What is Reiki?
Reiki is a hands-on (or hands-off) method for helping your body and mind switch out of overdrive and into a state where you can recover and recharge. It works with your body's natural ability to heal, helping you release tension, reduce stress, and restore balance.
During a session, you simply relax - either lying down or seated - while the practitioner uses light hand placements or work just above the body to support your system's reset. There's no pressure, no manipulation, and no need to "believe" in anything for it to work.
Reiki is often used alongside other medical or therapeutic approaches to help:
-
Lower stress and anxiety
-
improve sleep quality
-
Support recovery from physical injuries or chronic pain
-
Release emotional load from trauma, grief, or life transitions
-
Boost focus, clarity, and overall energy levels
This is a non-invasive approach - you stay fully clothed, there's no talking required unless you want to, and it's all about giving your body the best conditions to shift out of fight-or-flight and into a state where real healing can happen.

Meet Kristen

Hello and thank you for visiting Grounded Connection, my little corner of the internet. So grateful you're here!
A little about me...
I currently live in the Village of Bath, just outside Kingston Ontario with my husband and our two children who are 9 and 10 years old.
Originally from the Pacific West Coast, I feel a deep connection to the ocean and forest, and we often visit Vancouver Island to soak it all in.
I served in the Canadian Armed Forces as an army medic from 2007 until my release in December 2013. Shortly after, I moved to Ontario to be with my husband, who was a special operations medic at the time.
Transitioning from a service member to a military spouse and stay-at-home mom presented its challenges. While I found joy in teaching Zumba classes, I felt a lingering void where my "healer" self once thrived.
In 2019, my husband was diagnosed with PTSD and medically released after 14 years of service.
Seeking a fresh start, we relocated from the Ottawa area to Bath, closer to his family and support network.
It was here in this incredible community that I first began studying Reiki and rediscovered my purpose in helping others again.
With my background in healthcare and having witnessed my husband's recovery journey, I feel a strong calling to support our veteran community, as well as active service members and their families, through this holistic healing practice.
