Reiki and Chakras

Reiki

Reiki is a form of hands-on, non-invasive healing wherein the practitioner acts as a conduit of universal life force of energy. It’s gentle and harmless for both the healer and receiver. As an aspiring level 3 practitioner, I infuse the candles with Reiki before sending them out to help cleanse and purify your space, strengthen the intention of the candle it’s attuned to, and to raise the ~vibes~ of the owner and their space.

Chakras

Chakras are subtle energy bodies which can’t be seen through your physical eyes. While each chakra pertains to an aspect of your development, they work together as a system. The following seven listed here are the basic ones (although there can be a whole lot more): 

  • Root: grounding, stability, security
    • Blocked: scarcity mindset, victim mentality
    • Overactive: Feeling stagnant, self-sabotage
    • Active: feeling safe and secure as all needs are met, feeling content
