10 Reasons to learn Reiki

What is Reiki?

Reiki is incredibly powerful; yet gentle. There are so many ways it can support our own well-being and also that of our loved ones, friends and communities.

I first explored this holistic energy healing therapy after becoming a Mummy at the age of 43 and it has continued to develop since. It is not only part of MY every day self-care healing regime, but it is also used to support my family and home and now the wider Community of Milton Keynes.

I feel really passionate about supporting others with Healing, but also giving people the tools and gift to be able to support and heal themselves and their communities too by offering Reiki Healing Training courses.

This blog outlines my top 10 reasons why everyone should learn Reiki (even just to at least to the First Degree level) and is written by me, Victoria Palmer. Founder of Deeper Awareness and Certified Reiki Master Practitioner & Teacher. I am based in Milton Keynes.

Reiki can potentially transform your life, as it stimulates personal and spiritual growth, encourages healthy changes in lifestyle, increases inspiration and intuition and brings about realisations of our deeper, spiritual nature, which can be powerful and life-changing.

Top 10 reasons to learn Reiki Healing


1️⃣Self Healing:

We can use Reiki to heal ourselves; wherever we are in the world. As Reiki is so simple yet so powerful; wherever you feel pain or discomfort; you can simply place your hands on that area and let the Healing energy flow as it needs to. Do this for as long as you feel you need to…it might be a few minutes or longer, just trust your intuition.

Reiki helps bring the body back into its natural harmony and balance; allowing you to connect to your body and inner guidance.

This is so empowering for ourselves and our families.

2️⃣More balanced & grounded:

Reiki helps us be more connected to our physical being and therefore more aware of ourselves. This supports us feeling more grounded and balanced mentally, emotionally, physically and spiritually too. This can help if we are feeling as though we are ‘living’ in our thoughts and fears and not in present moment.

This can then really help with our Mental Health and wellbeing plus any fears, worries, stress and anxieties we might be feeling.



3️⃣Reiki Principles:

The beautiful Reiki Principles or Precepts, are suggested as a daily practice to live our lives by; one day at a time. They can really help us to be more present. less reactive, calmer and kinder and were created by Dr Mikao Usui.

They are as follows:

  • Just for today, I will not worry

  • Just for today, I will not be angry

  • Just for today, I will be grateful

  • Just for today, I will do my work honestly

  • Just for today, I will be kind to every living thing


Showing up for our lives and days can be overwhelming and these daily principles are a wonderful reminder.


4️⃣Support with spiritual journey, guidance and purpose:

“We are spiritual beings having a human experience.”

Reiki re-connects you to your higher self; which is something we can often forget or not focus on when we are living on this physical world and distracted. By using Reiki on ourselves and practicing the Principles; we become more intuitive and therefore more empowered.


5️⃣Creating a better world:

This is certainly something we could all be more mindful and supportive of. Our world and many in it are truly struggling right now. Struggling globally and also locally in our communities and our own homes.

Practising and and using Reiki allows us to be more compassionate. This in turn creates more of a space for gratitude and appreciation for life, self and others and ultimately our really precious planet!



6️⃣Giving back:

Learning this beautiful gift allows us to not only help ourselves, but also others and the planet. As a Reiki Master Teacher I often offer out a FREE Distance Reiki Healing session out to the local and international community, but also out to our planet. This gives positive vibes out and therefore around the world…who wouldn’t want that?!



7️⃣Simple and easy to learn:

Absolutely anyone can learn and be attuned to Reiki. It is non-denominational too. It’s natural, safe, holistic and so easy. However, as human-beings we can complicate things. Doubting our gifts and our abilities. Reiki just asks that you simply surrender and trust and allow it to help and heal for our Highest Good. It helps us to get out of our own way and connect with the energy and the power. However, remembering that it doesn’t come FROM us, but THROUGH us as conduits.


8️⃣Help family, friends & pets:

We can feel so powerless as human beings to protect and heal our families and loved ones. Not knowing what to do it how to help.

This is where the gift of Reiki starts to spread into our homes and out into our local communities. It is wonderful thing to be able to help heal our families, friends, pets and communities through the support of Reiki.

It is so simple and easy. When offering it, they just need to be open to it and the support (never force your will on someone). During the training you will learn about the hand positions and how to give a Reiki Healing.

Alternative/Holistic Therapies are such a wonderful and powerful way to support loved ones and show up for your family.


9️⃣Be more loving:

“Energy flows where our attention goes.”

We could always do with more love, kindness and compassion.

Self-love and our own self-worth, as well as true compassion and love for all living things, really helps to create a positive vibration and energy in our homes, communities and ultimately around the world

Our world certainly needs more love at this time. I think we are all struggling a little bit and some are struggling majorly with the current situation.

Reiki gives you the opportunity to, just simply with an act of gentle touch, let someone know they are not alone and help is here. This help is also there for ourselves…we are not alone and helpless.



🔟Develop a stronger intuition & trust for self:

Being in a place where we can trust our gut instincts and connect with the Universe is a really empowering place to be. We can watch for signs, hear signals and trust what the Universe has planned for us.

I believe we are all incarnated in this lifetime for a purpose and a journey. We are here for the greater good and the bigger picture. However, we also, of course, can make our own choices and decisions.

Connecting with and working with Reiki increases our vibration. It raises our awareness and allows us to make more informed and considered choices.

Where I feel fear; it allows me to surrender. Where I feel worry; it allows me to trust. Where I feel pain; it supports my healing process and where I feel despair; it helps me to be more grateful.

It then gives me the tools to help others to the same.
