Speaker:

Hi. What's up? Oh, I am so excited to be doing these podcasts and I think that taking a minute in this energy that you're gonna be talking about. Um, if we just take a minute, settle ourselves here together and invite in the reiki energy.'cause we are gonna be talking about reiki, but let's invite Reiki in together. Okay. Take a breath and just get here. Now I'd say let's invite the energy of the astrology in, but I think that's already here.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, it's here whether we like it or not.

Speaker:

So it's, it is, it's a lot. And, um, maybe, maybe just. Jump in there and start talking about the astrology.

Speaker 2:

Okay, so as we're recording this right now, we both know, but maybe everybody else doesn't know that we just hit a new moon in Aries solar eclipse. Big energy. It's energy that I've been talking about forever and it's here, and I'm like lighting up with energy right now. Just tapping into what that means because it's, it's like phoenix energy. Every rebirth, a renewal, but it's also a closing of a chapter. This Aries, Libra Axis, north Node, south node. Um, I won't get too much into it'cause I don't wanna lose everybody, but this started in 2023, this energy, and this is the final moon phase in this axis eclipse energy before we start a new one, which is gonna be in Pisces and Virgo, which is a whole other story. We won't talk about that today, but it, so it's like a big huge closing and a new beginning happening at the same time. And that can be overwhelming. Yeah. Because it's like we haven't officially closed that chapter yet. Like we're still kind of working with the energy. We haven't started the new one. We're still starting that energy, but they're meshing together and it's very muddy energy right now, and it feels so big. We know that there's so much coming. But it's just tapping into that and accessing how to use it.

Speaker:

Right. So, right.

Speaker 2:

And that's just today?

Speaker:

Yeah. That's just today. Well, and you know, like, it, it does have my, my little fiery side going a little bit. I'm not gonna lie with my mm-hmm. Aries Moon. I am just going like, woo-hoo, let's go. Like, and at the same time, it's making me a little, um, hypersensitive to. I should say more hypersensitive.'cause I'm already hypersensitive. Right. But flipping a switch a little bit and um mm-hmm. Yeah. I'm like, what the heck? Okay. You know? Yeah.

Speaker 2:

The fire's being ignited pretty much today.

Speaker:

Well, you know, I'm wearing some blue. I had my blue glasses on before, but they were just a little too dark for this. But I have on some blue jewelry and some things to just kinda, yeah, call the allies that way to. Come down. Yeah. And the, the fis of this. I

Speaker 2:

like that. Yeah. I guess I dressed in blue too, and Yeah. Yeah. I didn't even realize, maybe that's

Speaker:

why I have my neuro spicy shirt on. I was gonna wear my Capricorn, my hollow Capricorn shirt, but I was like, mm-hmm. No, I don't think we need that one today. So, yeah.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah. That's a lot. Capricorn and Aries together. You live with it every day, but,

Speaker:

well, so, okay, so podcast talk in astrology a little bit about what's going on right now, but like there's an aspect that. You bring into our classes, into your reiki sessions is that you bring the astrology paired with the reiki.

Speaker 2:

Right? It's pretty much in everything I do, and I don't think I realized that until recently, how much I work with the astrology. I. On a day-to-day basis. But yeah, so as far as like when we're planning out our schedule, planning on our class schedule, going over the calendar, we did it the other day and the first thing we look at is what is the astrology? Is it a good day to have a class? Is it a good day to have a workshop? Where do we need, um, like the energy,

Speaker:

what's Well, yeah, because that affects how people take in the information. It affects even the, even the, um. It, the interaction of the people in the class'cause. Yep. You know, and then of course for us, I mean, not to be selfish, but it certainly affects us too. Yeah. And so it may not be the best, best day for me to be, you know, sharing, you know, loving light when I'm a little bit, you know

Speaker 2:

Yeah. On fire.

Speaker:

Yeah. You know, I mean, it's, yeah. It can be a little bit much for people, you know what I mean? So, um. Mm-hmm. I, I think that's an important aspect to look at as, you know, how we plan out the class, that that is a consideration. Like there are things that go in behind the scenes of our classes. Mm-hmm. I don't think that people understand, you know? Right. It's not like teaching the, it's not teaching the same thing over and over again.

