What to Wear to a Reiki Session
If you are preparing for your first Reiki session, you may wonder what you should wear. Fortunately, Reiki is a very relaxed and comfortable experience, so there is no need for special clothing.
The most important thing is that you feel comfortable and at ease.
Comfortable Clothing Is Best
During a Reiki session, you will typically lie down on a treatment table, similar to a massage table. As you remain fully clothed, loose and comfortable clothing is usually the best choice,
Clothing that allows you to relax and breathe easily will help you settle into the experience more deeply.
Many people choose items such as:
comfortable trousers or leggings
a soft top or jumper
layers in case the room temperature changes
Removing Shoes and Jewellery
Some practitioners may ask you to remove your shoes before lying down on the treatment table. This helps you feel more comfortable and relaxed.
Large jewellery or belts may also be removed simply so you can lie comfortably during the session.
Creating a Relaxed Environment
Reiki sessions are usually designed to be calm and peaceful. Soft lighting, gentle music and a quiet space help the nervous system relax.
Once you are lying comfortably, the practitioner will begin the session by placing their hands lightly on or above different areas of your body.
Closing Reflection
There is no special dress code for Reiki. Simply wear something that helps you feel relaxed and comfortable so you can fully receive the healing experience.
With love and light
