About Amy
How I used to feel:
The familiar feelings of anxiety and depression creep in through cracks of my facade, how do they surprise me each time? The feelings are so familiar yet I never see them coming! Pushing through the smiles and small talk of the office leaves me exhausted. With little energy left by the time I get home, it feels impossible to exercise, meet with friends or even cook a decent meal. Maybe some wine will help, some doom scrolling or a Netflix binge. I’ll just do what I can until it passes……
How long did I wait…..how long is a piece of string?
One day I met a new word, Reiki, it spiked my interest but then drifted away into the rush of the daily grind. It popped up again, this time someone I knew had learned it as was raving about it. Again, it rolled away down a road I wasn’t following.
What Changed:
Finally, I was ready and booked into a Reiki 1 class. It was 2014 and my Reiki Master taught in a logical and systematic way. This style resonated with me and it was easy to apply to my life. So easy in fact, that I have been self treating every day since!
Through this consistency, I noticed subtle changes and I came to realise the link was Reiki.
Reiki 2 was locked in my dairy in 2015 and soon after, more obvious signs of clarity occurred and I felt like a different person.
With these experiences fresh in my awareness, my passion to share the easy and simple practice of Reiki grew.
Having experienced the possibilities myself, I was drawn to teach others and embarked on a year long apprenticeship to become an initiating Teacher in 2017. And after Teaching across Houston, Texas and Perth, WA I became more aware of the practical ways that Reiki weaves through our lives.
Mikao Usui was not the first Japanese healing Sensei, he was the first to organise his wisdom and share it with the public. This included hands on healing, affirmations, mindfulness and wholistic health and wellness. He organised these into a system and presented it in a way that people could understand, learn and benefit from. It is through practicing The Usui System of Reiki Healing our lives transform and we are able to master our own energy and lead authentic, meaningful lives.
Now I teach others to heal their lives through The Usui System of Reiki, I Chair the Reiki Association of Western Australia, occationally write for Reiki Rays and continue to treat myself daily.
Feel free to contact me if you would like to chat about Reiki and The Usui System.
