Your nervous system doesn’t know the difference between a predator and a packed inbox 🌡️ Chronic stress keeps the body in survival mode and over time, that can mean unprocessed emotion with nowhere to go.
Reiki gives it an opportunity to release ✨ It’s a gentle, non-invasive Japanese practice offered through light touch or hands-off placements, designed to support nervous system regulation and help the body settle into its natural capacity for rest, balance, and repair.
🕯️ Shari Gordon, Boston University PhD Candidate, mental health clinician and Reiki practitioner at Down Under, brings a rare blend of psychological insight and energetic attunement to every session. Many people leave feeling deeply relaxed, quieter in the mind, and more like themselves 🙏

I believe it’s completely natural for our relationship with Reiki to ebb and flow, just like any relationship in life 🤍
That's exactly why I created this - I’m now offering a 𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗳-𝗽𝗮𝗰𝗲𝗱 𝗥𝗲𝗶𝗸𝗶 𝗥𝗲𝗳𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗵𝗲𝗿 for Reiki practitioners who feel called to reconnect with their practice, deepen their confidence, expand their impact, and, for those who feel called, find renewed inspiration before beginning to teach.
You’ll receive access to recordings of my live Reiki trainings (Usui/Holy Fire® Levels I, II & III/Mastership) — allowing you to learn at your own pace, on your own schedule, and return to the teachings whenever you feel called, all without a big financial commitment :)
💌 If you’re interested, comment “Reiki Refresher” below or email
[email protected] with the subject “Reiki Refresher” & I’ll send you all the details.
💌 If you’d like to explore on your own, you can also visit www.stayandvibe.org and find “Reiki Refresher” under the “Reiki Training” tab.
🤍I know the path of a Reiki practitioner is one of continual unfolding, and I’m honored to be a small part of your journey as you continue to discover new layers of this beautiful practice.

Maybe your money isn’t stuck because your energy is. Maybe it’s because you’ve been missing half the equation. ⤵
For years I thought I could energy-heal my way into a better relationship with money.
And before you come for me… I love energy work. I’m an energy healer. A Reiki practitioner. I’m deeply intuitive. I know how powerful subtle energy is, and I believe it’s an essential part of the puzzle.
But we live on Earth.
And on Earth, we have to engage with money. We have to make decisions with it. We have to work with it. We have to receive it. We have to get feedback from it.
For years I wanted to bypass all of the practical steps because I thought I could manifest my way out of a difficult relationship with money. And honestly… a lot of people were telling me I could. That sounded much better than actually learning about money.
Except that wasn’t the part I was missing.
The practical application was.
You can’t just theorize about life. You have to live it. You can’t just think about money. You have to work with it. That’s how the energetics become embodied.
I don’t believe the answer is all masculine strategy. And I don’t believe the answer is all feminine flow either. I think they were always meant to dance together. The yin and the yang. The practical and the energetic. Neither is whole on its own.
That’s exactly what trading has taught me. Not just how to make money, but how to actually be in relationship with it. To make decisions. To trust myself. To receive. To notice my patterns.
From my experience, nothing has brought me closer to my relationship with money than learning the stock market. And maybe that’s why I believe we need more sensitive women there. Women who already understand intuition and read energy. Women who are ready to bring both the masculine and feminine into the way they work with money.
If you’ve been curious about learning an income skill you can implement from almost anywhere—one that has the potential to create more freedom without building another business—comment FREEDOM and I’ll send you my Gentle Start Trading Guide. It’s only $27 to get started. 🤍

I used to think the healer was someone outside of me.
The therapist.
The teacher.
The shaman.
The retreat leader.
The coach.
The Reiki practitioner.
The person who knew more, understood more, or had access to something I didn't.
I don't believe that anymore.
And as a somatic and Reiki practitioner myself, this is something I feel strongly about:
**I am not the healer.**
I don't give someone something they're missing.
I help create the conditions and offer practices that can support them in accessing something I believe is already theirs.
Their own capacity to heal.
Their own body wisdom.
Their own intuition.
Their own connection to something greater.
I believe we have far more within us than most of us have been taught to trust.
That's why I love somatics.
That's why I meditate.
That's why I practice Reiki.
That's why I believe in the Divine.
These practices aren't about making us whole.
I believe we're already whole. 🤍
They're ways of helping us remember how to access what's already there.
And maybe that's the biggest shift healing has given me:
I stopped looking for someone to heal me...
and started learning how to participate in my own healing.
If you spend a lot of time in your head...
thinking, processing, figuring things out...
Same. 😂
And I actually love that part of me but it can become exhausting and I don't always arrive at the right answer.
I've been practicing letting my body into the conversation.
Dropping into my body
And asking thr question:
Where do I want to open up?
Then I wait.
I allow my body to move, stretch
That's the practice.
Try it.
Close your eyes. Take a breath.
Ask:
Where do I want to open up?
And see where your body takes you. 💜

