Masculine and Feminine Energy in the Body: What Reiki Teaches Us About Flow and Balance

When I work with clients in my healing space, one of the most powerful truths I share is this: we are all carrying both masculine and feminine energy. This isn’t about gender - it’s about energy in motion.
In Reiki and many other spiritual healing practices, we honor the sacred dance of masculine (yang) and feminine (yin) energy within the body. And when these two forces are in harmony, something incredible happens: energy flows freely, we feel grounded and connected, and our spiritual light begins to shine.
How Energy Moves Through the Body
Here’s what most people don’t know - masculine energy flows up the right leg, and feminine energy flows up the left leg. These streams spiral upward through the body and unite at the base of the spine, beginning their journey up the Sushumna Nadi - the central energy channel that runs along the spine. This is also where kundalini energy rises and activates the chakras.
As these currents rise, they awaken each chakra - from your root to your crown - creating alignment, clarity, and healing.
Understanding Masculine (Yang) and Feminine (Yin) Energies
Masculine energy is about structure, movement, doing, and focus. It governs logic, boundaries, and forward motion.
Feminine energy is about intuition, creativity, stillness, and receiving. It governs emotions, nurturing, and surrender.
When one of these energies becomes dominant or blocked, we feel it in the body:
Right leg pain or hip tension may indicate overactive masculine energy.
Left leg heaviness or low back discomfort may point to blocked feminine flow.
What Reiki Reveals During a Session
In Reiki, we gently invite both these energies to return to balance. During a Transformational Healing Session or Crystal Reiki Healing, I often feel where your masculine current is over-pushing or your feminine current is holding on.
We begin by grounding your feet - reconnecting to Earth energy - and gently opening the energy lines so both the right and left side of your body can flow in harmony. Reiki works with your chakras, your nervous system, and your subtle energy bodies to create a state of inner peace and energetic alignment.
To support this rebalancing, I also place specific crystals on the body - like red jasper for grounding, carnelian for emotional flow, or clear quartz to amplify balance. These stones act like energetic tuning forks - reminding the body of its natural rhythm, guiding stuck energy to release, and allowing harmony to return.
Clients often say they can feel the shift almost instantly - like something softens inside, and the breath gets deeper.

Try This at Home: Energy Flow Visualization
Sit with your feet flat on the floor.
Close your eyes.
Inhale and imagine gold light flowing up your right leg - strong, calm, clear.
Exhale
Now, inhale and feel silver light flowing up your left leg - soft, intuitive, and nurturing.
Exhale
See both energies meet at the base of your spine and spiral up your center, awakening each chakra, allowing the energy to burst out of the crown of your head.
You don’t need to force this - your body already knows how to return to balance. Sometimes it just needs support remembering how.

Final Words from My Heart
This path isn’t about becoming more masculine or more feminine - it’s about letting both energies guide you, support you, and help you rise. Your body already carries ancient wisdom. Reiki simply reminds it how to flow.
