EPISODE 71: DIVE INTO REIKI WITH GWEN ALLISON

Gwen Allison is the founder of My Spiritual Butterfly and a CHNC-verified Usui Reiki Master Teacher, trained in both Eastern and Western lineages.
Her spiritual path began over 15 years ago, sparked by teachings like The Law of Attraction, The Secret, and the work of Dr. Joe Dispenza. But like many of us, her practice deepened through lived experience — a divorce, the loss of loved ones, and a sudden redundancy that asked her to rebuild from the inside out.
In 2008, she became a Transformational Life Coach, supporting women over 40 in reconnecting with their purpose and creating lives that feel more aligned and fulfilling.
She began practicing Reiki in 2015 and has since taught all levels, led workshops and retreats, and developed a Professional Reiki Diploma that allows practitioners to work in UK hospitals.
At the heart of her work is a simple intention: to make Reiki something natural and accessible — something that belongs in everyday life, not just special spaces.
Here is her website, her Youtube channel and her Instagram.
And here is the link to her monthly class.

Nathalie Jaspar, the founder of Dive Into Reiki,  is a Reiki master with over a decade of experience. She’s a graduate teacher from the International House of Reiki, led by world-renowned Reiki master Frans Stiene. She also trained with the Center for True Health and the International Center for Reiki. To gain an even deeper understanding of Reiki practice, Nathalie went to Japan to practice Zen Buddhism at the Chokai-san International Zendo. She is the author of Reiki as a Spiritual Practice: an Illustrated Guide, Reiki Healing Handbook (Rockridge Press), and Infinite Light: Conversation with 21 Reiki masters and practitioners.

EPISODE 62: MARIE KYOKO MOROHOSHI
Born to Japanese immigrant parents, Marie Kyoko Morohoshi is a sacred activist and queer Nisei (second-generation) Japanese American Reiki Master and Teacher. Her Reiki practice is informed by years of rigorous Zen, Chado (Way of Tea) and Ikebana (Way of Flowers) training she received at an early age.
She has participated in key social justice movements such as Standing Rock, Mauna a Wākea, and Run4Salmon, bringing her healing work to those in need.
Marie is dedicated to training BIPOC, LGBTQ+, and white allies in Reiki, focusing on a holistic, nature-based approach that reconnects students with the practice's shamanic and Buddhist origins. Her unique retreats combine Reiki with Shinto, Shugendo, and Lakota purification rituals—an organic and syncretic approach to reconnecting to our true selves, these practices help prepare any student or seasoned practitioner of Reiki to simply be Reiki.

In 2010, he graduated in Interreligious Spirituality (Radboud University Nijmegen), continued in 2011 as an external PhD Candidate, and obtained his doctorate in 2016.
