Reiki

As an Usui Reiki Practitioner and Master Teacher and profound Energetic Healing Facilitator Ashley has the ability to assist your energy system to flow in union with universal life giving energy.  Often our energetic systems are dormant and not charged with universal life flow or are spinning counter productive to our ability to fully function in life.  Ashley acts as an energy conduit assisting in the restoration of your energy system, creating a transformative energetic healing experience so you may function to your full desired capacity.

What is Reiki?

Reiki is energy medicine.  Developed, in Japan, in the early 19th century, by Dr. Mikau Usui for stress reduction, relaxation, enlightenment and healing. It is administered by the laying on of hands, and is based on the idea that an unseen life force energy flows through all of us, and is what causes us to be alive. If one's life force energy is low, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy,  healthy and calm when dealing with stressful situations. Reiki safely facilitates the healing of energetic blockages that manifest in our physical, mental and  emotional bodies.  By healing these energetic blockages Reiki helps increase the vibration of our personal energetics. Increasing your personal energetics allows for you to naturally gravitate towards things and people that are good for you, well at the same time helping you move away from things and people that are draining. 

"Reiki is love, love is wholeness, wholeness is well-being, well-being is freedom" - Dr. Mikau Usui Sensi

Why book a reiki session? 

In todays world we are continuously faced with an over stimulated culture and lifestyle. This can lead many of us to feel overly stressed, drained, anxious, fearful and tired due to our lack of energy to keep up with the hamster wheel.

Likewise we often may feel “stuck” in our professions, relationships, or by emotions brought on from deep trauma or loss.

A series of Reiki sessions offers the release from these energetic pollutions and patterns that have been weighing you down.

The experience of a Reiki session will allow you to empty your mind, calm your nervous system, and experience deep peace creating greater sustained joy in your daily life. All you have to do is be open to receiving the experience, lie down and let the magic happen.

Session Experience

A typical Reiki session will last about an hour and takes place in a quiet room with you remaining fully clothed and relaxed laying face up on a comfortable padded table.

The sessions are generally deeply relaxing, often bringing clients into the space between waking and sleeping where they can experience dream like visions, and feelings of warmth. After a Reiki session there is a feeling of weightlessness, release and regeneration.

It is recommended after a Reiki session to rest and relax, even if it is only a few moments, before stepping back into your busy life. It is also recommended to drink plenty of water after treatment to help support the body in its healing process. 

How many reiki sessions will I require?

Each person is different and requires different levels of care.  It all depends on how well your energetics are functioning, your stress levels and your decided level of ideal balance. For a full cycle of healing 7-10 sessions are recommended, 3 - 5 sessions can provide a good container of clearing. Having said this, often it may take many months of regular care to get your energetic system, clear, open and running before moving to the average biweekly or once a month tune up.

If your lifestyle is high paced, and overly stimulated with many daily interactions, it is recommended once your energy system is in flow to book in biweekly, or once a month to recharge, rebalance and recentre your energy, or alternatively take your Reiki Level One Training with Growing Whole.

How can Reiki support my Craniosacral System? 

Reiki can tune into the physical body energetically, supporting the craniosacral system.  Likewise, often physical dysfunctions and stress patterns found in the body have an emotional component to them. Reiki works wonders on clearing and healing the emotional body; healing the emotional body ripples down into the physical body subsequently supporting the release of stress patterns.
