For the dying person
- Creating a sacred space: transforming a room into a calm, sacred space using elements like candles, incense, crystals, and florals. This might involve cleansing the space or inviting protective and peaceful energy.
- Guided meditation and visualization: Leading the dying person in guided visualizations to help them reflect on their life, make peace with their journey, and prepare for their transition.
- Cord-cutting: If the dying person has unresolved issues, a ritual to "cut the cord" of attachment can help release them unwanted ties.
- Calling the elements: Rituals can call upon the four elements (earth, air, fire, and water) and the four directions to bless the transition.
- Ritual bathing: After a death, I can guide loved ones in the sacred practice of washing and anointing the body. Using essential oils and flower essences, this ritual is an act of deep reverence and can aid the family's process of saying goodbye.
For the grieving family
- Building an ancestral altar: I can help loved ones create a mourning altar with photos of the deceased and other meaningful mementos.
- The silent meal: Working with loved ones to share a meal in silence while setting a place for the deceased. This offers a powerful way to feel the presence of the departed and honor their memory.
- Releasing grief through fire: As a cleansing and transformative element, fire can be used to release grief. A ritual might involve writing letters to the deceased, then burning them in a fire-safe container to send the messages out.
- Grief talisman: A family might create a tangible item, like a beaded bracelet or a charm bag, imbued with intentions of love and remembrance. The doula can guide the family in charging the talisman with healing energy, creating a physical anchor for their grief.
- Connecting with the earth: To emphasize the cyclical nature of life and death, rituals might involve returning an offering to the earth. This could be burying a biodegradable container holding a letter or an object that represents the loved one, symbolizing their return to nature.

Reiki FAQs

The Japanese word Reiki, is pronounced “ray”/life-force, “key”/energy.
Reiki is a system of natural healing and self-improvement that originated in Japan in the early 1900s by Mikao Usui. During Reiki treatments, the practitioner works with the energy in the body. The goal is to reduce pain, decrease stress, and clear out any stuck energy.

My Story

Hi. I’m Megan Ratts.

Here with love from Atlanta, Ga. I found energy work during a difficult season in my life. I was looking for a holistic form of care as medications were starting to have aggressive side affects on my body. I felt incapacitated by years of struggling with anxiety and depression.

I found a women’s circle that offered reiki and sound healing. For the first time, I felt like I could tap into my authentic self. I was astounded by the difference I felt before and after the session. Since this experience I have dedicated my work to sharing the love of reiki and sound healing.

My life's mission is to gently aid others through self healing and to help restore self confidence and comfort. Offering authentic connection to help others feel supported. I focus on how energy directly influences our emotional, physical and spiritual well-being, helping clients to restore well-being and clarity.

I am a lover of live music, hiking, dancing, foraging, astrology, spending time with animals, art exhibits, and laughter in all forms.

Now serving Atlanta, Ga and beyond!

“My session with Megan was one of the most transformative healing sessions I have ever had. Megan is a highly gifted, intuitive healer who creates spaces fit for potent spiritual experiences. My session with Megan came at a time where I was feeling extremely lost, depressed and overwhelmed by inner child triggers that were surfacing. Megan allowed me to have my own personal experience during the Reiki session and was open to talk about what had come up for me during the healing. She also shared what she intuitively channeled on her end. Everything she shared resonated very deeply, it was exactly what I needed during that time. I’m incredibly grateful for Megan’s ability to create such a sacred space and all of the wisdom that she shared with me. I gained a lot of clarity that day and was able to integrate it in my present day experience. I cannot recommend Megan enough!”

“Megan creates a safe space where she swaddles you in sound and makes it abundantly clear that there is no right or wrong way to experience a sound bath. For me, personally, it feels as though my energetic circulation is increased and my entire system gets the help it needs to clear out or bring to the surface any stagnant or unneeded energy. This way, I can process and clear any blockages that may prevent a healthy energetic flow. Reiki with Megan is incredibly pleasant and effective. Megan creates a tender space to experience an energetic connection that leads you back to yourself and the energy of the universe. She intuitively hones in on what messages you may need to hear based on the reiki experience and articulates them in a way that is easy to understand and integrate into your daily life. For me, reiki feels like a dream. Connecting to this source energy through reiki with Megan helps me balance out energetic imbalances and take note of where extra support could be beneficial. Megan is clearly a natural healer and a trustworthy person to be in this sweet, vulnerable space with and I highly recommend her as a reiki practitioner.”
