Rachael - Healing Facilitator
I originally trained as a sociologist, graduating with a PhD in 2010. I then moved to the eastern states from my home town in Western Australia to take up an employment opportunity in the field of data analytics and research.Â
My job was very stressful, so I learnt to meditate. I trained in a vipassana tradition and attended many retreats. I eventually travelled to Nepal and Myanmar to undertake intensive training with monastic teachers. I found that through the meditation I developed a sensitivity to what was happening in my mind and body, and also began to notice energy. This interested me and I wanted to find out how I could work with energy to help with my own health and wellbeing, and that of others.
I am a qualified Reiki practitioner. My lineage (Usui Reiki Ryoho) can be viewed here.
I engage in continual learning to deepen my knowledge of energy anatomy and touch-based therapies, and have undertaken training and professional development in the following:
Usui Reiki Ryoho with Diana Fels.
Foundations in Cell-Level Healing, with mentoring from Helen Folsom.
Wu Shen (Five Spirits), with Lorie Dechar.
Currently undertaking Zen Shiatsu Foundations with Emma Strapps.
First aid training (HLTAID011,HLTAID009, HLTAID010).
Member of Australian Reiki Connection Inc. (ARC) the Association of Australian Reiki Professionals.
I am an intuitive practitioner guided by a deep sensitivity to Ki, strengthened through my meditation practice and continual learning and development.
