It’s a new year, it’s a new administration, and many voice a feeling of uncertainty in these times of change. Astrologically, the theme for 2025 is completions & beginnings, there’ll be a lot of change with the planets and the energies surrounding us.
Whether we’re aware of it or not, it takes tremendous amounts of energy to adjust to change. During times of change and transition, it is crucial to have an anchor within yourself. To be grounded and centered from within.
Think of a strong tree. When shi(f)t happens, it may bend, it may sway. Yet, it doesn’t break. I love this metaphor, because inner-focused practices like Reiki help us build strength and resilience from the inside out. Valuable support for when the winds of change blow – whether we’ve initiated the change or change happens around us.
Throughout the years I have witnessed in my clients that the life force energy and practice of Reiki can be a powerful agent for grounding and centering, calm and peace, but also for effecting internal change as well. It can be a tremendous resource, a deep well of strength and comfort.
Don’t just take my word for it, here’s what Miriam after her Reiki 1 training:
"Reiki has helped me tremendously to get to know myself better, my abilities, but also limitations...
I felt that after “completing” the Reiki 1 training with Andrea that Reiki has helped me keep my head above water. To access strength inside of me. To not make myself dependent on others for my physical and emotional well-being. I feel that Reiki has allowed me to grow in ways I could have never thought possible.”

When starting something new, people often talk about intentions and manifestations. If you’re interested to learn from a high-performance psychologist and neurosurgeon about these two concepts, I highly recommend this Finding Mastery conversation: Does Manifestation Really Work?
