-Taking care of yourself, and especially
the mind-body connection, is a lifelong practice. It's worth it, taking that time
and really committing to it, because the results have
completely changed my life. -Hi, I'm Kate,
and I'm doing a Reiki and sound killing
treatment today. When I am really stressed out, my body tends to get
really bad inflammation, and that has typically
come out on my skin. So I got to a point
where I just knew I needed to try something different.
And that's when I started first getting energy
healing treatments. So, today, my goal
with this Reiki session is just really part
of my continued effort for emotional
and stress management. -My name is Queenie Hilfer. I am a Reiki master teacher,
sound healer, and the founder of my own
private healing practice called Reiki and Flow. So for anybody
who's new to Reiki and doesn't know anything
about what it is, it is a really beautiful,
gentle, but very potent Japanese energy
healing modality. So Reiki, as with sound,
is vibrational medicine. Reiki originated in Japan. Mikao Usui, often referred
to as Usui Sensei, he came from a lineage
of Samurai. So he was trained
in martial arts, he was very interested
in divination. He was very interested
in world religions, so one of the big
influences of Reiki is actually Tendai Buddhism. Reiki is not
a religion whatsoever, but it's very, very spiritual.
Hi Kate. -Hi.
-It's been a minute. So what brings you
to Reiki today? -So I wanted to come in
and get a session today just because I haven't
seen you in a while. And I've been doing
a lot of personal work and would just love
your support. -Well, let's do
a chakra reading. And we can take a look and kind
of see your energy centers and what the flow is of each.
-Okay. -And that'll really help
to kind of inform where we dig deeper
into the treatment. -Yeah. I'd love that. -So after the consultation,
I smudge my client. I make sure I cleanse
their energy because we're about
to go into ceremony. I take out my crystal pendulum.
I do a chakra scan. So I scan each of
their energy centers, and that's seven energy centers coming out of the chakra system
from India. And that really gives us
an opportunity of visual to kind of see
how open, closed, how much energy is flowing
in each of those chakras. Then after the chakra scan,
we move over to the table. I have the client lie on the
table, get nice and cozy, while I place an eye mask over
their eyes and lots of crystals. And then we get
into the treatment. So just starting to drop in, you want to take
a big deep breath in. Push that breath all the way
down the length of the body, out the feet and out the toes. Go ahead and do that
one more time. Big, deep breath
in through the crown, pushing it down the body
and out the toes. So then I love to layer
in some beautiful, beautiful sound healing.
And whatever is to come next. Just allowing yourself
to be fully open, present, and [inaudible]. What Reiki is really good at,
is it helps us to move that through the divine
technology of the body. As well as it helps
kind of get us out of that busy beta brainwave state
where all that ruminating, that mental chatter is going on,
and then it drops us down to a deeper meditative
alpha-beta brainwave state. And when we're there, we're able
to access emotions, memories, beliefs because this is all
through the subconscious mind. It's going to help move
heavy emotions through the body. So we're talking stress,
anxiety, trauma, grief, shock, depression,
all of those things. That's energy. All these emotions are energy
and they get stuck in the body when we don't allow
ample time to process, to really acknowledge
those emotions. So deep breath in.
And let it go. So a favorite for clients
is the ocean drum, also known as a wave drum
or ocean wave drum. They often feel
they're under waves. They feel a lot of release. I love to also use
my Koshi chimes. So they have really
beautiful tunings, and they sound like amazing — it's almost like a circular
sound that happens with these Koshi chimes.
And I really hold the intention of sending lots of healing
to their inner child. So coming out of
a Reiki treatment, a client can, you know,
feel a little bit groggy, so I guide them to bring
their consciousness back into their body. I guide them to anchor
in healing the transmission into their root chakra,
into their earth star chakra. From there,
I really kind of direct them to start calling it back
into their body. So how was that for you?
How do you feel? -I feel really good.
Very relaxed and just calm. Yes, today's session really
helped my mind-body connection, as Reiki always does. It's just this continual
maintenance that I'll always do. My advice to anyone
considering trying Reiki, especially for your first time,
is to go into it open-minded. Your experience is going
to be totally unique, so trying to go in
without expectations and really just being open
to however the session goes. -We do need to feel it
to heal it, there's no other way.
There's no getting around that. And then it's this
beautiful life force energy and accepting that
into your system.

It’s a mind body and Spirit connection not just mind and body
So demonic please don’t go to reiki masters they transfer demons into you
What if the client needs to cry or purge?
I had a few reiki sessions with a healer named Julia at Holistic Pachamama in L.A. No words! Immense gratitude! 🙏
Reiki finally helped me get pregnant after 4 years of trying daily ❤️❤️❤️
Where did you get that sound bowl you are using in the beginning
after seeing this im cancelling my reiki appointment
So it's witchcraft
I’ve taken several courses in reiki . This wasn’t what I was taught
Plz someone tell me where can I ind this in MARYLAND. I am too lazy to do my own research.
If you claim to be a Christian then please stay away from these practices. Too much for me to get into it here, but there are plenty of great preachers on YouTube that explain it. Even ex Reiki masters will say the same.
Reiki looks amazing
I just had a reiki healing treatment locally where I live to help me with my life and stress and it was wonderful , and I am not a bot , get real , just stating that this a wonderful treatment to help one self and get on track and feel better .
from one to 10 stars this is zero stars.
If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration.
Nikola Tesla.
Modern woman for ya.
I was a little skeptical my first time getting reiki done and then after i had it done… i’ve never felt so relaxed and calm before!
U all need Jesus 100% this is wrong! U guys are opening your selves up to the spirit world and I bet u guys don’t even know it! God said to come as u are and I will give u rest! Reiki is demonic! If u want to save your soul, then Jesus is the only way!
Peace and love to all
What are your fee for using reiki and sound therapy
Reiki
The bot/spam comments queenie put up is so unprofessional and sad. And i may or may not have reported all of them as spam. Bc thats what they were.
Doctors and Fake healing Christian Pastors scared of this cause it messes with their money!
Reiki is Japanese for bullsh*t.
What a scam
I have tried reiki before. But I practice zero-point energy healing. 🙏🧚♀🙌💞🌹
Hi ,how to activate Reiki in my body ?
can reiki cure food allergy? how many hours of reiki does it take?
Does it actually work tho
This looks like the biggest bunch of BS I've ever seeen.
I feel consistent headache..reiki treatment will b proven helpful for me or not..i am feeling headache after panic attack
All this is just rest and relaxation. All the spiritual stuff is a bs placebo. “Left feeling groggy” what do u expect when ur laying in a sleeping position with relaxing sounds being played and a hot towel on ur face💀
So she has done Reiki before? NO. We need a skeptic. Someone who has never done it and thinks it's bullshit. The video would be more impactful if an OPEN-MINDED skeptic did it and actually felt something afterward.
Love this!!!
Wtf is divine technology
Maybe that's why my face turns red when I'm working sometimes! I do get stressed a lot
I am looking for my first time how it’s possible contact me please
