Listening Again to the Beats of Your Heart
On 23rd February, the UK Reiki Federation hosted a truly special online event: Listening Again to the Beats of Your Heart, led by Natalia Gentilcore. And it was exactly what the title promised.
From the very first moments, Natalia created a space that felt intentional, calm and deeply held. This was not a presentation. It was not a lecture. It was an invitation. An invitation to pause. To soften. To reconnect with something many of us move too quickly to hear.
What unfolded over the evening was a guided experience that gently drew participants inward. Natalia’s presence was steady and sincere, allowing everyone attending to settle into a shared rhythm that felt both personal and collective at the same time.
There was something refreshingly simple about the structure of the session. No pressure to perform. No expectation to “do it right”. Just permission to breathe, to listen and to allow.
Natalia held the group with warmth and clarity, guiding attendees into a deeper connection with themselves and their own internal awareness. The atmosphere felt tangible, even through screens. A reminder that energy, intention and presence are not limited by geography.
The chat afterwards reflected what many were feeling. Gratitude. Grounding. A sense of quiet expansion.
As with any live event, there were a few unscripted moments. A planned musical element did not quite come through due to a technical issue.
And yet, in many ways, that added to the authenticity of the evening.
It was real. It was human. It was a shared experience, held with humour and grace. Natalia responded openly and ensured that attendees could access the music afterwards, keeping the integrity of the experience intact.
If you were unable to join us live, this is one you genuinely do not want to miss.
Listening Again to the Beats of Your Heart is not content to skim through while multitasking. It is an experience to create space for.
You missed the sense of practitioners across the UK choosing, together, to slow down.
Watching the recording gives you the opportunity to recreate that space on your own terms. Set aside an hour. Turn off notifications. Allow yourself the same permission to receive that those who attended gave themselves.
Evenings like this remind us what the UK Reiki Federation is truly about.
Yes, we champion professional standards, integrity and development. But we also champion depth. Reflection. Community.
With Natalia Gentilcore guiding Listening Again to the Beats of Your Heart, we were reminded that when practitioners gather with intention, something shifts. Individually and collectively.
Thank you to Natalia for holding such a beautiful space. And thank you to everyone who attended and brought their presence to the circle.
If you were not there, the replay is waiting. Take the time. Listen again.
