Episode #67 Karen Caig: From Academic Rigor to Reiki Splendor - Navigating the Transformative Healing Path and Cultivating Inner Balance

Ready Set Reiki®️

Have you ever felt a pull towards a path that seemed completely at odds with where you were in life? Karen Caig, a Reiki master teacher, joins us to recount her extraordinary shift from academia to a Reiki and coaching career, a transition marked by personal healing and the embrace of a practice that knows no bounds. Her story is one of courage and the transformative power of Reiki, a journey from confronting trauma to empowering others through this ancient healing art, all from the tranquility of her home in Ecuador.
When it comes to grappling with the intangible, Karen sheds light on the nuances of acceptance and the hurdles she overcame to establish Reiki not just as a practice but as a thriving business, particularly in the traditionally skeptical regions of the Bible Belt. The conversation meanders through the vital role of social media in de-stigmatizing energy work, the need for patience as one's life's work unfolds, and the nurturing wisdom imparted to a generation eager to find their purpose. Karen's reflections are a celebration of life's unexpected turns and the joys found in following one's true calling.
Wrapping up our soul-nourishing chat, we zero in on what sets a Reiki healer apart: the emphasis is on empowerment, self-care, and alignment with Reiki's guiding principles. Karen's insights into the personal balance that comes from self-Reiki, the community and support akin to prestigious alumni networks, and the immersive experiences of her Reiki retreats offer a roadmap for both novices and experienced practitioners. Whether you're looking to heal, grow, or simply find a moment of connection, this episode is an open invitation to the world of Reiki, with Karen Caig as your guiding light.
