I’ve been seeing Kristi with Inspired Family Health and Reiki Healing for about a year and have had such an incredible experience. I love our sessions and learn so much about myself and the growth I want to see in myself. 

My eight-year-old daughter has had an opportunity to have sessions with Kristi also, and she LOVES them!

I want to tell you more about why reiki is so great for kids, but many of you are probably wondering what exactly reiki is, so first…

What is Reiki?

Reiki is a natural form of medicine that helps clear energy blockages that occur within the body from stress, trauma, or old patterns of thinking that no longer serve us. 

Why do we have to clear the energy blockages? Stress hits us at the mental level and then sinks down into our emotional level. If it’s not resolved, these emotions manifest into physical symptoms and even illness. Reiki helps remove these blockages so the body can heal from the inside out.

Why is Reiki great for kids too?

Being a child or teen can be hard. They have a multitude of stressors as they navigate their world, while simultaneously trying to balance wildly changing emotions and feelings.

As parents, we aren’t always aware of the many issues and pressures that our kids deal with daily.  

They often bottle up worries and fears, keeping quiet. They think we may not understand, or they don’t want us to worry.  

If they don’t have healthy outlet for their stresses, symptoms like anxiety, depression, sleep problems, inability to concentrate, headaches, overuse of sugar/or emotional eating, behavioral problems, low self-esteem, and so many more may start to appear.

The calming practice of Reiki can benefit children by promoting relaxation and confidence.  Learning about and utilizing Reiki at a young age promotes a healthy way of living throughout their lives, helping children make better choices and create balance.

Reiki has been helpful in the treatment of ADD/ADHD, inattentiveness, irritability, emotional issues, hyperactivity and defiance. Since Reiki works on all levels of the body - physical, mental/emotional and spiritual - the body uses the energy to find balance in its own way. 

Reiki is a wonderful non-invasive alternative modality to help them find healing, sense of inner peace, calmness and clarity.

If your child is struggling, I encourage you to try it and see if it works for them. My daughter always seems so much calmer after a session, and she loves the feeling of her energy flowing again after seeing Kristi.
