Mandy Lee,
Reiki Practitioner

My name is Mandy Lee, and I’m a Reiki Practitioner based in Berwick upon Tweed. I’m originally from just outside Toronto in Canada, but have been in the UK since 2019 and in Berwick since 2024. 

 

I have been told I’m a story disentangler; the connection between the ears and the heart; the ability for people to really feel heard. My whole life, people have been energetically drawn to tell me about what they are dealing with, and up until now I wasn’t sure why. Since starting on my Reiki journey in early 2026, I have discovered that this is my calling and my path. Working with Reiki to help people has been life changing not just for the clients I have worked with but for me as well.

What is Reiki?

Reiki can be translated as Universal Life Energy, which is the energy of everything in the universe.

 

I am trained as a Practitioner in Usui Shiki Ryoho Reiki, which is a Japanese system of natural healing and spiritual awakening that uses universal life energy to promote stress reduction, relaxation, and holistic well-being. This form of Reiki was founded in Japan in the early 1920s by Mikao Usui.

How does Reiki work?

As everything in the universe is made up of energy, and that energy flows through your body along pathways called meridians and chakras, this means that when that energy is flowing smoothly your body can naturally repair and protect itself. But when the energy is being blocked or weakened by stress, illness, or dis-ease you may start feeling fatigued, anxious, or generally unwell. 

 

This is where a Reiki Practitioner can help. They do not use their own energy in a session but instead tap into the Universal Life Energy, which runs at a higher vibration, and act as a conduit to let it flow through them and into the client they are working on. By leveraging the high-vibration energy, the Practitioner is able to use their intuition to guide them to where the client’s energy feels heavy, blocked, or sluggish, and help to break up that stagnation and restore a healthy flow.
