For many years, I honoured the traditions of my lineage as a mainstream Reiki Master. Then I eventually couldn’t ignore what I felt any longer - that whisper that something wasn't quite right. The hierarchy. The gatekeeping. The implication that I needed someone else's permission to access power that was already mine.  Or “give” someone else permission to access what was already theirs.

After 5 years of co-creating with my Spiritual team, I made a choice that fundamentally changed everything: I stopped using attunements. And what I discovered challenged everything I'd been taught about worthiness, authority, and what it actually means to be a sovereign practitioner.

In this episode, I'm breaking down why mainstream Reiki attunements perpetuate Spiritual hierarchy, how they create dependency structures that keep practitioners small, and what happens when you reclaim your inherent power instead of waiting for someone else's validation.

This isn't about rejecting the Reiki tradition. It's about taking your power back within it.

By the time you finish this episode, you'll discover:

The hidden cost of hierarchical initiations -What attunements actually do (and what they don't), and why the dependency structure they create compromises your healing power

How external Reiki validation keeps you from sovereignty -Why needing someone else's permission to channel Reiki energy means you've already compromised your authority, how to reclaim that, and what happens when you stop outsourcing your worthiness

The difference between tradition and control -How the attunement system became a way to maintain power and charge premium prices, and why not everything that's been passed down deserves to be preserved

What "hollow bone" means in practice (not justtheory) - How bridging the Spiritual and earthly realms transforms you from drained practitioner to a hollow bone, and why most practitioners struggle with this without the right skills

What reclaiming your sovereignty actually looks like -How practitioners who choose this path become unshakeable in their confidence, intuitive clarity, Spiritual connection, and ability to show up as themselves and serve their clients from a place of genuine power (not permission)
