My Story

Image by Lina Trochez

My spiritual journey of awakening really began in 2012 when I first encountered the practice of mindfulness meditation and the curious exploration of the patterns and habits of my mind that I hadn't realized were causing me to suffer. I noticed such an incredible shift in my level of happiness and contentment with life and wanted to share the practice with others. I have been teaching mindfulness meditation since 2015, leading weekly sittings and inviting mindful, intentional living as a regular practice. 

After my first Reiki attunement in 2019, my meditation practice took on new life and a new partner, amplifying my awareness and connection to my body, helping me identify, release and shift old ways of seeing, thus shifting my reality. My life began to reflect these shifts, and I met my beloved spiritual life partner just days after. Meditation and Reiki together have helped me unlearn habits that were not serving me, making more space for healthier habits of thinking and being. The journey has continued, and with each Reiki attunement I've received, I have experienced deeper levels of releasing and healing, allowing me to become a clearer channel for the healing energy to pass through. 

I have been a Reiki Master Teacher since July of 2023, and since that time, have been manifesting my Reiki vision of reuniting beings with their light by connecting with Reiki daily through self-healing in addition to sharing Reiki with family, friends, and students at the College I work at. It is with excitement and gratitude that I officially begin my Reiki practice and Flower of Life Reiki by offering in-person healing sessions out of the offices of my Chiropractic healing gurus at Precision Chiropractic in Williston. Distance Reiki sessions are also available, providing the opportunity to experience healing from the comfort of your own environment.

My Approach

I take a personalized approach to each session, tailoring the experience to meet the unique needs of each individual. Whether you’re looking to heal physical pain, release negative emotional or mental patterns, or are seeking inner peace, I am here to help bring soothing, vital life force energy to your energetic bodies, supporting you on your path to wellness.

Each session will begin with a check-in so that I can answer any questions you may have, and you can share your own healing intentions or goals with me. We will also end with space for sharing and transitioning out of the healing session.

At Reiki's core are a set of principles to guide the way to healing and a life of purpose and presence. These principles can be seen as ways to train the mind, and further support the healing effects of Reiki sessions by working with what is often at the root of disease: patterns of thinking that lead to an inability to manage stress and anxiety. These principles invite us, just for today, to not be angry, to not worry, to be grateful, to do our work honestly, and to be kind to all beings. It is rooted in the practice and application of these principles that Flower of Life Reiki has emerged.

About Reiki

Reiki is a gentle, hands-on energy healing technique that is used for stress reduction, relaxation, and the promotion of balance within the body systems. Reiki is usually translated as universal life force energy or soul energy. Many cultures have an awareness and relationship with the unseen, subtle energies that flow through all living things, understanding that this energy directly affects the quality of a person’s health. In China, this energy is referred to as qi, in India it’s called prana, and in Japan, it is ki. Reiki is a type of ki described as primordial consciousness, and is not bound to any one system of the body. When our life energy is low, it is more difficult to deal with stress. We may have difficulty sleeping and may be more susceptible to illness as a result. When our life energy is strong, we feel strong, can more easily deal with stress, and are less likely to become ill. Reiki is a technique that increases a personal supply of life energy, activating the natural healing processes of the body to help restore physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being.

What is a Reiki session like?

Reiki is administered through the hands of a Reiki practitioner with the receiver lying fully clothed on a massage table or seated in a chair. Sessions can last anywhere from 60 minutes to an hour and a half. The Reiki practitioner places their hands at locations around the body that correspond with the 7 major chakras, the legs, and the feet. The practitioner’s hands are simply held at each location, lightly touching or slightly away from the body. Reiki is channeled by the practitioner and flows from their hands into the receiver’s body and energy field. A Reiki session can feel like a wonderful glowing radiance that surrounds and fills the receiver, invoking feelings of relaxation, peace and well-being that can promote healing.
