The Path of Awakening

There comes a point—quiet, unannounced—when we realise that the way we’ve been living just isn’t working. It might not be dramatic. It’s often just a gentle, persistent feeling: something’s missing. And so begins the path of awakening. Not a straight road, not always easy, but undeniably real.

It doesn’t always start with fireworks

Let’s be honest, most spiritual journeys begin in the mundane. You’re anxious. Overwhelmed. Tired of the hamster wheel. And somewhere—maybe through a conversation, a book, or even a nudge you can’t explain—you feel drawn to pause. To slow down. To listen.

This path isn’t about becoming someone new. It’s about peeling back the noise and remembering who you’ve always been underneath it all. That’s where practices like Reiki come in. Gentle. Restorative. Deeply honest. It’s not about fixing you—because you’re not broken. It’s about helping your system remember what peace feels like.

What happens when we stop running?

You know what’s funny? When we actually sit still, even for a minute, most of us panic. The mind spins. Emotions bubble up. And that’s okay. That’s part of it. Awakening isn’t about escaping discomfort—it’s about meeting it. Slowly, softly, with compassion.

That’s what I love about offering Reiki here in Glasgow. It gives people a moment. A pocket of stillness in a very noisy world. Whether someone’s feeling anxious, disconnected or just… off, the session holds them in a kind of silent kindness. And sometimes, that’s enough. Other times, it opens a door.

You’re not walking alone

Here’s the thing: awakening can feel lonely, but it’s not. Not really. More and more people are asking deeper questions. Seeking peace. Letting go of what no longer fits. If you’re reading this, you might be one of them.

And whether you come for Reiki, a chat, or just to sit in a space that feels safe—know this: your journey matters. There’s no rush. No rules. Just one breath, one moment at a time.

If you’re anywhere near Glasgow and curious about Reiki, feel free to reach out. Sometimes, the path of awakening begins with something as simple as saying yes to yourself.
