What is Reiki?

Reiki is often described as “spiritually guided life force energy,” a gentle yet powerful technique for stress reduction, relaxation, and healing that works on body, mind, emotions, and spirit together. As a Reiki Master Teacher and Practitioner, I hold space for this energy to flow through classes, treatments, and attunements that empower others to experience Reiki as both a healing practice and a spiritual path.

Reiki Master Teachers carry the responsibility of both practicing Reiki and passing it on to others through structured training and attunements. Inspired by respected teachers such as William Lee Rand, who has taught Reiki worldwide and helped develop systems like Usui/Tibetan, Karuna Reiki, and Holy Fire, my work honors tradition while making Reiki accessible and grounded in everyday life.

My role includes guiding students through Levels I, II, and Master training, and creating a safe, ethical learning environment.

Like Rand’s approach at The International Center for Reiki Training, my teaching recognizes Reiki as both a practical healing modality and a journey of personal and spiritual development.

Lineage and Reiki.org Connection

William Lee Rand is internationally known for his contributions to Reiki, including founding The International Center for Reiki Training and developing new systems that support modern practitioners. He emphasizes that Reiki can be a simple hands‑on healing method, a spiritual path, and a personal empowerment journey all at once.

My work resonates strongly with this perspective: Reiki is both a practical tool for relaxation and healing as well as a doorway into deeper self‑awareness.

By aligning with Reiki.org principles – such as ethical practice, clear class structure, and ongoing development – I offer students and clients a path that is both spiritually rich and well‑grounded in an established lineage.

My direct connection/lineage with William Lee Rand is via Jill Thiell, who I studied under and received my certifications from.

Private Reiki Treatments

Reiki is administered through a light touch or hands held just above the body, allowing spiritually guided life force energy to flow where it is most needed. This energy raises the vibratory level of your energy field, helping to clear blocked or stagnant patterns so that life force can circulate more freely.

Clients often experience deep relaxation, warmth, or gentle tingling as the body releases stress and tension, which supports the body’s natural ability to heal.

I incorporate my experience as an herbalist to enhance my Reiki sessions with organic, locally harvested botanical aromatherapy to energetically elevate your experience, specifically the damask rose.

As a professional musician I use sound healing via my voice to enhance the healing vibrations of Reiki.

In your one‑to‑one treatments, this means sessions become a sanctuary: time set aside for rest, rebalancing, and reconnection to inner calm. Reiki can support people recovering from physical challenges, navigating emotional change, or simply seeking a more centered and peaceful way of living.

What Clients & Students Can Expect

Those receiving Reiki from me can expect a gentle yet profound experience of being seen, supported, and held in healing energy that works on all levels of their being. Over time, regular sessions may help:

• Reduce stress and promote relaxation, supporting the body’s natural healing processes.
• Clear and balance the energy system, assisting in the release of emotional blockages and old patterns.
• Deepen connection to the “healer within,” helping people recognize their own innate capacity to change and grow.

Students in my classes can expect:

• A structured, supportive environment that follows recognized Reiki.org standards for training and attunement while honoring each individual’s spiritual journey.
• Practical skills you can use immediately for self‑care, supporting loved ones, or, with further training, offering professional sessions.
• Ongoing encouragement to treat Reiki not only as a technique, but as a way of living with more compassion, presence, and alignment.

As a Reiki Master Teacher and Practitioner, I serve as both channel and guide – offering treatments that soothe and restore, and classes that awaken the ability in others to share this “spiritually guided life force energy” with the world.

Classes & Attunements

Learning Reiki happens through a combination of class instruction and a specific energetic process called an attunement or placement. The attunement is considered a powerful spiritual experience in which the Reiki energies are channeled into the student, opening the ability to connect more directly with Reiki for life.

Class structure follows the widely recognized progression:

Reiki Level I:

• Focus on self‑healing, basic hand positions, and understanding what Reiki is and how it works.
• Students receive an attunement that allows them to give Reiki to themselves and others in person, often experiencing a deep sense of connection and inner peace.

Reiki Level II:

• Introduction to sacred symbols, distance healing, and techniques to strengthen and focus the Reiki energy.
• Students learn how to send Reiki across time and space, and how to deepen emotional and mental healing, often reporting more intuitive experiences.

Reiki Master / Teacher Level:

• Advanced training in spiritual development, use of master symbols, and the methods for giving attunements and teaching others.
• This level is for students who feel called to embody Reiki as a major part of their life path and to serve others as teachers and guides.

In your classes, there is time for practice, questions, and integration, recognizing that each student’s experience is unique and guided by higher consciousness, just as described in Reiki.org’s teachings on attunements.

Group Reiki Experiences

I offer Group Experiences which are a wonderful opportunity to go on a “Reiki Journey” with your friends, family or other gathering of like-minded individuals. There is the Ocean of Holy Love, Holy Love Experience I,II, and III, Heavenly Banquet Hall Experience, Holy Fire Healing Experience and Healing in The River of Life experience. All group experiences are gently guided Reiki life force energy specifically directed for your groups needs.

Each experience lasts between 30-45 minutes and includes a guided meditation in a safe, Reiki infused environment, light beverages and a 15 minute chat at the end to process the shared experience.

Rose Rituals & Skin Care as Soul Care

My Reiki work is enhanced by my use of the Damask Rose which I harvest from my own garden. I use the rose hydrosol that I make to infuse all reiki classes and treatments with the high vibration, healing energy of this most potent plant ally.

Lastly, my artisanal skin care line treats skin care as soul care. The signature product is the Rose Hydrosol Face & Body Myst which is grounded in the rose hydrosol that I harvest from my own damask rose garden. Roses are the most energetically gifted botanical we have. When incorporated into daily practice, along with my pre-packaged guided meditations and sound healing Mp3’s, the Rose Hydrosol Face & Body Myst becomes a sanctuary of Repose that is Intimate, Soulful and Ritual Based. The Ritual Kit is available for purchase or you receive the kit free when purchasing a custom energetic facial treatment from me.
