I love Reiki. I'm Reiki attuned and practice daily.
I infuse delicious Reiki energy into all my work, but it comes into it's own when I work with gemstones.
Precious stones - Diamonds, Rubies, Sapphires and Emeralds, all have a very special place in my heart.
Semi Precious stones are just as beautiful, and of course can even be more expensive. Think exceptionally clear aquamarine, up there with the best of diamonds. Semi precious stones are not traditionally regarded in the same way, but stones like Lapis Lazuli, Turquoise and Jade have been revered for millennia by cultures around the world, and rightfully so.
Amethyst was honoured by the Ancient Romans for it's healing properties and was said to ward off hangovers. Today it's associated with calming and regulating, and is especially highly regarded for helping with nightmares. My own children have worn Amethyst for nightmares and both also wore Amber for teething, reputed to be a natural analgesic.
Reiki energy amplifies and supports the healing properties of gemstones, and I believe that the benefits are often palpable. Being surrounded by gemstones on a daily basis raises vibration and benefits in a myriad of ways.
