Facilitating Death and Dying with Reiki

www.thereikimuse.com Reiki helps people and animals transition from their bodies with grace and ease. A healer’s work isn’t always about helping someone get better in the physical sense. Sometimes, a healer facilitates the death process.Returning to non-physical is the ultimate healing and part of the soul’s natural progression.

Reiki never interferes with an individual’s life or death choices. It just won’t work to wish someone dead while sending Reiki. Reiki never causes harm. You can send Reiki with the intention to support the dying process. And by no means does it mean you’ve failed when you are Reikiing someone with the intention that they recover and they die anyway.

As always, it is important to release attachment to outcomes when giving Reiki.  Reiki always follows God’s will which operates beyond our human egos. Reiki supports divine timing in when someone leaves their physical body.

There have been times I thought a person would die within minutes of sending Reiki and they have lived for months. This gives

www.thereikimuse.comthem time to spend with friends and family. Other times, they pass quickly. When the most benevolent outcome is death of the physical body. Reiki helps those near the end of their life transition with less pain and more inner peace.

It will help create an environment of holiness, even in a hospital.

It will facilitate loved ones being there for final conversations that bring completion and clarity. Reiki helps decrease the side effects of medication and decreases discomfort from medical procedures.

Numerous times I have been asked by concerned family members to Reiki terminally ill patients in person and from a distance. So far only my dog, Lucy, actually left her body while receiving hands-on Reiki from myself, my daughter and a friend. I have yet to experience giving Reiki hands on when a person while they journey into non-physical. I’m sure it would be magical and bittersweet.

And whether you are attuned to Reiki or not, you can provide comfort with your loving presence and healing touch. I didn’t have Reiki when my dad was sick with cancer when I was a teen.  I did reflexology on his feet knowing that my healing touch was giving him comfort.

Every time I send Reiki to someone near the end of their life I see a lot of white light and sense the presence of their guardian IMG_3846angels, guides and loved ones from the other side. I work with Archangel Azrael to help the dying feel comfort, love and peace as their time draws near.

Often, there is fear of letting go. Reiki helps with releasing attachment to this lifetime and open to spirit. Reiki helps the dying relax into the unknown surrounded by loving and caring energy.

I feel great happiness when the family member who requested the Reiki is with their loved one at the time of passing. This is such a profoundly sacred moment which usually leaves a lasting impact.

Often the dying choose to leave without the presence of their family members.  This happens because the loved ones have a hard time letting go.  So it’s just easier for everyone that way.

Archangel Azrael also offers comfort to those who have just lost a loved one as well. Just ask for his support.

If you are attuned to Reiki, give it freely to those you know and love who are in their final stages of life to help them pass with comfort, grace and dignity. It will help you and them let go and be more fully present to the beauty of transition into non-physical.

I look forward to Reiki being a standard practice in end of life care. I am always here to offer my energetic support for you and your loved ones.

In loving Reiki light!


How to Surrender Personal Will to Divine Will with Reiki

I always affirm ‘I’m a clear and open channel and my ego steps aside’ before giving Reiki healing.


For example, I had a dream recently that I’ve been pondering.  I dreamt on was on the LA free way.  I knew in my heart that Divine will wanted me to move to Los Angelus. This is not an area I’m drawn to.  To be clear, I would never want to move there. Yet, I knew in my dream that I would follow my soul level guidance and to move to LA, even though it’s not what my logical self would choose.




You can trust that your soul-level, divine self holds a broader perspective than your ego self. Sometimes, the guidance makes sense to your mind and other times it doesn’t. You can trust the universe to keep you on the best path for you, especially when you stay connected with your own inner stream of well being.

The Healing Benefits of Going Barefoot With Reiki.





The Earth gives us negative charged electrons which neutralize free radicals in our body.  The Earth energy acts like an antioxidant. Being in direct contact with the Earth stimulates the body’s self-repair systems, just like Reflexology and Reiki do. The sun sends charged particles to the Earth and then the Earth shares this beneficial energy with us.


Some of the healing benefits of Earthing are:

  • improved circulation
  • better sleep
  • reduced anxiety
  • increased energy and metabolism
  • feeling more centered and present (grounded)
  • decreased inflammation
  • balanced hormones
  • calms the nervous system
  • improved immunity




Here’s a simple meditation to use Reiki to connect with that loving, nourishing and healing Earth energy. You can try this if the weather is not conducive to walking barefoot or you live in the city.  You can do this outside, close to the ground, if you can.  It will also work indoors.

  • Breathe deeply.
  • Send Reiki to the center of the Earth.


Happy Earthing!



Using Reiki To Be Kind and Increase Your Vibration

The Original Reiki Ideals by Mikao Usui

The secret art of inviting happinessThe Reiki Muse

The miraculous medicine of all diseases

Just for today, do not be angry

Do not worry and be filled with gratitude

Devote yourself to your work and BE KIND to people

Every morning and evening, join your hands in prayer,

Pray these words to your heart,

And chant these words with your mouth.