If you are a Reiki practitioner, this is the question I wish someone had asked me sooner:
What did your attunement actually initiate you into?
Reiki attunement is not simply learning a relaxation technique.
Within Reiki’s own spiritual framework, it is an initiation — a ceremony meant to open, align, or authorize you to channel “universal life-force energy.”
Symbols may be introduced.
A lineage may be emphasized.
Your hands may be “activated.”
You may be told you can now transmit or direct spiritual energy for healing.
From a Christian worldview, that should make us stop and ask:
At what point does initiation become participation?
And at what point does participation become allegiance?
Many practitioners enter Reiki because they genuinely want to help people.
I understand that.
But sincerity does not determine spiritual source.
If a ceremony invites you to open yourself to an unseen power, receive spiritual authority through a non-Christian system, or become a channel for an unnamed force, then this is no longer simply bodywork.
It is spiritual participation.
Scripture calls us to undivided allegiance.
“You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons too.”
— 1 Corinthians 10:21
Before asking whether Reiki “works,” ask:
Who is the source?
What did I consent to?
What spiritual system did I enter?
Does it submit to Jesus Christ?
Because healing is not the highest authority.
Jesus is.
And the best part? You can simply turn back to Him. Need prayers to renounce Reiki altars and cancel agreements? Write “cancel” and I’ll send your way the link.

Reiki is an ancient Japanese healing modality, channeled by a reiki practitioner to help balance the energy centers in your body. During a session you may feel heat, cold, tingling and subtle energy changes in your body. People often leave feeling more rested, feeling lighter and emotionally balanced. It’s like a massage for your energetic body ✨
You can experience reiki today with one of our many skilled practitioners.
You can also become attuned to reiki yourself through our reiki certification courses.
We hope to see you soon 💫

Last weekend was my first Reiki level 1 that I conducted in English and I was so blessed that Aron was my student. A beautiful, kind soul.
Aron had reiki sessions in his country and he had asked his Reiki practitioner if she could teach him Reiki. Well she was not a teacher, but she said at the time, you will learn Reiki when the time is right.
I guess this time was now and Aron is already a Reiki practitioner.
Aron I wish you lots of practice and all the best in your path of Reiki!
Light and love
Dimitra
Το περασμένο Σαββατοκύριακο έδωσα την πρώτη μου εκπαίδευση Ρέικι στα αγγλικά και είμαι τόσο ευλογημένη που ο Άρον ήταν μαθητής μου. Μια όμορφη, ευγενική ψυχή.
Ο Άρον είχε κάνει συνεδρίες Ρέικι στη χώρα του και είχε ρωτήσει την πρακτικό του αν μπορούσε να του διδάξει Ρέικι. Εκείνη δεν ήταν δασκάλα, αλλά του είχε πει τότε ότι θα μάθει Ρέικι όταν έρθει η κατάλληλη στιγμή.
Φαντάζομαι ότι αυτή η στιγμή ήταν τώρα και ο Άρον είναι πλέον practitioner του Ρέικι.
Άρον, σου εύχομαι πολλή πρακτική και ό,τι καλύτερο στο μονοπάτι σου στο Ρέικι!
Με Φως και αγάπη

Sometimes you hear something twenty times, and then once more, and it lands completely differently.
Someone told me I should be mentoring women on how to be brave enough to be their whole selves in every room they walk into. This time, it landed.
Because I want to bring all of myself: CEO, board chair, marathon runner, poet, Reiki practitioner, mom. All of it, in service to the world.
The more of ourselves we bring, the more resourced we are to move things forward.
I am opening a small number of spaces for private mentorship. If this sparks something in you, the link is in my bio.
✨ Hi, I’m Ana!
For those who are new here, I thought it was time to introduce myself again. 🤍
I’m a qualified reflexologist, Reiki practitioner and holistic therapist based in Dún Laoghaire.
I created Feel Your Feet because I believe in the importance of slowing down, reconnecting with ourselves and giving our body and mind the space they need to reset.
My approach is warm, personal and holistic. Every person is different, and every session is adapted to what you need on that particular day.
I’m registered with the NRRI and I continue to train and learn in different areas of holistic wellbeing, including Maternity Reflexology, Facial Reflexology, Indian Head Massage and Reiki.
Behind Feel Your Feet, there’s also simply me — Ana. Someone who loves connecting with people, learning, travelling, the sea and finding those little moments that help us feel more grounded. 🌿
If you’re new here, welcome! And if you’ve been here for a while, thank you for being part of this little community. 🤍
