About Inner Peace Reiki Meditation
Our Mission is Reiki
At Inner Peace Reiki Meditation, our mission is to provide high-quality Reiki and Meditation services that help our clients achieve physical, emotional, and spiritual balance. We believe in the healing power of Reiki and Meditation. We are dedicated to sharing it with others.
What is Reiki?
“Reiki” (ray-key) is Japanese for ‘universal life energy, and is also a word used to describe a system of natural healing, This tradition was founded by Mikao Usui a Japanese Buddhist, in the early 20th century and evolved as a result of his research, experience and dedication, also know as Usui Shiki Ryoho Reiki.
It is a practice of healing through hand placements on the body. Reiki means the unification of universal and vital life energy. Achieving this connection can bring a sensation of inner peace. A complete Reiki lifestyle can lead to 'Anshin Ritsumei', the ability to experience inner peace amidst external chaos.
We live in a world full of energy that nourishes and maintains all living things. When this energy flows uninterrupted there is balance and harmony within and around us, and we experience a sense of well being.
There are many variations of Reiki, but in essence Reiki treatments can help the body emotionally or spiritually. It is a tradition that is open to any belief system.
Reiki treatment is a process that anyone can enjoy in the normal course of their life. Reiki can be used alongside other conventional or complementary treatment and often helps to provide emotional support during recovery. The practice is taught by Reiki masters / teachers who have trained in the tradition passed on in person from master to student.
What can you expect with Reiki treatment?
The method of receiving Reiki is simple. The client remains clothed and lies on a couch or sits on a chair and relaxes. The practitioner gently places their hands in a series of non-intrusive positions on or near the body. There is no massage or manipulation. The whole person is treated rather than specific areas. Sessions are slotted for 1 hour and the actual Reiki treatment usually takes about 45 minutes depending on the client’s needs.
We are not trained in diagnosis and will not predict any specific outcome from treatment. If you are concerned about a certain symptom or problem, you should see your doctor. We are not licensed physicians.
What do Reiki treatments feel like?
Each person experiences Reiki differently depending on their individual needs at the time.
Clients may or may not feel sensations during a Reiki treatment. Benefits reported by recipients include deep relaxation promoting a calm, peaceful sense of well being on all levels. Some people feel sensations of heat, tingling, or experience seeing colours, whilst others can have an emotional response, indicating that shifts are taking place, allowing harmony to be restored.
What do Reiki treatments do?
Reiki is a safe and soothing treatment that can be:
~ Comforting when life is tough
The relaxing nature of Reiki can be very helpful to people especially at difficult times in our lives. We can all feel overwhelmed or disconnected, sometimes there is a real sense of isolation, both emotionally and spiritually. Reiki treatments can bring feelings of peace, centeredness and an ability to cope better with the challenges of life.
Reiki can be beneficial in circumstances that are short term, but can also support people dealing with long-standing conditions, helping to bring comfort, acceptance and a more positive outlook.
~ Supportive during pregnancy
Reiki can be wonderful for pregnant women. Treatments can be very relaxing and enjoyable for the mother.
~ Calming for children
Children usually love Reiki. The length of a session is often shorter than it would be for an adult.
~ Reassuring for animals
Animals also respond well to Reiki, they too seem to find it relaxing and soothing
~ Helpful at the end of life
In such cases Reiki can be a great comfort, helping to promote a sense of peace and acceptance for the dying and their families.
How often do I need Reiki?
A single session may be sufficient, but it is best to discuss this with your practitioner. For instance, if you have long standing emotional or spiritual issues, a series of sessions may be beneficial. In general if you find that helpful changes are taking place, it is a good idea to continue treatment.
What are the Contra-indications to Reiki?
There are no known contra-indications for Reiki. It is a non-intrusive treatment that can be delivered in a variety of settings and requires no special equipment.
Does Reiki have side effects?
Intense fatigue, feeling drained of energy, or flu-like symptoms
It is common to feel extremely tired and depleted of energy in the short-term following your Reiki session.
Furthermore, it’s also possible to experience some short-term, flu-like side effects as your body copes with the changes in energy. If these symptoms you experience persist, then it’s important to contact your physician as you may have actually contracted a virus or flu.
Don’t worry if you experience these “odd” symptoms!
