Reiki for Pregnant and Post Partum Women

What is Reiki?

The Japanese word Reiki is a composite between “rei” the soul, reverence; sacredness; blessing and “ki” referring to something unseen, atmosphere, the energy of the universe. Therefore we can translate Reiki into spiritually conditioned energy, soul force or spiritual power, Universal spiritual presence or holy, healing spirit presence. It is the vibration of love, harmony and healing. It fills the universe as pure light. Reiki is the essence of everything. The extent to which we can receive this vibration depends on our “receiving system” and resonates with heightened human consciousness and the receivers level of consciousness. Reiki is light infused work and can only bring love, harmony and healing.