Speaker 2:

No. We teach it a different way every time. Really. Depending on the people in the class. Yeah. What they need, their personalities. We use their astrology and their human design.'cause everybody learns different. Right. And everybody needs different information. We take, we teach the same basic information every time, but how we present it and how we interact with it. And have them interact with it. Changes each time.

Speaker:

Yeah. Well it has to because, you know, people are the unknown element in our classes. You know, the students are, and I mean that in a good way. Yeah, there, there always seems to be a theme because we take the time to, um. When we set the calendar for the classes and we're setting it around the astrology, at that same time, we're calling in, inviting in the people who need to be there.

Speaker 2:

Yep.

Speaker:

And so, and that

Speaker 2:

energy. Yeah.

Speaker:

Yeah, yeah. Which is, you know, I mean, I think it's cool. I think it, I think it delivers. Uh, exactly the class that, that the person, the participants, all the participants need. They get the love and support or the challenge, you know, sometimes there's a challenge. Yeah. They get that they're, um, exactly what they need to bring them along their reiki path. Mm-hmm.

Speaker 2:

It really is, I love this word magic. I use it all the time, but it's magic the way the energy comes together for us and for them. Yeah. Yeah. Now I wanna do a science experiment in my head. Because we have themes for the classes. I wanna go back and see which moon phases were each class and what the theme was. Does that make sense?

Speaker:

Yeah. I think you need to report back, I think.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker:

My science brain is going experiment time without divulging the names, you know? Yes, absolutely. Of the, of the folks, you know, protect the innocent, whatever that was from that show. Yep. Yeah. Okay. So. So our classes, I think, have an evolution or a, um, what do I wanna say? They're, you know, you, you talked about the magic of it, but it's like an, it's organic almost in the. Composition of how the information is presented, but it's also an evolution, I think, because the more so, the more we teach reiki, the more and the more, I mean, we use it every day. We use it in everything like you, you know, it's one of the spices of life. Like you use astrology and reiki, uh, and crystals, and I use. Um, feng shui and human design, and of course crystals. Um, but like how we, and art, I use art too, but how we add that to the spice of our lives. But that comes across in the teaching too, and it also creates an evolution. Um, you know, we talk about the evolution of reiki and that usi like, bless him. I love him for what he. You know, has brought to the energy world and the reiki world. Mm-hmm. Uh, he most likely was not the first person doing reiki, however he looked at it that, um. It needed to be done differently. Yeah. You know, and then, so he did his thing. He brought it out into the world, shared it the way he was sharing it. Mm-hmm. And then the people who came after him kind of tweaked it a little bit, you know, like everybody thinks, oh no, you have to keep it a certain way. And yeah, the frame. Work of it. The, the, there's a word I'm searching for, but it's like the overall structure, the essence of what reiki is. The grounding principle of it is there, but it is evolving and it's expanding. Mm-hmm. And it's growing. It's adapting for our world, our culture, and where we need it. Right? Yes.

Speaker 2:

Yep. Because our needs are not the same societally as they were when was it? A hundred years ago? Yeah. When the sui,

Speaker:

yeah, yeah, yeah. It's a good bit ago.

Speaker 2:

Mm-hmm.

Speaker:

You know, so, you know, the, the, the movement or the evolution, um, to Holy fire. Through ICRT wasn't something that William created, William Rand created, he didn't create holy fire. It was given to him in a divine way through some channeling, and it was directional. It was to say something has to change here. And the, and our use of words like God, Jesus, and Holy Spirit mm-hmm. Have to change too, because we use those in, in. Uh, holy Fire, Reiki. Mm-hmm. But it's not religious. It is spiritual nature, but it's not religious. And so that was a big evolution of Reiki. Mm-hmm. The holy fire.

Speaker 2:

Oh, absolutely.

