Reiki Healing and Spiritual Guidance to Restore Clarity, Balance and Cultivate a More Loving Relationship with Yourself
Pause. Breathe. Receive. Reconnect.
Hello and welcome, my name is Mariya.
I'm so glad you have found this space.
Here, I offer Distance Reiki Energy Healing, rooted in traditional Usui Reiki, alongside intuitive guidance, energetic clearing and wisdom gathered along my own healing path.
My intention is to support you in nurturing a deeper sense of inner balance, restoring a more loving relationship with yourself, and rediscovering the quiet wisdom and wholeness already held within you.
I offer a calm, nurturing and confidential space that feels supportive of your own personal journey.
Whether you are navigating challenges, seeking growth and transformation, feeling a little lost in life, longing for more balance, or simply looking for a place to deeply relax, you are welcome here!
Drawing inspiration from nature, the changing cycles of life and my personal reflections, this space offers a moment of respite from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
A breathing space. A gentle invitation to pause and reconnect more deeply with the quiet whispers of your Soul, listen to your needs and see yourself in a kinder and more accepting light.
The natural inspiration and magic of the Earth's wisdom are found so abundantly on the beautiful and rugged island of Shetland, at the northern tip of Scotland. Nestled between the North Sea and the Atlantic Ocean, with breathtaking coastal vistas, rolling hills, crystal-clear waters and wild sweeping winds, Shetland has been my dear home since 2002.
I found Reiki in 2025, during a time of deep personal healing, and it became a gentle source of support, stability and empowerment along the way. Reiki helped me hold myself from falling apart as I navigated a turbulent healing journey, one that ultimately brought me home to myself. And for that, I am deeply grateful.
Now, through Soul Sanctuary Reiki, I hope to welcome you home too.

There is nothing you need to do.
No expectations to meet.
No goals to perfect.
Simply arrive as you are.

Pause. Breathe. Receive.
Welcome to Soul Sanctuary Reiki!
Welcome to a healing space for carers, givers and space holders, those who are tired of being there for everyone else, whilst losing yourself in the process.

Holding everything together ~ continually giving, caring, managing or being strong for others.

Welcome to a healing space for carers, givers and space holders, those who are tired of being there for everyone else, whilst losing yourself in the process.
Perhaps you have been:
Holding everything together ~ continually giving, caring, managing or being strong for others.
Repeating familiar patterns ~ understanding why you do certain things, yet finding it difficult to make different choices.
Holding yourself back ~ setting aside your needs, voice, creativity, desires or natural expression.
Struggling to receive ~ finding it easier to support others than to welcome care and support yourself.
Feeling spiritually disconnected ~ sensing a deeper dimension to life but finding it difficult to express or experience in everyday living.
Standing at a threshold ~ recognising that an old way of living no longer feels right, without knowing what comes next.
Perhaps you have become so accustomed to adapting to life that you have lost touch with what it means to participate in it fully as yourself.
And perhaps something within you is gently inviting you to reconnect ~ with yourself, your own inner wisdom and the life waiting to be lived.
Whatever your journey is, you are warmly welcome here!
Soul Sanctuary Reiki offers a gentle approach to healing ~ rooted in presence rather than fixing, self-trust rather than external answers, and acceptance rather than the pressure to change.
My role is not to determine your path or promise to remove life's difficulties, but to offer a compassionate, supportive space where you can reconnect with your own inner wisdom, be guided by your own light, through the unfolding journey of life.
Reiki holds a gentle yet powerful presence for us to be able to connect to our wholeness, restore a deeper sense of inner trust and stability, so we may continue lighting up the paths for others without sacrificing our own light.
♡
All Soul Sanctuary Reiki sessions are offered as Distance Reiki via Zoom.
1:1 Distance Reiki offers personalised Reiki, individual attention and optional reflection, with space to explore what feels meaningful to you.
Group Distance Reiki offers a shared, theme-led experience of Reiki, stillness and gentle self-exploration.
There is no expectation to achieve anything, hold particular beliefs or arrive with answers.
Simply come as you are ~ and allow yourself the freedom to begin where you are.
Please note ~ Reiki is a complementary wellbeing practice and does not replace medical or psychological care.
My intention is for you to enjoy exploring this gentle, heart-centred space devoted to helping you cultivate an inner sanctuary ~ steady enough to welcome change, spacious enough to allow life to move, and compassionate enough to embrace the fullness of being human.
Soul Sanctuary Reiki was born from my own journey of healing and learning
My intention is for you to enjoy exploring this gentle, heart-centred space devoted to helping you cultivate an inner sanctuary ~ steady enough to welcome change, spacious enough to allow life to move, and compassionate enough to embrace the fullness of being human.
Soul Sanctuary Reiki was born from my own journey of healing and learning how to come home to myself ~ not by becoming someone different, but by developing a kinder, more curious and accepting relationship with who I already am.
Reiki became my peaceful companion. A space to pause. A moment to breathe. An invitation to soften, listen and reconnect with my body, my emotions, my needs and the quiet inner voice I had learned to silence.
Through my healing journey, a beautiful gift emerged ~ rekindling my connection with myself and my passion for life.
This is the space I now offer to you.
Life moves. Circumstances change. Emotions rise and fall. Identities evolve.
Yet through it all, we can cultivate an inner place of steadiness ~ a quiet point of reference that allows us to remain connected to ourselves, even as life continues to change around us.
Through gentle Reiki energy healing, compassionate presence and intuitive reflection, Soul Sanctuary Reiki offers space to rest, reconnect and explore your inner experience.
Here, there is no pressure to achieve, perform or become anything.

