Reiki Classes

Reiki energy is different from other forms of energy work. This method involves connecting you to life energy (ki) from the heavens (rei) which is divinely guided so that it can do no harm. It is a more gentle form of energy work that helps the physical body and emotional body soften and release. Reiki does not need to be directed for healing, this energy is divinely guided.
On an emotional level, Reiki helps a person release what they have been holding so they can open to laughter, life, and wonderment again. This facilitates healing by moving out carbon monoxide and lactic acid from the physical body creating a deep sleep healing state. For optimal health, ideally everyone would have a Reiki session once a week. By learning Reiki yourself, you will be able to work on yourself daily. The classes offer such a deep healing to each student.
My classes involve two different types of Holy Fire World Peace® Reiki, beginning with Usui Reiki and advancing with Karuna® Reiki. All the classes are based on the upgraded multidimensional Holy Fire World Peace healing energies for a more thorough clearing of soul level karma. This allows for healing on many layers of the aura each session for faster recovery from illness or injury.

Holy Fire World Peace® Usui Reiki


There are three levels to Reiki. Level I, II, & III/Master. I teach Holy Fire World Peace Reiki with traditional Usui Reiki foundation which is an excellent foundation for a healthy practice and loving way of being. By learning how to work on yourself first and have healthy practices, you will be able to harness this healing energy for soft tissue injury healing, releasing daily stress, improving digestion, and better sleep for yourself and others. Each level increases the flow of the Reiki Energy, read more below. Usui Reiki flows like water from a hose. The goal is to expand the flow rate over time so that the flow moves more like a fire hose than a garden hose. Practice each day improves the flow as well. Plants, animals, computers, all benefit from improving their function with Reiki. Start with level I and go play! Book now.

Holy Fire III® Karuna Reiki

Holy Fire World Peace® Karuna Reiki provides 8 new symbols to elevate the frequency of the healing energy work in two different levels. Karuna Reiki moves like a slow foaming energy on a deep cellular level and is the arch angels healing energy. Pre-req is completing Master Level Of Holy Fire World Peace® Usui Reiki at least 6 months before learning while also having at practiced on clients in a professional setting.

The first four symbols provide the healing anesthetic, laser focus, healing relationships, & grounding energies. These are helpful because this level repair subconsciously may meet resistance. The last four symbols offer more tools with Earth healing, peace, reclaiming power, and connecting to higher self/wisdom. You will receive eight new symbols to access ArchAngel healing in this level. Book Now.

In my classes I focus on a foundation in energy grounding and flow throughout the energetic core. This helps to protect the practitioner and maintain healthy energy boundaries. Each class has an opportunity to attend one practice post class as well as various Reiki groups for continued experience and learning. I am passionate about each participant having continued support for growth. Reiki Practice is a journey and I am happy to be your guide. Book now.

Holy Fire World Peace® Usui Reiki Level I includes ICRT book $168

With the Reiki level I class, you can expect to leave with a good sense of Reiki Energy, the origins of the Usui Reiki energy, and how to use the Reiki energy for healing.  We will discuss many different methods for meditations using the Reiki energy to deepen your self-awareness and techniques for self-healing and release.  This healing modality is opening the door to discovering the Divine compassion within.

In this level course you will walk away with:

Knowledge of each chakra, a history of Usui Reiki, connected to the flow of Holy Fire World Peace Reiki, understanding how to give self-reiki treatment, manual for further exploration of reiki energy, practice with traditional seated Reiki treatments for others, as well as homework for self-exploration of reiki flow and release.

Once the class has finished, I continue the practice work afterwards and facilitate Reiki discussions and practice groups for a small fee as we explore the universal divine energy in our own lives. These practice sessions are important for sharing our own experience with Reiki and expanding our use of this divine energy for compassionate action to heal ourselves and others. I ask for a $22 offering for overhead and time.

Reiki Level I is typically at 10am. Please allow 6-8 hours.  You will leave being able to access the healing Reiki energy for yourself and others, from pets, to plants, to family and friends.   You should have a good understanding of the origins of Reiki, different techniques, and experience receiving Reiki from others once we have finished. 
Bring water to drink, light lunch, a yoga mat & eye covering if you have one, a notebook and a protein-rich snack. Cost is $168 which includes the ICRT Reiki Manual. (Register by 14 days in advance with $68 deposit) Book Now.

Begin your journey to connect to your heart center in a powerful way.

