Distant Reiki Healing Explained

Transcending Time and Space.

The Distant Reiki technique is a powerful tool that allows Reiki practitioners to offer energy healing sessions to recipients who are not physically present in the same location as the practitioner. This technique transcends the limitations of time and space, enabling the practitioner to transmit spiritual energy without needing physical touch.    

Many people wonder how Distant Reiki works. According to traditional Japanese Reiki philosophy, the technique invokes a state of Oneness or connection to everything. In this way, the practitioner is not "sending" Reiki energy to the recipient but instead feeling one with them and sharing the energy in this state of Oneness. This principle of Oneness applies to other forms of distance healing as well.

You don't have to do anything special to receive Distant Reiki healing, but it's best to lie down and be still. The recipient and the practitioner can agree on a time beforehand, and the person receiving must sit or lie down for the specified time. The effects of distant healing are virtually no different than hands-on healing. An experienced Reiki healer can send healing energy to a person anywhere in the world. The energy transmissions in a remote session are just as strong as if they were delivered in person, directly with the hands. You can also order distant healing for your loved ones. Knowing they are receiving a Distant Reiki treatment is best to be open to receiving the most benefit.
The practitioner and recipient agree on a specific time and date for the session, and the recipient can prepare by setting up a particular time to lie down or meditate during the session if they wish. 

The session can be conducted over the phone or online using video conferencing tools like Zoom, Skype, or FaceTime. Before the session begins, the practitioner may ask the client to fill out an intake form or have a discussion to understand their needs and intentions for the session. The recipient then lies down or sits comfortably, with head support recommended for greater relaxation.

Alternatively, the recipient can email a photo of themselves to the practitioner before the session, along with their name, age, location, and any intention they have for the session. This information helps the practitioner connect with the client if they have not met. There is no requirement to speak online or by phone; it's up to the preferences of the practitioner and client. The client rests comfortably or meditates during the session. After the session, the practitioner and client may discuss briefly or exchange emails to share observations or ask questions.

Using Distant Reiki to Heal Past & Address Future Events

A Reiki master can reach back in time to address and heal traumatic issues from the past to help with future success. Research studies in neuroplasticity and growth-mindset psychology have shown that Reiki enables this energy healing. 

What’s more, Reiki can also be used through time to identify situations that occurred in the past and events that will happen in the future. For people who struggle with acceptance of past trauma or worry excessively about future scenarios, a Reiki treatment can facilitate healing and help manifest future betterment.

Let’s say a client with an eating disorder, who attributes their condition to a controlling parent who is now deceased, contacts me from another country. By sending Distant Reiki to that past relationship, the client can release the anxieties that stem from this lack of control. By feeling more in control of their lives, they can incorporate healthier food habits. The same holds true for future events. I had a client call me for a Distant Reiki session to prepare her for a law exam she anticipated taking in six months. She was suffering extreme anxiety over the thought of failing the exam. Since we had the date of the exam, I was able to perform a Distant Reiki healing. Six months later, she passed the bar exam.
