In this special Winter Solstice episode, I’m guiding you through a deeply restorative 15-minute Yoga Nidra meditation created to help you soften into the energy of the season. The Winter Solstice marks the longest night of the year—a sacred threshold where darkness peaks and the returning light begins its gentle ascent. It is a time of inner reflection, quiet renewal, and honoring the wisdom that arrives in stillness.

This Yoga Nidra practice was designed as an accessible way to reconnect with your inner light, find deep rest, and settle into the quiet space within. You’ll be guided through grounding breathwork, a nourishing full-body relaxation, and a heart-centered visualization that invites warmth and clarity into your winter season.

Whether you are seeking grounding, energetic reset, or a moment to simply breathe, this practice offers a soft landing place.

What’s inside this episode:

• A gentle introduction to the significance of the Winter Solstice

• A supportive and accessible Yoga Nidra journey

• Space to rest, restore, and reconnect with your inner presence

• An invitation to honor the slow, sacred rhythm of winter

May this meditation offer you stillness, renewal, and a reminder that your inner light remains steady—no matter the season.

Join us online for a special Reiki & Sound Healing Winter Solstice practice on December 21st, 2025 4-5:30PM PST

In this episode, we’ll journey through a gentle hypnosis-infused Reiki meditation designed to help you reconnect with your natural flow of creativity and motivation. If you’ve been feeling uninspired, depleted, or disconnected from your passions, this practice will guide you back to your inner spark — the part of you that creates effortlessly from joy, curiosity, and love.

Through soothing guidance, Reiki visualization, and subconscious reprogramming, you’ll be invited to release energetic blocks, awaken your creative fire, and remember what it feels like to be fully resourced in your own light.

This is your time to realign with what you love most — and to feel energized in expressing it.

If you’re ready to explore deeper one-on-one healing, creative empowerment, or energetic alignment, I invite you to book a free consultation and discover how we can work together:

In this episode, I’m sharing some reflections on The Energy Codes by Dr. Sue Morter — a book that’s been making a huge difference for me, both personally and in my Reiki practice.

I’ll talk about some of the practices from the book that I’ve been trying out, like Central Channel Breathing and the Heart Code, and how they’ve helped me feel more connected, grounded, and open — not just in my own energy, but when I’m working with clients too.

I also share a few of the inspiring stories Dr. Sue includes about how people have healed physically, emotionally, and spiritually by working with their energy in this really embodied way.

If you’re curious about how to bring more love, presence, and flow into your life (and your healing work), this episode is for you.

I’m excited to tell you a little bit about what I’ve been learning and how it’s been changing the way I show up — inside and out.

Reiki Rising Podcast – New Moon Solar Eclipse in Aries

Hey everyone, this episode is all about the New Moon Solar Eclipse in Aries and what this energy might be bringing up for you. Eclipses tend to shake things up, clear out what’s no longer needed, and open new doors—even if we’re not sure we’re ready for them. Aries is the sign of action, independence, and new beginnings, so this one carries a strong push forward.

I’ve also been reading Cosmic Health by Jennifer Racioppi, which connects astrology with how we experience energy in our bodies. Aries rules the head, brain, and adrenal system, which means this eclipse might be stirring things up physically as well as emotionally. I’ll go over how to find where Aries is in your birth chart so you can see which area of life this eclipse is activating.

In this episode:

✨ What this New Moon Solar Eclipse in Aries means

✨ How to look up your astrology chart and find where Aries lands

✨ Aries’ connection to the body and nervous system

✨ Ways to support yourself through this eclipse window

✨ Thoughts on Cosmic Health and how astrology shows up in our well-being

Eclipse energy works over time, so these shifts might unfold over the next six weeks or more. If things feel uncertain, trust that clarity is coming.

Let me know how this eclipse energy is showing up for you. See you in the episode!

Eclipse season is here, bringing profound shifts, emotional turning points, and an invitation to release control and surrender to the flow of life. In this episode of Reiki Rising, we explore how the energy of the full moon and total lunar eclipse is activating the south node’s lessons, guiding us to let go of perfectionism, rigid structures, and the illusion of control.

I’ll share how Reiki can be a powerful tool during this time, helping us navigate emotions, clear energetic blocks, and find peace amidst the cosmic shifts.

Together, we’ll reflect on:

✨ What eclipse season is and why it’s a time of transformation

✨ The significance of this full moon and total lunar eclipse

✨ How to use self-Reiki to embrace surrender and trust

✨ Where we may be holding onto self-criticism or resistance

✨ A gentle guided Reiki practice to release and realign

As Thich Nhat Hanh so beautifully reminds us: “There is no way to peace, peace is the way.” This episode will help you embody that truth, finding ease and alignment even in times of uncertainty.

Tune in, take a deep breath, and let’s move through this eclipse season with presence, Reiki, and trust.

I’m bringing it back to the basics—exploring the fundamental nature of energy healing and how it works on a quantum level to restore balance and wholeness. While Mikao Usui created Reiki as a teachable system, energy healing has existed for centuries across cultures. In this episode, we’ll dive into how our environment, experiences, and even the energetic shifts of the Earth can impact our well-being, and how Reiki helps us navigate these changes.

Reiki isn’t something we learn—it’s something we remember. We are Reiki. Through practice, we reconnect with this universal energy and learn how to share it in a way that supports both our personal healing and the healing of others.
