Reiki helps kids in the same way it helps adults; they get a chance to ground their energy, feel calmer, and have good energetic boundaries. We offer Reiki sessions for kids, babies, and teens at LunaHolistic. Create a profile for your child on our booking page and then you can book them in for a session. You can stay in the room with them as they receive their session or wait in our reception area with a warm cup of tea. We let the child decide what makes them feel most comfortable.

Listen to the end of the episode for an active meditation technique you can do with your kids: the Rainbow Tree meditation. It helps to settle sensitive children and is wonderful right before bedtime or after school. You guide them to balance their chakras, ground, and fill their aura with light.

You stand up and together pretend you are trees! Then, you fill each chakra with a specific colour of light and imagine a bubble of white light surrounding the body. This practice is wonderful self-care for kids, as it helps them move and settle their energy and promotes a sense of safety. It helps children to connect with the earth and feel more centred.

The Rainbow Tree meditation can help reduce nightmares and provide a sense of calm and grounding. Use it in the morning to help manage anxiety and set a positive tone for the day.

Reiki helps kids to feel calm, connected, and emotionally regulated. And it's also great for parents too! Reiki can be a valuable resource for parents to better support their children and manage their own emotions. Getting your own Reiki session as a parent can help you feel centred even on the busiest day, and your kids definitely will like that!

Learning Reiki is also a great skill for a parent to have, not only for your own wellness but to model the self-care you want your kids to do. Children don't do what you say; they do what you do. So, if you have a self-care and meditation practice, they will be more likely to develop one as well.

While we don't yet have courses for children, teens 16 years old and up are welcome in our Reiki courses with parental approval. Stay tuned!

Many parents in our courses mention how much their kids love getting Reiki from them. In the second level of Reiki, we teach you to do sessions for others. Practicing Reiki on your kids is a wonderful way of providing care, comfort, and support.