Holy Fire World Peace® Usui Reiki Level II $222

Reiki Level II is 2 days starting at 10am.  Please allow 12 total hours.  Cost is $222 and level I is pre-req.  At level II you learn about reiki symbols, how to use them, and are attuned to their energy. There is the distance symbol, emotional symbol and power symbol. If time permits, we will not only draw each symbol, but also journey to each symbol for seeing the multi-dimensional story behind each symbol.  This class provides an upgrade in the power of the energy flow. The Holy Fire World Peace Energy offers deep healing where you need it most. I include my additional research and reiki meditations for practice. If you don’t have the manual yet, it is $24 to purchase.

Everyone will be partnered up with another student to practice distance sessions. We will learn and practice different techniques for a full session as well as for acute injuries such as burns and sprains. Best practices and the Reiki ideals will be reviewed to establish a good routine. Come ready to practice. Book Now.

Make time once a month to join for the monthly practice sessions to share your experiences and learn from others. I offer one practice class for free per class attended. Once you have completed level II you may apprentice on a few private sessions.

If you feel called to practice Reiki and learn more about Chakras and the Energy Body, Reiki classes are a great way to start!

I learned Reiki in 2002 with a weekend intensive. It is more intense than learning Level I and then waiting a few weeks for the energy integration and practicing self-treatments before doing level II. There can be some rather deep healing as your body adjusts to the higher vibrations of energy and you may experience a purge of old wounds. I experienced an old illness of tonsillitis for two days after my weekend intensive but then all cleared away with soup, hot teas and rest. This also coincided with a much needed release of old limiting beliefs during that time.

Dedication to self-care is essential if you would like to sign up for the full weekend intensive. If you feel very passionately about diving in for a quantum vibrational shift, please do sign up for both days. If you are more interested in taking the traditional path, feel free to sign up for either day separately. There is no right or wrong way to open the channel for Reiki Healing energy. Book now.

Holy Fire III® Usui Reiki Level III/Master $888 Include ICRT book

beautiful beauty blue bright
Dive into the journey within.

Level III is a process of connecting you to your higher self with a placement of the Reiki Master Symbol (Master) and learning to tune in to the energy for additional techniques for healing yourself and others. I prefer to divide level III into separate classes spread over three days. After a few months of integration and practice you make choose to learn to become a teacher with me.

Master level is more than the Usui Master symbol and practice with this new energy. We learn techniques for aura clearing and energy block removal. We also learn guided healing meditations, attachment removal, and more. This level gives even more tools and I prefer to spend time working on the mastery of these skills. We dig into moving meditations and more.

I love to provide time to practice with each one and then leaning into giving attunements. Practicing the cosmic orbit meditation ahead of time is super important as your awareness grows each time. We start with Healing Attunements and move through moving meditations as well.

These classes are like opening the door into yourself.  Many ways to learn and to heal yourself will be presented.  Some aspects will resonate more for you than others, It is important to honor this and allow for you own path to unfold. Book now.

Holy Fire World Peace® Karuna Reiki $1088 Includes ICRT book

Holy Fire World Peace® Karuna Reiki is a newer, more powerful Reiki energy. Combined with the trauma healing aspect of Holy Fire, Karuna Reiki connects healing as the cellular level. The founders says it from the archangels frequency. We are literally channeling the loving energy to help us shed the heavy, low frequency states. The energy flows in a different way, instead of like water from a waterfall, it moves more like a foam and expands on a deeps level. I have felt it move energy blocks on all levels of a person’s being for long lasting relief from pain and stuckness. My clients say this energy feels more powerful and gets them into Alpha dreamstate very quickly in either the first or second session. I found soft tissue injuries healing in 1/4 the time needed with Usui Reiki alone.

This class is three full days to cover the 8 new symbols and develop a relationship with each. I ask that we make a meeting time a month later to practice and connect with each one again as the energy of each has a different frequency and healing purpose. We will also learn to teach others to the Karuna Reiki energy. Book Now.

We dig into brain entrainment a bit in this course as well. The frequencies below represent the difference between the frequency flowing from each hand which lead to brain entrainment. Example 1056 htz and 1060 htz create a wave of 4 htz leading to theta state. Read more about Sound Therapy Brain states here.

Frequency rangeNameUsually associated with:
> 40 HzGamma wavesHigher mental activity, including perception, problem solving, and consciousness
13–39 HzBeta wavesActive, busy thinking, active processing , active concentration, arousal, and cognition
7–13 HzAlpha wavesCalm relaxed yet alert state
4–7 HzTheta wavesDeep meditation /relaxation, REM sleep
< 4 HzDelta wavesDeep dreamless sleep, loss of body awareness
Reiki is typically in the above ranges 0.5 Hz to 30 Hz.


