relax into deeper resonance with all that is

Reiki & Sound Healing

Reiki

What is Reiki?

Grounded in our own deep relaxation and conscious connection to Rei (spirit, mystery) and Ki (life force energy), we use gentle touch and loving presence to support & strengthen your body’s innate healing and rebalancing capacities.

To receive a Reiki treatment, one is typically laying or sitting down in a position that is as comfortable as possible. As the recipient, you do not need to do anything, think about anything, focus on anything, move your body in any way, be aware of the time, or even try to stay awake.

We offer Reiki as one of our main modalities because we deeply believe that regular practice of the art of non-doing and the art of receiving are crucial to physical, spiritual & relational health — and something which the modern world is deeply lacking.

Everyone can benefit from a Reiki treatment, regardless of your beliefs about spirituality or energy. When we give our mind and body the gift of time & space to do nothing, time to simply receive care & attention — clarity, healing & wholeness will naturally begin to emerge.

Sound Healing

What is sound healing (or “sound therapy”, or “sound bathing”)?

Just like Reiki, receiving a sound healing typically involves laying down, supporting the body to get as comfortable and relaxed as possible, and then “doing nothing” — just being, and allowing the sounds & vibrations to be received. As such, Reiki and Sound Healing combine together wonderfully to create experiences of deep relaxation for body, mind, heart & spirit.

Our collection of sound healing instruments have origins from all over the world, together representing a diverse range of geographical & temporal moments in human history. Music & musical instruments are as old as humanity itself — it is a universal language that transcends the limitations of human languages.

The languages of sound, frequency & vibration is one we as humans also share with the rest of the more-than-human world. It is not uncommon for people who have felt a lifelong inability to access “spiritual” or “mystical” experiences, to begin having such experiences for the first time during a sound bath. When we arrive at a state of deep relaxation, and deep receptivity, we may be able to understand the languages spoken by the instruments in a whole new way.

As [multi]cultural ambassadors and bridge-builders, sound healing is one of our core modalities — because of its power to bring people together into a shared experience of receptivity, regardless of what languages we normally speak and what higher powers we normally worship.

What happens in a session?

A standard session for 1 or 2 persons lasts up to 90 minutes and has this structure:

Intake conversation
We start with a check-in and conversation with you, about what brings you here and any healings intentions you are carrying. We take our time to listen to you. We also explain the practicalities of what to expect during a Reiki and Sound treatment, and clarify any boundaries or contraindications.

Arrival practice
We do a short practice together to support deepening into your healing intention and marking a transition between “ordinary consciousness” and the realms of wonder & mystery. Examples of such practices are:
- Guided meditation
- Tarot and oracle cards
- Tea or cacao ceremony
- Chanting or vocal toning
- Or something else you want to suggest

Reiki + Sound treatment
”How much” of the treatment time will be dedicated to Reiki vs. Sound Healing, who will perform what, which instruments will be used, etc — are based on mutual intuition and agreement about what would be most supportive. Any hands-on work or use of instruments on your body will be agreed on before the start of treatment.

Post-treatment debrief
In the final 15 minutes of our time together, you are welcome to give feedback and share anything about your experience. We may also share anything that came up for us on the practitioner side — and send you off with recommended resources or practices that may support integration.

Custom sessions and private small groups — Reiki & Sound can be combined with other practices for a total of 2-3+ hours.