Through gentle Reiki energy healing, compassionate presence and intuitive reflection, Soul Sanctuary Reiki offers space to rest, reconnect and explore your inner experience.
Here, there is no pressure to achieve, perform or become anything.
Reiki is offered as a complementary practice that supports an inner reconnection and personal reflection, creating an opportunity to notice what may have been overlooked amid the busyness of life.
As we gently turn towards our inner experience, we may begin to recognise the needs beneath our emotions, the longings beneath our fears, and the protective patterns that once helped us navigate difficult experiences.
Rather than fighting these parts of ourselves, we can begin to meet them with curiosity, understanding and compassion.
And from this growing awareness, greater freedom to choose, express ourselves and connect, more of our true authenticity and connection can emerge.
An inner sanctuary is not a place where nothing changes.
It is a living relationship with ourselves that allows change to unfold.
A place where emotions can move without defining us. Where uncertainty can exist without determining our direction. Where we can honour our needs, establish healthy boundaries, receive support and participate ful
An inner sanctuary is not a place where nothing changes.
It is a living relationship with ourselves that allows change to unfold.
A place where emotions can move without defining us. Where uncertainty can exist without determining our direction. Where we can honour our needs, establish healthy boundaries, receive support and participate fully in life without losing our connection to ourselves.
We begin to discover that stability is not the absence of movement.
It is the ability to remain connected to ourselves within it.
And healing need not become an endless project of self-improvement.
It can become a gentle restoration of our capacity to experience, receive and engage with life ~ with greater presence, freedom and trust in ourselves.
At the heart of Soul Sanctuary Reiki is a simple spiritual understanding:
We are not here to escape our humanity in search of something more sacred.
We are here to bring the qualities of our Soul ~ love, awareness, wisdom, compassion and authentic expression ~ more fully into the ordinary experience of being human.

At the heart of Soul Sanctuary Reiki is a simple spiritual understanding:
We are not here to escape our humanity in search of something more sacred.
We are here to bring the qualities of our Soul ~ love, awareness, wisdom, compassion and authentic expression ~ more fully into the ordinary experience of being human.
To feel deeply without losing ourselves.
To care without becoming depleted.
To give and receive without sacrificing our own needs.
To honour our joy, embrace our individuality and delight in the experience of being alive.
To trust ourselves enough to meet life's changing seasons with greater presence, acceptance, discernment and choice.
Our spiritual journey shouldn't take us away from life.
It brings us more fully into it.
Healing isn't the destination.
Life is!
Like the North Star, your inner wisdom offers a steady point of orientation amidst life's changes. It doesn't dictate where you must go, but helps you recognise where you are and choose how you wish to move forward.

Like the North Star, your inner wisdom offers a steady point of orientation amidst life's changes. It doesn't dictate where you must go, but helps you recognise where you are and choose how you wish to move forward.
Returning home to yourself is not a final destination.
It is an ongoing relationship with who you are, through every experience, every transition and every season of life.
A remembering that you can change without losing yourself.
You can grow without abandoning yourself.
You can embrace life without needing to control its every movement.
And this is what an inner sanctuary truly offers.
A steady place within yourself from which life can be fully lived.
