Have you ever been in a country where you don’t speak the language — and somehow still got your point across? That’s energy healing. You’re already doing it. Reiki just teaches you to speak it fluently.
In this episode, we’re diving deep into one of my most passionate topics: **Reiki.** What it actually is, what the science says, and why I believe this practice belongs in every single person’s life. Whether you’re brand new to the concept or you’ve been curious for years, this one’s for you.
I’m also sharing details about my upcoming **April 11th & 12th Reiki trainings** — and why I think you should be there
What We Cover
- The analogy that finally makes Reiki *click* — think: traveling abroad, language barriers, and a 603 area code
- What Reiki actually is — the history, the Japanese roots, and how it works
- The science behind energy healing (yes, there are real studies — we go there)
- **Reiki I vs. Reiki II:** what each level is really about and why we never rush the process
- Why you might already be doing energy healing without knowing it
- The truth about energetic transference — and why training protects you
- Myth-busting: Does it require belief? Is it religious? Can you hurt someone?
- The 5 Reiki Principles — a simple daily practice that can shift everything
Science & Studies Mentioned
- Research on **electromagnetic fields emitted from practitioners’ hands** — measured in the same frequency range (0.3–30 Hz) used by medical PEMF devices
- **2019 meta-analysis** in the *Journal of Evidence-Based Integrative Medicine* — Reiki shown more effective than placebo for pain, anxiety, fatigue, and mood
- **2010 study** in the *Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine* — Reiki produced significant reductions in anxiety and improvements in heart rate variability
- The **NIH National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health** recognizes Reiki research
- Reiki programs at **Yale, Johns Hopkins, and Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center**
Upcoming Reiki Trainings
I would love to see you in person this April. These are small, intimate trainings — you’ll receive your attunement, practice with the group, and leave with a manual and a practice you can use that same night.
**Reiki I — Self Healing**
April 11th + April 12th
*Perfect for beginners. No experience needed. This level is all about you — learning to practice Reiki on yourself for healing, grounding, and self-care.*
Questions? Just DM me — I mean it. I’d rather answer a hundred questions than have you talk yourself out of something that could change your life.
