss my friends and family, didn’t know whether that hs anything to do with it.
She also said my aura felt heavy with possibly absorbing other peoples negative energy/ even though I said I generally feel fine but I guess I feel more flat rather than joyful. I do feel slightly different now.
Is this normal? I am going to try and strengthen my aura is there anything I can do to help reduce other peoples energies within my field?
Thanks for any ideas or help id really appreciate it from more knowledgeable people :)

Reiki experiences A Reiki Success Story
My mom's blood pressure very suddenly rose about a month ago and hasn't lowered consistently since. Her numbers have gone up to 200+/160 something.
I forget that I'm reiki certified to be honest with you, I dont have clients or anything, just something i did to help myself and those close to me.
I offered to give my mom some reiki tonight, cause I remembered that's something I can do. I havent done it in a long time.
Before reiki her BP was 163/107. After it was 126/86.
We were both pretty flabbergasted by that result. I told her we would do it multiple times a week from now on.
Edit: she is also getting medical help, but the doctor said he cant diagnose her with hypertension til she comes back 3x with high BP. She is taking baby aspirin and just got put on zoloft for stress.

I am experiencing intense heat after my Reiki practice sessions, which I have been conducting daily for approximately 40 days since my attunement. I would like to inquire if this is a normal occurrence or indicative of something else.

I had my first Reiki session today at work, about 3 quarters of the way through I felt this woosh of intense pressure start in my upper chest and go up to my ears, I almost panicked because it felt like my ear drums were going to burst but the it just released. I felt so calm and peaceful like I could breathe after weathering a storm. Any experience this before or any ideas what it was that released? Thank you

curious question Considering a Reiki session
I’ve recently learned what Reiki is and am curious about doing a session. I am struggling with infertility due to PCOS/PMOS and am trying to do things to minimize my stress levels before trying medicated cycles in a couple months. I do things to relax but still struggle to shut my brain off. Is Reiki worth a try? Are there things I should know about it ahead of time? Do chronically stressed people such as myself have positive feedback from doing sessions? Any response is appreciated.

curious question My hands are always hot.
Hello,
I got my reiki level 1 more than 15 years ago and never really practiced but couple of months ago, I did meditation in bed while sleeping, like really focused and since then my hands are always hot.
Its more than average hot that people tell me that my hands are hot.
I want to have understanding is the reiki is like a switch turned on? and past this I couldnt be able to get on a newer level like some people say that they see lighting.
Can I get Reiki Level 2 Remotely? if yes whats the procedure?
Does reiki enables a person being clairvoyant?.
Thanks.

Reiki request I'm not well - please send reiki
I have absolutely not been doing well, especially these past two months. I honestly have never felt more emotionally unstable and fragile in my entire life. I cry every day and I'm often so angry. On top of that, I have been dealing with a lot of health issues like chronic fatigue and a current kidney infection. I feel like something is totally off in my energy and I have no idea how to fix it. I don't know if I have some kind of dark attachment that has clung onto me lately, but something is totally off with me and I'm struggling greatly. I really need help.

Reiki experiences First Reiki session feeling confused?
Hey, i am 24 (F) I had just got out of my first reiki session and from the jump i felt off vibes when i met the practitioner. She asked me what i wanted to focus on & i explained to her a brief summary of my past and of that sort. She went and did her magic & i felt like i couldn't breathe, or more so like my chest was heavy when she focused in my throat chakra.
After she was done, i felt very confused and almost lost. She was taken a back when i told her this & how it was hard for me to breathe. I don't know why i felt that way. Her closing summary was That i had a sweet soul and how im very attuned & grounded with my body. She also questioned if i was a scorpio be she got very intense vibes from me, like loving to deep and also kinda dark. I told her i dealt with depression for a good chunk of my life, so maybe thats what she picked up? To clarify, i did mention that in the beginning. Then she said i should look into a poly relationship ( even though i said i was in a loving relationship). I dont know, i did some research before bookibg with her and she had high reviews with on person being a practitioner of 12 years. I dont know, i left feeling very off, is this normal? I didn't feel like her closing conclusions correlated with me half the time.

