Bo-tanics
A guide to how Reiki runs through every layer of your healing protocol and what it does in each one.
Reiki is not a separate session that sits alongside your other treatments. It is the current that runs through all of them. Universal life force energy is what carries your herbal medicine deeper, activates your crystals, amplifies your flower essences and gives your aromatherapy work an energetic dimension that goes beyond the physical. Reiki is the connective tissue of the 7Layers Protocol.
Below you will find a description of how Reiki is used specifically within each of the seven layers. Some sessions focus Reiki at a single layer. Others weave it through the whole. Either way, the energy always knows where to go.
Each of the seven protocol layers has its own Reiki intention, hand positions and healing quality. What follows is a description of how the energy works within each layer, and what you might expect to feel when Reiki is applied in that specific context.
A few things that may help you feel prepared and at ease
You lie fully clothed on a treatment table. My hands rest lightly on or hover just above each position. You do not need to do or say anything. Simply breathe and allow.
Warmth, tingling, pulsing, emotional release, vivid inner imagery, or simply deep rest. All responses are welcome. Nothing is wrong.
When Reiki is combined with crystals, oils or essences in a session, the modality is applied first and the Reiki follows, carrying the other medicine deeper into your energy field.
Drink plenty of water. Avoid alcohol. Rest if you can. You may feel unusually tired or unusually clear. Both are signs of integration. Trust what arises over the following 24 to 48 hours.
Layer 6 is a full stand-alone Reiki session of 45 to 60 minutes, working through all seven hand positions. This is the deepest energy work in the protocol and where the healing across all other layers is gathered and integrated.
Reiki is woven through every session in your protocol. The dedicated Layer 6 session can be given as often as monthly, with lighter Reiki integration in every other session throughout the programme.
