Honoring the space needed to heal, restore and release so that one may embrace the commotion without losing the quiet
commotion and quiet holds space for individuals and groups seeking (re)connection to self through Reiki healing energy.
Reiki is a centuries-old Japanese healing technique that promotes stress reduction and relaxation. It is a complementary form of therapy that works to address and balance one’s energy by using light touch and gentle hand placements on and around the body to guide the flow of energy, helping to remove blocks, and stimulate positive energy.
Through Reiki healing, commotion and quiet honors the many emotions we carry and provides a safe place to let it go and just BE.

About
Kelly Gilpatrick is a certified Reiki practitioner, with first and second degree training in Usui Holy Fire® Reiki.
Kelly began commotion and quiet in 2025, practicing Reiki in collaboration with CLEAR Holistic Therapies. Inspired by the poem Moon Song by Kate Baer, Kelly’s practice is motivated by the belief that we often need the commotion to appreciate the quiet, that life is so many things and therefore so are we. Kelly’s practice focuses on sharing Reiki energy to help relax and restore one back to self even amidst the ‘commotion.’
“Reiki gives me peace. It brings me back to self and into my body, calming my mind. It grounds me, while releasing emotions I may not have been facing. By bringing things to the surface, by feeling the emotions that need attention, I can move through them, honor them or release them. Reiki requires that I give myself space to practice. To restore. For so long, I did not give myself the space needed to restore. I hit a point in my life when I realized I had lost my true sense self. I was drowning and I needed a life jacket or at the very least a big pool noodle.
Reiki is my pool noodle.
I share my practice because I know I am not alone. I want to hold space for those that may need it, to help others honor what they are feeling and help to release what no longer serves them. I want to offer the permission we so often do not give ourselves, to just BE - beautiful and messy, dark yet full of light.” - Kelly Gilpatrick
