Tossing and turning through sleepless nights? You’re not alone with insomnia—and you don’t have to keep struggling. Reiki and Energy Healing offer a natural, restorative way to calm your mind, release stress, and help your body remember how to rest deeply.

At Radiant You, many of our clients come to us exhausted from years of insomnia, racing thoughts, or restless energy that keeps them awake long after bedtime. After a few healing sessions, they often notice they’re falling asleep faster, waking less during the night, and finally greeting the morning feeling rested and clear.

When your nervous system relaxes and your energy begins to flow again, your body can do what it’s meant to do—restore, repair, and rejuvenate. Reiki, Sound Healing, and Intuitive Energy Healing help you rebalance that inner rhythm so you can sleep peacefully, wake refreshed, and shine radiant from the inside out.

“4th day in a row…sleeping. 8+ hours is amazing!”

How Energy Healing Supports Sleep

Intuitive Energy Healing (including Reiki  and Sound Healing ) relaxes the body, quiets the mind, and supports your natural healing response. Stress chemicals are pulled out while filling you with calming light. Reiki is a gentle, hands-on (or hands-off) practice used to support well-being. NCCIH

• Reiki & sleep: A 2022 study with hospital nurses found Reiki sessions “promotes health and better sleep with a reduction the time to fall asleep and in nightmares, and an increase in sleeping hours” PubMed
• Sound healing & mood: Singing-bowl sound meditation has been linked with less tension, anxiety, and fatigue—perfect allies for bedtime. PMC

“I saw Wendy for horrible insomnia I’ve had for 15 years. I’ve tried everything under the sun at least twice ,and miraculously I am actually seeing huge improvements in the last 2 weeks. I feel much better equipped to deal with it physically and mentally. Wendy is an excellent listener. She does a lot of prep prior to sessions, has a detailed conversation before her treatment, takes the time to describe what she is doing and why, and makes sure I leave with clear recommendations, including other resources to review. I wish all my health practitioners were this prepared and communicative!! She is also the real deal – today she had me totally nailed within seconds. I highly recommend Wendy.” — PATRICK C

Why Stress Hurts Sleep

Clients ask, “Why is it harder to sleep? “What is causing my nightmares, and what can I do about it?” Stress, anxiety, and low mood can start a hard cycle: poor sleep raises stress the next day, which makes it even harder to sleep at night. Research shows a two-way link between insomnia and stress and anxiety/depression. Calming the nervous system can break this loop. PMC

Look at your daytime habits of excess caffeine, medications, sleep routine, and physical health, which may also play a role. Read Is your insomnia a physical issue? and talk with your doctor.

7 Simple Steps to Better Sleep (Radiant You Style)

1. Be kind and give yourself total self-acceptance. Sleeplessness is temporary. Your body knows how to sleep.
2. Set a clear intention. “Tonight I rest deeply and wake at [time] feeling refreshed.”
3. Create a wind-down ritual (20–30 min). Dim lights. Light stretch or gentle music. Keep phones and iPads out of bed. Establish a boundary that the bed is for sleep and sex—not thinking or using a blue screen.
4. Give yourself Reiki, Energy Healing, a try a short meditation. Hands on heart/belly; notice breath.
5. Breathe to relax. Alternate-nostril or slow nasal breathing can steady the nervous system and support sleep. PMC
6. Clear the day. Journal worries; imagine putting them in a mental “vault” until morning.
7. Hug hold for safety. Cross your arms to gently hug yourself for a minute while breathing slowly. A simple hug for 20 seconds raises your oxytocin and reduces stress chemicals.

Health note: If you snore loudly, stop breathing during sleep, or suspect a medical issue, talk with your doctor first.

Give yourself Energy Healing

1. Give yourself Reiki or Energy Healing.
2. Breathe deeply. Visualize Universal Life Force Energy filling you.
3. Ask and visualize yourself being hooked up to energy circuits that heal your energetic system.
4. Pray or meditate. Turn over anything that troubles you to the Higher Power. I often visualize putting your concerns into God’s vault for the night. You decide in the morning whether you retrieve the negative thoughts and feelings. Ask that sleep is peaceful, restorative, and rejuvenative. Ask to be taking to the Sleep Healing Chamber if you are feeling stressed.
5. Call in the Sleep Angels to hold sacred space. If asked, they clear and make the bedroom a Sleep Healing Chamber. They calm the mental and emotional. They reconnect you to your Higher Power.

If You Wake in the Night

• Stretch your body.
• Pray. Ask the Sleep Angels for help.
• Pause & breathe. 3–5 minutes of slow, deep breathing (in 4–5 seconds, out 5–6 seconds) or alternate nostril breathing to balance the right and left brain.
• Body scan. Relax face → jaw → shoulders → belly → legs.
• Sip water, feel your senses. Notice sheets on skin, sounds in the room.
• Gentle self-Reiki. Hands over heart or belly; invite calm.
• Still awake after ~20 minutes? Get up briefly and do a quiet, low-light activity (no phone), then return to bed.
