Section one
About remote sessions
What is remote Reiki?
Remote Reiki is a Reiki session received while you and I are in different places. You reserve a time, I send Reiki energy to you for the whole of that time, and you receive it wherever you are.
Is distance Reiki the same as distant Reiki, online Reiki, or virtual Reiki?
Yes. Remote Reiki, distance Reiki, distant Reiki, online Reiki and virtual Reiki are different names for the same kind of session. I send Reiki during the time you reserve, and you receive it wherever you are.
How does it work if we are not in the same place?
Reiki and energy work are not limited by distance. At the time you booked, I sit down with you and your focus in mind and I do the work for the full period you reserved. You simply receive, wherever you are.
Do I need a particular belief, and is this religious?
No particular religion or belief is required, and my work is not religious. It is spiritual, but it is not connected to a church, a denomination or a religious requirement.
You are not asked to pray, to convert, or to adopt any belief system. Receiving should be your own free choice, and if you hold a faith of your own, a session is not in tension with it.
Section two
Which service is right for me
Which service should I choose?
If you want Reiki, book the Remote Reiki Session. If it is energy that has built up through everyday life, people, places, stress and emotionally heavy periods, choose the Personal Energy & Aura Cleansing. If the concern feels spiritual in nature, such as an unwanted attachment, a curse or hex concern, or a spirit or unwanted presence, choose the Remote Spiritual Clearing & Protection. For a home that does not feel right, the Home & Space Energy Cleansing. For an animal, the Animal Reiki Session. These are different kinds of work. Choose the one that matches what you want done.
You do not need to know which method you need before you book. Tell me what is going on and I use the approach that fits you.
What is the difference between a Reiki session and an energy cleansing?
They are different work. A Reiki session is a full hour of Reiki energy sent to you, with your focus in mind. An energy and aura cleansing is direct clearing work: I clear energy that has built up through everyday life, people, places, stress and emotionally heavy periods and cleanse your aura. Each one is complete for what it is for, so choose by what you want done.
Do I have to choose a method or modality?
No. My tools include Reiki, aura and energy clearing, angelic energy work and related spiritual work, and I choose among them for you. The service you book tells me what you need done, not how.
Do I have to explain my whole situation?
No. There is one optional line when you book. A word or a sentence is enough, and you can leave it blank. Please leave out diagnoses, medical records and medication lists.
Is there a second stage or another payment after you begin?
No. Every service is one fixed price for the full work. There is no second stage, no package and no subscription, and I never tell you I found something worse that needs another payment.
Section three
Your session
Do I need to be on a phone or video call?
No. At the time you booked, I begin the work. You simply receive, wherever you are.
What do I do during the session?
Nothing is required of you. Rest, sleep, or continue a quiet activity.
If you want to settle in for it, lie down or sit somewhere comfortable and keep your arms and legs uncrossed. That helps you notice more. It does not change whether the work reaches you.
Can I sleep during my session, be at work, or be driving?
Sleeping is fine, and many people do. Working is fine. Traveling as a passenger is fine.
Do not drive or operate machinery during your reserved time. Nothing about a session requires your attention, but deep relaxation and driving do not belong together.
What might I feel, see, hear, or become aware of?
Each person experiences it in their own way. You may notice warmth, coolness, tingling, movement, emotion, stillness, inner images, words, impressions, or simply a quieter state. Some people notice nothing at the time and feel the difference over the following days.
What happens after my session?
You receive a short email from me confirming the session took place, with my recommendation for what comes next and when, and a link to book it when it suits you. There is nothing further you need to do.
How often should I book?
Energy is shaped every day by what you are doing, thinking and feeling and by the people and places around you, so maintaining the work is worthwhile. For Reiki I normally recommend another session within a week or two. For an energy cleansing, about every three to four weeks. For a home, about every three months. After a Remote Spiritual Clearing & Protection I recommend a Personal Energy & Aura Cleansing in about three to four weeks, for ongoing energy and aura care. I tell you after each session, and you decide.
Section four
Booking, timing and time zones
How much does each service cost?
Remote Reiki Session, 60 minutes, $97. Personal Energy & Aura Cleansing, $197. Remote Spiritual Clearing & Protection, $447. Home & Space Energy Cleansing, $557. Animal Reiki Session, 60 minutes, $97. Each price is stated up front. There is no package, subscription or membership.
How far ahead can I book, and how soon before a session can I book?
You can book up to 90 days ahead, and up to 2 hours before a session starts.
Times are available every day from 1:00 PM to 9:00 PM US Central Time, and the booking page shows them in your own time zone.
What time zone are the times shown in, and can I change it?
