DISTANCE REIKI • AWAKENED SWAYS
REIKI AS A SPACE TO RECEIVE, INTEGRATE,
AND RETURN.
Reiki is a practice of allowing universal life energy to flow without forcing an outcome or telling the experience what it has to become.
Within Awakened Sways, Reiki is offered as a space to become still, receive, notice, and allow what is ready to move, settle, integrate, or come into greater balance to do so in its own way.
You don't have to know what is needed before you begin.

WHAT IS REIKI?
A PRACTICE OF FLOW, NOT FORCE.
Reiki is a Japanese energy practice commonly understood as working with universal life energy.
Within Reiki, the practitioner isn't trying to command the energy, force something to happen, diagnose what is wrong, or decide what another person needs.
The practice begins with consent and willingness to receive. From there, Reiki is allowed to flow.
In my own understanding and practice, that universal life energy is connected to what I refer to as the I AM—the life and creative energy moving through and within all things.
You don't have to share that language or belief to receive Reiki through Awakened Sways.
THE ENERGY IS NOT SOMETHING I CONTROL.
My role is to open the Reiki practice, hold the space with intention, and allow the experience to move as it moves.
WE SPEND A LOT
OF LIFE DOING.

Planning
Reiki can become a different kind of movement. Not another thing to figure out. A space to receive, a space to become still enough to notice what is happening within you, without immediately trying to control it.
Sometimes that experience feels peaceful, other times things become noticeable, and sometimes very little seems to happen in the moment. Reiki doesn't need a dramatic experience to have been an experience.
Receive first • Notice second • Let meaning come in its own time.

WHAT HAPPENS DURING DISTANCE REIKI?
It's simpler than people sometimes expect.
01
CHOOSE
YOUR TIME
Choose 30, 45, or 60 minutes based on how much uninterrupted space you want.
02
GET COMFORTABLE
Before your session, find somewhere you can sit or lie down without needing to do anything else.
If comfortable, remove metal jewelry as part of the Reiki preparation.
03
RECEIVE
At your scheduled time, Reiki begins.
You don't need to clear your thoughts, force yourself to relax, visualize anything, or make something happen.
04
NOTICE
Rest. Breathe. Receive.
Notice whatever you notice without immediately deciding what it means.
A quiet Google Meet space is available if you'd like to connect briefly or use the shared space/music. Joining and camera use are optional.
THE EXPERIENCE
THERE ISN'T ONE WAY REIKI HAS TO FEEL.
Reiki is traditionally approached as a whole-person energy practice rather than something limited to one part of us. People may experience the time physically, emotionally, mentally, spiritually, energetically or simply as rest.
During a session you might notice:
• warmth or coolness
• tingling or subtle sensations
• heaviness or lightness
• colors or imagery
• thoughts or emotions becoming noticeable
• a sense of calm or stillness
• sleep or deep rest
• very little at all
None of those responses are required. You don't need to search for a blockage, convince yourself energy moved, or turn every sensation into proof that something happened.
— REIKI CAN FLOW WITHOUT NEEDING TO BE PERFORMED OR PROVEN.
HOW MUCH SPACE DO YOU WANT TO GIVE YOURSELF?
The sessions are not different levels of healing. The difference is simply time.
REIKI
RESET
A distance Reiki experience for someone wanting a simple pause, intentional stillness, or an introduction to Reiki.
REIKI + DEEPER STILLNESS
More uninterrupted time to settle into the experience, receive, rest, and notice without rushing.
EXTENDED REIKI EXPERIENCE
A full hour for those who prefer the most spacious Reiki experience offered through Awakened Sways.
More time doesn't mean stronger Reiki or a guaranteed deeper result.
It simply gives the experience more room.
BEFORE YOU BOOK
NEW TO REIKI? THAT'S OKAY.
You don't need previous experience with Reiki or a particular spiritual belief to receive a session.
You don't need to clear your mind, know what you want Reiki to do, or arrive feeling a certain way.
Come as you are...
When you're ready, the booking page will walk you through the session details, preparation, and anything else you need to know before your time.
THE PERSON HOLDING THE SPACE
REIKI CHANGED THE WAY I MEET MYSELF.
I'm Jonathan, Reiki isn't something I only learned so I could offer sessions to other people. It became part of my own daily practice Through consistent self-Reiki, I've spent a lot of time sitting with my own mind, spirit, energy, reactions, stillness, and the things that become noticeable when I stop trying to move past them.
That experience continues to shape how I offer Reiki through Awakened Sways.
I'm not here to tell you what your experience means.
I'm here to hold the Reiki space with intention and allow you room to receive your own experience.
Come as you are, nothing needs to be forced.
Until the next sway.
