This is Nature Angel

Hey Lovelies,

Another amazing Reiki Study....

The aim of this study was to explore whether specific subjective experiences during Reiki are associated with improvements in health-related symptoms.

This study was conducted across private Reiki practices in the United States. The sample consisted of 1,284 Reiki sessions from clients who completed surveys before and after receiving Reiki.

Reiki practitioners invited their clients to complete measures assessing physical and psychological symptoms immediately before and after each 60-minute in-person session. Participants also described their subjective experiences during the session.

Key Findings from the Study:

✨Experiencing positive emotions during Reiki was significantly associated with higher well-being and reduced anxiety.

✨Experiencing body sensations during Reiki was significantly associated with greater pain relief.

✨Body sensations improved well-being through pain relief, while positive emotions and emotional release improved well-being through anxiety reduction.

The subjective experience of receiving Reiki is related to changes in different psychological and physical health symptoms. These findings suggest that what you feel during a Reiki session may be connected to the specific benefits you receive.

Happy 100th Birthday I’m sending SO much love 💖 and gratitude 🙏🏻 to you 💖

My life has been deeply influenced and inspired by your work and just you as a human being! You’re a beautiful soul ⭐️

As a child my favourite part of the week was Sunday evening’s seeing what adventure you were on next, what weird and wonderful creature you had found.

It inspired me to have a deep passion for all beings and the natural world, to adventure to parts of the world I’d only dreamed of as a child!

You’re how I knew I’d met the right person to spend my life with, because all we did was talk about you, nature and go on adventures, following your footsteps around the world. Love you SO much your passion for nature is also inspiring 💖

I once had a clause written into a contract of a new job, that if you died I would need the day off to watch your work and mourn deeply… Thanks 🤣

And…Most importantly, you’re who I named my son after Attie (short for Attenborough)

Attie Alexander Frier! 💖

We dreamed he would follow in your footsteps and although heartbreakingly, he didn’t get to do that.

I know that the people closest to us, understood our love for you and all that you stand for 💖

And in your and his name, they all make a conscious effort to connect to nature with more passion than before! 💖

I hope you’re having the best day ever! 🙌🏻 I send so much love 💖 and gratitude 🙏🏻 to you!

Happy Birthday! You absolute legend 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖

**My most prized possession a handwritten letter from David Attenborough after I sent him photos from our honeymoon to the Galapagos**

Happy International Women’s Day!

There weren’t enough photos to fit everyone in!! ☹️

But….Feeling so blessed to know so many extraordinary women, women who make this world a much better place! I send so much gratitude & love to you today, and always 🩷✨

If you want to know how to be rebellious in these times of hardship, come together, hold each other up, share your love, your talents, your compassion and support each other to rise!

It’s actually really important at this time that we be compassionate with each other, that we do come together, we need more loving feminine energy to balance the masculine!

Rant over….

Love to all the women of the world!!!! ❤️🩷♥️🩵🧡💙💚💜💛🤩

✨Exciting Reiki Research Update! ✨

Hey Lovelies,

Another amazing Reiki Study....

The aim of this study was to determine the effects of Reiki applied to women in the postmenopausal period on menopausal symptoms and depression levels.

This randomised controlled study was conducted with postmenopausal women registered in a family health center. The sample of the study consisted of 82 women (Reiki=41, control=41).

While four sessions of Reiki were applied to the women in the Reiki group, once a week for 4 weeks. All participants in the control group received routine care provided by health professionals at the family health center.

**Key Findings from the Study:**

✨The mean scores of menopausal complaints and psychological complaints were significantly reduced in the Reiki group compared to the control group.

✨Similarly, the mean score of depression was significantly decreased in the Reiki group compared to the control group.

Reiki practice significantly reduced menopausal symptoms and depression levels in postmenopausal women. These findings suggest that Reiki may be an effective complementary treatment option for women going through menopause.

I know I always say this but it really does mean so much to be able to share this beautiful practice 💖

When my son was stillborn I pushed down all of the hurt and pain because it felt too much to process. Reiki opened a line to that pain, in a safe cocooned way, it helped me to see the pain and deep grief and allow space for me to hold, process and release.

Losing will never feel or be okay for me but, Reiki my connection to nature, mindfulness, breathwork and learning to love myself have helped me to see how lucky I am, that for a very short but beautiful time, he grew and swam inside of me, and he continues to influence everything I do! For all of that I'm eternally grateful..... Thank you my beautiful Nature Angel 🙏✨

Reiki, helped me to find light in the darkest spaces of myself and I feel grateful everyday to be able to share that, to be able to put the light back into dark spaces for others! ✨

Thank you 🙏 Thank you 🙏 Thank you 🙏

✨Exciting Reiki Research Update! ✨

Hey Lovelies,

As someone who works within the NHS, providing Reiki. I am often met with the idea that Reiki is 'a nice thing to do' and nothing more!

But I know from personal experience that it made a huge difference to my cancer recovery journey, which is why I am now so passionate about it!

This is why I am joining my fellow practitioners in the fight to promote the many benefits Reiki has to offer, with regular posts about all the wonderful studies that are taking place.

My hope is that the medical world starts to really see the many benefits of this beautiful practice, respect this complementary therapy and start to open up to all the ways it could support people to heal holistically!

So here goes the very first one.... ✨

A recent study published in the Journal of Pain and Symptom Management evaluated a volunteer Reiki program for cancer outpatients receiving infusion treatments. Between March 2022 and February 2024, 392 Reiki sessions were provided to 268 unique patients.

The results were compelling and showed that even short, 15-20 minute sessions led to clinically significant improvements!

**Key Findings from the Study:**

✨Significant reductions in pain, fatigue, and anxiety.

✨A reduction in nausea.

✨An increase in overall well-being.

This study provides strong evidence for the short-term benefits of Reiki in a clinical setting, reinforcing its value as a complementary therapy. It's a beautiful example of how this gentle, yet powerful, practice can support healing on multiple levels.