Speaker:

And then come Covid time, there was another evolution that happened with, you know, expanding to the online format and. We've taken it in a different step too. Mm-hmm. Like, so we go through all the training, we take all our different reiki classes, we continue to teach, but then we say. Okay. There has to be a hybrid because all kinds of minds, we're looking at people's astrology, we're looking at human design, looking at ourselves, we're looking at ourselves and going like, this is so much. Mm-hmm. I wanna keep, you wanna keep their attention. And help them on their path. Yeah. So how can we do that more effectively? And we make a hybrid class. Mm-hmm. Where we send out information, we shorten the in-person time, but we commit to the growth of the student over the course. So I'm just, you know, like in my mind I'm like, Ooh. Kind of like, what's next? What's coming? Right. Yeah. You know?

Speaker 2:

How is it gonna evolve from here?

Speaker:

Well, it definitely is evolving, so. Mm-hmm. Like I, I feel it almost. Yep. You know, like, okay, I wonder what's coming. No, I

Speaker 2:

agree. And right on track with the astrology, the evolution of us as a species, I feel like is happening now and energy work is part of that. So how are we bridging the energy work of the ancients and, you know, the assu. And even the Williams. Yeah. How are we bridging that with what we need now and what, where we're going in the future? Right. Because, you know, whether we like it or not, technology and AI are, are here, they're a thing. And a lot of times that doesn't, doesn't meld we feel like with the spiritual world, but it has to and like that's my opinion.

Speaker:

Well, it does. I took my first class in two thou. I had to go back and look. Mm-hmm. I always have to. 2009. Mm-hmm. Okay. And that's a drop in the bucket as far as the timeline goes of what you're talking about. But the teaching style from 2009 to today is very different.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker:

And the, you know, the technology and all that kind of stuff is part of it, but it's also in, I think our cellular structure. It's in our. Astrological structure.

Speaker 2:

Yeah. In our DNA It

Speaker:

is.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker:

Yeah. So we've got some things coming up. Mm-hmm. Um, we're gonna be offering some classes that we haven't offered before.

Speaker 2:

Yeah. I'm excited. The UNA master is the first one. Yeah. Uh, that one's on April 12th as we're recording this, uh, in two weeks. And Karuna is new to me. I just took my Karuna with you. You know, recently, and it's every time I take a new class with reiki, um, it's almost like, how much better can I get? How much more reiki is there? Like, do I need this class because we are chronic learners, we're chronic class takers.

Speaker:

Well, where is that in our astrology? That would be our Capricorn nature. Would it not?

Speaker 2:

Yes, yes. Always wanting to do more and learn more, and there's never enough certifications. It's also like an A DHD thing. You never think that you know enough, so you're always trying to do more. And same with the Karuna and the animal. Reiki are the ones that we're teaching this month, the new ones and ones that we've been working with a lot lately. Same thing. I'm like, do we need this? Other certification. Do we need this reiki? And you've been working with Karuna for a while now. Mm-hmm. But it's still kind of fresh to me. And the answer is yes. Everyone adds a different flavor.

Speaker:

Okay. So what, what does Una say to you? Like, let's, let's, can we jump down the Una rabbit hole for a minute? Mm-hmm. Because

Speaker 2:

absolutely. Because, so immediate impression when I took Karuna was that it connected me, I wanna say to the angel round, but it's more than that. It connected me up even further into the highest heavens. We talk about the highest heavens in Reiki class. Yes. And before it was, I'll give a really good example. When I would meditate. When I meditate, I visual, I'm very visual. I see things. So before when I would meditate, I would have to bring myself up to that place. I would have to go over the light bridge and ascend myself into the highest heaven. Now it's just, it's there all the time within me. I can access it. It's not a place outside of myself, it's, it's here with me. And Karuna kind of gave me that instant access to it, I guess. But I think that's about the self-love and the compassion, opening it within you. Within yourself and not looking for it outside.

