About Holy Fire® Reiki
What is Holy Fire® Reiki?
Holy Fire® Reiki is a modern evolution of Reiki, introduced within the International Center for Reiki Training.
It works with a very clear, refined quality of energy that supports inner calm, emotional clarity, and a feeling of alignment. Many people experience it as gentle and spacious, yet deeply settling.
Holy Fire® Reiki is received in a relaxed state. There’s nothing to concentrate on and nothing to control. The body and nervous system are simply given the space to soften, naturally.
How did Holy Fire® Reiki come to be?
Holy Fire® Reiki emerged naturally from within the Reiki lineage, through years of practice, teaching, and observation.
As Reiki evolved, it became clear that many people were looking for an approach that felt simpler, more direct, and easier to receive in everyday life, especially in a world of mental overload and constant stimulation.
Holy Fire® Reiki was introduced by William Rand through the International Center for Reiki Training as a way of receiving Reiki energy that feels clear, calm, and accessible.
Today, Holy Fire® Reiki is taught internationally within a clear lineage. It remains grounded in the foundations of Reiki, while responding to the realities of modern life and nervous systems.
How does Holy Fire® Reiki differ from traditional Reiki?
Holy Fire® Reiki fully respects the foundations of traditional Reiki and does not replace it. It works with the same principles and lineage, while offering a different experience.
Traditional Reiki relies on structure. Students learn specific hand positions and ways of placing attention. With Holy Fire® Reiki, the approach becomes simpler and more fluid as presence takes the place of technique. The energy is allowed to work naturally, supporting the body and nervous system in settling and finding balance.There is space to relax, remain present, and allow the process to move at the rhythm of what your system is ready for.
Holy Fire® Reiki is particularly well suited to modern lives, especially for people who are sensitive, mentally busy, or under constant pressure.

* Holy Fire® Reiki is a complementary practice. It does not replace medical or psychological care, and I do not diagnose or promise results. Reiki does not force change, it supports the body’s natural ability to settle and rebalance, at its own pace. Some people feel immediate relaxation, while others notice more subtle shifts over time.
**Holy Fire® Reiki is accessible to everyone and can be received on its own or alongside other forms of care.
What can you expect from a Holy Fire® Reiki session?
A Holy Fire® Reiki session can take place in person or online. The experience is not limited by physical space and is as equally supportive in both formats.
You get comfortable, either lying down or sitting. I place my hands gently on or above the body. During online sessions, the energy is offered at a distance.
The session unfolds in a calm and natural way. Many people feel deeply relaxed, settled, or spacious. Others may feel very little during the session and notice changes later, such as feeling calmer or more centered. There is no right or wrong experience.
There is nothing to do and nothing to achieve. You don’t need to concentrate, understand, or guide the process. Holy Fire® Reiki works gently, allowing the body and nervous system to settle at the rhythm of what feels safe and available.
