Reiki at Lynne’s Zen Room
“Make time for wellness so that you are not forced to make time for illness” -Robin Sharma
Reiki is a form of Japanese energy healing. There is natural life force energy flowing through all of us and when this energy does not flow freely, it can result in us feeling stressed, tired and more prone to illness. When the energy flows naturally we feel balanced and healthy, physically, emotionally and mentally.
Reiki provides relaxation and reduces stress. It also supports the body’s natural ability to heal itself. Universal life force energy is channeled through the practitioner’s hands which balances the energy centers (Chakras) and this results in a better sense of calm and well-being.
The 7 major Chakras are aligned from the base of the spine to the crown of the head. Each chakra is associated with physical organs, glands, emotional states, and psychological qualities.
The Seven Main Chakras:
- Root Chakra (Muladhara)
- Location: Base of the spine
- Basic principle: grounding and survival
- Sacral Chakra (Svadhisthana)
- Location: Lower abdomen
- Basic principle: Creativity, pleasure, emotion, sexuality
- Solar Plexus Chakra (Manipura)
- Location: Upper abdomen
- Basic principle: Confidence, willpower, personal strength
- Heart Chakra (Anahata)

- Basic principle: Love, compassion, connection
- Throat Chakra (Vishuddha)

- Basic principle: Communication, truth, expression
- Third Eye Chakra (Ajna)
- Location: Between the eyebrows
- Basic principle: Intuition, insight, perception
- Crown Chakra (Sahasrara)

What to expect during a session:
You will lie on the treatment bed fully clothed. When comfortable, you are guided into relaxation with gentle breathing and calming music. Healing crystals can be added to the treatment if you wish. There is no pressure or manipulation, just gentle focused energy. You may feel warmth, tingling, or a wave of calm. Some people experience clarity or emotional release, others just enjoy a sense of peace. Hands are placed on various areas of the body. These areas correspond with the energy centers. The process starts at the head and works down to the feet. This process channels healing energy to promote deep relaxation. The treatment is gentle and calming.