Speaker:

Yeah. Yeah. And for me, you know, Karuna, when I took it, I took it because of the job that I had. I was, I was working in hospice and, you know, reiki of compassionate action in a hospice setting, like right. That's a no brainer. It is a no brainer. Um, and it, and it. Offered such a gentle way to be with the people that I was with, and it was helping me be able to do the work that I was doing because, you know, that's not some easy stuff. No. Um, but I am not that visual person and I, uh, I am the. The person of action, like, you know, I'm out the door before we say let's ride. You know what I mean? I'm like, okay, let's go. You know, if you start to say, let's go, like, I'm like, okay. Mm-hmm. And so what Karuna has done for me in more recent times is it's given me the opportunity to take action for myself, my heart. Mm-hmm. Um, and to advocate for my own feelings to help me heal those places that I didn't wanna go, because, you know, they weren't dark and twisty. So it, the beauty of Karuna to me is. That it is that action oriented. I mean, not that OSU or Holy Fire isn't, and by the way we do our Una style is the holy fire Una. So the fire's there. Yeah. Um, but it's, I wanna say, you know, it, it, it's the, oh gosh, words of my grandmother just came into my head. It's the firm hand in the velvet glove. You know what I mean? It like, yeah. I like that it takes it in a, in a softer way, but it, it gives you, you know, action oriented steps in my mind to, to do it. And I think students get overwhelmed when they look at, you know, well, should I take Una? You know, there are eight symbols, you know? Well, yeah. There's a lot, there's a lot of work to do in that.

Speaker 2:

Mm-hmm.

Speaker:

You know, but

Speaker 2:

the benefit of it work to me. Challenge equals growth. Yeah. Struggle equals just magic. And I don't think that people think about it that way enough. So the hard stuff leads to the good stuff. It's working through it. And maybe that's my Capricorn Saturn. I

Speaker:

was just gonna say, your Capricorn is going again because you know Yeah.

Speaker 2:

Mm-hmm.

Speaker:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

Yeah. The hard stuff is what makes the good stuff.

Speaker:

Right. And that's your generator in the human design, you know? Okay. Because you've got, uh, you get something and you have to stay the course until it's done. Mm-hmm. That's generator. They are the work, they are the workhorse of the, of the world. Okay. You know, that tracks Yeah. It totally tracks. You know, like when I give people's human design and I go, oh yeah, well, yeah. That's you. Yeah. Okay. Mm-hmm. Tell, and when I explain Seuss. Explain it in different terms to people of like, you know, I have to give you a this, or like, if I ask you a choice, give you, you know, I don't say, Elaine, where do you wanna meet? Right? Because you're like, uh, you freeze. You're like, there are too many choices. I don't know which way to go. How am I gonna get there? La la la. Mm-hmm. You know, if I say, do you wanna meet? At this coffee place, do you wanna meet at the park? Mm-hmm. Give you two choices. You pick one or the other. So that's, that's the style of that. But coming back to Una, I think Una says in that, I'm gonna meet you exactly where you are.

Speaker 2:

Mm-hmm.

Speaker:

And I am gonna soften, soften the healing for you. It's still gonna be rough, it's still gonna be a lot of work.

Speaker 2:

Mm-hmm. But I'm gonna hold your hand through it. That's what I, I get the image of. Yeah.

Speaker:

Yeah. In that velvet glove.'cause you know, velvet is really nice.

Speaker 2:

Mm-hmm.

Speaker:

So, thank you, grandma.

Speaker 2:

Oh, I like that.

Speaker:

Yeah. I like

Speaker 2:

that a lot.

Speaker:

Yeah. Yeah. Um, okay, so that's Una. Now there's this other,

Speaker 2:

the animal reiki,

Speaker:

the animal reiki.

Speaker 2:

I love Anna Reiki. I love reiki. But they're so different and they hit in different places. And when we were. I was supposed to take my Karuna first, just side note. And then you're the one that invited the fact that maybe I need to take the animal reiki first. And you hadn't even taken the animal reiki yet. Mm-hmm. But you have, you just have this knowledge that drops into your head. And we've talked about this before. You're like a key that opens up doors for other people and you don't know where the knowledge comes from. It just comes in. Same thing happened, just you pretty much said, you know, I think you need to take the animal reiki first. And I'm like, no schedule to take the crooner reiki. Like, I feel like that's what I should do. And then sure enough, I took the animal reiki first and. It needed to be done that way.'cause the animal reiki brings you, it grounds you. And I needed that grounding before I took the Karuna class. Mm-hmm. Because Karuna brings you back up and, mm-hmm. Yeah. I don't even know how to explain it. How, how would you explain, explain animal reiki the feeling of, okay.

