Healing Session: A Good Thing To Do Even When You Think Are Too Stressed To Relax

There are times when you are so stressed you don’t feel like you can possibly relax. You think you must wait until the divorce/election/medical procedure is over before you can even think of feeling calm again.


Hypervigilance becomes habitual, and it may feel like it is keeping you from feeling vulnerable. Yet, what it is really doing is blocking your natural flow of life force energy.


By resetting your nervous system with a Reiki or Healing Touch session, you’re not just finding balance. You’re also opening up to new possibilities, ideas, and actions that can be more effective and stabilizing in all areas of your life. The best part is that everyone around you also benefits: the checkout clerk at Walgreens, your coworkers, friends, and especially your family.

The Best Thing About Being A Healing Touch Practitioner

The best thing about learning Healing Touch is that you can really help your family and friends.

My mom had intermittent knee pain, enough to make it difficult for her to go on her daily walks. I talked her into some short hands-on healings. I had to be a little insistent because she didn’t want me to have to ‘work’ when I visited her. So these were super informal 20-minute Netflix-watching sessions done while we were sitting together on the couch.

Afterward, her knee almost always felt better. Sometimes, the pain returned the next day, but it has now been gone for a month.

The best thing about being a Healing Touch Practitioner is that I can help my Mom feel better. That’s what it is all about.

Reiki And Healing

There are now many more new and exciting energy modalities, healing techniques, and philosophies available to anyone interested in healing. Many practices promise to access 5th-dimensional energy, quantum frequencies, and paradigm-shifting transformation.

For me, Reiki has been and continues to be the gateway to extraordinary healing states. I have taken many (like, a lot) trainings and workshops, and Reiki still feels like a foundational practice. Reiki has connected me to higher states of healing energy that are frankly mind-blowing.

Self-Reiki also stabilizes my physical body, helps me sleep, and prepares me for deep meditation. It grounds and connects me to new dimensions at the same time. As I continue to train in newer transformational healing practices, Reiki helps me integrate the new material much faster.

My experience with Reiki is that it is a life force energy that is constantly evolving as we evolve, personally and collectively.

Want to Know More About Hands-On Healing? Book A Session For Yourself!

Self Healing

A great way to learn about energy is to get a healing. A tangible, practical experience of what energy work can do for you.

There is so much energy and support available to every one of us all the time. All we have to do is tap into it. Many things in our world appear to be breaking down, yet energy is moving faster than ever. I am witnessing more people healing from diagnoses and conditions that used to be considered… well, ‘unhealable.’

I began showing people how to support themselves energetically because it was so helpful for clients healing from cancer. Doing a daily self-chakra connection is profoundly comforting, calming, and empowering.

Many of these clients went on to learn Healing Touch, Reiki, and other modalities in established accredited programs. Several have become very successful practitioners in their own healing businesses. Most people have integrated hands-on healing into their self-care and meditation practice with beautiful results.

I tend to think of myself as an energetic jump-start teacher.

If you are interested in learning how to heal yourself and even learn how to heal others, schedule a session. I will show you a few simple meditations and techniques to jump-start your self-care practice.

Energetic Healing Can Help Highly Sensitive People Feel More Comfortable In The World

Energic healing can make it possible for highly sensitive people to feel more comfortable in the world.

Over the years, I have worked with many clients who have Sensory-Processing Sensitivity. According to Elaine Aron, SPS  is found in 15 to 20% of the population. She began researching high sensitivity in 1991 and has written many books on the subject.

Highly Sensitive People are often overwhelmed when in large groups of people, agitated by loud noises, and find themselves continually aware of other people’s emotions.

Often these clients feel bad about themselves, how they never fit in as a child and were labeled antisocial. They may have been told that they were too emotional. When they come to their first healing session, they talk about feeling like something is wrong with them, instead of understanding that they have a gift.

Experiencing their body in a calm, deeply relaxed state begins to rebalance their nervous system. So many of my clients have learned to self-regulate their energy and navigate their lives with more joy… and the world needs more joy.

Even one healing can make a huge difference.

The Podcast: Dive Into Reiki

 

One night last week, I woke up in the dark before my alarm sounded and could not fall back to sleep. So I did what I always do – I put my hands on my heart and began doing a self-Reiki treatment.

For me, there is an instant sensation of expansion, connection, and physical grounding. I completely relax and can be much more present with whatever is coming up, or not coming up, in the moment.

I haven’t written a post just about Reiki lately, even though it is a fundamental part of my daily practice. My first Reiki class was in 1996, and I have probably done it every day since. The simplicity of the practice is so exquisitely beautiful.

So, what I am leading up to is a link to a fascinating Reiki podcast on Youtube by Nathalie Jaspar. It is called Dive Into Reiki.

