How to work more deeply with reiki and energetic alchemy for self-awakening

On the Secret Witch Show today our guest is Yolanda Williams. Yolanda is a Reiki teacher and host of the fabulous ‘Reiki Radio’ podcast. She is an Energetic Alchemist, also certified in Wellness Counseling, through Cornell University. Her work facilitates new levels of self-connection and reveals the dynamics of mind, body and energy. Yolanda's classes include Usui Reiki, all levels, in San Diego, as well as mentoring and intuitive awakening courses, online.

In this episode we explore all things ‘energetic alchemy’.  We dived into Yolanda’s uniquely deep perspective of Reiki, investigating how it can be a powerful portal of ‘inner work’ and self-awakening that offers healing of the mind, body spirit - rather than something ‘external’ as it is often seen.  We discussed some of the surface-level misunderstandings of reiki, and explore the nuances of how we can harness energetic alchemy for ourselves - beyond outsourcing our power to others - to actually peel back layers of ourselves, see where we are projecting, connect to our intuition and unlock hidden aspects of ourselves.  Including our unique gifts!


What You’ll Learn from this Episode:

• When we first feel a call to energetic alchemy, we can feel alone in our journey - we might know we are sensitive, but can feel ‘weird’ or ‘odd’ in that.  Energy healing can help us begin to understand this aspect of ourselves - in whatever form that takes

• Reiki is a tool that can help us find a way into energy healing - and it can be interacted with differently to how we commonly know it to be harnessed.  In other words, we can harness energetic alchemy for ‘ourselves’ - rather than simply outsourcing our healing to others - and in doing so, we can own our power to peel back layers and go on an inner journey of self-awakening and transformation

• There’s an interconnectedness between mind, body and spirit - we can’t disconnect it, and as we begin to look inwards to what’s been suppressed, healing manifests - energy healing helps us learn we can choose that process consciously

• Energetic alchemy can help us reclaim the gifts of being a sensitive woman and learn how to distinguish our energy from others, empowering our own self-regulation and intuition

• Not everyone will experience their intuition in the same way - some are visual, some feel things, some know things - and as we become more aware of our own sensitivities and gifts, we can learn to embrace our intuition more fully

• There’s an importance in ascending into a spiritual path to see what’s ‘the same’ - *and* also surrendering to being the physical ‘vessel’ that collects the rain - aka descending into the body and embracing our uniqueness.  All energetic alchemy tools are bringing us ‘home’ to both of these things.
