Second Nature Reiki

Healing that feels natural, practical, and quietly magical

Second Nature Reiki is a nature-based form of Reiki that helps you come home to yourself—so you can calm your nervous system, clarify your inner knowing, and open into the universal healing energy that flows through Nature and all of life. This healing isn’t something you create or control; it’s something you learn to receive and share, allowing it to move through you in ways that are natural, gentle, and deeply supportive. 

This is not about fixing what’s broken. It’s about remembering what’s whole.

If you’re someone who:

  • Cares deeply about people and the world

  • Senses more than you can easily explain

  • Feels unsettled by the current climate of conflict, urgency, and division

  • Longs for a way to help that doesn’t burn you out

You’re in the right place.

You’re not too much. You’re tuned in.

Many of the women who find their way here are perceptive, thoughtful, and compassionate. You notice nuance. You feel the undercurrents in rooms, conversations, and relationships. You may struggle with boundaries—not because you lack strength, but because you feel connected.

In a culture that rewards speed, volume, and certainty, your way of being can feel out of step.

What if it isn’t?

What if your awareness, empathy, and depth are not liabilities, but the raw material of healing?

What is Second Nature Reiki?

Second Nature Reiki is a form of Reiki grounded in the truth that we are all healers. You can develop that ability by connecting with yourself, with Nature, and with the shared field of life we all participate in.

It is:

  • Gentle, yet profoundly effective

  • Grounded and practical

  • Rooted in Nature as an intelligent, personal, living ally

In this work, the traditional hierarchy of “Master” and “Student” dissolves. Healing is not something given to you by someone else—it arises through presence, listening, and connection.

You don’t need special powers, and you don’t need to become someone new.

You already have access to healing; Second Nature Reiki simply helps you remember how to receive it.

Where this work came from

I grew up in a challenging and abusive home. From an early age, I had a strong sense that something wasn’t right and an equally strong longing to feel whole. I didn’t have language for it then, but I was already listening for healing.

That listening drew me into the world of healing work. At first, I hoped it would help mend what felt broken in me. What I discovered—quietly and to my great relief—was that healing isn’t something we do to ourselves. The most natural, reliable way I found to heal was to support others in healing themselves. In that shared space, something wonderful happened: I healed, too.

I’ve been an integrative therapist and healer for over forty years, and I was initiated into Reiki in 1991. Like many people, I didn’t fully understand how it worked at first, but I knew it was real. Reiki changed my life. It strengthened my intuition, deepened my trust in what I sensed, and gave me practical ways to support healing in myself and others.

Years later, after teaching and practicing Reiki for a long time, something unexpected happened. Mikao Usui, the founder of Reiki, came to me in a very clear vision. He asked me to help bring forward a new form of Reiki—one based in Nature, where the hierarchy of Master and Student dissolves, and healing is available to everyone, anytime.

I didn’t rush this; I listened. 

Being in Nature showed me that healing flows naturally when we enter into relationship with her.

On the Spring Equinox of 2021, a small group of women and I began listening together. We didn’t set out to create something grand; we simply followed what was being revealed.

What unfolded surprised all of us.

Relationships softened and became more light-hearted. Long‑held patterns loosened. Old wounds healed without force. Boundaries began to arise naturally—from clarity and self‑respect rather than effort or defense.

Second Nature Reiki revealed itself not as something to achieve or master, but as something to receive, trust, and allow.

What people often experience

While everyone’s experience is unique, many women describe:

  • Feeling calmer and more grounded in daily life

  • A renewed sense of inner steadiness

  • Clearer boundaries that are authentic and lift everyone

  • Trust in their own inner guidance

  • A sense of being supported by something larger than themselves

Second Nature Reiki isn’t dramatic. It’s quietly life‑changing.

A gentle invitation

If this speaks to you… If something in you felt recognized rather than explained…

You’re warmly invited to explore Second Nature Reiki through sessions, gatherings, or study.

Come as you are. Nature will do the rest.
