Usui Holy Fire III Reiki Master

Jessie Lem Niscate

[Rei]ki has no master (it is purely 'guided') and true healers don't heal (they 'hold space' for you whilst you heal yourself.) Jessie honours these tenets through her practice, Moth to Flame Reiki Healing, where light attracts light. Some days it may seem we're flying blind in the dark; reiki healing clarifies us so we remember we're flames, not moths.