Acupressure with Tuning Forks Class $125

In the course we will practice using an Otto Tuner (weighted tuning fork) at acupressure points for energy balance through the physical body for optimal Chi aka Prana or Ki. Please bring either a 128 htz, or 136.1 htz tuning fork for the class. I will provide the manual. We will spend time talking about contra-indications, things to consider, practices, and special points and routines. For class registration I will ask about health challenges you would like to learn to work on with this method for our
If there’s enough interest, we will gather and continue practice once a month-$20 offering suggested.

Healing Emotion Traps

woman in Seattle Train Station

Have you ever been stuck, like really stuck? Replaying a scene of an argument or breakup over and over again in your mind? These are emotional traps that form when we are children as a way to keep us from understanding the power within. I have wasted so many hours stuck in the same story for much of life. One of my story stuckness revolved around shame, my personal theme: Body-shaming.

Emotion Traps Discovered

As a young adult, I hit a point when I was reading my journals, reviewing my life, when I realized so much of it focused on shame of my weight and body size. I suddenly decided I didn’t want to focus on that anymore, I wanted to let go of the anguish I felt thinking about it. Like a switch flipped, I moved on to focus on other things. There was so much more to life now that that theme was gone from my storyline. I cleared part of the emotional trap of body shame. This was the beginning of my understanding of Emotion Traps.

This didn’t mean that I was immune to shame, no it still hurt when I heard fat shaming and other body judgements. I took that hurt and judged others but in reverse. What helped tremendously was the day I realized that some skinny people wished they could gain curves. I stopped reverse body shaming in that moment. A softening occurred in my heart as I learned there was no way to know what emotional traps surrounded others. This opened the door to compassion and curiosity about where others experienced shame and their own emotional stuckness.

With Reiki practice in my life, I began to notice areas of dense energy tended to be around the hips and shoulders way out in the energy field of each client. They would have certain hot spots near the different chakras where my hands would light up which appeared to tie in to different emotions. My first Biofield Tuning Session I received, revealed a tremendous amount of stuck shame from my childhood. This release gave me great insight into the potential for healing using Sound and Reiki to help move out these areas of dense energy storage, these Emotion Traps.

Experimenting with Clearing Emotion Traps

From Eileen McKusik’s Biofield Tuning Course

With Biofield Tuning training, I learned a map for these stuck emotions. Incorporating this map with both Reiki and Biofield Tuning helping clients identify and release the stuck emotions. Using Reiki, Chanting, Tuning Forks, these areas would clear and release physical body pain or heaviness. Clients would experience relief from old injuries, stuckness, and digestive trouble. Emotion Traps are the best name for these areas. Emotion Traps helps me better understand what, why, and how I keep seeing this pattern.

Understanding more with practice, I found that helping clients to participate in the release allows for a thorough healing that lasts longer. Using Holy Fire Reiki has helped as the energy has such a flame-like quality, dense energy simply melts away. I also ask clients questions about the size and shape of the dense energy. When they visualize it, they are able to more thoroughly let it go. We are each our own best healer I remember over and over again.

Merkabah Pattern Revealed By My College Roommate

Recently, I became super focused on these larger pockets of dense energy further out in the field. I keep finding them in the areas about 5 feet from the shoulder & hip on the right-divine masculine energy and left side- divine feminine. With meditation I asked for more guidance regarding these areas. What do they represent and how do I help clients release these more thoroughly?

Using Reiki, chanting, toning, and tuning forks to activate and clear these dense energy areas, I found clients were experiencing exponential clearing, lightening, and healing. This technique was repeatable, but I wasn’t quite sure exactly what I was doing until I saw a Biofield Tuning course on Digesting Emotions. Eileen called these dense areas Emotion Traps. What a perfect name. It is not my fault that I get stuck in certain emotions over and over again. My responsibility is to clear these areas from myself. From this place of growth i will teach others. My focus shifted to reminding everyone how to digest their emotions with kindness and energy for optimal health. I felt I was close to the target but still missing a part of the picture.

My path led me to visit with my friend Gretchen in Bellingham Washington. We met back before college on orientation to Young Harris College and decided to be roommates. Gretchen taught me so much about deep feeling and intuition. My left brain wasn’t fully ready to embrace all she was bringing into my awareness, but the door was opened. This visit she showed me her paintings about awakening and spiritual portals and healing. I saw clearly the pattern that I was working in my clients in one she painted with the merkabah in 3 dimensions. She had some paintings that accurately showed energy patterns of healing I see during sessions. This unlocked more understanding.