Speaker:

Well, so for me it was very different. You know, I went into it very sc skeptical. Mm-hmm. I. Yeah, because I've been doing reiki for years. I've been doing reiki on animals for years, you know? Mm-hmm. I, I did canine massage and I did all sorts of things, you know, and, um, I've hel, I've helped dogs transition and, you know, I'm, I'm that person in the neighborhood that people call me when their dog has fallen and they can't get up, and, you know, all of a sudden the dog can get up or whatever, you know? So there are things that have always happened. With animals. So I'm like, yeah, I don't, I don't need that. You know? Mm-hmm. I don't need that. And when I went to Sedona to the retreat, I met some people there. And you know, I, they did one of the animal reiki, one of the sessions was about animal reiki, and we did this meditation and I was kind of blown away by it. And I'm like listening and I'm going, well, you know, maybe there's something that I need to learn here in this animal. Reiki. Yep. And so. For me because, you know, one of the, one of the teachings in there is, hey, got newsflash, uh, human beings are animals. And, uh, they fall under that realm. But it was, it was the tree. It was the tree of life. It's the energy of nature. Mm-hmm. That has me, like, I've always loved nature, but there is a way I walk in nature now that, huh. I, I, I don't know if I even have a word for it, because it's like, like you said, I just know stuff, like stuff just drops into my head. I don't know where it comes from. I'm not out there seeing visions or anything like that. I am very much of this plane. Mm-hmm. You know? But like, I feel like I'm a, a collector of information and so stuff comes in. So when I'm walking in nature, it's not like I'm talking to the trees, but I'm kind of talking to the trees, like, oh, you know, like I feel, I feel them. I feel them in a way that, um, lights me up, helps me on my day. Um. And I think that's part of the animal reiki, you know, some of the meditations and things. Mm-hmm. Experiences that are in that have afforded me a richer understanding of my purpose on the earth as far as to advocate for, let's stop paving paradise and you know.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker:

So. Yeah, and that was my, that was my first experience about taking an online reiki class too. Yeah. Yeah. I was taking the animal reiki and it, it makes sense because you know, you're not gonna bring people in their animals all together under one. One house and expect that everybody's gonna get along.'cause that is

Speaker 2:

not

Speaker:

how it works in the animal kingdom.

Speaker 2:

No. Especially with that energy running animal. Reiki is gentle. It's more subtle and it's not as, it's just as powerful, but not as intense as like normal reiki or holy fire reiki. But even then, it's new energy. People are trying it out for the first time. So to have that running with a bunch of animals in the room, just not a good combination. Right, right. So I kinda, mine really is the safest way to teach it. I kinda have

Speaker:

this visual of like, you know, being at Hogwarts or something, you know? Yeah. Like the first time they get to use their wands. I mean, like, no, I hate to, you know, I, I hate to bring the woo woo in there, but like, I mean, it kind of feels that way. You know, like all of a sudden you're like, you're trying something and

Speaker 2:

Yeah, no, it's gonna go, next thing you know, your dog is, you know, like, what is that? What are we doing here?

Speaker:

Exactly, exactly. So, yeah. Now speaking of, you know, Fiona, she's such a nervous girl. Uhhuh, she loved the class like she was with me the whole time.

Speaker 2:

Yep.

Speaker:

You know?

Speaker 2:

Mm-hmm.

Speaker:

Which I thought was

Speaker 2:

great. I think so too. Yeah. Lily's always with me and she's not nervous, but, um.

Speaker:

Yeah,

Speaker 2:

she got so much out of it. You could tell that she was learning and feeling the energy right along with me. It's so crazy to watch how it integrates with them too. Mm-hmm. Yeah.'cause what you, what a lot of people don't know probably is that, you know, the animals can be imbued with the reiki energy too, and they can become, you know, like the essence of reiki through the class. You can, the word isn't coming to my head, attune them to the reiki energy too, just like we are right.

