In This Episode, We Discuss:
Julie’s Path to Reiki – How she discovered this powerful healing modality and its transformative impact on her life and practice.
What Reiki Is – Understanding Reiki as a gentle yet profound form of energy healing that can release tension, ease physical discomfort, and provide mental clarity.
What to Expect in a Reiki Session – Julie explains what happens during an in-person and virtual session and the sensations clients may experience.
Reiki and Fertility – How Reiki can support those preparing for conception by creating an environment of relaxation and emotional readiness.
Connecting to Spirit Babies – Julie shares insights on helping patients connect with their spirit babies and welcome them into their lives.
Common Conditions Reiki Treats – From easing anxiety and stress to reducing physical pain and aiding mental wellness.