Sacred Geometry with Reiki Repair Aura

My eyelids have been flaring up with allergic dermatitis and eczema over the last several years, but none as bad as this year. Gretchen has been tending to her own organic farm and created her own skincare line. She gave me some soap and facial oil to help my skin. Her facial oil has been the only thing that gives my skin lasting moisture all day without any irritation. Check out her skincare here. So here we are 25 years later finally having a complete alignment despite living on opposite side of the country with a kids and careers in between.

Once I returned home I researched the merkabah. I recognized how the form fit over a person and could help establish a structure for their aura to stop collapsing. Activating the points on the merkabah at the emotion trap areas creates a flow structure, like a crystalline grid within our aura. Emotions no longer trap dense energy and accumulate stuckness that shrink the aura and keep physical bodies from healing. I now work these points on myself and my eyelids clear up. I’m so grateful for leaning in to synchronicities.

This has been a powerful pattern to work towards the end of the session once the body stress is cleared. The energy link up is guided by their higher self and my higher self at the highest frequency healing that is able to flow through. This discovery is so exciting! It’s showing up in several healing modalities at once, so I know that NOW is the time. Sacred Geometry applied to Reiki and Sound Healing is the way to help maintain a wide aura that is flowing continuously. This flow is the KEY!

Why is Aura Repair needed?

There are many reasons you may need aura repair. The Aura is the biofield, an electromagnetic field that surrounds things. From the Earth to the heliosphere around the sun, there are poles through which the energy flows. Humans, animals, and plants are the same. Even rocks and crystals have an electromagnetic field. The Aura of a human is composed of many layers as we have complex layers to our emotions & connections. With energy work modalities, practitioners work to strengthen the flow of energy and the surface tension of the field to help a person experience radiant health. When someone suffers from exhaustion, struggles to identify their own feelings, or is aware of too much outside of themselves (HSP), they likely need aura repair.

Feeling Fatigued?

Feeling exhausted after being around others, indicates a person has small rips or tears in their aura and unintentionally pours their energy out into others. In Aura repair, the rips and tears are smoothed over, reconnected, healed using sound or energy work. Reiki, Quantum Healing, Healing touch, or other Chi/ Ki moving practices to help restore higher frequency and intensity of flow through the energy field. The better the flow, the more resilient and flexible the field becomes allowing for it to move and push back rather than rip or tear.

When chakras are flowing well, the aura layers expand.

Need Headache relief?

When someone has frequent headaches, it is very possible that the flow is blocked around the bottom of their aura. The energy may be compressed due to stressors or shallow breathing which leads to energy stacking up the body with no release point. Then the hard stress energy pushes out around the head causing headaches. Ideally the grounding gives space for the stress to release out of the body into the Earth allow for best flow within the aura. With Aura repair, these pathways can be restored and the headaches resolved or reduced significantly.

Feeling Extra Sensitive?

Another symptom of the need for Aura repair is feeling others emotions or energy too intensely. Typically the main symptom of aura needing repair, this over awareness of others is a survival reaction which causes aura shrinkage. The smaller, distorted aura becomes more permeable in a very short amount of time. With repeat exposure to others becoming a learned painful experience, individuals may need days to recover their lots sense of self and energy. With Aura repair and training for proper grounding techniques, this type experience can be a distant memory.

Absorbing Others Emotions or Energy?

Are you ready to stop absorbing other people’s energy or emotions? When you can learn to create a nice wide grounding, you will amp your flow of energy. Then you release stress with ease. The energy flow through the lower back must go from a 2 lane highway into a 12 lane highway. This will allow your own healing energy to help you stay fully embodied and expansive way above and below you like a bubble. When your energy flow stops at your stomach or heart center then it becomes pinched and will either; push out the front (worry of future-anxiety) or the back (living in the past-depression) which leaves you open to absorb others energy or emotions.

When you connect with your center and have a wide ground connection for all hard, sticky, heavy, slow energy to discharge into the Earth, you will have much healthier sense of your own emotions and energy. This creates a fast current like a waterfall through your whole being. This flow will improve the strength of the Auras surface tension, again helping with healthier energy boundaries. You now pour your energy into yourself as you activate your flow through the solar plexus to fountain forward and then around your back to nourish your aura. Your aura has strong surface tension so you nourish you and stop absorbing. Book an Aura Healing Session to begin your healing Flow journey.

Energy Chord Clearing

A seasoned practitioner can also sense when old wounds are connected to another person or if someone has connected to old wounds. This is called energy chording. Many well-meaning friends and family chord into a person’s energy by telling them what they should do and focusing on their idea of the next step for other person’s path. With Aura repair, the invasive energy of others can gently be removed, the connection severed, so that a more healthy relationship becomes an option. Typically both parties feel relief with the repair as there was a burden. The responsibility for another’s happiness and well-being as well as surrendering a sense of self on the other end of things causes energy imbalance. Energy Chord clearing can be simple once you’re grounded and centered. Watch my video here. After Aura healing work, client’s begin to understand healthy boundaries from a whole new perspective.

