In this episode of Rooted & Wild, we return to the origins of one of the most influential healing lineages in the world: Usui Reiki. Guided by the luminous presence of Stephanie Ulven, we explore what it truly means to tap into “the original flow” — the pure, unbroken current of universal life force that forms the heart of traditional Usui practice.

Stephanie Ulven is a multidimensional healer, educator, and holistic practitioner whose work is rooted in a rich, global, and deeply diverse lineage of energetic and integrative healing arts. Her journey spans thousands of hours of formal training across Reiki, Egyptian and shamanic energy medicine, sound and meditation therapies, emotional healing modalities, and end-of-life support. Guided by renowned teachers and institutions around the world, Stephanie brings a rare depth, wisdom, and integrity to every healing space she creates.

Her foundation in energy work is extensive. She is a Sekhem/Seichim Egyptian Energy Healing Master Educator and Kundalini Reiki Master Educator, both under the mentorship of Professor Krishna N Sharma. She received her Usui Reiki Master Educator and Crystal Reiki Master Educator certifications through Lisa Powers, and trained in Karuna Ki Reiki with Aimee Phlegar. She is also certified as a Chakra & Traditional Seichim Healing Therapist through POBA, giving her a broad and nuanced understanding of the subtle body and its energetic systems.

Stephanie’s approach also integrates evidence-based emotional healing modalities. She is an EFT Tapping Facilitator and Coach, trained by psychotherapist Mark Casey, and a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Coach/Practitioner, certified by Priority Academy. These tools allow her to bridge energetic healing with grounded psychological support.

Her work expands into meditative and vibrational practices as a Meditation Practitioner/Educator and Certified Sound Therapy & Sound Healing Practitioner, trained through Virtued Academy International.

In the realm of natural and ancestral medicine, Stephanie is a Certified Homeopath through Dr. Paul Greham and has trained in shamanic pathways as a Shamanic Holistic Health Practitioner under Rev. Dr. Bonnie Russell, as well as through Shamanic Energy Medicine Journeywork with Silke Schwarzkopf.

Her commitment to compassionate care also extends to life’s most tender thresholds. She is trained in End-of-Life Support, Grief Care, and Dissolving the Fear of Death, under the guidance of Fiona Whitmore and Jill Townsend.

Across all modalities, Stephanie’s work reflects her devotion to supporting emotional healing, energetic alignment, and spiritual growth. Her practice, Equanimity Wellness, is the home of this integrative tapestry—a place where clients are met with presence, depth, and a level of mastery that is both rare and deeply felt.
