Earlier this year, I was blessed with the experience sending 15-minutes of daily distance reiki to a client while in her third trimester. She originally asked for Reiki treatments because of multiple fibroids in her uterus, with one of them being pedunculated and the size of a grapefruit, on top of the cervix itself. This caused medical staff to be wary of her delivery as they feared that either the fibroids would block the baby’s journey or that the pedunculated fibroid would rupture during delivery.
The daily mini-treatments allowed me to connect to the changes happening in her body in regards to the fibroids, the baby, and her body’s preparation. I also once invited her into an online reiki circle where a number of students worked on the fibroid issue.
It was a marvel to energetically feel the change over time: The energy going to her fibroids lightened and before labor, completely dissipated. In fact, neither the midwife nor doctor could feel the fibroid leading up to labor and she got her dream of having a vaginal delivery; In the last week, I could feel her body energetically shifting preparing for birth as her cervix began to dilate and as her baby began to drop.
My goal then shifted to the last part of the equation - the delivery itself. How is one’s external and internal environment at this time? How can Reiki assist in bringing more calm and support when needed most? Below are some of her words:
Racqui was instrumental in helping me keep my mind, body and spirit balanced during the second and third trimester of my pregnancy. I felt so much better physically and balanced emotionally after the treatments. In my second semester, there were times I did not receive reiki and would feel off-balance again. I felt the best when I was receiving her powerful energy work daily in my third trimester. I could feel a huge difference in my overall being. It was vital to keeping me feeling good as well as at peace and calm. I combined her amazing energy work with daily yoga, mantra, weekly acupuncture and chiropractic.
Racqui also sent reiki during labor. The energy she felt during that time was also shared with my husband. I remember my husband's energy and words completely shifted out of concern, and became very calm and supportive for whatever needed to happen in the moment. He let go of any fear and became incredibly present and talked in a different manner.
Racqui is a powerful and caring healer and is always such a pleasure to work with. She was instrumental in helping me through my high risk pregnancy and we have a very healthy, calm and happy baby girl who does all the things babies should :)