When you have a good practitioner to help you have a strong, flowing aura with a good surface tension, you will feel energized, a stronger sense of self, and lighter. A good practitioner will also help you have a good idea of how to ground your whole energy body and all the aura layers. Check out the different modalities and reach out to Serenity Attunement for Aura Repair today for your free assessment. We are happy to help you sense how a strong flowing aura makes you feel.

The Power of Negativity

Let’s embrace negativity for a minute. That’s right, stare right at it and dig in a little deeper. There’s so much out there about being positive that I got swept up in eradicating negativity. Staying in the flow with Reiki, I erroneously thought I had to push away all negative thoughts, did you?

For a while, I made it my personal job to strap on my backpack of positivity spray and blast out all the negativity out from myself and others to keep everything shiny and clean. Rather than reach my goal of becoming a beacon of positivity, I found myself hyperfocused on exterminating any negativity or sadness. Rather than sitting with my anger, I pushed it away. My poor friends and family as I passionately preached about storm clouds and sunshine, while ignoring my own full-spectrum of emotions. For years I focused on fighting anger and rejecting outbursts from anyone.

Disinfecting Earth view- what a shift as I now embrace all challenges. Image thanks  Ajay kumar Singh from Pixabay 

My determination to “get rid of negativity” became judgmental in my push for perfection. Once I made time to pause, as the stress of COVID increased, I realized there was no way to push through these heavy emotions. So I learned to pause in that moment and instead allow myself to become the observer. I learned to sit with it and instead watch the flow of thoughts and emotions in order to learn what was underneath. In the darker depths of the flow.

Reiki Principals to the Rescue

In this forced quiet, where I could no longer talk about staying in playfulness without having my head bit off, I learned the power of silence. I came back to the Reiki Principle- be kind to all living things. To apply this I have to forgive myself for being angry and engaging in conflict. I was hurting, just in a different way from those around me. I needed to sit in my waves of sadness, anger, and frustration, alone and find the calm floating on the waves.

There’s a parable that resonates with me which tells of a young boy and his grandfather. The young boy is struggling with dark impulses. His grandfather tells him that inside each person is a wolf of light and a wolf of dark. The one that wins is the one that the young boy chose to feed. There was an Aha- moment. He didn’t say, kill the wolf of the dark” did he? He said choose which one you feed. 

We all have the light and dark within us. The key is to embrace them both and then chose which to focus on…

My conflicts were tests for me to apply my “wisdom” and be compassionate. So compassion is what I gave myself, and in allowing myself to pause, I found grace and peace. I could not rush myself or anyone else to hurry through their suffering. I could not rush myself or anyone to see that they were in charge of their experience. I could not rush myself or anyone to see that we all have the wisdom within us when we make time to get quiet. I had to simply get quiet, find my inner calm, and wait out the storm.

Embracing Conflict

As I dove deeper into my Reiki practice, I learned it’s actually about softening and embracing ALL emotions. Feelings are simply indicators of different levels of stress and emotional holding. With energy healing work I learned it’s not the power of positivity but rather the power of love that heals. So dig into negativity…sit with it… deep belly breath and exhale… why am I feeling this way? Then just wait for answer to come… That is the key.

Here’s another Reiki principal:

Be honest and clear. I must learn to face every part of the person in the mirror with love. That’s the most important thing. I no longer reject my negativity, it’s simply my clue to pause, breathe, and go outside to look up at the beauty. Go enjoy the trees, birds, and hum of nature. Go out and realign my energy flow. When I get frustrated or irritated, that’s my stress valve needing a release and nothing more… Being angry, sad, frustrated, resentful does not mean have I have less value, it simply means I need to pause and release, reconnect, and restore my flow.

Energy Balancing with Reiki and Breath-work

By embracing ALL emotions, I am now being honest. I no longer try to censor my Bad Mood. Instead, I see her and pause, and then I ask myself how I am hurting. Negativity has become my inner barometer of unintentionally allowing stress to build and boil into a storm. It’s my clue to go outside and ground with a reiki meditation. I breathe deep into my belly as I expand my awareness up and out , then exhale while releasing down into the Earth. All my stress can then flow out into the Earth and be recycled. I’m so grateful to my reiki practice to know how that feels.

