Ready Set Reiki

You can’t see energy, so how do you know Reiki and energy healing are doing anything at all? I sit down with Tania Ho, an intuitive soul guide and the founder of Museflower Retreat and Spa in Thailand, to get practical about what energy work feels like, why people doubt it, and how you can test it through experience instead of trying to “prove” it with perfect logic.  Tania Ho, shares how Reiki found her early, why she finally trained at 21, and how that first attunement changed the way she understood life, healing, and her own sensitivity. 

We also talk modalities and daily practice.  Tania Ho, explains what she loves about Magnified Healing, how she uses it alongside Reiki, and why meditation stays at the center of her spiritual routine. If you’re a healer, a lightworker, or simply a sensitive person who feels everything, we dig into energetic basics that matter in real life: grounding your energy, clearing energy, and protecting your energy so your gift doesn’t become exhaustion. 

Then we get honest about the business side of a wellness life.  Tania Ho, opens up about a difficult split with an ex-business partner who was also a teacher, how that shook her trust, and how rebuilding helped her reclaim purpose. She shares what she looks for when hiring or receiving from energy workers, why “walking your talk” beats a flashy credential, and why getting experience at a retreat center before renting your own space can save you years of stress. 

You’ll also hear where to find Tanya’s

Reiki can arrive in the most unexpected places and sometimes at the hardest time of your life. I’m joined by Lorena Rodrigo, a Reiki master, yoga teacher, and sound meditation practitioner based in the UK, whose path shifted when she received Reiki in the hospital during breast cancer treatment. She shares what it felt like to go into chemotherapy with Reiki support, why it helped her reconnect to her own energy, and how that experience turned into a lifelong commitment to deep listening and real presence.

We also get honest about the messy parts of the wellness world. Lorena and I talk about common Reiki misconceptions, why you don’t need “special powers” to practice energy healing, and how to spot green flags in a Reiki practitioner or teacher. If you’ve ever felt put off by labels, gatekeeping, or performative spirituality, you’ll appreciate her grounded take: find what you resonate with, trust your intuition, and choose practitioners who feel sincere and safe.

In our listener Q and A, we dig into sound healing and the nervous system, including how vibration can influence the vagus nerve, support the parasympathetic “rest and digest” response, and help the brain shift into meditative states through entrainment. Lorena also shares her go-to practices for overwhelm, her commitment to daily self-Reiki, favorite instruments, plus how to find her work, trainings, and retreat offerings.

Lorena Rodrigo is a Reiki Master and guide of sound and stillness — a certified Sound Meditation Guide and teacher of Anusara, Yin, Pregnancy and Restorative Yoga, based in Reading, UK. Her work is devoted to the art of listening as a pathway into presence, attunement and subtle awareness.
Rooted in Reiki mastery, Lorena approaches vibration as a universal language — waves of resonance moving through the vast ocean of consciousness. Through this lens, her offerings invite participants to experience sound not only as something heard, but as something deeply felt, creating space for the body, mind and energy field to settle into natural harmony.
Through an intuitive weaving of breath, gentle movement and sound, Lorena creates immersive and nurturing spaces that encourage deep rest and inward exploration. Her sound meditations unfold as sensory journeys where time softens and awareness expands.
Drawing on the rich overtones of gongs, crystal and Tibetan singing bowls, harp, shamanic drums, rain sticks and voice, Lorena guides participants through layers of vibration that support nervous system regulation, inner clarity and profound stillness — inviting each person to listen to the subtle tides moving within and around them.

The fastest way to lose confidence in your Reiki path is to feel like you have to do it “the one right way” or wear a title that doesn’t even fit. I’m joined by Carrie Varella, founder of Reiki Healing Society, co-host of the Reiki Women Podcast, and creator of the GoPro Reiki mentorship program, for an honest conversation about what it means to grow as a Reiki practitioner and build a sustainable Reiki business without getting trapped by hierarchy, hype, or rigid rules.

We talk about how Reiki found Carrie through yoga, what it’s like to study multiple Reiki lineages (including the shift into Holy Fire Reiki), and why one of the biggest Reiki misconceptions is confusing Reiki energy healing with spiritual mediumship. We also get into the online Reiki training debate after COVID: what changes, what stays the same, and why the real measure of a good Reiki course is whether students leave feeling clear, capable, and supported. If you’ve been searching for learn Reiki online, distance Reiki, Reiki attunement, or Reiki certification, you’ll hear a grounded take that centers ethics and accessibility.

