"It begins with a moment of relaxation.

That moment of relaxation, of silence, of stillness, lets the clatter quiet, the bustle settle, opening the door for the return of your healing intelligence.

In that moment of silence, stillness, and relaxation, your organs and energy channels have an opportunity to take up harmonious vibrations again.

And in that moment of relaxation, you have an opportunity to use your consciousness to help your body to do that."

At HeartSong Normandie in Mortain, Reiki is offered as a space to pause, soften, and return to yourself. Whether you are completely new to Reiki or looking to deepen your experience, you are warmly welcomed into a calm and supportive environment for well-being and self-discovery.

What is Reiki?

“Reiki is a practice of being, a way of living in harmony with oneself and others.”

Reiki is a gentle, holistic energy practice that supports relaxation, balance, and overall well-being. Originating in Japan, Reiki works with the body’s natural processes by encouraging the flow of life force energy.

When we experience stress, emotional strain, or physical discomfort, this energy can feel disrupted. Reiki offers a gentle way to support the body and mind in returning to a more balanced state.

At its heart, Reiki is an invitation to slow down, reconnect, and listen inward.

Who is Reiki for?

Reiki may support you if you are:

• Feeling stressed, overwhelmed, or exhausted

• Navigating emotional challenges or life transitions

• Experiencing physical tension or discomfort

• Curious about energy healing or spirituality

• Seeking a deeper sense of calm, clarity, or connection

No prior experience is needed - only a willingness to pause, soften, and meet yourself in the moment. 

What happens during a Reiki session?

A Reiki session is a deeply relaxing and calming experience.

• You remain fully clothed, lying comfortably on a treatment table

• Gentle hands-on or hands-off energy work is offered

• Sessions typically last around 60-90 minutes

• Many people experience warmth, tingling, deep relaxation, or a sense of peace

Each session is unique, guided by your needs in the moment. You are held in a safe, calm, and nurturing space throughout.

Potential Benefits of Reiki

Reiki may support:

• Deep relaxation and stress reduction

• Relief from tension and discomfort

• Emotional balance and release

• Improved clarity and focus

• Better sleep

• A deeper connection to yourself

While Reiki is not a substitute for medical care, it can be a supportive complementary practice for holistic well-being.

Understanding Reiki

Reiki is often described as “universal life force energy” - a natural energy that flows through all living beings.

When this energy is balanced and flowing freely, we tend to feel well, grounded, and at ease. When it becomes depleted or disrupted, we may experience stress, fatigue, or imbalance. Reiki works gently to support the restoration of this natural flow.

The word Reiki comes from two Japanese elements:
Rei, meaning universal or spiritual consciousness, and
Ki, meaning life force energy (similar to Chi in China or Prana in India).

Reiki as a practice was developed in the early 20th century by Mikao Usui, and is influenced by principles of mindfulness, compassion, and the interconnectedness of all life.

It shares similarities with other holistic practices such as yoga, qigong, acupuncture, and acupressure all of which work with the body’s energy system to support balance and well-being.

Reiki can also be used alongside other complementary therapies, gently supporting the body, mind, and emotional system as a whole.

About Me

My name is Ema, and I am a Usui Reiki Master Teacher.

Reiki is at the heart of my work and daily life. I have been a Reiki practitioner since 2007 and a Usui Shiki Ryoho Reiki Master-Teacher since 2010. My lineage is rooted in the tradition of Mikao Usui, Chujiro Hayashi, Hawayo Takata, and Phyllis Lei Furumoto, anchoring my practice and teaching within the Usui system.

I offer individual Reiki sessions, Reiki training (Levels 1, 2, and Master-Teacher), and Reiki Share Circles - all centred on rest, nervous system regulation, mindful presence, and self-compassion.

My approach is gentle, grounded, and relational. It is informed by over 20 years of experience in therapeutic and retreat settings, as well as my MA in Group and Intercultural Psychotherapy from Goldsmiths, University of London.

My practice is also shaped by training in meditation, yoga nidra, qigong, bodywork, sound therapy, spiritual life coaching, and Yin Yoga, alongside my ongoing study of Buddhist meditation practices such as mindfulness of breathing and loving-kindness (mettā). These approaches deepen my understanding of awareness, compassion, and presence, supporting me to hold space in an integrated and responsive way.

In all that I offer, my intention is to create a safe and supportive space where you can slow down, reconnect with yourself, and develop a deeper relationship with this subtle yet powerful practice.

I look forward to welcoming you.

A Space to Return to Yourself

There are moments in life when we need to slow down -
to be held in stillness, to breathe, to simply be.

Reiki offers a gentle and supportive space for this.

Whether you are moving through challenge or simply longing for calm, this is a place where you can reconnect with yourself and allow your body to rest and restore.

Everything begins with a moment of relaxation.
