Connecting to Spirit with Lisa Brandis | Channelling, Mediumship, and Intuition

The Energy Healing Moment That Changed Everything

Lisa Brandis Season 2 Episode 13

Discover Deep Soul Love Through Learning Intuitive Reiki
Story Time:  I share one of the most touching moments I’ve ever experienced while teaching Reiki. During a Reiki attunement in one of my workshops, a beautiful soul, a foster parent in his 50s who felt the love of his own soul for the very first time. It was a moment of pure awakening… and it changed both of us.

We’ll explore what Reiki attunement really is, how it opens the heart to deeper connection, and why these moments of spiritual remembering can lead to profound healing, self-worth, and inner peace.

Lisa Brandis:

At the end of the attunement, he kind of teared up when, and he was silent for a while as he listened to everyone. I was sharing their experience and then it came to his turn and we looked at him and you know, just curious as to what he experienced. And he just said, Hi, beautiful. I can't believe it's been a week already. Time is flying by. I have been pondering what I wanted to share with you on today's podcast episode of Connecting to Spirit. And I was reflecting on one of the very many beautiful experiences that I've been blessed with as a Reiki master teacher. A beautiful gentleman had in one of my Reiki classes, right after he was attuned to Reiki. So for those of you that don't know what an attunement is, a very sacred experience that happens in every Reiki workshop, whether you learn online or if you learning in person. And what it does is it's an energetic transference that connects you to the lineage of reiki. All the way back from every master through to my master, all the way back to the very founder of Reiki, which is Masui. So in the experience, what happens as you are, um, connected to. The, the power of reiki through a sacred experience. I can't go into the details of how it works, but what it does is it puts you back in connection with, I guess, the element of your soul and everyone's experience is totally unique. The way that I explain it in my classes is it's like you are tuned to pick up. At the moment, you're just static. If you look at it, uh, like a radio station, so there's static energy and a reiki master will attune you to the frequency that is reiki, like tuning in a dial. And when we get your system, your energetic system tuned into the frequency of. Reiki, it activates the energy and all of a sudden it's like hitting that radio station and getting that clear signal through. And then hearing that beautiful music, we get tuned into the aspect of our soul that we as humans, when we incarnate the, the veil is there and we forget who we are. This gorgeous man. He was in his fifties when he met me. He came in, I think there was only two men in this particular workshop. So I'd usually have about 30 women and a couple of men would come through. And what I would do is I'd do the, a achievement experience, and then afterwards we'd stand in a small group. I'd separate everyone. My masters would be there. And we'd be hearing everyone's experience. And it's always unique. And for me, the best bit of learning reiki is the attunement, is receiving it and sitting in that collective energy. So incredible. But second to that is hearing how people received it and what experiences came through to them while they were in that attunement experience. And I remember this one particular man's. Journey. He came at the end and he is very big, strong man. He was telling us that he actually, works with teenagers that. You know, that society has kind of, um, forgotten about and, and he would bring them into his home and, uh, he was, he would house'em for a while. Um, and he was telling us that. Yeah, so, so he used to take in these teenagers, uh, I can't think of what it's called at the moment. Um. Foster, he was a foster parent, so him and his wife would foster these children. And so he spent his life nurturing other people, loving people, especially those that, society had deemed as unlovable in some way, or their behavioral actions had caused'em to, to not really feel worthy of love themselves. At the end of the attunement he kind of teared up when, and he was silent for a while as he listened to everyone. I was sharing their experience and then it came to his turn and we looked at him and you know, just curious as to what he experienced. And he just said, he said, I'm nearly, or I'm 50 years old, and he said, I think that has to be the first time that I have truly ever felt deep soul love. And then he kind of welled up, and I don't know if it was that he hadn't been loved before, but it was the first time he felt worthy and fully opened his heart to receiving the love, you know, without anything needed from him. He accepted it for the first time.'cause I would imagine there's been others loved him in his life. It wasn't the first time he was loved. It was the first time he fully opened his heart to receive the love, and then he teared up. And then we were all in tears after because it was just such a, just such a powerful moment shared in that exquisite, um, sacred experience. And then. He kind of pulled me aside at the end of the class and he said, oh my gosh, Lisa. He said, I kind of feel a bit frustrated that I'm in my fifties and I've only, I've only learned about reiki now. I like, I wish I'd learn this modality 20 years ago. And I kind of said to him, now is the perfect time. You're here now and this is when it was supposed to be, but the reason I'm telling you this. Stories.'cause I can't tell you how many times I have met people that have said to me, I've been wanting to learn Reiki for 20 years. I've been thinking about this for a while now. I've had the push, I've had the impulse, I've had the knowing that this is meant for me and. For whatever reason, they put themselves at the bottom of the list. They put everyone else above them, and they don't do it until they get to a point where they've gone through usually their empty nesters, and they're like, okay, now, now it's time for me to follow my passion, my purpose, and do something that's just for me. So. If you can relate and you can understand, and if you've learned reiki before and you can remember that feeling of coming home to yourself, it's a, it's, it's a way that people have described it. Um, just pure joy and, um, just such a, just, just, there's just such a transference of peace. And it's the same whether it's, whether you're attuned online. In my workshops or whether you receive the in-person experience, which we offer as well. The online is done live for this very reason because you are face to face with me and you are receiving the attunement in real time, even though you may be on the other side of the world, which I think I hadn't taught in that way until COVID hit. And then I basically had my spirit guide, Onya tell me that love knows no bounds over and over again. When I was like, this doesn't work. I can't do it online. I need the touch. But what I learned is that energy, energy doesn't need to be in person. It feels exquisite when it is, but it's just as good, just as powerful. Online as well, and the sacredness of reiki. You learn the experience online, but you still take it home and you practice with the people you love the most with your animals, with your family, with your friends. And then as you progress through the system, I teach all levels right through to mastery that then you start to learn how to do this, um, and to help others and to earn a great income as a professional healer. So. The reason I've told you this story is'cause not many people know that there's this sacred, um, attunement experience in reiki. If they've heard about a reiki atunement, they don't know what it is. So I hope this has answered that question for you. I am running a masterclass, a one hour masterclass, that you can learn all about my style of reiki, which is intuitive reiki. It teaches you how to tap in and trust your intuition and how to activate the energy fast. If you would like to know more about that, I will pop the link in the bottom of this video. I hope you've loved it. I hope you enjoyed this story.