Then we go deeper into the language we use. Carrie shares why she no longer feels called to use the term “Reiki master,” how decolonization principles can help us question titles and power dynamics, and why cultural appropriation matters in the world of Reiki and yoga. We close with practical Reiki business support: mentorship, community, income streams, and the upcoming Reiki Business Summit where practitioners can connect and grow together.
Carrie Varela is the founder of the Reiki Healing Society, co-host of the Reiki Women Podcast and creator of the Go Pro with Reiki Mentorship Program. She is a Reiki practitioner, Reiki teacher, yoga instructor, Vedic astrologer, mother, mystic and modern day healer. She inspires people to connect with spirit, nature and their truest essence through Reiki, Yoga & Vedic Astrology. Carrie has had the privilege to study many diverse lineages of Reiki. In 2023, she traveled to Japan to tour the sacred sites of Reiki—an experience that was both incredible and life-changing. 

With over 15 years of experience as a solo practitioner and woman-owned small business owner, Carrie is passionate about supporting emerging and existing Reiki professionals navigate the creative process of building a thriving Reiki business. She believes that maintaining courage, joy and resilience comes more easily when you have the right support. With guidance, inspiration and community your growth as a Reiki pro is only a matter of time.

Two hundred episodes doesn’t happen by accident. It happens when you keep showing up, especially after grief, fear, and the moments where you wonder if you can even speak with confidence again. I’m Tracy Seawright, and this anniversary reflection pulls back the curtain on why Ready Set Reiki exists, how it grew, and what I’ve learned from building a Reiki and energy healing podcast rooted in service rather than sales.

I share the surprising push that started it all, including a “pay-to-play” media pitch that didn’t sit right, and why I chose to create a free platform where Reiki practitioners can share their stories at no cost. Along the way, I talk about my own Reiki journey, from early exposure to Reiki, to returning during the pandemic, to moving through deep grief and rebuilding confidence through daily self-Reiki, prayer, and consistency. If you’ve ever felt called to help others while still healing yourself, you’ll recognize that path.

We also get practical. I break down what Reiki is (universal life force energy), why it’s a stress-reducing complementary therapy, and how to start in a way that feels safe and clear. We talk about choosing between in-person and online Reiki sessions, finding an ethical Reiki practitioner, asking what a session includes, and exploring Reiki training options like Usui Reiki and Holy Fire Reiki. I also name common misconceptions, explain intuitive vs systematic styles, and remind you that Reiki respects free will.

If this resonates, listen through, share it with someone who needs calm, and then subscribe and leave a review so more people can find Reiki, self-healing tools, and supportive community. What part of your journey needs more consistency right now?

Your home can look fine on the outside and still feel wrong in your body. If you’ve ever walked into your own space and felt your shoulders tighten, your energy drop, or your mind start racing, you’re not imagining it. I sit down with Lisa Morton, a feng shui master teacher, holistic interior designer, and Reiki master, to talk about what “aligned at home” really means when real life is messy, stressful, and loud. 

Lisa shares her journey from designing luxury private jet interiors to finding energy healing through Reiki during a period of burnout, anxiety, and perfectionism. We talk about the moment Reiki finally made her feel lighter, why that experience pushed her to train, and how she began experimenting with Reiki in houses before going deeper into feng shui and distance space clearing. Along the way, we explore what to look for in a Reiki practitioner or teacher, and why genuine connection matters more than doing everything “the right way.” 

From there we get practical. Lisa breaks down instinctive feng shui, how a bagua map can overlay your floor plan like an energetic compass, and why virtual feng shui consultations can be surprisingly powerful with nothing more than a conversation and a simple layout. We also answer listener questions about her Intuitive Home Method, a 30-day transformation that helps you look past décor and into what your body and family actually need. And yes, we go there: cacti, poison arrows, and how sharp shapes can subtly stress your nervous system over time. 
Lisa Morton is a designer, Feng Shui master teacher, and the creator of the Intuitive Home Method. For 20+ years she's transformed homes, businesses, and even luxury private aircraft interiors. Her superpower is blending grounded design with distance space clearings and Feng Shui so your home supports your health, momentum, and joy. Lisa works with clients worldwide, is the host of the Feng Shui Living Podcast and the author of Aligned at Home, a book on creating deeply aligned, high-vibe homes.
