The Reiki 2 symbols
Today’s blog is an informal chat about the Reiki 2 symbols (and why you are not actually attuned to them, because that’s not actually how it works!) I hope this will be of interest to those Reiki people I meet who are not confident with the symbols – you can be! – and to those…

The power of little medicine
I’ve been away for a couple of weeks, some time skipping around in the borders with my mum and her magnificent new dog (pictured below, because we always love to see dogs!) and the other half spent up in the Highlands learning how to pour sweat lodge. I love sweat lodge – these ceremonies are…

Reiki Sound Healing – what is it?
The Reiki Sound Healing weekend is in two weeks – but you might be wondering, “er, what is it?” So I thought I’d answer some of the questions people have asked, here on the blog! Is it the same as Reiki Drumming? In a word, no 🙂 Reiki Drumming is a system put together by…

Healing voice: a conversation
As you might know, I love vocal sound healing more than most things! It really has become the heart of my practice over the years.

Reiki and sound healing: perfect harmony
Today is 14 February, and you know what special day that is? No, not the V-word – it’s World Sound Healing Day! Every day is a sound healing day for me. Reiki is one of my most frequently used, go-to energies, as you all know, but singing and drumming are two of my every day…

Thoughts from the Need-Fire
This month on Propolos (and on the blog) I have been thinking a lot about the importance of creating the right structures, the strongest containers, for our energies in the new year.

Living 2024 “on purpose”
Happy new year, lovely healers who look at my blog! I noticed this year that I saw a lot of people struggle, people who said it wasn’t a good year for them. I’ve noticed plenty of other healers and friends say they’ve observed the same. To be honest with you, 2023 contained a fair amount of…

Ways to fall (back) in love with Reiki
If you’re on my mailing list or have checked out my upcoming calendar for the new year, you might have noticed that this coming January is ReikiFest! Well that’s what I’m calling it in my mind anyways… It’s a very public return to the world of Reiki for me (not that I ever left it…

Using the voice for healing and seidr – an interview
Last week I had the pleasure of being interviewed by Katie Gerrard – hypnotherapist, Seidr expert and author of “Seidr: the gate is open” – about my healing voice work. Katie and I had a talk recently about Seidr, the Old Norse shamanic rites of seership, and my preference to use voice instead of drums…