The energy of this sweet town is quaint as there as many parks as there are little boutiques for everything you can imagine: clothes, school supplies, shoes, books, baked goods, and more. Each purchase you make helps a local family which in turn helps this community stay abundant and enjoy the beauty of their country.

While staying here I was amazed at the energy that flows through each of the shop keepers here. Most everyone feels very centered, relaxed, and filled with loving energy. It’s such an amazing feeling to explore and sense the love of this country from an energy healing perspective.

Activity order subject to change based on weather.

What to know/bring:

•  Costa Rica is equatorial with sunshine from 6am to 6pm, so all driving will occur between those hours. Direct sun is very strong, take precautions as needed.

•  Arenal Área features at least 12 different hot springs areas, Canopy tours, ziplines, and rappelling excursions. Our Thurs excursion will be at one of the original Hot Springs park Tabacon Hot Springs, which has a resort hotel of $550 & up overnight. These springs are in the jungle along hiking trails,& worth enjoying for the pictures opts, adventure, and fun. 

The opt add-on over night is located at a more quiet, private Paradise Hot Springs established in 2011 with lovely large hotel rooms for $200/night. They have 7 different temperature pools, waterfall, and swim up fresh juice bar. 

• There’s a fast lab for a 1-hour COVID test required to re-enter the U.S. It’s a quick walk 1 block away, on the square across from Alajuela City Hotel, and opens at 6:30am. There’s also one at the airport.

• Bring a journal, bathing suit, small towel, water shoes, and walking shoes in addition to your summer clothing. I recommend a long sleeve, light jacket and pants for cooler nights. Bug spray and sunscreen can be brought or purchased locally (pack liquids and lotions under 3oz if doing carry-on.)

• Use a local ATM to draw out cash in Costa Rican currency – colones – or pay with an international (no-fee) credit card at most places. Check with your bank and credit card company to ensure your cards allow international transactions with no fees. If not, you may chose to bring cash to exchange at the local banks. The hotels all accept US dollars, while restaurants & shops typically accept colones or credit cards.

Holy Fire III® Reiki Experience

a-pile-of-flowers-on-fire-near-the-floral-carpet

This past few weeks I upgraded to the Holy Fire III® Reiki frequency for my Karuna® Reiki Sessions and what a difference! The energy from the Holy Fire symbol is intensely hot which really helps clients and myself to bring awareness to different parts and layers of the body where there is tightness. The heat of the energy grows as the flow intensifies and then it moves stuck energy or emotions far faster than ever before. I will say Holy Fire energy seems to melt the hard energy blocks quickly. This energy is a powerful level up for the Love energy for healing.

HOLY FIRE heals all over

With Holy Fire Reiki meets each person where they are and helps for an all over energy shift. This doesn’t focus in on one part of the person but rather addresses the whole person. The whole includes all their layers of growth on energetic and spiritual layers. I haven’t seen it push anyone past where they should be causing any type of discomfort in the client later. I have seen that with many different modalities, but not with Holy Fire III® Reiki. This seems to encompass the whole person so that the is far less resistance. I am amazed as the possibilities for release both on soul trauma levels and ancestral trauma levels.

My personal experience with Holy Fire III® Reiki has allowed me to expand my awareness of my grounding and being a channel of the energy while my hands, eyes, and voice are like conduits that help connect them to the high frequency state of being. This has really helped me to recognize when I am interfering with the flow and shift and correct my posture and then allow for their higher self to guide their experience. The less I direct, the better the flow. How lovely is that?

Reiki Healing Qualitites

Regarding the healing qualities, I remember working on a soft tissue injury like a twisted ankle and it would take about 30 minutes of reiki treatment for the injury to heal with level I&II. When I received the Master level it would take about 10-15 minutes. Then with Karuna Reiki within 7 minutes a twisted ankle would be resolved. Now with the Holy Fire III® Reiki energy I am seeing shifts within minutes. My old deep burn (I neglected to take time to treat immediately upon receiving the injury) that was just scabbing over healed up within a day. It amazing and I cant wait to see what happens next!

Currently, I am working on expanding my energy shift at all levels before I teach a class with this energy. It has been three weeks since my upgrade, and I have led many circles to have Holy Fire III® Reiki experiences. How lovely that have been for all of us. I am excited to continue expanding my spiritual and energetic growth for benefit of my clients and family. These are exciting times!

Reiki is Energy Medicine

Energy medicine is finally getting the attention that it deserves as a powerful catalyst for healing. Energy medicine includes any modality that helps someone to connect to and expand their subtle energy body. Energy medicine can be Reiki, Aura Healing, Healing Touch, Pranic Healing, Quantum Healing, the Reconnect, and Acupressure or Acupuncture. There is also Sound Therapy that helps to expand the energy body. Because so many people are raised believing all that they are is flesh and bones, they restrict their energy to fit inside that boundary. In reality we a huge energy beings that expand outside of the physical body several feet in every direction.