While the side effects and benefits of Reiki are generally profoundly positive – there are some temporary side effects sometimes experienced by clients that may feel somewhat odd, and therefore alarming.
Positive side effects of Reiki include benefits like boosted energy levels, improved health, increased feelings of gratitude and joy, trauma release, feeling and looking more youthful, clearer thinking, improved communication/relationships, even laughter and better sleep. (These benefits vary from client to client, results may very and are not guaranteed)
Now that you’re aware of the amazing things Reiki can do for you, let’s talk about the short-lived, “odd” side effects to expect so you can feel at ease if and when you do happen to experience them:
Shifting and moving of energy in the body
Before your Reiki session, it’s likely that energy has been quite static in your body. Energy healing causes the energy to surge and shift from different areas of the body, which may feel strange foreign to you – but it’s completely normal and all a part of the process!
Tingling, bubbling, zinging sensations
This is commonly experienced as a result of the energy shifting. As negative energy clears and draws energy to different areas of the body, it’s common to feel as though something is moving quickly through you, which can feel like a tingling or bubbling sensation. Again, this is completely normal and feels good for many patients while some are slightly alarmed due to the newness of it all.
The bottom line is, the more Reiki sessions you have, the more you will get used to this sensation and more likely you’ll be able to relax and enjoy it!
Highly emotional surges or mood swings
If we’ve been harbouring a lot of negative emotions for a long period of time, the release and loss of this negative energy that occurs with a Reiki healing session can lead to some mood swings as the body, mind and spirit learns to adjust to an emotionally healthier state.
This is a great thing! Emotional surges and swings involving feelings such as anger, sadness, guilt, joy or euphoria are sensations you can expect to feel as you evolve into your higher frequency.
While Reiski side effects are typically mild, time and rest should provide quick relief.
Aside from Reiki therapy, nothing heals better than time and adequate rest. Additionally, drinking a lot of water and considering journaling and/or meditation can also go a long way in assisting your body to quickly adjust and adapt to its new and healthier state of being.
If your Reiki side effects to happen to feel severe or persist beyond 48 hours, it’s likely not due to energetic healing and it is advised that you seek medical attention.

Key Takeaways
• Reiki meditation is a spiritual healing process where you experience silence and a quiet mind.
• Begin this process by taking a deep breath and focusing on it and the energy that flows through your body.
• The healing process is complete when you feel energized. End it by slowly opening your eyes and taking deep breaths.
• It reduces stress, gives clarity of thought, and aids good sleep.
How to prepare for your appointment
Wear clean, loose-fitting, comfortable clothing. You may wish to wear natural fabrics such as cotton, linen, or silk. Remove your shoes, jewelry, and glasses before your session, and keep your phone switched off or leave it behind.
Are crystals used during Reiki?
We may use crystals during your Reiki session. Crystals add an extra element of healing to the treatment by helping to release emotional, mental, or spiritual blocks.
Crystals may be placed on or around your body, or you may be asked to hold a crystal. Though no research supports the use of crystals for healing, some claim they can have a calming effect and help with healing.
Examples of crystals that may be used include:
• rose quartz
• amethyst
• moonstone
• topaz
• tourmaline
• aquamarine
"As running water smoothes the jagged edges of a rock until it is small enough to roll away, Reiki flows to the areas of need, soothing and supporting the body's natural ability to heal itself"
What is Meditation?
Reiki meditation restores and aligns the energy elements in your body, making you stable, composed, and healthy. It breaks down all the unreleased stress in your body and makes your life happier and easier.
Meditation is a practice in which an individual uses a technique – such as mindfulness, or focusing the mind on a particular object, thought, or activity – to train attention and awareness, and achieve a mentally clear and emotionally calm and stable state.
Meditation is practiced in numerous religious traditions. The earliest records of meditation (dhyana) are found in the Upanishads, and meditation plays a salient role in the contemplative repertoire of Jainism, Buddhism and Hinduism.
Since the 19th century, Asian meditative techniques have spread to other cultures where they have also found application in non-spiritual contexts, such as business and health.
Meditation may significantly reduce stress, anxiety,
depression, and pain, and enhance peace,
perception, self-concept, and well-being. Research is ongoing to better understand the effects of meditation on health (psychological, neurological, and cardiovascular) and other areas.
