 FAQs for Reiki Sessions

  • Reiki is a gentle energy healing technique that channels universal life force energy to support the body's natural healing processes. By placing hands lightly on or above the body, Reiki helps to clear energy blockages, promoting balance, relaxation, and overall well-being.

  • During a Reiki session, you'll lie comfortably on a massage table, fully clothed. As the practitioner places their hands lightly on or above different areas of your body, you may experience warmth, tingling, or a deep sense of calm. Each session is unique, but most people leave feeling relaxed, rejuvenated, and more centered.

  • The number of Reiki sessions needed varies depending on your goals. Some clients feel significant benefits after just one session, while others may find that a series of sessions deepens their healing and helps maintain balance. To support ongoing well-being, you may feel called to schedule monthly Reiki sessions. Your practitioner can help create a personalized plan that suits your needs.

  • To prepare for your Reiki session, wear comfortable clothing and arrive with an open mind. While no special preparation is needed, staying hydrated and taking a few moments to relax beforehand can enhance your experience. Feel free to share any specific intentions or areas of concern with your practitioner before the session begins.

  • After a Reiki session, practice gentle self-care. Drink plenty of water to help your body process and integrate the energy work. Spending time outside in nature can be especially grounding; take a walk, breathe in fresh air, or simply sit and connect with the earth. Allow yourself time to rest and fully absorb the benefits of the session. Journaling any thoughts or feelings that arise can also be helpful. Trust your body and give yourself the space to relax and rejuvenate.

 FAQs for Embodied Breathwork Sessions

  • Embodied Breathwork is a powerful practice that uses specific breathing patterns as a tool to get you out of your head and into your body. It helps you connect deeply with yourself, release stored tension or emotions, and tap into your body's innate wisdom. Think of it as a reset button for your whole being! Benefits can include:

    • Reduced stress and anxiety

    • Improved mood and energy

    • Better sleep

    • Enhanced self-awareness

    • Deeper connection with yourself and your body

    By bypassing the chatter of your mind, breathwork allows you to access and process emotions and sensations on a physical level. It's a beautiful way to pause, tune in, and come back to yourself amidst the whirlwind of life and motherhood.

  • A typical session lasts about 90 minutes and includes:

    • Welcome & Intention setting: We'll get cozy and set the tone for our journey together.

    • Active Breath: This is where the magic happens! We'll dive into the breathwork practice.

    • Integration phase: A chance for your body to soak in the experience and process what came up.

    • Debrief and Processing: We'll gently come back and chat about your experience if you'd like.

    Throughout the session, you might feel all sorts of things - physical sensations, emotions bubbling up, or the urge to move. It's all welcome here! I'm right there with you, ready to guide and support you every step of the way.

  • Absolutely! Breathwork can be a powerful tool for managing mom guilt and overwhelm by:

    • Giving you space to pause and reset

    • Helping release stored emotions

    • Reconnecting you with your intuition

    • Recharging your energy

    • Building resilience to stress

    Remember, taking time for yourself isn't selfish - it's essential. By nurturing yourself, you're better equipped to show up fully for your little ones.

  • While embodied breathwork can be an amazing tool for many, it's not a one-size-fits-all practice. It's an active breath that moves energy in your body, leading to powerful physical and emotional experiences. One-on-one sessions are perfect for beginners, offering personalized guidance as you explore this practice.

    It’s important to consult your primary care physician/mental health provider before trying breathwork if you have: cardiovascular complications, high or abnormal blood pressure, history of aneurysms, epilepsy or history of seizures, anyone on heavy medication, severe psychiatric symptoms (particularly psychosis or paranoia), bipolar disorder, osteoporosis, recent surgery, glaucoma, pregnancy, an active addiction, any person with mental illness who isn’t in treatment or lacks adequate support.

    In our sessions, you’re always in control. If anything feels too intense, you can pause or stop at any time. Your well-being is the top priority. We’ll tailor each session to your unique needs, creating a safe and nurturing space for you to explore the power of breath, one inhale at a time.