Nathalie has interviewed over thirty established Reiki Practitioners. Check out the inspiring, high-energy Raven Keyes, who brought Reiki into operating rooms. There is a wonderful interview with one of my teachers, Kathleen Prasad, who was the first to offer Reiki to animals. The link above with Susan Mitchell’s interview particularly touched me, and I had no idea who she was before I found this podcast.

Nathalie has also interviewed another of my heroes and teacher,  Frans Stiene, as well as Pamela Miles,  Bronwen Logan, and Frank Arjava Petter.

Enjoy!

The Gift Of Regular Healing Sessions

♦
A short series of healings can reset your nervous system, body, mind, and, therefore, your experience of life. Energetic sessions provide the space for you to relax and deeply rebalance, making it so much easier to connect with your inner guidance, creativity, and life direction.
♦
I have clients that schedule sessions every week, every two weeks, and several that come once a month. Others book regular sessions for a fixed period of time to address a specific issue. They might be focusing on anxiety/panic attacks or want energetic support while going through a divorce. Several clients have found Healing Touch and Reiki sessions deepen their daily meditation practice.
♦
Here are two testimonials from clients:
♦

“I personally received several healings from Jeri for an undiagnosed condition. I was just out of energy, and at 67, I felt like I was nearing the natural end of my life. After a series of “distant healings from Jeri, I have the energy of when I was in my 40s. This took several months to unfold. I am beyond grateful for Jeri.”

“Jeri, You are the most gifted healer I’ve ever met and felt. Thank you for what seems like a lifetime of service. I am so grateful for that session today. I am pain-free and it makes me feel ready for Thursday’s surgery. Xoxo”

Energetic Healing and Self-Regulation

Self-regulation is an essential life skill.

It is how you balance and manage your emotions, thoughts, and actions to sustain a healthy lifestyle. Self-regulation helps you achieve overall life goals and aspirations.

Self-regulation is the difference between eating a whole bag of potatoes chips when you are upset instead of maintaining a healthy diet. It’s the difference between yelling at your partner instead of calmly talking through a problem that has upset you.

Self-regulation is something we each do every day with varying degrees of success. Anxiety, depression, binge eating, and self-medicating can happen when there is a lack of effective self-regulation.

You can learn to self-regulate more efficiently by receiving Healing Touch and Reiki sessions. There are so many energetic meditations, practices, and tools!

As an Energetic Practitioner, one of the many energy patterns I might find in a first session is that I am working with a person with a high abundance of life force energy in their physical body.

This is a good thing… Who doesn’t want more energy? Yet, self-regulating so much energy can be tricky. An overflow of energy can be experienced as anxiety.  It can be overwhelming and make my client feel edgy, nervous, overreactive, and even like they may be having a panic attack.

When I work with clients with this energy signature,  I often recommend daily exercise to help them self-regulate this energetic gift. Yoga is very helpful in keeping the body’s energy flowing and grounded. Running, going to the gym, or hiking can also help these high-energy people feel balanced and clear.

Energy work can help us live better and enjoy life more.

Staying Connected To Your Inner Compass With Healing Sessions

Healing Touch and Reiki sessions provide the perfect space for you to reconnect with your intuition.

In this age of false news and conflicting information, it is an essential survival necessity to stay in touch with your inner knowing, your internal compass, and your highest wisdom.

We face so many questions daily: When do I take off my mask? Should I go to that party on Saturday? Should I camp in the woods during fire season?  How can I best show up for the world?

Each one of us makes a difference. As I have written before, One grounded, centered person can shift the energy of an entire room. Each of us makes a huge difference on the planet at this time.

If your internal compass points you to a healing or breathwork session, give me a call.

Two Hour Healing Sessions

I book all my hands-on healing sessions two hours apart.

I feel so lucky and grateful that I can structure my business in this way and spend this much time with each client.

Many Energetic Practitioners have time constraints, especially working in a hospital, clinic, or spa environment. I want to say right away that even twenty minutes of Reiki and Healing Touch is profoundly beneficial. We definitely need more Energetic Practitioners in our medical culture.

For me to work in such deep altered states of consciousness in my private practice, my clients need the time to integrate the shifts they may experience after the treatment is over. It doesn’t happen every session, yet often people release such deep emotional patterns, limiting thoughts and beliefs, that they can initially feel disoriented before they get off the table.

Sometimes there is also an incredible expansion of consciousness. Openings like this are life-changing, and twenty minutes on the table after the session to reconnect gently with your body is so grounding – especially when you have to jump back in the car and continue your day.

These shifts happen more frequently when my client receives regular weekly, biweekly, or monthly sessions and every session goes deeper.
