Life After A Reiki Attunement: 10 Shifts Students Never Expected
Have you ever wondered what life after a Reiki attunement really feels like?
One of the most sacred parts of learning Reiki is the attunement process — a beautiful ritual where a Reiki Master connects you to the frequency of Reiki energy. During your attunement, your crown, third eye, and palm chakras are gently opened, allowing Reiki energy to flow through you.
Activating Reiki
From that moment on, Reiki is activated within you for life. That’s right – you never have to have another attunement at that level again, as it lasts forever! Reiki energy begins to flow through your crown, into your heart, down your arms, and out through your palms. This opens the door to a whole new way of experiencing the world — emotionally, physically, mentally, and spiritually.
But what happens after?
Here are 10 ways students describe life after their first Reiki attunement — and why it could be the next step on your healing journey.
1. Your Vibration Rises ✨
Being attuned to Reiki connects you to a high-frequency energy source, and your body begins to match that frequency. Some students describe it as feeling “lighter” or “brighter,” while others notice waves of warmth or tingling energy.
Integration takes time — which is why I provide a 21-day post-course e-series to support you as your body adjusts to this new vibration.
2. Synchronicities start appearing 🔮
After an attunement, life often starts to feel more aligned. Students notice repeating angel numbers, chance encounters, “lucky breaks,” and doors opening where they were once closed. It’s as though the universe starts working with you instead of against you.
3. Life begins to flow with ease 🌿
You might find more green lights on your drive home, unexpected opportunities, or simply people smiling at you more. When your energy is in flow, the outer world mirrors that inner harmony.
4. Animals are drawn to you 🐦🐕🐈
Animals are highly sensitive to energy. Students often share that birds, pets, and even wild animals seem more comfortable around them after their attunement — sensing the calm, healing energy they now carry.
5. Your intuition opens up 🌙
The Reiki attunement process opens your third eye, deepening your intuitive connection. You might start trusting your gut more, noticing inner nudges, or even hearing clearer intuitive guidance. Many students describe it as finally “knowing” what’s right without overthinking.
6. Psychic abilities can awaken 👁️
For some, intuitive gifts come online quickly after an attunement:
- Clairvoyance (seeing energy or images)
- Clairaudience (hearing messages)
- Clairsentience (feeling energy)
- Claircognizance (deep inner knowing)
You’ll only ever open to what you’re ready for — you are always in control of your experience.
7. Your body craves higher-vibe foods 🥗
As your vibration rises, your body often wants to match it. Many students naturally start choosing more nourishing, lighter foods like fresh fruit, vegetables, and green juices, while suddenly feeling less drawn to alcohol, sugar, or processed food.
8. You feel lighter, happier, and calmer ☀️
Students frequently describe a sense of peace and emotional ease after their attunement. The things that once triggered stress or anxiety often feel less heavy. You might feel like you can overcome challenges with more ease. Reiki also clears stagnant emotions and restores balance to your nervous system.
9. Relationships transform 💞
When your energy shifts, the way you connect with others does too. You may notice deeper connections with friends and family, more kindness and compliments from strangers, and old wounds starting to heal naturally. Sometimes, relationships that no longer serve your highest good will also fall away, creating space for healthier, more aligned connections.
10. Wounds and blocks rise to be healed 🌊
In the weeks following your attunement, Reiki can also bring up emotions, memories, or situations that are ready to be released. While this can sometimes feel intense, it’s a powerful opportunity to clear what no longer serves you.
That’s why my 21-day integration e-series and private student WhatsApp group (only for students on your specific Reiki Course) are so valuable — you’re fully supported as you process, share, and grow alongside others on the same journey.
Your next step
A Reiki attunement isn’t just a learning experience, it honestly feels like a life upgrade. It opens the door to deeper healing, stronger intuition, and a more aligned, flowing life. If you are feeling ready to take the next step, I’d love to support you!
