Lion’s Gate Reiki Journey | Guided Shamanic Meditation for Heart Awakening and Soul Remembrance
In this episode of the Reiki Lifestyle® Podcast, Colleen Benelli shares the first of a 4-part series exploring Reiki and Shamanism, how they are different, how they overlap, and how they work together. Colleen takes you through her personal story of how she trained in Core Shamanism and then discovered Reiki. You'll hear how these two spiritual paths converged in her life, and how she now teaches integrated Reiki journey techniques using the Bridge of Light (HSZSN) instead of drums or rattles to access spiritual realms like the Third Heaven, River of Life, and Field of Possibilities. Highlights from this episode: * Colleen’s shamanic roots and global training with Indigenous teachers * How Reiki came into her life through her horse’s guidance * The differences between Reiki and Shamanism * How Reiki journeys use symbols, spiritual light, and divine guidance * Integrating Reiki with soul retrieval, spirit release, past life healing, and more * The Spirit Reveal Technique™ and how Reiki heals the soul’s history * Respecting traditions and honoring when Reiki is or isn’t invited into ceremonies Colleen also talks about the real-life challenges of traditional shamanic practices like sweat lodges and vision quests—and how Reiki offers a gentler yet equally powerful way to do spiritual healing and soul work. This series will continue over the next 3 weeks. Future episodes will dive deeper into: * Reiki journey techniques and how they differ from shamanic journeys * Spirit guides, power animals, and spiritual locations in the Third Heaven * Combining Reiki symbols with shamanic practices * How to use Reiki in ceremonies and soul-level healing If you're wondering how Reiki and Shamanism can complement each other, or if you're already integrating them, this discussion will help you clarify your own path and practice.
