Does my pet need to be present for a pet session?

No, your pet does not need to be present. I am able to send Reiki and healing energy without their physical presence, as well as receive messages from them. Although, I have found many pets want to be present or nearby! If you booked a pet session for yourself and a pet who has passed away, you can have mementos and pictures nearby, but they are not necessary—do whatever feels most comfortable for you.

What can I expect during a session?

During a pet session, I will tune into your pets energy and we will discuss the purpose of the session. I will show you how to send Reiki healing to your pet and you can practice as I share Reiki with your pet. Pets are very aware of what is happening and can get pretty talkative as I connect and send healing energy! Throughout the session, I will share what I’m feeling from your pet and any messages that they would like to deliver. During the session you will also experience the healing energy and may receive messages from your pets too!

For a pre-recorded people sessions, you will receive a pre-recorded healing and reading that you can watch as many times as you’d like. I will send Reiki through the video which will focus on the intention that you provided when you booked (if applicable). After the healing portion of the video, I will share messages I received for you during the session. For a live people session, I will tune into your energy and we will discuss your intention. Then, I will share Reiki with you and any messages that come through. For both types of people sessions, it is recommended that you are in a quiet space and comfortable position, either sitting or lying down, and focused solely on the healing. During the healing you may experience sensations in your body, smell specific scents, see visions and images, hear songs or messages or get very cold/hot. Whatever you experience is exactly what your body needs to to move and integrate the healing energy.

How does Reiki work? How do you receive messages?

Reiki is a form of energy healing that draws on the spiritual energy within and around us to heal and balance our minds, bodies, emotions and spirit. I channel that energy and direct it to clear blocks and shift energy so that you or your pet can experience peace, relaxation and whatever your intention for the session is.

When I share Reiki and tap into your or your pet’s energy, I receive messages through my five senses. Many times I will feel aches, pains or emotions so that I can use my own body to help alleviate and release them. I may also receive guidance, suggestions and messages that relate to your specific intention. Pets often communicate and share messages with me through words, feelings or visuals.

What should I do to prepare for a session?

Take a deep breath and relax! Make sure you are in a comfortable space and have uninterrupted time. Some people like to have something handy to take notes. All sessions are virtual at this time, so you will need technology. For live sessions, you will need to download zoom on your phone or computer and have internet connection. For pre-recorded video sessions, you will receive a video file to play on your phone, computer, iPad, etc. You can watch it and experience the healing and reading at anytime.

What should I do after a session?

For pet sessions: Make sure that you and your pet stay hydrated. Your pet may get energetic or sleepy after the session, depending on what their body needs to integrate the healing energy. If you’d like to continue to give your pet Reiki at any time, you absolutely can using the techniques learned during the session. If you have any questions you can always reach out!

For people sessions: After the live session or anytime you watch your pre-recorded video, drink lots of water and ground yourself by going outside and placing your feet on the ground (barefoot if possible), eating root vegetables (carrots, potatoes, etc.) or grounding yourself in another way. Listen to your body—some people find that exercise and movement feels good after a session, while others find that a warm bath or a nice nap does the trick! You will experience an energy upgrade over the next few days, so take care of yourself and stay hydrated. For pre-recorded video sessions: You can watch the video as many times as you’d like—each time you experience the healing, it will work on a deeper layer. If you have questions you can always reach out!

How can I learn Reiki?

I currently offer a 1:1 training and coaching program on Reiki—you can learn more here! If you’re interested in a self-paced online course option (coming soon!), you can sign up for the waitlist here.

Everyone can learn Reiki because we are all born with an innate ability to use Reiki. You are using Reiki anytime you comfort someone with a hug, hold your head or stomach when it aches, manifest with intention, and in so many other situations. Reiki training teaches you how to focus energy and strengthen your capacity to heal yourself and others. It also helps you build a deeper connection with yourself through healing physical, mental, emotional and spiritual layers—all in the spirit of opening your system up to channel pure, high-vibrational, healing energy!

Do you host private Reiki Circles?

Yes! If you’d like to book me for an event or an intimate group Reiki Circle with you and your friends and family (and pets!), contact me.