Our lifestyles are also so incredibly hectic causing our energy to cycle back on itself creating stress, inflammation, and anxiety loops. Many people live inside a box and rarely spend time outside. You can see the emphasis on larger and larger houses rather than larger yards. This disconnect with the frequency of the Earth and plants leads to eczema, allergies, auto-immune disorders, and more over time. We have forgotten how to ground release energy by connecting to the Earth.

Most people do not ever connect their energy body fully into their physical body except for during dancing, singing, or orgasm. It’s important to feel safe in one’s body most of the time rather than just a few minutes of the day. With guidance everyone can learn how to breathe and exhale releasing stress and tension from their physical bodies down into the Earth. This release allows their natural healing life energy to flow powerfully through their whole being once again. This is where energy medicine will empower everyone to heal and be healthy.

With a little practice before sessions and after sessions, I teach my clients to connect into their body and ground into the Earth, centering themselves with their awareness. Many highly sensitive people (HSP) or empaths are constantly focused on others feelings which causes them to ignore their own body. Once an HSP/empath learns to focus on their own body, they learn how to release stress, tension, and heal by staying fully present in their own body. This is how to release other people’s stuff.

Through practice, my clients gain the ability to reclaim their power with a quick exhale and release of feelings that they are holding. With this practice, healthy boundaries return. By paying more attention to feelings and breathing them out, each person can feel fully present, safe, and strong in their bodies. The energy shifts and becomes stronger as one learns how to check inside and trust ourself before agreeing to do something. This centering allows for better expression also. This is self love and is super powerful. A beautiful energy flow and large, balanced energy field is a result.

Holding emotions in is fairly common. Due to judging these emotions on some level as bad or painful, they are stored in the physical body typically in the spleen, pancreas, or liver. This leads to poor digestion and tight muscles in the surrounding area. This causes a buildup of lactic acid, carbon monoxide and other cellular waste that leads to pain and inflammation. How do we learn to stop holding?

First we need a reclassification of emotions from “bad or “painful” to the most basic of sensations, ex- exciting, calming, comfortable, or uncomfortable, then we are able to release judgement and observe our emotional reactions to situations and let them flow out. With Reiki, acupressure, Quantum Healing, biofield tuning, and other energy work modalities, we bring the focus back to the body, so clients feel a deep release. This release and flow of emotions is super healthy and is almost like a remembering of how we all naturally released stress as children. Over time trauma from judgement from family led to an unhealthy holding, not knowing when someone would yell or be angry. with the energy reset and reconnect, a grounding connection is reformed and the hard stress flows out of the body and energy field. This allows a body to function at a most efficient, flexible, and healing way.

Other Ways Energy Medicine Can Help You Reclaim Your Power

Powerful force in the fires of passion

You know how angry some people can make you feel? They seem to know exactly how to push your buttons with laser focus and precision. They can hone right in on things that make you rage and fire up in just a few words? Typically the people will be your siblings, lover, spouse, children, or best friend. They know what can really get you boiling and how to pull your strings. Pause just a second. Think about that saying,…they are literally pulling your strings.

What is helpful to realize, is when you are fiery mad and very passionate, your blood pressure gets super high, your adrenaline pumps through your body, and your heart beats super fast getting you ready for a fight. If you don’t run and burn off that adrenaline, then your body is stuck trying to manage the effects of all this fuel being amped up to power you through the fight. Your subtle energy body is tucked up into your center, typically in the solar plexus chakra. That person is literally pulling your strings, pushing your buttons, and controlling you, and you are letting them.

How do I know this? Because I was raised by Mr. Road-Rage himself. Oh yes, I would drive around completely offended that someone hit their brakes, flipped me off, cut me off, or made a face at me. My father tail-gated terribly and was the most aggressive driver, and I hated it. I finally found my voice at 18 and told him to pull over and let me walk the 2 hours home because I did not want to die today. Then guess what? I did that same exact thing…

Everyone on the road had power over me. The day I was a passenger and made a face at someone who was all ragey over us pulling into the center lane at an intersection when she was in the blind spot and trying to pull into the same lane, was the day I realized I needed to heal. She pulled a gun on us and chased us all over. I realized then that I needed to never get angry at another driver, never react with anger, and certainly never make a face . I could have gotten my friends killed as this woman let her anger drive her into rage and chase us through Atlanta. We finally escaped by pulling onto I-20 and racing off.

