10 ways to bring Reiki into your day - even if you haven't tuned in for 10 years

"Oh yes, I have my reiki level 1...but I haven't done it in years."
"I received my Reiki level 2...but I never get around to using it these days." or "I don't think I can anymore." even "I don't have anyone to practice on."
Does this sound like you? Do you forget about reiki or keep waiting for that perfect moment to give someone a session?
Let's look at 10 seamless ways to bring energy healing back into your daily life (the key word here is seamless) and breathe new life into your practice!
  1. Meal times - yep, a good easy opportunity 3 or more times a day. While prepping and cooking it is super duper easy to channel reiki into your food. Food "made with love" really nourishes our bodies, our souls, and our tastebuds. Didn't make it? Spend a moment sending reiki to your meal and give a few words of gratitude. Shy? Place your hands just under the rim on either side of your plate, or hold your bowl, pause a moment with a smile and let the healing energy flow in. To anyone not "in the know" you just look like you are enjoying the scent and sight of your dish!
  2. Your water bottle (& cuppa tea) - water particularly holds energy vibration extremely well, and since you are holding your beverage already, infuse it with reiki, love, healing thoughts, even whisper positive words and hold it to your heart - instant medicine!
  3. Christmas cards, letters, notes, to-do lists, and inscriptions - letting reiki flow out your hand, through your pen and right into the ink of the best wishes, mundane tasks, and reminders is a wonderful way to gift healing energy to the reader, your future self or the situation you are writing about. Filling out an application? Reiki! Get well card? Reiki! Wall calendar scheduling? Reiki! Sneaky huh?
  4. Painting your home - okay, this one might not be an every day opportunity, but it is one of my favorites. If you have reiki symbols that you use, paint them onto the wall before you apply the first coat! If you don't have symbols, just let it flow into the paint as you stir and channel through your brush as you paint. Excellent for your bedroom, healing space, office, heck even the bathroom!
  5. Ritual Bath - speaking of bathrooms, a good soak in a reiki infused tub full of water is superb self care. Take things a step further by adding a candle for transmutation and healing light, essential oils, flower petals or water safe crystals for further physical and emotional healing.
  6. Knitting, sewing, crafting of any kind - letting reiki flow into your garments and projects is a beautiful and lasting way to bring healing energy into the world. Imagine when feeling ill or blue you could wrap in a shawl with reiki crocheted into every stitch? Or an art piece that emanates healing to all viewers open to receiving?  I say yes to that!
  7. Gardening and houseplants - oh what a beautiful and reciprocal tending it is to channel reiki into the soil, water and leaves of our plant friends. A special exchange indeed.
  8. Moon Time/Menstruating - sorry fellas, this one is for the ladies. Aside from the obvious self-reiki for cramps or compications, I'm talking about letting reiki flow with your flow so-to-speak. Whether you use disposable methods, wash a cup in the sink, or best yet - soak & pour your blood onto the earth, you can include reiki with your blood heading to landfills, incinerators, waterways and the pacha momma. There is a large movement toward global healing by ritually offering one's blood spilled in peace to remedy all the blood spilled in violence. Not such a weird idea after all eh?
  9. Falling asleep - a hand placed at the back of your neck and another on your abdomen as you drift off is simply too easy to make excuses for. Just remember to set an intention for reiki to "shut off" after a certain period of time. My usual is half an hour. I simply thank reiki for flowing for half an hour more after I fall asleep then let it flow. Tip: if your bedtime companion is open to receiving, touch your foot to them, rest a hand on their chest, or straight up snuggle up!
  10. Cleaning House - I'm serious. I call this "House Shrining" it includes mindfully tidying-up, energy work, conscious purging and placement of items with a general thought to bring order and beauty as if my whole house was a shrine. A shrine that gets very lived in fast haha! but a shrine none-the-less. Washing dishes? Reiki! Sweeping? Reiki! Making beds? Yup more reiki! Cleaning the toilet? There too!
See how seamless it can be to bring energy healing into your day-to-day life? For those of you who say to me, "It's been too long" since you last tuned in, I'll tell you something; yes a refresh attunement may re-ignite your connection, but reiki isn't something you can forget, and it isn't something that fades or wears off. You're just out of practice. That's all. Aristotle said, “We are what we repeatedly do.” By living a life infused with reiki we can be a healing force on this planet.
Do you have daily reiki opportunity number 11? Excellent! I LOVE new and interesting ways to use energy healing. Share it with us below!

With reiki footsteps,
Juliette