Speaker:

And they can actually have, um,'cause I think this happened, like, spoiler alert, I think this happened with Lily, but she spontaneously attuned mm-hmm. Uh, with someone treating her from your class.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, it was, yeah. It was a crazy experience. She was doing a session on her and a whole bunch of things happened. She healed this part of her and then all of a sudden the energy just came in and you could tell her body just melted. She relaxed and. So cool. I'm getting lit up thinking about it now, but she's the woman working on her who didn't know her and this was online. She was not in the same room. She was in Canada. Said, I think she's being attuned right now. I think that she is. Yeah, it was, it was crazy. It was awesome. Right. I don't even know how to explain it

Speaker:

well and see. Okay, so that's the thing about reiki that like is, is hard to. Um, it's hard to qualify or quantify because it is a mystical thing. It is of the spirit. It is of spiritual in nature. It is spiritual in nature, and it, there is no time. You know, it's universal life force. It's a divine essence. Mm-hmm. Okay. And to put it into. Human language sometimes, like it gets devalued. It, it gets misunderstood. Yeah. And the, the quality and richness of using it for yourself, which is one of the things that we teach. Mm-hmm. Um. As I'm gonna say as a tenant, because like we want you to put your oxygen mask on first. Put your reiki on yourself first. Yes. Work with reiki for yourself first.

Speaker 2:

Mm-hmm.

Speaker:

Because it's a, it's a very intimate and personal dialogue. Mm-hmm. And then when you share the energy from that heart space with someone else through a session, um, it, yep. It's, it, it just, it does what the person needs. And you know, I'm not driving the bus on that experience. The reiki is Yes. You know? Yeah. Um, Reiki

Speaker 2:

comes from source energy. We're just a conduit for that energy. Yep. So we don't force it. We don't guide it. We don't say in our heads, oh my God, this person needs this. Right. We let it flow and intuitively go. The energy goes where it needs to go. Yeah. And we might get, you know, downloads or thoughts or knowing and ideas that come in, but at the, in the end, we're not in control of the energy. Not at all. No, not at all. And that's the beauty of it.

Speaker:

Well, and like, I think like with the distance symbol mm-hmm. For example, being a bridge, you know, like that was something that, I've looked at it in a lot of ways. Over the years. Mm-hmm. Uh, I've always believed that there is no time when it comes to reiki. So, you know, you can heal the past, you can heal the future. Mm-hmm. You can connect with people across the world. People ask you for distance reiki, you know, like you can just send it to'em. Yeah. Uh, however, I think that looking at it as a bridge, that it makes connections in. Such a, like, the words that are coming to my mind are magical and mystical, but Hmm. You know, those feel cheesy almost, you know? Yeah. Because it's, it's so much richer than that. Mm-hmm. Um, yeah.

Speaker 2:

Mm-hmm. It's hard. It's hard to explain. And that's one of the biggest roadblocks and trying to promote reiki and teach reiki and try and. Trying to get other people to see the value that Reiki can bring to your life, because you can't explain it. But so many times, you know, we'll do a session or, um, just giving people five minutes reiki, and they look back at you and go, what did you do? I feel so relaxed. I feel lighter. I feel like things have cleared it's energy, it's energy work,

Speaker:

right? Mm-hmm. And you can do it for yourself. Like that's the thing, like, mm-hmm. You know, the, the buzzword thing about like imposter syndrome or whatever that is, like, you can do this for yourself because it's your relationship with the energy. Mm-hmm. And if you start there. By me having this relationship, it's like, it's like introducing somebody, like making a connection for somebody that's gonna move them along their path, their career. Like if, you know, like if I knew somebody that was, you know, a grandma astrologer, the first thing I would do would say would be to say, Hey, you have to meet my friend Elaine. She is so gifted in astrology. Can I put you two together? Okay. So that you can benefit from the learning from the ma, the grand master astrologer. Okay. Right. I mean, to me, like that's no brainer. Okay. Reiki is the same way. Mm-hmm. Because this is my relationship with the Reiki energy personal relationship. And I'm saying to my students, to the people that come to see me or whatever, here, let me introduce you to this really cool friend. Right? And let's see how they can help you, assist you on your path. Mm-hmm.

Speaker 2:

Because Reiki energy is infinite. There is no ceiling, there's no cap. And everybody works with it in a different way and takes away what they need from it in a different way. So it is a very individual relationship. And another thing that we wish people knew. Was that they need to use it for themselves.

