Reiki & Sound Healing

Feelings and emotions are important communications. Very often, we ignore them for a variety of reasons. These communications that go unchecked don’t just disappear. They can create blocks in different areas of the energy system, and they can manifest, at times, in physical ailments. Bringing the body to relax and feel nurtured is key in the healing process.

My energy sessions are a combination of Reiki, sound and other healing modalities that I have learned over many years. As we step into this sacred space, I’ll connect to the universal healing energy that that is all around us, with the intention of bringing your mind, body and spirit into alignment so that your body’s natural healing abilities can be optimized. Often in this process we can loosen these energetic blocks and allow the stuck emotional responses to be seen so that they can be released.

These sessions are beneficial for:

  • anxiety/worry/stress reduction/depression

  • moving through difficult transitions

  • releasing trauma

  • headaches

  • insomnia

  • grief

  • muscle pain

  • PMS

Reiki and sound can also be a beautiful compliment to any ongoing treatment plan you may be under including chemotherapy

Restorative Sound Healing

1 Hour Session Sliding Scale $100-$125

Most of us have experienced in our lives some kind of sound that invokes joy, peace and satisfaction.We hear music or sounds in nature that we enjoy and seek them out because they make us feel good. What we may not realize is that these sounds are actually healing us. These beautiful vibrations are moving through all the layers of your subtle AND physical body, bringing ease, comfort and healing to places words alone will not reach. And in that, creating a path for you towards joy.

I have been exploring sound through this lens for quite some time. Inevitably, I incorporate sound healing into many of my energy sessions. However, if sound is a medium that you resonate with, you may want to consider exploring a full sound healing session.

Sound healing sessions can be completely passive as I work with different sound mediums and vibrations to clear energy blocks and activate healing energy while you rest comfortably in restorative yoga postures or on a massage table.

About Sri Devi

Hi! I'm Śri! I am here to facilitate a clear path for you to connect with your own innate healing ability. I believe we can find well-being when there is a balance in the mind, balance in the body and a connection to our spirit.

I discovered the life changing world of energy work in 1998, while in search of solutions for fertility issues. Through an ongoing relationship with my first energy-healing mentor Ellen Landress-Bowkett, I learned the process of feeling into my energy system to locate and witness my traumas in order to reintegrate different parts of myself. Building on to those skills, in 2016, I acquired my Usui/Holy Fire Reiki Master certification through Melissa Rose Redman and the International Center for Reiki Training (ICRT). Since then I have continued 1:1 mentorship with mind-body therapist Denise Jasmin to continue building my skills and deepening my understanding of how intricately the the two are connected.

Finding yoga while in recovery from surgery, I realized that the practice of yoga could be a valuable tool to facilitate healing as well. I found ShivaShakti School of Yoga in 2015 and studied intensively with them until completing my 500HR YTT in 2018. Over the years I have done specialty training in Yoga Nidra, pranayama (yogic breathwork), meditation, children’s yoga, Restorative Yoga, Ayurvedic yoga, and Thai yoga bodywork.

While on a trip to India in early 2020, I had a profound experience with a healer who taught me traditional ways of using metal singing bowls and I began diving into a passion for the healing benefits of sound. Incorporating various types of singing bowls and other sound healing tools in my healing sessions has deepened my understanding about how sound can reach places words cannot. 

I have also realized the power in using vibrations through the ancient technology of Sanskrit mantra as a healing and meditation tool which I continue to study extensively with Sri Vidya Ramananthan (Samskrita Bharati), Shantala Sriramaiah (Veda Studies) and Prem Sadasivananda from whom I was blessed to recieve my spiritual name Śri Devi in 2017. 

Rekindling a long lost love with the harmonium I share kirtan whenever I can, as well as leading weekly chanting circles.

Integrating the mind, body and heart and connecting to a deep place of joy in any moment is possible for each one of us. Bringing the nervous system to a place of deep relaxation through a variety of modalities is my top goal. When we are in this state, our own innate healing ability is activated and we can meet ourselves with presence, release stagnant energy, shift blocks and even rewrite mental patterning in order to encourage balance and harmony on all levels.

I live in beautiful Portland, ME and when I’m not teaching, studying, or seeing clients, you can find me walking in the forest, singing with the birds, or putting my feet in really cold water.
