What is Reiki?

Reiki is a gentle yet powerful healing energy that is transmitted through the hands to one's self, or another. It is believed by many to be the way Jesus and the Buddha healed, but was lost in ancient texts, or held as a guarded secret by those not wishing this knowledge to be widely promulgated. As an ancient method of healing whose primordial roots are somewhat open to speculation, it was sought after and "rediscovered" in the late 1800s by a Japanese teacher and scholar, Mikao Usui, who named it “Reiki.”

Translated from the Japanese, Rei = Universal and Ki = Life Force Energy. Reiki is therefore, literally, Universal Life Force Energy. This same energy is known in many different cultures by such names as prana, ch'i, ki, xi, mana, orgone, orenda, and on it goes. Reiki eventually made its way from Japan, in the mid-late 20th century, to the United States and the rest of the world, where it has gained not only popularity, but continues to gain scientific credibility as a healing art.

Reiki can be transmitted in person, or remotely, to both humans and animals. When receiving Reiki in person, unlike massage, the recipient remains fully clothed at all times.

Why would someone want to have a Reiki session?

Receiving Reiki can lead to profound relaxation, altered states, including heightened awareness and insight, emotional release and healing, as well as the experience of spiritual initiation. Reiki is a profound gift, supporting healing on all levels of body, mind and spirit.

My background

I have been an active and avid student of spirituality, metaphysics, human behavior/relationships, and alternative health for many years, and I have been a Reiki practitioner since the early 1980s. I was initiated into Level I in New York City. I then met my Level II Reiki initiator/Master Teacher while on a three month spiritual sojourn in India, and was subsequently initiated by her into Reiki Level II, at her home in Delaware in the late 1980s. I received my Level III initiation in Boulder, Colorado in 1996. As well as being a Reiki III practitioner, I have an extensive background in voice and breathwork (see below).

How much does a session cost?

$55 for an approx. 1 1/2 hour session, and if you would like to come regularly, we can work something out for slightly less. Concessions also available to those in dire financial need.
