The Medicine of Reiki
May 02, 2025
Reiki is more than a modality, it’s a remembrance.
A sacred return to your energetic blueprint.
What Is Reiki?
Reiki is more than a service — it’s an invitation to organize, uplift, and realign your energetic body.
It’s an opportunity to make peace with your past and step fully into your power as the architect of your future.
Reiki originated in Japan in the early 20th century. It was said to be founded by Mikao Usui in 1922 after he experienced a profound spiritual awakening during a 21 day deep meditation and fasting referred to as "shugyo" on Mount Kurama. However, later discoveries showed other branches of Reiki were actively practiced by 4 other individuals prior to Usui's revelation. Usui's Reiki techniques were widely accepted across the world after Haywao Takata shared these practices with the west, first in Hawaii. Usui developed Reiki as a hands-on healing technique that channels universal life energy to promote balance, healing, and well-being.
The word "Reiki" comes from two Japanese words:
“Rei,” meaning universal life, and “Ki,” meaning vital energy.
Reiki is a light-touch healing art that works to dissolve energetic blockages while attuning you to the pure, unconditional love and light of the universal source.
Practitioners act as open vessels, allowing this life-force energy to flow through them and into the recipient, guiding the body, mind, and spirit back into balance.
This gentle yet powerful modality encourages deep healing and vibrational elevation across all layers of your being — energetic, spiritual, emotional, mental, and physical — while radiating outward into the inner and outer auric fields.

The Soulful Embodiment Difference
Petra offers both in-person and distance Reiki sessions.
Distance Reiki is a powerful option for those who live afar or simply aren’t feeling well enough to visit the healing space in person—yet still desire to receive the same depth of care, energy clearing, and spiritual restoration from the comfort of their own home.
Petra's energy sessions are encrypted healing containers—light-coded, sacred, and deeply intentional. Within this space, she offers light-touch Reiki therapy, woven with a curated blend of healing tools:
- Crystals for energy amplification
- Tuning forks + crystal sound bowl resonance
- Aromatherapy with pure essential oils
- Ritual burning of sacred herbal blends
Each session is a journey through the energetic body. Chakras are cleansed and rebalanced, stagnant emotions are released, energetic cords are cut, and unconscious patterns are gently illuminated.
Every offering is tailored to your unique intentions and current energetic state, which Petra explores with you before the session begins.
You’ll leave not only feeling lighter and more connected—but with channeled insight and gentle integration practices (homework) to support you in embodying the version of yourself you’re calling in.
