Shamanic & Reiki Energy Healing Sessions: What to Expect

Reiki Energy Healing with Certified Usui Holy Fire III Reiki Master Teacher + Shamanic Practitioner Hannah Taylor

During your session, I will be guided by Spirit to areas of your physical, emotional and energetic body in need of healing. As you receive Reiki, you may feel heat, coolness, vibration, the emergence of emotions (sometimes even surprising ones!), the need to sneeze or cough, etc. As you lay with your eyes closed, you may even experience visions of colors or images from Spirit as well. I will be sure to discuss with you any messages I receive during our session, should you be open to receiving messages from Spirit.

As a shamanic practitioner, my reiki healing methods have evolved, rebuilt with a foundation in shamanism. Healing sessions often include drumming, rattles, crystals and guidance from compassionate spirits in dimensions beyond.

Prior to Your Appointment

Prepare for your reiki healing session by choosing comfortable clothing and relaxing your mind. You will be asked to remove your shoes prior to the session, whether in-person or via distance.

What is Reiki?

Reiki is a natural, safe, holistic Japanese technique for relaxation, stress reduction and healing that complements your current medical routines. Reiki work refers to “a laying on of hands,” where healing Universal energy is channeled through the practitioner into the client, either through light touch, or while the palms are above the client, within the energy field. Reiki will work wherever it is needed, delivering holistic healing energy into the physical body, the emotional realm, and on the spiritual level.

In Japanese, Reiki is defined as:

Rei, meaning, “God’s Wisdom or the Higher Power,” and Ki, meaning, “life force energy.” When we read those words together, Reiki may simply be read as spiritually-guided life force energy.

What is Shamanism?

Shamanism is a nature-based spiritual, guidance and healing practice which has been used by our ancestors for over 44,000 years. While the term “shaman” was originally more culture specific, it has morphed into its more general use today.

The Core Aspects of Shamanism

While traditions vary from culture to culture, there are a few core aspects to shamanism connecting all.

  1. Unity. Humans are One with all of nature and equal, neither inferior nor superior, to all that we are One with.
  2. Means to change consciousness at will (e.g. drum).
  3. Journey to other worlds (non-ordinary reality). Journeying may be described as a form of active meditation.
  4. Direct interaction with compassionate spirits, such as spirit animals or ancestors, or other nature and elemental spirits, like the trees, or the element of water, for help and healing.

As a shamanic practitioner, I am a hollow bone, a clear conduit through which our Divine Universe works and flows. I am one Light of many, carrying forth the ancient tradition of shamanism today. My practice is interwoven into every aspect of my life. Every waking moment is shared in communion with Spirit, whether I am working directly within my spiritual practice, or experiencing the everyday. Truly, the practice allows me to integrate transcendence with the mundane.

My Healing Practice + Training

After 30+ years of intense physical health issues, including full spinal fusion in 1997, from my neck to my lower back, with two long, stainless steel rods, I had been suffering exquisite daily pain and intermittent bouts of paralysis, each for days at a time. Visits to orthopedic surgeons proved unhelpful, being told by not one, but two, that there was nothing anyone could do for me, unless I was completely and consistently paralyzed — they said that if further surgery didn’t kill me, it would fully paralyze me for sure.

Terrified, I sat on a street curb outside of work one day, weeping in pain. Finally, I cried out to the Divine universe, asking, “What do I do?!” A reply came swiftly and without question — “Reiki,” I heard in my right ear. Unsure as to what that meant, but determined to take this step given me by my Guides, I ascended the stairs to my third floor office and gave a quick search.

I learned that Reiki was a form of energy healing and that classes were being offered nearby, in just a few weeks. I signed up immediately, full of hope and unaware of how my life was about to completely and forever change… this time, for the better. As soon as I earned my Reiki I + II certifications, I noticed a change. I was able to reduce my pain levels through Reiki and meditation and the bouts of paralysis seems to disappear entirely! After earning my Reiki Master, pain reduction moved to complete relief. It’s been over five years now since I have needed any aid, not even ibuprofen for a headache!

A few months after my Reiki I + II certifications, I began classes in shamanic healing. While Reiki helped me greatly with my physical pain, I knew I had a lot of healing to do emotionally, as I suffered clinically-diagnosed complex PTSD since childhood to adulthood. I embarked on two-and-a-half years of intensive shamanic training and apprenticeship and my now life practice, delving deep into my shadow, releasing, integrating and earning wisdom passed down through millennia. Shamanism has been absolutely life-changing and has become interwoven into every aspect of my life. I credit who I am as a human today to my shamanic apprenticeship and thank our Beloved Divine every day for my teacher, Lisa (sunmoonmeet.com).

Years ago, I worried I would not even make it to 40… and I wasn’t even sure I wanted to, living in so much physical and emotional pain. Today, I am ever grateful for my life and excited to walk my path of my highest and greatest good, holding and sharing the Light of our Divine universe with all who walk with me. Thank you, Beloved Divine, for all of the challenges that led me to this path. Thank you for the opportunity to grow and learn and truly find my joy. Aho!

X-ray taken in 2015 during my visits to new surgeons, nearly 20 years after I had my surgery. In 1997, these rods were perfectly straight. Seems I've bent the stainless steel through years of using my body and continuation of aggressive scoliosis. Not only was the spine curving, but twisting, from my neck through my hips.

While I’ve been spiritually-inclined and seeking divine guidance from a very young age, it took quite a bit of time to break free from some of the traditional religion-oriented programming that’s been in place for generations. While it’s true that the more I learn, the more I realize I do not know, thus far I’ve gleaned that sometimes the hardest part of your spiritual journey is taking those very first steps. Not knowing where even to begin.

Energy and spiritual connection life coaching sessions help you uncover the tools you need – tools you already have within, hidden in the shadows – to connect with your higher self and our beloved Divine universe. Through shamanic journeying, meditation, discussion, learning, chakra energy work and healing, we will start you on the path to discovering your purpose, listening to your intuition and reveling in the gift of connectedness with our Divine universe.

Spiritual growth guidance sessions are tailored to each seeker – each path is as unique as the Being forging it. In our first session, we will discover together what it is you are seeking currently on your path, and from there, we will craft biweekly or monthly lessons tailored to your unique journey. I so look forward to sharing time with you. Aho!
