What happens in a Reiki Session?
Reiki is best held in a peaceful setting, but it can be carried out anywhere. The patient will sit in a comfortable chair or lie on a table. There may or may not be music, depending on the patient’s preference. The practitioner places their hands slightly over specific areas which covers 7 Chakras using different hand shapes, for between 2 and 5 minutes. The hands can be placed over 20 different areas of the body. There will be a gap of few inches between practitioner’s hand and receiver.
While the practitioner holds their hands lightly on or over the body, the transfer of energy takes place. During this time, the practitioner’s hands may be warm and tingling. Each hand position is held until the practitioner senses that the energy has stopped flowing. When the practitioner feels that the heat, or energy, in their hands has abated, they will remove their hands and may place them over a different area of the body.
