Hey friends,
This week we’ve got our very first guest on The No Taboo Woo Woo Show! Sam Pedder, a consultant anaesthetist on the cusp of retirement, joins us to talk all things Munay Ki Rites, Reiki, intuition, and what happens when a self-proclaimed “science brain” ends up deep in ancient energy rights from the Q’ero people of Peru.
We kick off with a Dreamy Moons Tarot pull (cheers to Sam for gifting Gail this beaut deck): Four of Pentacles + The Self, a combo that ends up landing for all three of us. Because yes, we’re all in a transition. And yes, the universe is asking us to look within for answers.
Sam takes us through her journey from “woo woo bollocks” sceptic to receiving the 9 Munay Ki Rites, the “love energy” transmissions originally passed down from the Q’ero elders. She shares the catalyst (a patient’s unexpected stroke that shook her world), the moment Reiki cracked her open, and how the Munay Ki felt like coming home after years of living from the masculine.
We get into:
✨ The Womb Rite (the 13th one) - releasing fear, awakening creativity, and Sam’s wild experience of her male womb falling out ✨ The pi stone ceremony, luminous bodies & trusting what you can’t proof-check✨ Why community might be the medicine humanity is screaming for✨ Healing in the NHS, introducing Reiki to hospital staff & the limitations of a system built to manage disease, not prevent it✨ Masculine armour, the “tin can” shell, and cracking open your power centre
There’s also Bashar’s follow your highest excitement teaching, the science vs spirit paradox, consciousness, emotion, and why the spiritual path can feel bloody lonely until you find your people.
If you’ve ever been the sceptic, the seeker, the scientist, the healer - or all four at once - this episode is a warm kick up the soul. And if you’re curious about the Munay Ki Rites and what an energetic upgrade actually feels like? Sam lays it all out. If you feel called to receive them yourself, Helen Totton is The Soul Doula that Sam worked with.
This one is spacious, grounded, magical, and exactly what the collective needs right now.
We’re shifting, and you’re part of it.
Much love,Sandra, Gail & Sam xo
