Over the last two years, I have assisted and helped over twenty women get pregnant with energy healing and a change in eating habits. How could Reiki possibly help a woman get pregnant you ask? Allow me to illustrate.
Reiki, which means Universal Life force, is known to restore the body’s ability to heal itself, as it works holistically. Thus, restoring the body to a state of balance, harmony, well-being, and vitality. Reiki energy activates the Parasympathetic Nervous System, which is responsible for deep rest and digestion. When this system is activated, stress levels decrease, allowing all organs and systems to work optimally. Alternatively, the Sympathetic Nervous System is responsible for our flight, fight or freeze responses. It is activated by stress and activity. When the body experiences copious amounts of negative stress or is in survival mode, the reproductive system is usually the first bodily system to shut down. Therefore, we can understand that the health of one’s reproductive system is improved when the Parasympathetic Nervous System functions properly.
The Female Reproductive System has several functions such as producing eggs necessary for reproduction and secreting hormones that maintain the reproductive cycle. When the Female Reproductive System functions properly, menstruation and ovulation are regular, which are essential for fertility. When the body is in a state of imbalance due to energy blockages, accumulation of chemicals and stress, the Female Reproductive System may suffer from irregular menstruation or amenorrhea (absence of menstruation), or diseases including fibroids, hormonal imbalance, and PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome).
So how does Reiki assist in correcting these imbalances?
Quite simply put, Reiki activates the body’s ability to heal itself. The energy activates the Parasympathetic Nervous System, hence shifting the body into a deep state of relaxation (i.e decreasing heart rate, respiration and blood pressure). As a result, stress levels are reduced significantly, energy blockages can be released, and organs and systems can begin working optimally to restore balance and harmony within the body. I also mentioned above that when the Parasympathetic Nervous System is activated, the Reproductive System works properly, meaning it can carry on smoothly with its functions such as producing eggs, ovulating, and secreting hormones.
In my experience, women with fertility issues have managed to get pregnant after varying amounts of sessions (on average between 5-10). It is to be noted that Reiki acts as a form of complementary therapy. Though it works on the root causes of diseases, and can facilitate and speed up healing from medical procedures, it should not be considered a cure to diseases as a stand alone treatment, but as part of a holistic set of therapeutic practices. Many of my clients have successfully combined Reiki with Acupuncture. The latter, similarly to Reiki, releases energy blockages in the Meridian System in order to bring the body back to a state of homeostasis (stable physiological system and optimal functioning of the organism).
Reiki extends to regulating menstrual cycles. Many of my clients with menstruation issues have reported their period returning and finding regularity again after just one or a few reiki sessions (not more than 2-3). In turn, it has contributed to boosting their fertility since the Reiki energy engaged the Endocrine System.
The Endocrine System is a network of glands that produces hormones. These hormones control bodily functions such as metabolism, sexual function, reproduction, sleep, mood, appetite, and more. In fact, if we take a look at where endocrine glands are found in the body, one can notice that they are situated around the body’s primary chakras. The sexual glands, known as Gonads, are located by the Sacral Chakra (Swadhistana in Sanskrit). Therefore, providing Reiki energy to the Sacral Chakra helps to activate the sexual glands so that they can produce sufficient amounts of hormones.
In sum, a relaxed, balanced, and harmonious body helps the reproductive system carry out its function efficiently, regulating one’s fertility, reproductive and menstruation cycles. Reiki acts as a tool to release tension, stress, energy blockages and stagnation so that the systems in the body can function optimally. Every reiki experience is unique and everyone reacts differently depending on their levels of sensitivity and receptivity to the energy. It is important to note that circumstantial factors such as the severity of fertility issues will influence results differently. Some women will get pregnant sooner, and others will need more time and consistency, as well as additional therapies. Nevertheless, Reiki is an excellent tool in assisting the reproductive process.
