What is somatic reiki?
Somatic reiki is a combination of reiki, aura clearing, parts therapy and somatic therapy. When clients are presenting with an issue whether they know the source or are unconscious of it, the root cause of the issue may very well be something more internal being projected outwardly. This can also be something from childhood that has followed the client for years as a chronic symptom whether physical, psychological or emotional or something more recent.
When a child is young and doesn't have the vocabulary and brain development to process certain experiences or express emotions this can lead to emotions, shock and trauma being stuck in the body and further develop into psychosomatic symptoms that follow us into adulthood.
There may also be an energetic attachment that needs clearing that has been projected onto and/or accepted by the client based on mutual reception. This can be in the form of taking on another persons pain to lessen their suffering or even the shame and guilt that was projected onto us by a friend, authority figure or even something weve watched and heard in a song.
During somatic reiki a client is asked to identify an issue or feeling that is troubling them, it can even be physical pain in the body.The client is then guided to relax as they then proceed to deeply feel and connect with the sensations and emotions arising within them and throughout the body and give them the space for expression where while in the body they may never have had such attention. In this way, you are able to communicate with all the parts of yourself to find a solution. Consider a time when you wanted to do something and yet a part of you wanted to do something else. We are all made up of parts though we are one being. The parts at odds are presenting a conflict that calls for a resolution so that a goal can be achieved.
The guided dialogue helps you engage the receptive/creative part of your mind in addition to your body's intelligence in a way that helps you find answers and see solutions which were previously buried under all of your emotion and physical pain in a form of muscle memory. With the body being the physical manifestation of the subconscious mind.
During this process I will be using reiki to raise the client's vibration and assist the shifting of energy in being properly released and/or integrated whatever is necessary for the client's highest good. This is a deep and extremely powerful process.
