Hi, I'm Janire

I was born in Brooklyn, New York, to Puerto Rican parents. Grew up in Park Slope/ Sunset Park. My parents both worked at banks, and we lived a modest life. I had one brother until the age of 13, and then my sister was born. My relationship with my parents was confusing, stressful, yet loving. I didn't feel like I fit in with my family, so I have spent most of my time outside. A lesson learned early was that I could not rely on or depend on them to help me grow.

Reiki showed up in my life when I needed it the most. I had been suffering from back issues that completely turned my world upside down. Because of this, I was stuck in a self-pity party for years, disconnected from God. Then one day, my doctor diagnosed me with emphysema, fatty liver, and kidneys that decided to relocate in my body. This sent me spiraling to the realization that I had done all this to myself. I searched for doctors, took myself off all medicines, and started searching for alternative methods. And REIKI was everywhere. So I started praying for clarity, then meditation while googling Reiki. I found a person online whom I was drawn to for learning.

Things started turning around in a positive direction as I learned how to tune in. I was in awe of Reiki and decided that I needed more hands-on training, because up until that point, I had only learned theory via Zoom. That's when I found Reiki Community and Anastasia Makarov, both of which have been a blessing to me. I completed a Reiki 2 refresher and Reiki Master/Teacher course with Anastasia.

Before Reiki, my life felt loud, heavy, scattered, and full of pain. Slowly, through meditation, breath, presence, gentle hands, and energy, I began to release what was no longer serving me. I learned how to let go of the stories and pressure. What remains is real, with stillness and a deep understanding that we are already whole and everything we need is within ourselves.

As a Reiki Practitioner, I offer what I receive, holding space and being a channel/vessel for the quiet and powerful gift of Reiki energy. I do not complicate the process; the Reiki itself is enough. Each session is a space to relax, to unravel, to come back to yourself with grace. Reiki is simple but runs deep; it meets you exactly where you are without judgment or pressure. Everything changes and brings you back to yourself.
