What is Reiki?

Reiki is an alternative healing therapy. Which focusses on energy exchange. Or how one of my teachers love to explain it: ”An exchange of love”.

To me Reiki is magical. As it is not easy to grasp with your mind. But more like a calling from your soul. Reiki came to me in various moments of my life. And it may come to you now…

Why Reiki during pregnancy?

The benefits of Reiki during pregnancy are numerous! First of all as it reduces stress and anxiety. Secondly, it helps to cope with physical discomforts. Like back pain or constipation. While it is also a magical way of connecting with the soul of your baby.

We mama’s all know we can use some extra loving attention during pregnancy. Pregnancy can feel like a roller-coaster. As not only your body is changing. But also your emotions. Especially with your firstborn, you are making a huge shift. Transforming into a mother. Which is a once in a lifetime shift! And, a spiritual experience of connecting with the divine feminine.

The benefits of Reiki during pregnancy

Reducing stress and anxiety

You might feel (a bit – or a lot!) anxious about your new role as a mama. Which is perfectly normal. Reiki helps you to calm down and release stress and anxiety. As a therapy relaxes your body, where you store the tentions. While, on the other hand, it relaxes your mind. And, most importantly: it helps to trust in the power of your body.

Let go of the mind

Anxiety is all created in your mind. By yourself. You are the one who can release yourself from it. Reiki during pregnancy helps to let go the mind. As a result you connect with your heart and soul.

Your body knows how to give birth naturally

Your body knows how to give birth. Like you, and so many other women been here before. Giving birth is such a natural thing. And your body knows exactly what to do. Because giving birth (as well as being a mama) is imprinted deep within you.

Your heart knows what your baby needs

Another important thing to remember while being pregnant – and beyond! Your heart knows what your baby needs. Your mothers intuition is so special. When you connect with your heart. And let go of the mind. Your heart knows how to take care of your baby. It all goes so natural. So relax mama, you can do this!

Release back pain and constipation

Reiki is also great to release your body from the physical discomforts of pregnancy. Like back pain or constipation. As reiki promotes the self healing power of your body. And therefore helps to release tensions, pains and even constipation. Let it go mama! Litterly 😉

Relaxing the body and mind

Bottom-line: Reiki is all about relaxing both body and mind. In order to recharge your batteries. Pregnancy is such an amazing journey! Your body is making another human. Which of course takes lots of energy. While the transition into being a mother brings a rollercoaster of emotions.

With a Reiki treatment your body gets the relaxing moment it deserves. Be sure to keep on recharging your batteries mama!

Connect with your unborn baby

Connect with your unborn baby during Reiki. Because, when you are relaxing your body and release the mind. That is the moment you connect with your soul.

While being pregnant, this is also the moment to connect with your baby’s soul. Maybe your baby has a message for you. Or this is a moment to reassure everything is going great. Your baby is happy and can’t wait to be in your arms. Anything your little one wants you to know can surface. While you are both in a relaxing state of mind.

A Reiki treatment doesn’t only benefit mama. But also relaxes your baby. As your little sprout feels everything you feel. So, be extra sweet to yourself!

Give Reiki to your womb

Are you a Reiki partitioner?

Fantastic! As giving Reiki to your womb is a beautiful experience for both you and your baby. It helps you to connect with your baby before birth. It is such a magical experience! Savour every second of it. Soon your little one will be in your arms!

Not (yet) a Reiki partitioner?

Even if you aren’t officially initiated with the energy of Reiki. You can still transmit loving energy to your baby.

Just by placing your hands on your belly. While connecting with your heart. Imagine a beautiful golden light coming from your hands into your womb. This golden light is full of your love and energy. Sending the most profound energy to your baby.

Summary: The benefits of Reiki during pregnancy

Reiki can benefit your pregnancy in many ways.

First of all by relaxing both your body and mind. While you are releasing tensions in your body. And let go of the thinking mind. That is when you connect to your biggest powers: your heart and soul.

There is no need for stress and anxiety. As your body knows how to give birth. And your heart knows how to take care of your newborn baby. With Reiki you can feel this truth within you. And feel more at ease about the big transition you are in. Namely: becoming a mama!

Reiki also helps with physical uncomfort. Like back pain or constapation. As a treatment helps you to let go of the tensions you hold in your body. While it also reduces your stress-levels. Which is of major importance to let your hormones do their job.

Besides getting treatments. Giving Reiki or “loving energy” to your womb will benefit your pregnancy and the connection with your baby.

Enjoy the magic mama!