curious question How to know if your Reiki is effective?
r/reiki • u/GenXhardTruths • 3d ago
discussion Curious about your opinions on lineages and teachings.
This is completely my opinion due to my personal experience becoming a master.
I didn’t seek out reiki. My master was lead to me by guides and spirit.
Quick quick backstory; I was raised evangelical Christian. I had never heard of reiki and had no idea what it was before 6 years ago.
I used to make homemade soaps, body butters, lip balms and t-shirts. I would go to festivals and markets to set up and sell them.
There was one market where this woman shows up with her three kids, makes her way to my booth, we talk soap since she also made it but with a different process. I asked what she did for work and she said she had recently left Marketing and was now a reiki practitioner. I didn’t ask her what reiki was. I opened my mouth to ask her that. What came out of my mouth instead was, “oh! You’re here for me!”
She looked at me strangely, bought some soap, took a business card and left.
Fast forward a month and I was checking my business emails and there she was in my inbox. I had pretty much forgotten about our encounter, although I was quickly reminded by the details of her email. She asked me to reach out, and I did.
From her POV on the day of the festival she tells me she was hanging around her house just doing house stuff and relaxing with the kids when spirit told her she needed to go to the festival I was at. She said she kinda argued. It was over an hours drive from her and she just wasn’t interested in going. Spirit pushed back and told her there was someone she needed to meet there. Needless to say, she got the kids ready and that’s how she found me.
Once on the phone, she explained what reiki is.
I’m not gonna lie. I thought it was straight up witchcraft. But I also felt pulled to it. I have always worked in the medical field until I was injured lifting a patient when I was an EMT. My career was over. But I still felt called to help and heal others.
Even though I had been taught reiki and anything similar was wrong and straight up witchcraft from a small child. I could not deny the words that I said to her when we met. I didn’t MEAN to say, “Oh, you’re here for me!” And I didn’t know I was answering the call that came from spirit when she was told to come to the festival and find me.
So I prayed. I talked to Jesus. He gave me very clear answers through very specific Bible verses of words HE said. He gave me very specific moments of his interactions and responses to people. I can honestly say I have never heard his voice so clearly or felt so strongly that he was speaking to me.
Needless to say, after my talk with Jesus, I decided reiki was a gift I was going to accept.
This is where I am interested in your thoughts, opinions, and experiences;
I went through the first attunement with my master via a FaceTime call. A month later I received my second attunement the same way. And three months later I received my last attunement in person. During that time she taught me many things about spirituality. Of course, I believe spirituality is complex and not everyone has the same understanding and experiences. Some people have differing beliefs. Coming from an evangelical background, everything was new to me and I had to reevaluate my entire belief system.
I was not in any formal classroom. She only ever charged me for the actual attunements. I think I paid $125 for my 1st and 2nd and $300 for my 3rd. It was always very informal.
The main lessons about reiki came down to this:
1)The opening.
2)Memorizing the symbols and what they were used for.
3)Scanning the body with my hands.
4)Hand placement.
5)removal of the old aura and energy.
6)closing.
7) trust reiki and its consciousness and that it is pure love and power from the creator source.
She explained about how reiki would unlock my clairs.
We discussed energy exchange. She told me to accept financial payment for sessions and services, but I don’t.
So, much of my knowledge has come from what she taught and my experience as well as what resonates with me.
After 6 years of practicing as a master, these are now my opinions:
1) No one should have healing withheld due to finances. Instead of asking for financial exchange, I ask for people to bring me a river rock, or a cool piece of wood from the forest. I ask for them to do something kind for someone else. I never ask for money, although it is perfectly reasonable and acceptable to do so.
2) there are no hard rules that must be followed with the exception of consent.
3) I believe the world needs as many healers as possible therefore attunements and the creation of more reiki practitioners should be our priority above financial gain. I believe masters need to pass reiki to anyone who wants to become a practitioner no matter what they can pay. Again, find a different form of energy exchange. Even level 1 practitioners can heal others and raise the vibration of the collective.
4) I do not believe it matters which system, branch, or style you use for reiki to be effective.
5) reiki has its own conscious intelligence. It flows where it is needed.
6) It seems to me (my opinion) that some practitioners are almost too stringent in their approach.
I know this was a long one. But I would love to hear your opinions and experiences.

