The Pendulum of Time: Healing Ancestral Trauma for Our Descendants

With Karen Caig

Hosted by Andrea Kennedy

If we grew up with family dynamics that made us feel unsafe, invalidating our feelings and experiences, we can struggle to move past our personal and familial trauma. Explore concepts like ancestral trauma and learn how to become aware of transgenerational patterns that block us from becoming the best versions of ourselves using amazing Reiki techniques!

Karen Caig, a Licensed Reiki Master Teacher with the International Center for Reiki Training (ICRT), has been teaching Reiki since 2013. She retired from teaching college English for thirty years in order to pursue her Reiki career full time.

Reiki helped her heal, and she loves sharing this Japanese relaxation technique to help others heal, empowering them to achieve their divine purpose on Earth. Bringing her expertise in Reiki, teaching, writing, comparative literature, and language together, she teaches students from all over the world. She trains students in all levels of Usui/Holy Fire® Reiki as well as ICRT Animal Reiki, and she coaches clients in business and life transitions.
