I have recently completed a Ho’opononopono Reiki Certification Program. This allows me to combine reiki with the healing power of forgiveness through the wisdom of Ho’oponopono, an ancient Hawaiian spiritual practice.
Reiki and Ho’oponopono are both powerful healing practices and by combining them we create a synergy that enhances emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being. Both effective on their own, together they offer a holistic approach to clearing and balancing energy and releasing emotional blocks that contribute to stress and disharmony.
Ho’oponopono works by guiding you through a process of introspection and forgiveness using the mantra,
“I’m sorry, Please forgive me, Thank you, I love you,”
to acknowledge and take responsibility for any negative thoughts, actions, or emotions that may have contributed to conflict or disharmony.
Some of the outcomes you can expect from a Ho’oponopono Reiki session:
1. Holistic Approach to Healing
Both Reiki and Ho’oponopono emphasize balance and harmony achieving this through different and complementary methods:
- Reiki channels universal life force energy to restore energetic balance. Reiki treatments clear the chakras and aura, promoting deep relaxation, emotional release, and vitality.
- Ho’oponopono clears unresolved emotions, limiting beliefs, and subconscious patterns through the practice of radical responsibility and forgiveness. Its core phrases—“I’m sorry,” “Please forgive me,” “Thank you,” and “I love you”—facilitate emotional cleansing and inner peace.
When combined, Reiki restores energetic flow, while Ho’oponopono dissolves the mental and emotional clutter that can hinder this flow. This integration fosters deep healing, releasing emotional burdens like resentment, guilt, and grief that disrupt energetic balance.
2. Everything is Connected: The Ripple Effect of Healing
Both practices share the belief that healing ourselves contributes to healing the world:
- Reiki recognizes the interconnected flow of universal life force energy. Healing is not just for the recipient but also benefits the practitioner and the collective energy field.
- Ho’oponopono teaches that by healing our inner world, we positively influence external circumstances. Taking responsibility for our emotions shifts collective energy, creating harmony in relationships and environments.
This shared principle reinforces that healing is not isolated but ripples outward, affecting all aspects of life.

3. Releasing Control and the Ego
Both Reiki and Ho’oponopono encourage surrendering expectations and ego-driven desires:
- Reiki works best when practitioners trust the universal energy to flow where it’s needed rather than directing it with personal intent. This allows for healing beyond conscious understanding.
- Ho’oponopono teaches radical responsibility for our perceptions, showing that external challenges often mirror unresolved inner conflicts. By acknowledging and releasing these, we open ourselves to deeper wisdom and transformation.
Letting go of the need to control or understand every aspect of healing allows divine intelligence to guide the process, often yielding unexpected yet profound results.
4. Effortless Healing without the need for analysis
Both practices facilitate healing without requiring analysis or verbal processing of past traumas:
- Reiki directs energy intuitively, addressing imbalances without needing to revisit painful memories.
- Ho’oponopono heals by addressing emotional energy in the present moment, without requiring conscious understanding of its origins.
This approach makes both practices gentle and effective tools for healing, without the need to articulate or revisit past experiences.
Combining Reiki and Ho’oponopono helps clear energy fields and release emotional stress, creating a deeper sense of peace and well-being. Together, they support personal growth, strengthen spiritual connection, and bring lasting healing.