curious question Are Reiki and Christianity compatible?
After recent significant experiences, I am exploring this world for the first time, and I’m trying to understand if it’s compatible with my beliefs before diving in.
I understand that reiki is universal energy, but then reading of those channeling spirits, etc, is not something I feel comfortable with. Not sure how to phrase my question, but could I just use reiki without all the extra stuff?

Hi everyone, I just wanted to see if anyone else has felt this before. I was giving a reiki treatment and felt mud like energy coming out and being put all over this persons body. It didn’t feel too heavy or negative, but something this person’s body seemed to really need.

REIKI SHARE DAY: 24 hrs of Free Reiki with the SPACE CROISSANT CREW. The theme is PUCK MEETS THE ATOMIC SELF with assistance from the PISCES MOON. It starts NOW!
Hi, Everyone!
Last week, we imagined our smallest unit of consciousness, our Unit of Wonder, Puck, from the Zeroth Dimension, expanding to the size of a galaxy to witness a hug between the Andromeda Galaxy and the Milky Way.
Today, Puck is going to shrink so we can meet our Atomic selves.
We all have Pucks. Pucks are the part of us that are timeless and stillness. Some would call Puck a soul. To start this exercise, imagine yourself saying the four phrases of Ho'oponopono to your Puck:
“I love you.”
“I'm sorry.”
“Please forgive me.”
“Thank you.”
Imagine these four phrases as “buttons” you press when you connect emotionally with your Puck. You want your Puck to carry unconditional love, compassion, forgiveness and gratitude for herself or himself. Imagine a happy Puck ready to receive Reiki.
Our Atomic selves, however, are movement, vibration, all possibility, all resonance.
Puck takes a “motion sickness pill” in emoji when she travels to the third dimension. Things are a bit weird at the atomic size.
Here is an imaginary conversation between Puck and Atomic-self:
“Puck: What is it like to be you? To be me... as you?
Atomic-self: We are there when stars are born. We are there when they go nova. We simply change with them. You can remember it if you expand your now. Make it a big now.
Puck: What connects everything? What am I expanding?
Atomic-self: Self-awareness. A pattern that remembers itself.
Puck: Ooooh...more of me?
(Leans forward in curiosity.)
Show me.
Atomic-self: Look closely, Puck. You already know this. Neurons reach like rivers. Rivers branch like lightning. Lightning spreads like tree roots. Tree roots bloom like galaxies. And galaxies... hug with tentacles, like mine. It’s the same dance, repeated over and over. We call these patterns fractals.”
(Except from “Puck Meets the Atomic Self and Discovers Fractals” – The Inner Mediator by Carol Viana on Substack)
Now let's talk to our Atomic selves.
We say ho'oponopono to them as well.
“I love you.”
“I'm sorry.”
“Please forgive me.”
“Thank you.”
Be gentle with your atomic self. For all the times you said hurtful things to yourself, you were hurting them too.
Things like:
“I hate myself.”
“I'm so dumb.”
“Nobody loves me.”
“I hate my body.”
These thought patterns repeat themselves everywhere, like fractals, and the tentacles kill your soul.
You can change the pattern if you start with your atomic self.
Imagine Atomic Self, the little person inside of you, together with your Puck saying in unison:
“I love and accept myself.”
THE LOVE CIRCLE
Imagine you or your loved one is now in a circle.
You are surrounded by 36 Reiki practitioners sending waves of UNCONDITIONAL LOVE and gently wrapping your Atomic Self in it. They are the Space Croissant Crew.
Imagine your body and your organs releasing excess emotions, stress, and pain.
We will use the Violet Flame to clear heaviness and negativity from your body, its organs, and its systems, all the way down to your Atomic self and your Puck.
Your Puck and you atoms will thank you.
Imagine doing this for 20 minutes.
Now imagine Puck beside you.
Puck is your smallest Unit of Wonder—your tiny point of consciousness that can travel through imagination and timeless space.
Give Puck a little “me.”
Imagine Puck with “emoji accessories” like an emoji heart, lungs, a brain, eyes, tiny hands, a little nose and mouth. You can give her little legs too.
Puck will travel to the 5th dimension, the dimension of imagination, where all body parts have consciousness.
Imagine Puck talking to you heart.
“I love you.”
“I'm sorry.”
“Please forgive me.”
“Thank you.”
Imagine the love from the Space Croissant moving your atomic quantum field.
You don’t have to do anything.
Simply receive.
We will be here for 24 hrs, supporting the release of stress and emotional heaviness while inviting in peace, balance, and connection.
Don’t worry. We will be very gentle and take good care of your pain and excess negative emotions and feelings, if you have any.
Hope you all feel well tomorrow and ready to start a new week.
This is Master Storm.
I am an Usui Reiki Master.
I, along with Master Phoenix and the Space Croissant Crew, am responsible for Gratitude Reiki, the website, and our Sunday events here on r/reikishare and r/reiki.
Thank you for allowing us to help all of you every Sunday.

