I’m the face (and hands) behind Reiki Bean. My name is Sarah, and I’m truly grateful you’re here.
Reiki found me—as it often tends to do—during a difficult period in my life. By chance, I met a Reiki Master, and that meeting changed my path for the better. I’m thankful for the gentle magic of the universe that brought us together.
I’m fortunate to live in the beautiful Macedon Ranges, Victoria, with my husband and our three children. I began studying Reiki in 2023 and became a Practitioner that autumn. Since then, I’ve completed my Master’s training. I’m trained and attuned to Master level in both Reiki and Animal & Equine Reiki under the Usui Lineage Guidelines and the Tanran Reiki System.
My practice offers both in-person sessions and remote Reiki treatments, so I can support clients locally, across the regions, in all major cities and internationally.
Why ‘Reiki Bean’?
‘Bean’ has long been my nickname and it has usually been slightly modified to suit various passions and stages of life from ‘Running Bean’ when I was training for marathons to ‘Mama Bean’ when I had my first baby. So Reiki Bean felt like a fitting label. It also makes me thinking of planting seeds, much like James and the Giant Beanstalk, and I like the link between Reiki and growth.
What’s Reiki?
Reiki is a simple yet profound form of energy healing. It channels universal energy—wise, compassionate, and natural—through the practitioner’s hands to help balance the mind, body, and spirit of the receiver. Originating as a Tibetan Buddhist practice and later rediscovered by Dr Mikao Usui in the late 1800s, Reiki offers gentle support for healing and wellbeing.
Reiki can benefit people, animals, plants, places, and objects, promoting relaxation, easing stress and anxiety, and encouraging peace, security, and balance. Whether in person or through remote Reiki, the effects can be equally powerful.
What’s Tanran Reiki?
Tanran Reiki, shared through William Bagley, its vision holder, is a unique and intuitive form of Reiki. Rather than following set sequences or mapped hand placements, Tanran Reiki honours the natural wisdom of the energy itself.
Every person and animal is different and needs something unique from the session. As a practitioner, I am guided by intuition—moving hands gently and allowing the healing energy to flow where it is most needed. This uncomplicated and trusting approach helps create the space for meaningful healing in both in-person and remote Reiki sessions.
We never assume to know what healing means for another person or animal. We simply trust that channeling the energy to them allows for maximum healing at that point in time and space.
