What is Reiki Sound Bath and why you should try it.

Reiki Sound Bath in progress

Let’s be honest, there are a lot of energy healing practitioners out there: Reiki practitioners are being attuned every day and sound therapy is trending in the wellness space. Both of these ancient modalities offer us a pathway to rediscover our inner balance and harmony. To help assist others along the way to healing, each practitioner offers a unique brand of techniques incorporating a hybrid of their specialties. My favorite healing combo would be reiki and sound. 

I’ve been offering reiki sound baths over the last year and while each person experiences a sound bath differently, there is no denying the power of the reiki/sound combo. While they each have their individual medicinal qualities, they share in providing a powerful conduit to greater balance, vitality, and inner peace through harmonizing the mind, body, and spirit. 

Below is a list of benefits for both Reiki and Sound Healing 

Reiki, is a Japanese healing technique based on the concept of channeling universal life energy to promote healing and relaxation. The word "Reiki" itself translates to "universal life energy" (rei) and "vital energy" (ki), emphasizing its focus on tapping into the body's innate healing abilities.

Benefits of Reiki:

• Stress Reduction: Reiki promotes deep relaxation, helping to alleviate stress and tension stored in the body. 

• Pain management: Reiki is effective in reducing pain levels, whether it's chronic pain or discomfort from injuries or illnesses. It works by targeting the root cause of pain and promoting natural healing.

• Spiritual Growth: The mind becomes quieter, and the nervous system is calmer, creating space to connect with the spiritual aspect of oneself.  I’ve had many clients express moments of clarity after a session. 

• Emotional Healing: Reiki can help release suppressed emotions and assist in managing feelings such as grief, anger, or depression by restoring harmony within oneself.

• Boosted Immunity: Your body's energy centers (chakras) are balanced and the flow of life force energy is supported, making your immune system more resilient.

• Improved sleep quality: Reiki can help restore balance to the body's energy centers, allowing for better sleep patterns and more restful nights.

Benefits of Sound Healing:

• Stress Relief and Relaxation: The soothing tones and vibrations of sound healing instruments can induce a deep state of relaxation, helping to reduce stress, anxiety, and tension held in the body.

• Balancing Energy Centers: Sound healing helps to balance and align the chakras, promoting overall energetic harmony and vibrancy. 

• Increased focus and clarity: A sound healing session helps clear mental clutter, improve concentration, and enhance cognitive function.

• Improved Sleep Quality: The incorporation of sound healing into your bedtime routine can improve the quality of your sleep and relieve insomnia.

• Emotional Release and Healing: Sound vibrations have the power to penetrate deeply into the subconscious mind, facilitating emotional release and healing. They can help release stagnant emotions and trauma stored in the body. 

• Deepened meditation practice: Through sound healing, meditators can deepen their meditative experience by encouraging relaxation, enhancing mindfulness, and promoting inner peace.

As you can see, there is a lot of overlap with the benefits, which is an indication that each modality working in conjunction with the other can create a more powerful experience.  

Sometimes it takes several sessions and other times just one, to gain the effects but if there is nothing that you feel at the time, know that you are shifting energy by creating space to allow yourself a moment of self-care.  

If you’d like to try this experience, I offer both group and individual sessions.