This was a huge turning point for me. No matter how bad I thought I had it fighting with traffic, there was certainly others who were far more fed up and at the edge of sanity. And they had a car and possibly a gun. This also changed the way I looked at my life. I could breathe, and calm down, and not take things personally and no longer be part of the problem. Who knows what someone was going through-I needed to show kindness. Reiki taught me this every time I practiced.

Overtime I learned to apply filter that to work relationships, patients, and finally family. With Reiki practice, I began to understands how much I hurt myself by staying angry or even allowing myself to get there. It was a slow transformation to make it all the way back to family, but it has changed my life. I no longer take anyone’s behavior or mood personally. I finally have been able to hang out with my father and not take his anger personally and instead ask him how he is hurting. This has helped him to realized how he is standing hurts his back or his feet and to take better care of himself in the moment. It took me years to get there, but it changed everything about our relationship. The last key to untangle my power from my motional family ties was Biofield Tuning. It literally tuned up my energy so I no longer had these walls up, so that I was no longer holding.

In these pandemic times of fear and isolation, this has helped me tremendously to navigate the dicey waters of social media. I do not take anyone’s comments personally, most of the time. In the beginning of the pandemic, I worked hard on social media to try and open up discussion and engage in intelligent debate. But things over time devolved into simply angry people who are hurting and everyone else being wrong. It has been very upsetting. I am learning discernment. There’s times to simply move past the discourse and say nothing. These times are tough but the most unifying, universal truth is love. I return to Reiki to rebalance myself along with chanting. So powerful good.

We all need to touch-base and connect with friends and family and reaffirm that we love each other. It’s super important to not allow emotions, politics, anger to divide us. Instead, when you start to notice your are beginning to feel angry, pause and instead consider it is your souls way of saying it is time to play. Enough is enough. No more work. Time to go play.

If you are having trouble making time for play, likely you need a tune-up. Reiki with Sound Therapy and/or Biofield Tuning may be just what you need. Call or email me to set up your session today. 706-207-4253 or healingwithangels77@gmail.com

Tortured No More- How Energy Work Helped Me

As a highly sensitive person, I have spent much of my life worrying what others think of me. It’s a super painful way to live because I feel others emotions so well. After years of pain, eczema and poor digestion, I have finally learned how to feel safe despite the intensity of all the emotions around me.

Ha ha, just kidding. Although there are certainly time I have wished for this crystaline armor to protect me from others, I learned how to power up my field and become literally this impermeable to others judgements and heavy emotions. Through the most powerful force in the universe….. LOVE.

Yes, that’s right. It’s free and universal to all creatures and from an unlimited source. Love, Love, Love. We all need it, we all want it, and guess what, we all are built, designed, and encoded with the ability to harness and amplify this one most powerful healing thing.

How do you start to tap into this a power up? Through self-love. Pure, unconditional, unadulterated, self-adoration, and awe at the amazing power your have in the very smallest particles of your being. You are amazing, powerful, and incredible. How do you do it? How do you walk, breathe, and play so well? Its truly a miracle we are even alive and the body systems all work if you think about it.

Self-love, that all? How easy right?

Well, no actually. I had to start in the very beginning with unwinding all the preconditions I had learned throughout my life that I had to meet to be loved. Perfect hair skin, clothes, body- nope. Meditate with reiki and breathe love into all those painful memories of judgement about my body, hair, clothes, breathe love into those awkward times when I felt everyone was looking at me and judging me.

Guess what some probably were, but their opinion is not important. I can never be loved by everyone-breathe and radiate reiki into those lessons forward and backwards. I can never please everyone. I have to learn to be myself 100% and please myself, then I can help others without hurting. This article on “The Art of Not Giving a Shit” (yes, I googled that) helped me so much the last few days. Please read this link. SO helpful. Some people will hate me for being too friendly, some will hate for being too sunny, but that’s ok because as long as I am loved by me, then I can be ok without their approval- Reiki all over that and release with breath and energy work.

Guess what, the more I unwind all these limiting beliefs, the more I unkink the flow of the most abundant resource of all of the universe- LOVE. This has taken me years. It has been hard but so helpful. The more I dig in, the more opens for me. And then everything else that I wish to create falls into place.

Did I do this over night? Of coarse not. I have had several teacher, mentors, and I still have them now despite being one myself. You know why? Because I am human and as a human I will fall down into the same hole of anger or fear, until I have learned the lesson in every way possible. These holes though, they get smaller, and what energy work has taught me, is how to see that hole sooner, side step it, or recognize when I have one foot in it, so I may back up and not fall all the way in. You can do it too! Set up appointment with me today. You deserve it.
