Your First Visit

🌿 Your First Visit

What to Expect at Dreamtime Dragonfly Reiki

Walking into a new healing space for the first time can feel a little vulnerable. You may be excited, curious, nervous—or you may simply know that you need a place to rest.

However you arrive, you are welcome here.

When you come to Dreamtime Dragonfly Reiki, there is nothing you need to prepare, perform, or believe. Simply come as you are.

🦋 When You Arrive

I'll welcome you into my peaceful home studio in Forest Grove, Oregon, and we'll take a little time to visit before your session begins.

If this is your first Reiki experience, I'll explain what Reiki is, what you might experience, and answer any questions you have. You're welcome to share what has brought you to me, but you never have to share more than feels comfortable.

This time is yours.

🌙 Settling In

When you're ready, you'll relax fully clothed on a comfortable Reiki table. We'll make sure you're cozy with pillows and a blanket if you'd like.

We'll also talk about your preferences—whether you are comfortable with gentle hands-on Reiki or prefer hands-off, as well as anything else that will help you feel safe and at ease.

Then there is nothing left for you to do.

You don't need to meditate.

You don't need to quiet your thoughts.

You don't need to "do Reiki right."

You simply get to receive.

✨ During Your Reiki Session

Every Reiki experience is different.

You may notice warmth or tingling. You might feel deeply relaxed, see colors or images, experience emotions, or drift off to sleep.

You may also feel very little at all—and that's perfectly okay.

There is no "right" Reiki experience.

My role is simply to hold a peaceful, nurturing space where you can rest, receive, and reconnect with yourself.

💛 When Your Session Ends

We won't rush.

You'll have a few quiet moments to return to the room, stretch, breathe, and settle back into your body.

If you'd like, we'll spend a little time talking about your experience. You're welcome to share anything you noticed, ask questions, or simply enjoy the quiet.

Some people leave feeling lighter. Others feel peaceful, emotional, energized, sleepy, or deeply grounded.

Whatever your experience, I encourage you to be gentle with yourself afterward, drink some water, and allow yourself a little space to simply be.

🦋 Come Home to Yourself

More than anything, I want your first visit to feel safe.

You don't have to arrive with the right words.

You don't have to have everything figured out.

You don't even need to know exactly what you're looking for.

Come exactly as you are.

I'll meet you there.

And perhaps when you leave, you'll carry something home with you beyond relaxation—a little more peace, a little more connection, and the quiet feeling of having found your way...

home to yourself.

With love,

Tami Machado, CRMT
