What Is Reiki? A Gentle Reset for Mind and Body

Last Updated:

Reiki is a gentle, calming practice that helps your body shift out of stress and into balance — no pressure, just deep rest.

Reiki is often misunderstood — but at its core, it’s a gentle, non-invasive practice that helps calm the nervous system and restore balance on a deep level.

It works by encouraging the body to shift from stress mode (fight-or-flight) into rest-and-repair. This shift is where healing — both physical and emotional — can begin.

During a session, you lie down fully clothed while gentle hand placements guide energy throughout the body. There’s no force, no pressure — just space to let go.

People often describe the experience as:

  • A deep sense of calm
  • Emotional release without needing to talk
  • Physical lightness or warmth
  • Clarity or insight they didn’t expect

Whether you’re new to energy work or simply feeling burnt out, Reiki can offer a moment of stillness in a world that rarely stops.
