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…

Energy healing sources: skill and choice
Energy healing is available to us all – not just the natural healers among us, not for the special or most spiritual few! Connect in to the source of the energy, become the “hollow bone”, and just let the energy flow. And make sure it’s source energy you are flowing, not your own – then…

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. January 2024 is *big* new year energy. There’s some nifty Pluto-related astrology things happening that I’m assured is the reason the shift feels…

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…

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…

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…

Healing and changes at the new moon
The cycle of the moon is one of the natural prompts in my life, something I’ve been paying attention to and drawing on for the last 20 years or so. When I was a young witch in training, I attended group rituals at every full moon – a practice I kept up for years. I…

Attachments as a barrier to healing
We’ve just had (last night/this morning) an enormous full moon in Pisces. In my own readings on the healing properties of this moon, the important emphasis was on letting go of old stories and making room for something new to come in. We can work with the moon itself, especially right now, to receive the…

A shamanic approach to Reiki
I love Reiki healing. I do Reiki every day (Hatsurei ho, in case you’re interested…) and I think it is the best tool a healer can have in their collection. It is also the easiest way to connect to source and to channel healing without getting tired, the easiest way to do self healing, and…

The best guidance for getting un-stuck
Just because we are on a healing path doesn’t mean we can always see the next steps. So what do we do when, despite being committed to a path of personal development, we find ourselves unable to move forward into healing?
