My Reiki Journey

My Reiki journey begins with my grandfather. My Guardian Angel is my grandfather. I have always known this. It was confirmed that my grandfather was my guardian angel by a shaman named Peg. Peg was the person who introduced me to Reiki. She was the first of many people to let me that I have healing hands.

I was twenty years old when I met Peg. She owned a little spiritual shop where I lived at the time. When I first met Peg, I wanted very badly to become a massage therapist. Peg told, me, I would become one, but I would end up being so much more than just a massage therapist. At the time, I had no idea what she meant. Now over twenty years later, I do understand what she meant by it. One of the first steps that many Reiki Masters take is becoming a massage therapist; as massage therapy uses the hands to heal.
And so, my Reiki journey began with Peg and going to massage school.

I did end up going to massage therapy school after my father passed away. I mention this because it is he who always wanted me to follow my dream and become a massage therapist. He always encouraged me and told me that I was great at massaging people. I felt his presents when I went to school. It was a feeling of his pride.

Beginning My Reiki Journey

Reiki is feeling the universal energies flowing through you. Honestly, with practice, anyone is capable of doing this. Just feel the energy of the earth flowing into your body and filling you with its flow. Visualize the energies from the earth coming up through you starting at your feet and flowing right through the top of your head. For me, I could feel the universal energies flowing through me and my hands very strongly.

I began to practice feeling this energy flow right after my first encounter with Peg. I do believe she opened the chakras in my hands. At least, she made me aware of the chakras in my hands and their openings. Unofficially, Peg was my first Reiki Master; I do thank her for all her help in my Reiki journey. My Reiki journey began at the age of twenty.

My Reiki Journey with Lady Autumn

Lady Autumn was my first official Reiki Master. Lady Autumn trained me full in Usui Reiki. There are three levels of training that go into becoming a Usui Reiki Master, level 1, 2, and Master levels. I received my certification from her on April 14, 2008. I had finally become a certified Master and teacher of Reiki. It had taken me a very long time to achieve my goals, do to financial reasons. You wouldn’t believe would much it cost to become a Reiki Master.

My Gold Reiki Journey

Gold Reiki was always at the top to me. Becoming a Gold Reiki Master was what I was shooting for but how was I going to get there. To become a Gold Reiki Master not only do you have to become a Unsi Reiki Master you also have to go through Kundalini Reiki training.

The cost of all of this training is very high. I didn’t have the money for it. I am the type of person that never gives up. When I set my mind on something I will get or do it no, matter how long it takes.

Well, don’t you know, it just so happened that a fellow writer was a Gold Reiki Master. This wonderful man knows what it was like to want to become a Gold Reiki Master and not be able to afford the training for it. So as a gift not only to myself, but to others who have trained under him, he made this training affordable.

Nemrod Kedem helped me make my dreams come true. My Kundalini and Gold Reiki training were the most interesting and amazing training that I had ever had. When one is attuned to the Reiki energies your mind, body and soul go through a healing process. You have an even stronger connection to the earth. I strongly felt these energies going on during my training with Master Kedem. It was stronger than any other energy I had ever felt before the Gold Reiki energy.

I finished my training with Master Kedem. I am very grateful to him for everything that he has taught me. Gold Reiki is the most beautiful and amazing Reiki energy that I have even encountered. It changed my life. I thank Master Kedem for that. I officially become a Gold Reiki Master and trainer on September 16th, 2015.

I would like to thank all of my Reiki Masters and friends that I have meant in my Reiki journey. I have learned so much over the years. I am sure I will continue to learn even more. Blessed Be to ALL THE LIGHT WORKERS OUT THERE.

Thank-you for reading about the beginning of my Reiki journey. I hope, you enjoyed it. I know that I have enjoyed every moment of my wonderful journey with Reiki. May it continue for the rest of this lifetime and beyond!

Much Love and light,

Brenda Marie
