Reiki - a gentle healing technique that promotes stress reduction and relaxation.
What is Reiki?
Generally, the practice of Reiki that is used today was established in 1922 but has been used for thousands of years. When broken down, the Japanese term translates as Rei meaning ‘spiritually guided’ and Ki meaning ‘life force energy’. It is a practice that is used for stress reduction and relaxation while promoting healing. The Holy Fire practice of Reiki was introduced a few years ago and it is both powerful and gentle, providing purification, healing, empowerment and guidance.
Reiki has been described as pure or unconditional love, the highest vibrational energy. It is free of ego or human emotions. At times, the energies within our bodies become blocked which can create dis-ease resulting in conditions such as depression, pain or other ailments. A Reiki practitioner can consciously harness an infinite abundance of energy and channel it into their client in such a way that both the facilitator and client receive healing. Using light touch, a practitioner helps help break up the stagnant energy within the client resulting in a balanced flow of energy. Reiki can only be used for good so at the very least, the client will feel calm and relaxed.
Reiki is an ancient healing technique that promotes relaxation and stress reduction by channelling energy through the practitioner. This gentle method facilitates the body’s natural healing processes and restores emotional balance. At Sacred Connections, we create a serene environment where you can feel safe and at ease, allowing energy to move freely. Whether seeking to alleviate physical discomfort, emotional distress, or simply to enhance one's overall well-being, Reiki offers a holistic approach that can lead to profound personal insights and healing experiences.
What is the difference between In-person and Distant Reiki?
Essentially, the client will receive the same form of treatment in person as they are in their home. The preference depends on the individual as there are significant benefits for both. In-person is obviously more intimate and can create a deeper connection between the individuals. Multiple forms of therapy can be used in addition to Reiki, enriching their experience. Distant Reiki is done while the client is in the comfort of their own space. At times this has been known to lead to deeper healing. Typically, the practitioner focuses on specific points on the body, so a teddy bear will be used as a surrogate during a distance session.
What kind of Reiki is offered at Sacred Connections?
At Sacred Connections, we honour and respect all lineages of Reiki, but we practice the Usui/Holy Fire® III World Peace Reiki: The Dragon Fire Teachings™.
Usui/Holy Fire® III World Peace Reiki is an elevated Reiki practice involving deep, spiritually guided healing and global peace consciousness. The Dragon Fire Teachings™ adds a powerful mythic-symbolic dimension, invoking ancient energies for transformation, making it ideal for those drawn to mystical, elemental, or shamanic paths within Reiki.
Can anyone learn to practice Reiki?
Yes of course! If you are feeling drawn to learn more, then your soul is ready for substantial upgrades! Finding a teacher who you connect to is important as they guide you through several meditations and spiritual upgrades.
What makes Sacred Connections different?
Unlike other lineages, The Dragon Fire Teachings™ are structured to unfold over multiple days or weeks, with intentional space between lessons. This allows time to absorb the sacred energies, reflect on the rituals being taught and integrate each layer of ancient wisdom through hands-on and personalized practices. These teachings are meant to weave into your life in a way that’s real, embodied, and lasting. It is a deeply interactive, student-centered approach with time for Q&A, feedback, supporting personal and professional growth.
We teach in a way that supports all learning styles—listening, reading, writing, and hands-on experience. We teach authentically and respectfully, with reverence for the teachings, our students, and the Light of Reiki. You're not just learning techniques—you’re stepping into your highest potential. You will leave with confidence, practical tools, and a deeper connection with your divine power.
