Let’s Talk About Reiki | Life Coaching + Reiki, Pittsburgh, PA
Reiki has been widely used all over the world for over one hundred years but in this specific geographic area of Pittsburgh, PA, it’s really just now starting to gain some traction. A few years ago, I’d say about two out of ten people would know what Reiki was when I mentioned that I’m a practitioner. Today, I think I’m up to about 5. That might not seem like a lot to you but it’s progress to me!
So, for the other five folks who have no idea what I’m talking about, let me define Reiki for you:
Reiki is a healing technique that is achieved by channeling the Universal Life Force energy into the client, by means of touch, to activate the natural healing processes of the client’s body and restore physical well-being.
If that sounds a little woo-woo, consider this: some of the United States’ most respected hospitals have incorporated Reiki into their patient care models, including Johns Hopkins, Yale, the University of Pennsylvania, and Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital.
BOOM!
I’m sure you’ve heard of “laying hands” in church groups. <--That’s energy healing.
I’ll bet when a friend tells you about something painful that happened to them, you put your hand on their back and tell them how sorry you are. <— That’s energy healing.
I’d even guess that you’ve said these words across the world when talking to a loved one on the phone, through email, or text: "I’m sending you love.” <— You guessed it; that’s energy healing.
The difference between those three examples and what I do is that I’m trained and know how to apply Reiki to specific parts of your physical and energetic body that most need healing. Not only can I work directly with those specific areas but I also work intuitively, which means that I can sense other areas in your body that need care, or issues that are related to energetic blocks within your chakras.
When Reiki is applied to a chakra, it works to open that chakra and release energetic blockages that you probably didn’t even know you had. Those blockages manifest in connection with some ailment, whether emotional or physical, and we work together to identify where that's happening in your body. Once the block is released, your chakra reacts by growing stronger, and working more efficiently, which makes you feel better. It’s a quicker and more natural way to heal.
Over the next few weeks, I’ll be talking about chakras and you’re just going to have to trust me that you’ll find it all rather interesting. Once you realize how specific chakras are connected to specific physical and emotional parts of the human body and psyche, connecting the dots of your own pains and issues becomes pretty fascinating.
In the meantime, if you’re ready to take the leap and dive into some healing that will make you a believer, reach out. I’m ready for you!
