Episode Description
Paula interviews Victoria C. Leo and Ashley Dahlgren. This issue touches the debated topic of “Can I gift Reiki for free.” First let’s look at the fact that USUI offered free Reiki himself to disaster victims and the homeless. Victoria shares information on how a practitioner can be compassionate on gifting Reiki and creating a revenue for their business as a Reiki practitioner and teacher. She shares ideas on how a balance can be achieved by being a server and business owner. It is true that some populations don’t have the financial resources as others. So when a Reiki business is based on compassion for the whole world, adjustments do need to be made. This episode shares many great thoughts on this issue. When compassion is the core of gifting Reiki, long-distance or in person, this can only honor USUI and what Reiki stands for. Victoria, Ashley and Paula had fun sharing a variety of thoughts on this topic.

My goal is that you will gain new knowledge and insight about Reiki, as well as gain your own self-empowerment. Every day, I wish to help others live with love and compassion, thus allowing their own blessings to manifest. Our show will be about Reiki. It will cover many different aspects of Reiki, and other topics that work with Reiki. Shamanism, nutrition, self-empowerment etc.
We’ll discuss how Reiki fits in with Western medicine and other alternative healing modalities (chiropractic, massage, SVH, etc.), Reiki in hospitals, and the tremendous effect it has in regard to surgeries, pain, and its role in healing, and its value to a Reiki practitioner, How Reiki aids in healing us physically and emotionally, discussion on our LEF (Luminous energy field, and Reiki is an energy healing modality) and discuss how our energy field, vibration, and intent play such a huge role in our health, happiness, and self-empowerment.

I was born a premature baby, weighing less than 3 pounds. Doctors did not believe I would make it through the night. I did survive. I have had a grateful heart my whole life. I have always believed that happiness is a choice. While in college, I began working at a restaurant in Tacoma, Washington, which I eventually bought. I worked in that restaurant for 27 years. My years in the restaurant business gave me the opportunity to meet so many amazing people. After I sold my restaurant, I went to work as a receptionist so that I could continue to work with people. Working with people is one of my passions. It was at this time that I began learning Reiki. It all started because I am an avid animal lover. I had a beloved dog that was ill. Someone suggested I learn Reiki. That started me on my Reiki path. Reiki is my love and passion; therefore, I made giving and teaching Reiki my career.
Sharing information and/or Reiki energy with others fills my heart with joy.
My accomplishments include Reiki training (with various teachers) in Tacoma and Seattle, Washington, Sedona, Arizona and in Peru. I am a Usui and Karuna Master/Teacher. I have had training in Shamanism and Serenity Vibration Healing as well. I was awarded “Best of Tacoma 2013” in the wellness category.
