Cord Cutting

WHAT IS CORD CUTTING?

Cord cutting is a guided wellbeing practice designed to help you release emotional attachments that may be holding you back.

These “cords” are not physical. They are a way of describing the emotional ties we can carry after difficult experiences such as:

• Relationship breakdowns or separation
• Bereavement or loss
• Ongoing family or personal dynamics
• Habits, fears, or patterns that feel hard to move on from

The intention is not to erase memories or remove meaningful connections. Instead, it focuses on helping you let go of the emotional weight that may be attached to them.

Many people seek cord cutting when they feel stuck, overwhelmed, or overly influenced by past experiences or relationships.

HOW CAN REIKI SUPPORT THIS PROCESS?

In a Reiki-based cord cutting session, the focus is on relaxation, awareness, and emotional release.

You will be seated comfortably with your eyes closed while the practitioner works in a calm, non-invasive way, similar to a standard Reiki treatment. The session may include guided visualisation or intention-setting techniques to help you mentally and emotionally “let go” of what no longer serves you.

Some people experience:

• A sense of emotional release
• Deep relaxation
• Greater clarity or perspective
• Feeling lighter or less affected by a situation

Reactions vary. Some feel immediate calm, others notice subtle changes over time.

Reiki in this context supports the body and mind to settle, creating space for reflection and release. It does not force change, but helps you process things at your own pace.

IMPORTANT TO KNOW

Cord cutting is a personal and subjective experience. It is not a medical or psychological treatment and does not replace professional support where needed.

It can, however, be a useful complementary practice for those looking to move forward, gain clarity, and reduce the emotional intensity linked to past experiences.
