Episode #198 Archit Srivastav Reiki Found Me At Sixteen And Changed Everything

Reiki can sound mysterious until you hear what it looks like in real life: a teenager with a headache, a mother places her hands, tingling starts, sleep takes over, and the pain is gone. I’m Tracy C. Wright, and I’m joined by Archit Shivastov, a Mumbai-based multimodality healer with a foundation in Reiki, to unpack how energy healing becomes practical, repeatable, and deeply personal even for people raised in science-minded environments.

We talk openly about Reiki skepticism and the biggest misconception I hear from listeners: that you must feel energy right away for Reiki to “count.” Archit shares how he meets doubt with compassion, why Reiki is showing up more in hospitals and schools, and what matters most when choosing a Reiki practitioner: respect for free will, no grand promises, and a space where you can speak without judgment. If you’re navigating a spiritual awakening, we also dig into divine timing, intuition, and why comparing your gifts to someone else’s path can shut your own growth down.

Archit also explains how he blends Reiki with Bach flower remedies, sound healing, and graphology (handwriting and signature analysis) to customize support for the whole person. One story stands out: using Bach flower remedies to address emotional roots after Reiki progress stalls, leading to major improvement for a child with eczema. We close with somatic healing, nervous system care, Reiki for senior pets, and a powerful reminder that human connection still matters in the age of AI. 

Archit Srivastav is a multi-modality healer with a foundation in Reiki,

integrating Bach Flower Remedies to support physical, mental and

emotional well-being. With over 5 years of experience, he has helped

clients worldwide find lasting relief from pain, stress, and chronic

conditions. His approach combines compassionate guidance with

practical tools, creating space for deep healing and balance
