You’re here because something inside of you whispered, “I need a shift.” Whether you’re energetically fried, emotionally foggy, or just plain tired of carrying the weight of it all—Reiki and Elemental Alchemy energy healing might be the reset button you didn’t know you needed.
Let’s walk through what really happens during a session—without the fluff. Just soul, science, and a safe space to unravel.
So, What Is Reiki, Really?
Reiki (pronounced ray-key) is a Japanese technique for energy healing that’s all about returning your body to balance. Think: clearing out energetic “gunk,” calming your nervous system, and letting your body do what it’s naturally meant to—heal.
At Empowered Souls, we take things a step further with ROHE Energetic Healing—our own signature system (that’s short for Reiki of Holistic Evolution). This isn’t your standard cookie-cutter Reiki. It’s intuitive, trauma-informed, and rooted in real energetic science—with a little elemental magic woven in.

What Happens in a Reiki Session?
If you’ve never had Reiki before, here’s what you can expect at Empowered Souls:
1. You Arrive Just As You Are
No prep. No performance. No need to explain your entire life story (unless you want to). Come in comfy clothes and bring your whole, messy self—we’ve got you.
2. We Ground and Set Intentions
Whether it’s through breathwork, light conversation, or tuning in intuitively, we’ll drop into a calm, connected space. You’re safe here.
3. The Energy Work Begins
You’ll lay down on the healing bed (fully clothed) and I’ll place my hands gently on or above specific areas of your body. This is where the energetic "realignment" starts. Some people feel warmth, tingles, emotion, or nothing at all. All of it is okay—energy flows where it needs to, even if your brain doesn’t “get” it.
4. Messages, Integration & Aftercare
After the session, we’ll talk through any insights or energetic themes that came up. You’ll leave with grounded next steps and tools to help you integrate what your soul just unpacked.
(And no—you don’t have to “know how to meditate” or be super spiritual for any of this to work.)
How Will You Feel Afterward?
The most common feedback?
“I didn’t even realize how heavy I was until I felt this light.”
Some people feel deeply relaxed, others energized or emotional. You may have vivid dreams, sudden clarity, or need a big nap. It’s your body’s way of recalibrating. Drink lots of water, give yourself space, and don’t be surprised if things start to shift over the next few days.
Who Is Reiki For?
Short answer: everyone! Long answer: Reiki is especially helpful if you’re...
Stressed, anxious, or energetically overloaded
Grieving, healing from trauma, or just plain tired
Spiritually curious but don’t know where to start
Feeling blocked, disconnected, or off-track
Managing chronic pain or burnout
In a life transition or awakening phase
You don’t have to believe in chakras or crystals for this to work. Just show up. The energy knows what to do.
Why Empowered Souls?
Because here, healing is sacred. At Empowered Souls, Reiki isn’t a one-size-fits-all experience. You’re not just another client—you’re a soul in transformation. Whether it’s through the ROHE system, sound healing, elemental tools, or a little witchy intuition, every session is custom-tailored to you.
No fluff. No fakery. Just real energy work that meets you where you’re at—and helps you remember who you are.
Ready to Feel Like Yourself Again?
If your body is tired, your mind is loud, or your soul is calling for something more—Reiki might be the reset you need.
