What is Reiki?

Reiki is a Japanese energy healing practice developed in the early twentieth century by Mikao Usui. The word Reiki translates as 'universal life energy' — Rei meaning universal or spiritual, and Ki meaning life force energy (the same concept as Qi in Chinese medicine and Prana in the yogic tradition). The practice involves the gentle placement of hands on or above the body to support the flow of this energy.

At LifeForce Hub, Reiki sessions are offered alongside broader energy work — a term that encompasses a range of intuitive, hands-on and hands-off approaches to working with the body's energetic field. Sessions are led by Lindsay and are adapted to the individual. You remain fully clothed throughout.

The experience of Reiki varies between individuals. Many people report a deep sense of relaxation, warmth or tingling during the session. Some notice emotional shifts or vivid imagery. Others simply feel very still and rested. There is no correct response — the body receives what it needs.

What happens during a session?

01

Arrival & intention

The session opens with a brief conversation about what you are bringing to the session and any areas of the body or life you would like to focus on. You are invited to set an intention, however simple.

02

Lying down & receiving

You lie fully clothed on a treatment table. Lindsay begins to work with your energy field — using gentle hand placements on or above the body, moving through a sequence of positions from head to feet.

03

The session

The session continues in silence or with soft music. Lindsay follows her intuition as well as the traditional Reiki hand positions, spending more time in areas that seem to call for attention. You are invited simply to rest and receive.

04

Closing & grounding

The session closes with a grounding practice. Lindsay shares any observations from the session and there is space to rest quietly before leaving.

What might you explore?

Reiki & Energy Work draws people looking for deep relaxation, energetic support or a gentle complement to other healing work. Common reasons for attending include:

  • Finding a space of genuine rest and restoration
  • Supporting the body during a period of stress, illness or recovery
  • Exploring energy healing as a complement to other therapeutic or spiritual practices
  • Working with a sense of energetic depletion, heaviness or stagnation
  • Curiosity about what energy healing actually feels like

Reiki is not a medical treatment and does not replace medical care. If you are receiving treatment for a medical condition, please continue to follow your healthcare provider's advice.

How this connects to LifeForce

NOTICE

EXPERIENCE

PRACTISE

Reiki & Energy Work sits within the Experience dimension of the LifeForce approach — it offers a quality of deep rest and receptivity that is difficult to access through effort or intention alone. For many people, it provides a felt sense of what it means to be held and supported, which can be profoundly restorative after periods of depletion or stress. The stillness it cultivates also feeds directly into the Notice dimension — the capacity to be present with what is, rather than constantly managing or doing.