Every available time is shown in your local time zone, detected from your browser. You can change it on the booking page before you pick a time if your device has it wrong.
Can I book a session for another adult?
Sessions for a person are booked by the adult who will receive. That keeps the person’s own choice clear. You can book for an animal in your care through the Animal Reiki Session, and a home cleansing for any home or space you have the right to book for.
Can I book from outside the United States?
Online booking is currently available only to customers in the United States. International booking is not available at this time.
Section five
Payment, changes and cancellations
How do I pay, and is my payment secure?
You pay by card at the time of booking, and payment is handled by Stripe.
Card details are entered on Stripe’s own secure payment form. They are not stored on this site, and I never see them. Sessions are prepaid, and a booking is confirmed only once payment succeeds.
What happens if my payment fails?
If payment does not succeed, no booking is created and the time is not reserved. You may try again or choose another time.
If you see a duplicate charge, or a technical problem stops a successful payment from becoming a booking, email me and I will put it right with a full refund, and I absorb the processing cost.
Can I cancel or reschedule my session?
If you need to cancel your session, you can cancel from your booking-management page or email me at support@receivereiki.com. If your cancellation is made at least 24 hours before your scheduled session, I will refund the amount you paid minus the payment-processing fee. If you cancel less than 24 hours before your scheduled session, the booking is no longer refundable. If you email me to cancel, the time I receive your email is the time used to determine whether your cancellation is inside or outside the 24-hour window. Your booking-management page is the private link in your confirmation email. When you cancel there and a refund is due, the amount paid, the payment-processing fee and the refund are shown before you confirm, and confirming sends that refund to your payment provider. If the exact fee cannot be established it is reviewed by hand rather than estimated. Inside 24 hours you may instead move the session once, free of charge, up to 4 hours before the start; using that one change permanently ends cash-refund eligibility for the booking. If I cancel, you choose between a full refund of everything you paid, including any tip, or a free reschedule. The cancellation policy sets out every case.
Can I add a tip, and do I have to?
A tip is optional, and No tip is selected by default. Adding or declining one does not change your session.
If you add a tip, it is part of the same payment and included in refund calculations. The processing cost is calculated once on the total amount.
Is what I write when I book kept private?
Yes. The optional line is read only by me, and it is not published anywhere. The address for a home cleansing and the location of an animal are private booking information, never placed in a calendar entry, an email or analytics. The privacy policy explains what is stored and for how long.

About Norbert, and what this is not
Who is Norbert Seres?
I am a Reiki Master Teacher, and I have worked with Reiki and energy for more than 23 years. I completed Reiki Teacher training in 2004 and continued to Reiki Grandmaster training in 2005.

Read more on the About page.
Is this medical care, and can it replace my doctor or therapist?
No. Everything I offer is a spiritual-wellness service, not medical or psychological care. It does not diagnose, treat or replace anything a qualified professional has advised. The Wellness Disclaimer explains the full scope of the service.
What is the Remote Spiritual Clearing & Protection?
It is the service I use for concerns that feel spiritual in nature, such as an unwanted attachment, a curse or hex concern, a spirit or unwanted presence, or another spiritual influence. I do the spiritual clearing and include seven days of energetic protection afterward. The protection is there to help keep outside negative energy from taking hold while still respecting your free will. It is calm, confident work at one fixed price, and I do not use fear.
What kinds of spiritual concerns do you work with?
People use different words for what they experience, including attachments, curse or hex concerns, spirits, ghosts or unwanted presences, and sometimes demons. You do not need to know exactly what to call it before you book. Tell me what has been happening in your own words, and I do the spiritual clearing work I use for that kind of concern.
How old do I need to be to book?
You must be 18 or over to make a booking. Sessions for a person are booked by the adult who will receive. Animal sessions may be booked by an adult owner or authorized caretaker.
Section seven
Reiki for animals
Can I book Reiki for an animal?
Yes. An adult owner or authorized caretaker can book a 60-minute Animal Reiki Session for a dog, cat, horse, or another animal in their care.
What information do I provide for an animal session?
The animal’s name, type, breed or identifying description, and the location where the animal will be during the scheduled session. Age and a line about what you would like me to focus on are optional.
What location should I enter for a horse?
Enter the location where your horse will be during the session, such as the address of a barn, stable, ranch, pasture property, or other location.
What does the animal need to do during the session?
Nothing. The animal stays in its familiar environment and continues its normal routine. It can rest, sleep, eat, or move around.
Does animal Reiki replace veterinary care?
No. Animal Reiki is a spiritual-wellness service and does not diagnose, treat, prescribe, or replace care from a licensed veterinarian.
Still have a question?
Ask it, or choose a service and a time and I do the rest.
