Energy & The Body
Your body and your energy field are deeply intertwined. Life experiences such as stress, grief, fear, or spiritual disconnection don’t stay only in the mind, they can settle into the body as tension, fatigue, imbalance or disease. Reiki helps shift this by calming the nervous system and encouraging blocked energy to move again, opening space for healing and renewal. Central to this process are the chakras - seven vital energy centers that influence our physical, emotional, and spiritual well being. Each one supports a different aspect of life and can become either balanced and flowing or blocked and heavy depending on what we’re moving through.
Where Energy Lives in the Body
Lungs & Breath - Deep sorrow, grief, difficulty fully “inhaling life”. Can feel more vulnerable to respiratory issues during mourning or when feeling unsupported.
Throat - Holding back truth, fear of self-expression, unspoken anger or sadness.
Jaw & Teeth Grinding - Repressed anger or frustration, inner conflict, holding back words.
Heart & Chest - Fear of vulnerability, heartbreak, grief, longing for connection or self-love.
Stomach & Digestion - Anxiety, worry, boundary struggles, difficulty “digesting” life changes.
Lower Back & Hips - Feeling unsupported, fear around money or survival, carrying heavy responsibility.
Pelvic & Sacral Area - creativity, sexuality, and your capacity for joy. Energetic blocks often show up as guilt, shame, or a sense of being cut off from desire and self-expression.
Skin - Boundaries, self-image, feeling unsafe or exposed.
Headaches & Migraines - Mental overload, perfectionism, ignoring intuition.
General Fatigue - Emotional depletion, unprocessed grief or anger, spiritual disconnection.
The Seven Chakras
Root Chakra (base of spine) - Connected to safety, stability, and feeling grounded. When balanced you feel secure and calm. When blocked it can show up as fear, anxiety, or feeling unsupported.
Sacral Chakra (lower abdomen) - Linked to creativity, sexuality, and emotional flow. When balanced you feel joyful, expressive, and comfortable with pleasure. When blocked it can feel like guilt, shame, or emotional numbness.
Solar Plexus Chakra (upper abdomen) - Governs personal power and confidence. When balanced you feel motivated and self-assured. When blocked it can show up as low self-esteem, doubt, or control struggles.
Heart Chakra (center chest) - Related to love, compassion, and connection. When balanced you feel loving, forgiving, and connected. When blocked it can show as grief, loneliness, or resentment.
Throat Chakra (throat) - Supports truth and authentic communication. When balanced you speak clearly and with confidence. When blocked it can feel like fear of speaking, self-silencing, or repression.
Third Eye Chakra (between the eyebrows) - Linked to intuition, clarity, and vision. When balanced you feel insightful and guided. When blocked it can bring confusion or self-doubt.
Crown Chakra (top of head) - Represents spiritual connection and purpose. When balanced you feel inspired, connected, and peaceful. When blocked it may feel like disconnection, emptiness, or lack of meaning.
Why This Matters for Healing
Stress Reduction - Reiki signals the body to relax, lowering heart rate, softening muscle tension, and improving breath.
Emotional Release - Clients often feel lighter, cry, or sigh as old energy moves.
Clarity & Empowerment - As chakras balance, people often experience clearer intuition, more authentic self-expression, and greater resilience.
Complementary Support - Reiki is safe alongside medical or psychological care and helps create the calm state your body needs to heal.
