Yesterday I experienced a powerful Level 1 Reiki class in Boston, in which the coincidences and connections led to revelatory moments. If you haven’t read the book “The Celestine Prophecy,” it’s an interesting one to check out, and one of the messages is to pay attention to coincidences… often they have messages for beautiful paths forward. Today’s set of articles discusses one of my favorite aspects of energy work: the interplay of seeing colors with energy. Enjoy!

For many years, people have been asking if I would offer online distance Reiki remotely… and it’s finally here! Learn more about booking a session below.

1. Distance Reiki

This week marks FOUR YEARS since I launched Reiki Colors, and I thank you for being part of this community. Here’s an overview of how this site came to be…

1. Seeing Purple During Meditation

Half a decade ago, I wrote an article on my other site, DrawingsOf.com about seeing purple and yellow with eyes closed when in a meditative or relaxed state. You can see by the comments section that hundreds of people wrote in that they experience the same phenomenon!

2. About Reiki Colors

That previous article, plus my experiences in my Boston Reiki studio, plus coaching from mentors helped me decide to start ReikiColors.com to explore meditation colors in a deeper and more focused way. Learn more about Reiki Colors here…

During my recent Reiki training classes in Boston, two things repeatedly came up which are relevant to everyday life — and certainly to energy work. I hope these articles on those topics are helpful…

In my school librarian job (which I do on the days when I’m not doing Reiki with clients), we just finished reading a highly-recommended picture book called “The Rough Patch” by Brian Lies that is about processing grief and learning to love and connect again. It reminded me of how Reiki helps us safely feel our emotions instead of numbing out, which is absolutely essential to moving through the stages of sadness into reconnection with the self and others. On that note, I hope you enjoy today’s energy work articles, and you have a wonderful start to autumn.

- Lillie from Reiki Colors

1. Processing Grief by Reiki

Grief takes many forms, and the gentle, calming touch of Reiki can be immensely powerful in grief release to help people work through this important emotion. See why here.

2. What to Wear for Reiki

Recently, I’ve had lots of clients come to energy work sessions wearing thick jeans or sweaters, so I’m doubling down on making sure people know that to get the most out of their session, certain outfits are best! See this guide on what to wear for Reiki, and feel free to share with clients, yourself.

To decompress from the hectic start of the my school-teaching year, I recently went with a friend to a 2-hour Zen Meditation sitting, and was fascinated by how different touch-based or energy-based meditation feels for me than solo, non-touch-based meditation. Both are great and powerful… they’re just different. Feel free to leave a comment about your thoughts and experience on this, as I think it’s an important one!
