Have you ever entered a room filled with laughter and joy, only to find yourself smiling? Or listened to a soothing music that quieted your restless thoughts? That’s entrainment in action.
Reiki works similarly by acting as a high-vibrational energies that soothes the recipient’s energetic dissonance. When the practitioner’s hands hover over or gently touch the body or channel the energy distantly, the recipient’s energy field begins to resonate with Reiki’s calming frequency. Then stress dissipates, chakras align, and a profound sense of well-being emerges. That’s why most of the time when you ask the receiver after the Reiki session that how they are feeling. The most common answer is “They are feeling light”.
This is healing through Resonance as the receiver starts feeling lighter after receiving Reiki.
Reiki and the Law of Entrainment
In the vast universe of energy healing, one principle silently governs the dance of vibrations: the Law of Entrainment. It whispers to us those energies, when aligned, naturally synchronise, creating harmony and balance. For Reiki practitioners and enthusiasts, understanding this profound law can elevate the art of healing into a symphony of energetic alignment.
But what is the Law of Entrainment? How does it weave into the fabric of Reiki’s gentle power? Let us journey together through its essence.
The Essence of Entrainment
The Law of Entrainment originates from the observation that when two rhythms interact, the stronger rhythm influences the weaker, bringing them into sync. The most popular example is, imagine two pendulum clocks ticking at different speeds. Over time, the vibrations from the stronger pendulum will align the weaker one, creating a unified rhythm.
In the Healing aspects, during group meditation or chanting, the heartbeats of participants often synchronise. This happens because the collective rhythm of breathing and chanting creates a unified frequency that entrains the biological rhythms of the group.
In terms of energy healing, this principle can be applied. Our bodies, emotions, and even our thoughts can be entrained to higher frequencies of peace, love, joy and healing for various aspects of life.
Reiki: The Gentle Conductor of Energies
Reiki acts as a conduit for universal life force energy. When a practitioner channels Reiki, they help to raise the vibrations of the recipient by attuning to the higher frequencies of healing and thus bring emotional wellbeing and balance to the individual.

The practitioner doesn’t force change; rather, they hold space, allowing the recipient’s energy to naturally entrain to the harmonious rhythm of Reiki’s flow. This is where the Law of Entrainment shines.
Practical Ways to Harness Entrainment in Reiki
- Ground Yourself: A grounded practitioner emits stable vibrations that easily entrain the recipient. Use any grounding techniques or connect with nature.
- Practice Consistent Breathing: Deep, rhythmic breathing creates a steady energetic flow. By breathing in harmony, both the practitioner and recipient can align their vibrations for a deeper entrainment experience.
- Create a Sacred Space: Use candles, incense, or essential oils to elevate the session’s ambiance. A peaceful, high-vibration environment makes it easier to achieve entrainment.
- Use Crystal Energy: Incorporate crystals like clear quartz or amethyst to enhance energy alignment. Their natural frequencies support the entrainment process by stabilising and amplifying healing vibrations.
- Cultivate Inner Stillness: Prioritise your own energetic balance before the session. A calm, centered state ensures you naturally transmit stabilising frequencies to the recipient.
- Begin with Gratitude and Set Intentions Aligned with Love: Begin each session with prayers by focusing on unconditional love and healing. Your intention sets the tone for the energy to flow.
- Use Reiki symbols: Reiki symbols like Cho Ku Rei or Sei He Ki can deepen the energy synchronisation. Visualise or trace these symbols to amplify the entrainment effect.
- Focus on Chakras: Align the session to specific chakras, gently balancing each one in turn. This targeted approach helps energy flow in harmony throughout the body.
- Incorporate Sound Healing: Combine Reiki with gentle sound frequencies like Tibetan singing bowls, healing frequencies or chanting. The vibrations amplify the entrainment effect.
- Hold the Space: Trust the process. The recipient’s energy knows how to harmonise; your role is to facilitate, not control.
These additions emphasise harmony, intuition, and intentions all of which are key to optimising entrainment in Reiki sessions.
A Universal Symphony
The Law of Entrainment reminds us that healing is not about force but flow. Reiki, with its gentle touch and universal energy, is the perfect manifestation of this truth.
When we surrender to its rhythm, we allow the natural harmonisation of mind, body and soul.
In a world often filled with chaos, Reiki and the Law of Entrainment invite us to remember harmony is always possible, and healing begins with alignment.
Step into this symphony of universal love and let Reiki’s entraining energy guide you to your highest vibration for the Greatest Good!
Divine Reiki Blessings!
