A Modern, Grounded Approach to Traditional Japanese Reiki
Ground State Reiki offers a modern, practical approach to traditional Japanese Reiki. Sessions provide a quiet space to slow down, step away from everyday demands, and reconnect with a sense of calm and balance.
It’s for anyone who could use an intentional pause—whether you’re overwhelmed, burned out, navigating change, or simply curious about Reiki.
My practice stays rooted in traditional Usui Reiki while keeping the experience approachable and down-to-earth. You don’t need to believe in anything specific, understand “energy,” or be comfortable with wellness culture. You can simply show up, settle in, and experience it for yourself.

Meet your Seattle Reiki practitioner
I'm Markia, the founder of Ground State Reiki. My Seattle-based practice offers traditional Japanese Reiki through a modern, grounded approach.
As a Reiki Master trained in Usui Reiki Ryoho, I honor the traditional foundations of the practice while creating an experience that feels welcoming, practical, and accessible.
I'm a member of the International Association of Reiki Professionals and the Center for Reiki Research. My additional training includes neuroscience coaching, trauma-informed care, and nervous system regulation.
In physics, the ground state is the lowest possible energy state of a system—its most stable and settled condition.
That idea inspired Ground State Reiki. I wanted to create a welcoming space where people could step away from the demands of everyday life and reconnect with a sense of calm, without needing to embrace any particular spiritual beliefs.
My approach is professional, respectful, and centered on creating a comfortable space for relaxation, reflection, and reconnection.

“I cannot recommend Markia for Reiki treatment enough! During my session with her I felt a euphoric sense of peace that lasted long after our session ended. She has an intuitive touch with an energy that I trusted. I was warm and comfortable and felt safe to let my guard down and my skin was buzzing with chills for the rest of the night. If your energy needs a shift and if you need to find deep relaxation please book a session with Markia at Ground State Reiki right away. I can't wait to be treated by her again.”

How Does Reiki Support Relaxation?
Understanding the Mind-Body Connection
In a world that constantly asks us to do more, it can be difficult to step away from stress and find time for ourselves. Reiki offers a quiet space to slow down, settle into relaxation, and reconnect with a sense of calm and balance.
Our emotional and physical well-being are closely connected. Making time for rest, quiet reflection, and relaxation can be a meaningful part of caring for ourselves, particularly during periods of stress or overwhelm.
Reiki is a traditional Japanese practice rooted in the concept of ki, often described as vital energy. Within this tradition, Reiki is understood as a practice of working with energy to encourage harmony and balance. While these concepts are part of Reiki's traditional philosophy, they are not established scientific explanations of how the body functions.
At Ground State Reiki, Reiki is approached with curiosity, compassion, and realistic expectations. Sessions are intended to provide an opportunity for relaxation and reflection, not to replace medical or mental health care. Both in-person Reiki sessions in Seattle and online distance Reiki sessions are available.
