Distance Reiki session being sent from Kathmandu, Nepal

Live Video. Classical Level 2 Protocol. 60 Minutes.

Distance Reiki Healing from Nepal

A remote Reiki session delivered live from Kathmandu to clients anywhere in the world, using the traditional Usui Level 2 distance-healing protocol. The same sixty minutes, the same Reiki Master, the same rate as an in-person session.

What is distance Reiki, and how is it different from an in-person session?

Distance Reiki is a sixty-minute Reiki healing session delivered remotely, using one of the traditional Usui Level 2 symbols that is specifically designed for healing across space. At Jivan Parivartan the practitioner is in Kathmandu, the client is at home anywhere in the world, and the work is the same as an in-person session except that you do not need to be in the same room. The price is identical to an in-person session, $50 for the hour.

The format itself is straightforward. We connect by Zoom or WhatsApp video at your scheduled time. We spend about five minutes on intake, the same conversation we would have if you walked into the centre. You then lie down somewhere quiet in your home, eyes closed, while the practitioner works in silence for around forty-five minutes through the standard hand-position sequence, sending Reiki using the distance symbol. We then come back to the call for five to ten minutes of integration and aftercare. You stay on the video the whole time, with the camera facing you, although you are welcome to turn the screen face-down once you have settled.

For practitioners trained in the Usui system, distance work is a fundamental skillset taught at Reiki Level 2 (Okuden) and not an improvisation. It is one of the three classical symbols introduced at that level and is a routine part of traditional Reiki practice worldwide. The crucial point is that the practitioner needs to be properly trained at Level 2 or above. Both Maa Nisha Kabir and Swami Anish hold Reiki Master qualifications and have been delivering distance sessions for years.

For the wider context, see the Reiki hub at Jivan Parivartan. If you are working with chronic stress and want a structured short series rather than a single session, the Reiki for stress management protocol can be run entirely at distance.

The Session, Step by Step

What actually happens during a live distance Reiki session?

A distance Reiki session runs to the same five-part structure as an in-person session: intake, settling, transmission, integration and closing. The only difference is the video link.

1

Connect on video (5 minutes)

We connect on the agreed platform a few minutes before the session. We confirm the audio and video are working, then have a short intake conversation about what brought you in, anything medical we should know, and the intention for the session.

2

Settle into your space (5 minutes)

We guide a couple of minutes of slow nasal breathing while you lie down on your bed or mat. The camera stays on, pointed at you. You can close your eyes, cover with a blanket, and turn the device screen-down if you prefer; the audio stays open in case we need to speak.

3

Reiki transmission (40 to 45 minutes)

The practitioner works in silence in Kathmandu, holding the distance symbol and moving through the standard hand-position sequence on an energetic representation of you. You rest. There is nothing you need to do except stay in the body and breathe normally. Many clients drop into a half-sleep state in the second half.

4

Quiet integration (5 minutes)

We will softly bring you back over the audio with a few simple cues, then give you a couple of silent minutes to come fully back. There is no rush. The work does not benefit from being yanked out of stillness too quickly.

5

Closing conversation (5 to 10 minutes)

We come back to the video for a short, honest conversation about what we noticed in the work, what you noticed in the body, and what is sensible for the next twenty-four hours. We close with aftercare guidance and, if useful, schedule the next session before logging off.

Who is distance Reiki most useful for, and when is it not the right format?

Distance Reiki is the most-requested format from our international clients, especially students who studied with us in Kathmandu and want to keep working at a distance. It is also the right format for high-load professionals who cannot travel, families abroad supporting a relative, and clients who want to begin a series before they arrive in Nepal in person.

Book distance Reiki if

  • You studied with us in Kathmandu and want to maintain the connection from home
  • You are an international client who cannot easily travel to Nepal right now
  • You are a high-load professional with no spare days but ninety quiet minutes a week
  • You want to begin a stress series before you arrive for an in-person visit
  • You have a relative or partner abroad you want to support energetically
  • You are already familiar with Reiki and trust the format

×Choose in-person if you can, when

  • This is your very first Reiki session and you are in Kathmandu already
  • You have a structural body issue that would benefit from light touch
  • You do not have a quiet, private space to lie down at home
  • You have unreliable internet or no working video device
  • You are in acute crisis and need a different kind of professional support

Your Practitioners

Two Reiki Masters, both trained in the Usui lineage

Distance work is taught at Reiki Level 2 (Okuden) and used routinely by both of our founders. Choose the practitioner that fits the work you are bringing.

