Yolanda Williams on Reiki, Meditation and Self-Compassion
If you are looking for a deeper connection with yourself, this episode of Woman Worriers is for you. Host Elizabeth Cush welcomes Yolanda Williams, host of Reiki Radio, for a discussion of reiki, meditation and self-compassion.
“[Reiki] is really a beautiful system to help you learn to create a deeper relationship with yourself.”
Show Notes:
If you’ve ever walked into a room and sensed tension without anyone saying a word, you’ve already experienced how emotion impacts energy. Chances are, you’ve felt it in your own body, even if you didn’t recognize what it was, much less what to do about it. In this episode of the Woman Worriers podcast host Elizabeth Cush, LCPC, a licensed professional therapist, founder of Progression Counseling in Annapolis, Md., and a mid-life women’s life coach, welcomes Yolanda Williams, a certified medical reiki master, for a discussion of the Japanese energy practice of reiki and its benefits. They explore the intimate relationship between mind, body and life force; and how the practices of reiki, meditation and self compassion can help rebalance blocked energy so your body, your mind, your emotions—and your life—can flow more freely.
