What or who prompted you to become a Reiki practitioner and Master Teacher?

I was truly called to Reiki. I was being prompted by spirit for about 3 months before it clicked and I listened. I actually signed up for my first Reiki class 2 times and both classes were canceled. Then out of thin air my Reiki Sensei showed up and I

started my training with her. I didn’t know why I was called at first and as I practiced and called on Reiki for guidance it became clear it is to bring peace, love and healing to humanity.

As a Master Teacher to give this gift and to mentor others is a natural expression

for me. To awaken that which is naturally a part of who we are and to guide others

in having the confidence to trust spirit and their own intuition has been a blessing.

After my trainings I realized I had been doing some form of healing in the twenty five years as a professional hairstylist.

The Universe does bring us what we truly need at the time. Can you elaborate more

on the healing that was happening while you were a hair stylist?

There aren’t many professions where people are physically touched and something happens to another human being when they are touched in a positive way. I’ve had people in my chair tell me things they’ve never revealed to anybody and said while there were telling me, “I don’t know why I’m telling you this”.

Another example is implementing a shoulder, neck and head massage when I do a

hair cut. I’ve gotten rid of headaches, anxieties and upsets just through that action.

My clients would say, “Forget the haircut just keep doing that” or “that’s why I come here” or “I look forward to this every time I come”.

My clients leave relaxed, happy and whatever they were upset about was no longer there. They’ve reported issues in there family resolved, love restored and a more positive over all out look on life. As I continue doing hair I implement my training in transformational work along with the guidance of Reiki.

This has played a significant role in how I listen to people and get what’s really important to them and what can make a difference and I am able to aid in giving

them that freedom. I have been blessed and rewarded beyond belief, I am so

grateful I can make this kind of difference.
