Episode #177 Georgia Vlahos How One Healer Rebuilt A Life And A Practice Through Energy Work
Manage episode 518574078 series 3462557
What if a single class could reroute an entire life? Georgia shares how a small Reiki workshop in the 90s became the catalyst for decades of healing and teaching across Reiki, astrology, and tarot. We explore the tangible realities behind the practice—why lineage matters, how to spot red flags in training, and what responsible support looks like when a healing crisis surfaces after attunement. It’s an unvarnished look at growth that is spiritual and practical at once.
We open up the map of access and ethics. California’s hospitals welcome Reiki volunteers; Florida requires a massage license for hands-on work, shutting the door on experienced practitioners. Georgia walks us through the pivot from a thriving classroom community to an online practice after lockdowns, all while holding firm to a core principle: keep Reiki free and available where possible, and keep the boundaries clear. The contrast points to a larger truth many healers face—how to honor the work amid laws, bias, and fast-track certifications that skip mentorship and integration.
The conversation dives into the subtle mechanics of intuition. Georgia describes Level 1 as physical, Level 2 as emotional, and Level 3 as spiritual—often opening the crown and a felt sense of oneness. That opening supports stronger insight for tarot and astrology, especially when learning shifts from memorized meanings to direct perception. We talk about choosing teachers, building real experience through circles, and staying humble about what Reiki can and cannot do. Along the way, Georgia shares stories that reveal the heart of the practice: care, courage, and a deepening connection to everything around us.
If this resonates, follow the show, share it with a friend who’s curious about energy work, and leave a review to help others find Ready Set Reiki. Your stories and questions shape where we go next—what do you want us to explore?
