Whether you are receiving an in-person or distance Reiki session, the preparation is the same.

To prepare for your session, it is encouraged to read the information on this website, especially if you are new to Reiki. Learn about the things that you can do to have the best possible Reiki session experience.

Also, think about what intentions you may have for your session. You’ll have a chance to share these at the consultation and at the beginning of your session.

There are many different reasons to come for Reiki and intentions which you may have for the session.

Maybe it is to experience this energy healing for yourself and you are listening to a call of curiosity that you feel ready to act upon.

Or, maybe you have some specific needs that you’d like Reiki to support your healing for such as…

Relief from a hectic, stressful job or lifestyle which may be causing you mind racing, muscular tension, tinnitus or other stress-induced mental or physical symptoms

Feeling trapped or blocked from achieving your desired goals
Alleviation of a physical chronic ache or pain

Boosting results from “conventional” medical or therapeutic support you are receiving

Relief from anxiety or feeling easily triggered or reactive

Feelings of greater self-love or self-esteem

Empowerment during a time of career or personal transition and readiness for change

Feeling connection to spirit/spirituality

Desiring mental clarity

Peacefulness in coping with grief, sudden loss or navigating the unknown

These are all examples of reasons why people just like yourself might come to receive Reiki. Whatever your intention(s), Reiki is is never a replacement for medical treatment.

Preparing for Your Reiki Session

It is suggested to refrain from caffeine, sugar or alcohol at least three hours before a session. If you are receiving a distance session, refrain from these things during the session as well.

Avoid having a heavy meal before a session.

Use the restroom if you need so that you can enjoy the full session with minimum interruptions.

Wear comfortable clothing. In an in-person session, you will be laying on a massage table with linens and blankets. You can get under them or lay on top. For a remote session, find a comfortable place to lay down or recline.

Turn your devices to ‘do not disturb’.

Creating Your Space for a Distance Reiki Session

While it is not required, it is strongly suggested that you give yourself this session to focus on you and experience Reiki in a mindful, quiet manner.  Turn your devices to ‘do not disturb’. Do what you need to to ensure any people or animals in your environment will know not to disturb you during this time. Additionally, you may listen to low playing music, light a candle, hold crystals or have them nearby, burn incense to clear your space – whatever you like to do to be comfortable in quiet. If you’d like to listen to music, you may enjoy listening to my playlists on Spotify or YouTube.

For the session, you’ll lay down in your bed or sit in your favorite chair. Have water available to drink if you are thirsty. Some clients enjoy being in nature or lying on the earth. The possibilities are endless. There are many options to prepare your special space before receiving your Reiki session. Plan ahead so that your space is ready for your scheduled session.
