Here are some common Reiki tools and their uses:
 
 
  • Uses: Different crystals have various properties that can enhance the Reiki energy. For example, amethyst is often used for its calming and spiritual qualities. It can help soothe the mind and promote relaxation during a Reiki session. Rose quartz is associated with love and emotional healing. It can be placed on the heart chakra to open and heal emotional blockages. Clear quartz amplifies energy and can be used to increase the flow of Reiki energy.
  • How to Use: Crystals can be placed on or around the body during a Reiki session. They can also be held by the practitioner to enhance the energy transfer.
 
 
  • Uses: Reiki symbols are powerful tools that are used to enhance the healing process. The power symbol is often used to increase the intensity of the Reiki energy. The mental/emotional symbol can help with emotional healing and release of negative emotions. The distance symbol is used for sending Reiki energy over a distance.
  • How to Use: The symbols are drawn or visualized by the practitioner during a Reiki session. They can be used to direct the energy to specific areas of the body or for distance healing.
 
Smudging Sticks (such as sage or palo santo)
 
  • Uses: Smudging is used to clear negative energy and purify the space. It can create a more harmonious environment for a Reiki session.
  • How to Use: The smudging stick is lit and allowed to smolder. The smoke is then wafted around the person receiving Reiki and around the treatment area to clear the energy.
 
Tuning Forks
 
  • Uses: Tuning forks can be used to balance the body's energy centers and promote a sense of harmony. Different frequencies of tuning forks can target specific chakras or areas of the body.
  • How to Use: The tuning fork is struck and then held near the body or on specific acupuncture points. The sound vibrations can help to realign and balance the energy.
 
Healing Oils
 
  • Uses: Essential oils can have a variety of healing properties. Some oils are calming, while others are energizing. They can be used to enhance the mood and create a more relaxing atmosphere during a Reiki session.
  • How to Use: Oils can be diffused in the air, applied topically to the body in a diluted form, or placed on a cotton ball and inhaled.