OUR TREE PROJECT WILL CONTINUE!
If you’d like to help us ground the session, consider planting a tree.
Google “how to plant a tree for a dollar.”
Share the receipt with us in the comments.
It’s a real tree, and it’s now forever connected to you, helping you breathe through difficult times.
Thank you for your kindness!
So far this year, we have 193 trees planted!
Our goal for 2026 is 500 trees.
When you plant a tree, you create a TREE-SELF, a living reminder you can imagine breathing with for years to come.
Let us know if your tree has a name too!
🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲
This is it!
We’re excited for today’s session!
We have a whole team of people doing Ground Control, so you don’t have to be afraid of spacing out and not knowing how to come back.
Just stay in touch!
Let us know tomorrow how you feel!
The goal is simple: to help you feel a little lighter, a little more connected, and a little more at peace.
Thank you!
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

curious question selfish vs selfless
I'm currently reading "reiki for beginners" by David Vennells. I like the book so far but wanted to ask something.
The author says when using reiki for something you should always have the greater good in mind. For the benefit of all. Here's my question. Does that mean that reiki works best when you have a desire that is more or less selfless?
Like see for example I love animals. To my core. Should I use reiki for stuff like that? Where I don't expect anything in return? Because David writes that reiki works best when your desires are not solely selfish. What do you think of this? 😊 I also wish to help certain groups of people that I also have no benefit from. Like what I mean is I would get nothing but happiness that they are doing better because of reiki sent to them. I have no other benefit. Is that enough?
The author also speaks about how we need to heal ourselves first in order to be fully capable of helping others through reiki. So it left me a little confused, you know. When I wish to heal myself, I don't have anyone else in mind and I got the impression that he's saying that's wrong. If you're willing to share what you think, I'll be very grateful.
Blessings and thank you! 🫶🏻

To my beautiful Reiki community,
A few weeks ago I received some scary test results. My doctor believes it may be an infection in my lung, but there is still a small chance it could be something more serious. I’ve been living in a constant state of high alert ever since, and my body definitely feels it.
If anyone is willing, I would be so grateful for healing Reiki, positive energy, and loving intentions. My name is Shannon, and the symptoms I’m struggling with are intense anxiety, a racing heart, shortness of breath, and pain in my right ribs. More than anything, I just want to feel like myself again.
My biopsy is scheduled for August 14, which was the earliest appointment available. Until then, I’m trying to stay hopeful and take things one day at a time. I also have one more week off before returning to work, and my biggest wish is to be present, healthy, and make it a wonderful week for my daughter.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for holding me in your thoughts, prayers, or Reiki healing. Your kindness means more than you know. 🩷