Speaker:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

Just like you just said, because it is here to evolve us, right? You, yeah. Yes. You wanna use it to help other people, but the main way to help other people and to, you know, hire the vibration of society is to help yourself first.

Speaker:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

And that sounds selfish and backwards, but the more that we've worked with that and the more that we've seen it happen with other people, it's the

Speaker:

truth. Okay. Well. Here's a little truth telling here. Mm-hmm. Being the fact that I've been involved with Reiki since 2009, 2008, 2009, something like that. Mm-hmm. That was my first Reiki class, and before that was another healing modalities. You know, there are a good number of years here. Yeah. Right. And I did use Reiki for myself, but I used it for other people first. Mm-hmm. Because I was a massage therapist. It was. A therapy that I offered. Mm-hmm. And self reiki was something that you did to align, to get ready or, you know, to do the attunements and teaching classes, that kind of thing. Okay. Truth be told, show in my cards, all that kinda stuff. Mm-hmm. The last, you know, what are we in year and a half that we've been in our little conversation here? Yeah. In our work. Right? Yep. Mm-hmm. 18 months we'll say. We'll round it. Yeah. Mm-hmm. Personal visions and goals? Vision as in my work, my neuro graphic art, my expression as art. Mm-hmm. My feng shui, all of the things that I'm putting together and offering. Mm-hmm. Have accelerated because I've been doing reiki myself every day. Yeah. Things drop in graphic art was something that came to me, just dropped into my feed kind of thing. Mm-hmm. And said. You need to work with this, you know? Yeah. And then I follow the energy on that, and it, it's coming to a really cool place. Mm-hmm. So it, you know

Speaker 2:

mm-hmm.

Speaker:

I'm, I'm blown away by the. The acceleration on my path because of the work I'm doing. And it has to tie into the astrology too, because the ti look at the change of the time of what, what you've talked about with the astrology.

Speaker 2:

Yeah. We're in a huge. Evolution portal is what's coming to my mind. Mm-hmm. Evolving yourself, evolving as a society, and I know that there's so much chaos right now in the outside world, but the people that are doing their work and working on themselves and tapping into their own energy and tapping into your own inner wisdom and your own magic inside of yourself, there's leaps and bounds. That I've seen people, you know, overcome and like you said, the work that we've been doing together. The more we tap into reiki and use it as, I don't even wanna say a tool, it's like the foundation of the energy that we use and the stuff just comes with it, like the astrology and the feng shui, and it like opens up doors and opens up and energy portal inside of yourself. That's all I can think of is this energy portal that Reiki creates for you. All right, so.

Speaker:

I know that we could rabbit hole about Reiki forever. Yeah. But, uh, you know, I, I just, I think I wanna end it here with, um, with just an offering and a blessing that, you know, we're, we're here to have the conversation with you about Reiki. Mm-hmm. Uh, we're here to. You know, support you in your path. We might not be your teacher. Mm-hmm. You know, like that's the other thing, like our style of teaching is not for everybody. We are neuro spicy. We are, you know, a DHD people, so mm-hmm. We are teaching for the style that works best for, you know, for us, for us. And so, however, what I'll say though is if I'm not your teacher, let me help you find one. Let me help you. I know a lot of Reiki people, right? Yeah. Yeah. Um, let me help you.

Speaker 2:

Mm-hmm.

Speaker:

Because honestly,

Speaker 2:

I know that we both feel the same way. The more people that are attuned to this energy, the better.

Speaker:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

We don't care how or what or why. Yeah. Just if we could facilitate that for somebody would be amazing. Whether it's through us or through somebody else. Yeah. Right.

Speaker:

Yeah. It would be amazing. And so I think that I wanna leave it with, you know, just offering a blessing, Reiki blessing. Let Reiki bless your life. However it needs to. Mm-hmm. Whether it be by seeing this podcast, you finding a person to get a session from you finding your teacher, if Reiki is calling you, you know, I ask you to answer. Mm-hmm. I ask you to answer, I ask you to follow through on it. You know, and my wish for you is healing all those parts in yourself where you think that you're not worthy of something because you are worthy and you're here for a purpose and blessings on that purpose. I love that. That's all I got for right now,

Speaker 2:

right? That, that was enough. I love that ending. All right.