I love that the Reiki ideals outright say to be kind.  I would like to add the reminder to be kind to all living beings, not just to people.

Why does Reiki remind us to be kind?  Kindness raises your vibration and uplifts the world around you.  Being kind in thought, word and deed is a powerful choice.  You can ask Reiki for help being kind.

What does being kind mean?  Being compassionate, big-hearted, gentle, respectful, benevolent, nice, caring and loving.  Being kind requires you to connect with the living essence of another living being.  How do we connect with another being you may ask?  It’s simple.  Through your heart.  Reiki energy opens our hearts and softens our minds.

Reiki can help you give up the need to be right.  Wanting to be right or judge causes us to disconnect from the loving part of ourselves.  It’s our ego’s way of saying, “I’m better than you.”

When you connect with your heart space, you’ll find that other people’s way of being or doing is their unique perspective which is no better than our own.  Is it really worth losing love by being right?  Yes, this means even when you are driving.

And let’s not forget about yourself.  Examine your own thinking.  Are you being kind to yourself in your thoughts? Notice if you are beating yourself up,  judging yourself or berating yourself.  If you discover you’re thinking an unkind thought about yourself, pause and take a deep breath.  Turn on your Reiki and allow your mind to soften and join up with your loving heart energy.

By being loving and kind to yourself, you’ll find it much easier to treat others with gentle concern.  Being kind to yourself is the beginning of adding light to the world around you.  Sometimes being kind to yourself or others may mean setting boundaries and saying ‘no’.  The Reiki will guide you in this.

If you are saying yes, when you really don’t want to do something, you’re only hurting yourself.  Either learn to say no, or ask the Reiki to help you line up your energy with what you’ve agreed to do.

How can you use Reiki to help you be kind to yourself and others?  You can Reiki yourself and focus on the word kindness. Just allow the Reiki to flow and notice how you feel.  If you are attuned to the distance symbol, you can send Reiki ahead of you on your path for the day while infusing the quality of kindness. You could charge a quartz crystal and place an affirmation under it such as, “I am kind to all living beings, especially myself”.

Just by focusing on kindness, you’ll notice it more. You’ll see your gentle and loving thoughts about yourself being reflected back to you from the world around you. With all that positive caring reinforcement, you’ll find it easier and easier to be kind.

If you come across someone who is just being rude, you’ll know they aren’t feeling those gentle and loving thoughts right now. It’s your choice, what will you mirror back to them? I suggest turning on your Reiki and filling yourself up with it and radiate it out.

Reiki connects us with the power of now and the feeling of ‘all is well’. When we truly remember all is well, kindness comes naturally.

In Loving Reiki Light,

How to Use Reiki as A Sunscreen and Get More Vitamin D

The Reiki Muse

Reiki can be used to boost your sun protection and vitamin D absorption.  Turn the sun into your friend when spending time outdoors with Reiki.

Spending time in the sun without sunscreen is healthy, at least for brief periods of time.  That’s how our bodies produce vitamin D.  A good time to spend outdoors without using sunblock is before 10 am or late in the day when the suns UV rays are not so strong.

Popular belief holds that the sun’s radiation is harmful.  We are encouraged to wear sun block which almost completely turns off our body’s ability to produce vitamin D.  Vitamin D is important for calcium absorption and melatonin production. A lack of vitamin D has been linked to depression, certain cancers, diabetes and osteoporosis.

Reiki can be used as a form of sun screen.  If you hold the personal belief or experience of the sun’s rays being harmful, you may want to start by working with the Reiki to clear your beliefs.

Once you feel more aligned with spending time in the sun with only Reiki sunscreen, give it a try. Start for short periods of a few minutes.

How to use Reiki as a sunscreen:

Turn on your Reiki and imagine that your aura boundary is charged with golden light. Use the mental/emotional symbol and the power symbol along with the Karuna Reiki ® symbols, if you are attuned to them.

Affirm that your body absorbs only the sun’s healthy energy.  Know that you are recharging with uplifting, warm and nourishing sunlight. Feel your body getting enough healthy UV rays to support your body in producing the vitamin D it needs for your overall wellness.

Affirm and trust that your auric field deflects the harmful UV rays. Imagine your the outer layer of your aura is a UV filter. You can set this filter to allow the amount of sunlight that serves you in. Feel yourself glowing from the inside out.

While you’re enjoying your time in the sun, remember to soak up the healing and revitalizing Earth energy too. I think the Earth’s healing energy feels similar to Reiki.  Take off your shoes and soak it up into your feet.

If you are spending all day in the sun follow your own guidance and wisdom about using sunscreen. Getting sun burned is no fun either. You may need to build upon how much time you can safely soak up those sun’s rays without sunscreen. Turning on your Reiki sun shield will promote your sun protection.
