25 kitchen tables
a free reiki healing offer
hello there : )
in January 2025 i completed a Level 1 Reiki Training. before attending a second training in May, i am looking to do 25 free “kitchen table” reiki sessions.
would you be interested in being 1 of the 25?
what this entails:
1) you’ll pick a day/time
2) the session will be at your space and likely take 45 minutes to 1 hour total:
- 10 minutes to check-in and set up
- 20 - 30 minutes for the session
- 10 minutes afterward for questions/sharing
3) i’ll send a follow up questionnaire in the days after the session to ask what, if anything, the session may have helped with or feedback about the session. this feedback is very useful information for me as i consider offering reiki sessions in the future!
a bunch of good questions
what is reiki?
reiki is a Japanese word (“rei”+”ki”)
i have found “rei” to be variously translated as “transcendent”, or “spiritual wisdom”, or “universal”
and “ki” being translated as “energy” or “force”
taken together, then, you could say or “spiritually/transcendent guided life energy” or “transcendent healing force”
does reiki have any negative effects?
one of the reasons i was drawn to learn about and now offer reiki is because it has no negative side effects. it can not hurt you. it can not exacerbate an underlying injury or condition. it can only promote healing/relief/balance.
what is “kitchen table” reiki?
reiki sessions are sometimes done on a reiki treatment or massage table. i don’t have that equipment! haha. but reiki healing can be just as effective when you are sitting in a chair at the kitchen table. and so as a means to train in offering reiki and to meet people where they are (literally!) i am offering to treat you at your own kitchen table!
if i have a friend or family member with me, can they also get a healing session?
so long as I don’t have an appointment/commitment right after, i’m happy to offer an additional session : )
what does reiki heal?
reiki energy is said to have its own innate “intelligence”. in a reiki healing session, the practitioner (that would be me) channels reiki to the recipient (you!).
the reiki energy itself then moves through the various aspects/levels of your being, with an ultimate purpose of supporting health and flourishing.
this may sound like a vague/nonspecific answer (because it is!) - but it is because the expression the healing takes can be varied
maybe you see an improvement in your physical health (fewer aches and pains, more energy, improved sleep). maybe you notice improved emotional well-being (a feeling of relief, calm, ease, peace). maybe you begin to feel motivated to pursue inspiring projects and ideas.
what “healing” looks like is particular to the recipient.