Maa Nisha Kabir, Reiki Master

Maa Nisha Kabir

Reiki Master & Spiritual Healer

Founder, 12+ years sadhana, 2-year cave retreat

Maa Nisha takes most distance sessions, especially for new clients and those working with grief, anxiety, post-illness recovery and general nervous-system regulation. She has worked with more than eight thousand individuals through Reiki, sound healing and meditation.

Swami Anish, Reiki Master and clinical hypnotherapist

Swami Anish

Meditation Teacher, Reiki Master & Clinical Hypnotherapist

Co-founder, Reiki Master and clinical hypnotherapist

Swami Anish takes distance sessions where Reiki is being combined with clinical hypnotherapy, where the issue is a stuck subconscious pattern, or where the client wants the more therapist-toned format he brings. He also leads our meditation programmes.

Distance Reiki from Nepal: questions clients ask

Distance Reiki uses one of the three sacred symbols introduced at Reiki Level 2 (Okuden), which is specifically designed to allow Reiki to be sent across space. The practitioner, in our case Maa Nisha or Swami Anish in Kathmandu, holds the connection through that symbol and works through the same hand-position sequence as an in-person session, treating an energetic representation of you. You, on the other end, lie quietly anywhere in the world for the same sixty minutes. The work is not weaker because of the distance; many trained Reiki practitioners describe distance sessions as remarkably clear, because intention is the carrier and distance is irrelevant to intention.
We use a short video call (Zoom or WhatsApp video) at the start and the end of the session, with the actual Reiki work done in silence in between. The opening five minutes is intake, the same as in person: what you are working with, anything medical we should know, and the intention you want to set. Then the camera stays on but you settle into stillness, eyes closed, while we work for about forty-five minutes. At the close, we come back to the call for five to ten minutes of integration and aftercare. You do not have to stay on camera for the whole session; many clients ask to turn their screen face-down once they are settled.
Nepal is on UTC+5:45, which is an unusual offset. We schedule across all major time zones. Common slots are 7 AM to 10 AM Nepal time for evening clients in North America (around 9 PM to midnight EST, 6 PM to 9 PM PST) and 4 PM to 8 PM Nepal time for morning and afternoon clients in Europe (around 11 AM to 3 PM CET, 10 AM to 2 PM GMT). Australia and East Asia clients usually take 11 AM to 3 PM Nepal time. Send us your city and two preferred slots and we will confirm.
A quiet room you will not be disturbed in, a device with a working camera and microphone (laptop or phone), comfortable clothes, a blanket, and a place to lie down where the device can rest within sight. Many clients use a bed or yoga mat with the phone propped on a chair. Switch off notifications and ask your household not to interrupt for sixty-five minutes. Have a glass of water within arm's reach. That is the entire setup.
No. A distance Reiki session is priced the same as an in-person session for sixty minutes, $50 for the hour. We do not discount the format because the work is the same and the practitioner's time is the same. Payment is taken in advance by bank transfer, Wise, or by card via an emailed invoice; once the session is confirmed and paid, you receive a calendar invite with the video link.
Many clients report that distance Reiki feels surprisingly close to an in-person session, sometimes more inward, because there is no physical presence in the room to relate to. The sensations are similar: warmth, gentle tingling, deep stillness or a drop into a half-sleep state. A few clients feel less because they are unused to the format; we usually recommend the first session in person if at all possible and the follow-up sessions at distance, although first-time-only-at-distance is perfectly normal too.
Distance Reiki is the most-requested format from students who studied Reiki or yoga teacher training with us in Kathmandu and have since returned home. They have already felt the work in person and want to keep the connection alive. It is also popular with international clients who first heard of Jivan Parivartan through word of mouth, with families abroad asking us to support a relative in difficulty, and with high-load professionals (founders, surgeons, journalists) who cannot easily travel.
Yes. A three-session or five-session arc for chronic stress and anxiety can be run entirely at distance, with the same sixty-minute structure each session. We usually schedule one session per week, on the same day and time, so the rhythm is predictable. Many international clients combine an initial in-person visit to Kathmandu with a remaining series done at distance once they have returned home; both formats work.

Related to distance Reiki

If you are visiting Kathmandu, the in-person Reiki session is the natural first step. For chronic stress and burnout, the Reiki for stress management page describes the three and five-session arcs we run, all of which can be delivered at distance. If you would rather train as a Reiki practitioner yourself (so you can self-treat between distance sessions), see Reiki training and certification in Kathmandu. To deepen the work with daily practice, pair distance Reiki with our meditation programmes or with sound healing in Kathmandu.
