Healing Through Reiki w/ Karen Beckles | CONNECTED

Hello to all of our phenomenal viewers, listeners, and supporters. If you are a new audience member, we are so grateful to have you. Welcome to another episode of “CONNECTED,” where we discuss all things mental health, recovery, employment, and stories. This show is sponsored by Contra Costa Behavioral Health Services, Kaiser, & John Muir.

Our guest today is Karen Beckles, a Reiki Master who has experienced a life-changing journey from a career at Rikers Island to finding healing through the power of Reiki.
Karen spent years as a Correction Officer, dedicating herself to a demanding and high-stress career. But after retiring, she faced a major wake-up call—a heart attack that led her to a Reiki session, where the practitioner told her she had a “broken heart.” It was a turning point. Karen realized that her career, which had once seemed like a great success, didn’t align with her values and had left her disconnected from herself.
In 2019, she turned to Reiki not just for healing, but to save herself. As she explains, in her time as a CO, she had learned to forget how to feel. Now, as a Level 3/4 Reiki Master, Karen helps others reconnect with their emotions and find peace.
Join us as we hear Karen’s powerful story of healing, personal growth, and how Reiki transformed her life. Let’s dive in!
