With Carrie Varela
Founder of the Reiki Healing Society
Meet Carrie Varela,
Founder of the Reiki Healing Society
Hello & welcome! I’m Carrie Varela—a Reiki practitioner and teacher, yogini, Vedic Astrologer, co-host of the Reiki Women Podcast, and founder of the Reiki Healing Society. Beyond titles and definitions, I am a student and teacher of wisdom traditions that help us remember who we truly are.
I help Reiki enthusiasts, students, practitioners, and teachers deepen their relationship with Reiki, strengthen their practice, and feel more confident sharing this work with others.
My Reiki courses are rooted in a traditional Japanese approach, with an emphasis on foundational Reiki techniques, philosophy, historical context, and plenty of opportunities to embody the beautiful healing energy that Reiki provides.
Reiki has traveled across cultures and generations, and along the way, many different interpretations, practices, and teachings have emerged. It has also been blended with a wide range of energy healing modalities and contemporary spiritual ideas. For many practitioners, this can make it difficult to understand what is foundational to Reiki and what has been added along the way.
This is one of the reasons I was inspired to create the Reiki Healing Society community: to offer a space where we can return to Reiki’s Japanese origins and explore the practice through its techniques, philosophy, history, and spiritual context. My intention isn’t to tell you what your Reiki practice must look like, but to give you a strong foundation from which you can explore, question, and develop your own relationship with Reiki.
For more than 15 years, I’ve also had the privilege of building and sustaining my own healing arts practice. Today, I’m passionate about supporting emerging and established Reiki professionals as they navigate the creative process of building meaningful, sustainable businesses through the Go Pro with Reiki Mentorship Program.
Thanks so much for being here and welcome to the Reiki Healing Society!
The Reiki Healing Society helps you to get more connected to your truest essence, and feel empowered to live your life from that place.

Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. Reiki can help provide healing energy for any injury or illness, improve your clarity, focus and mood, energize you when you are burnt out or feel depleted. Reiki can also be used to encourage balance, stimulate mindfulness, reduce anxiety, depression and help you find a greater sense of inner peace.
Enjoy the stress relieving benefits of Reiki and take your energy into a positive, healthy and peaceful space!
Mentorship for Aspiring Reiki Practitioners
Go Pro With Reiki is a program designed to help you transform from a student of Reiki into a Reiki practitioner. Journey with me for six modules as I lay out a roadmap for success in your Reiki career.
Learn how to truly place a value on your time, sharpen your skills as a practitioner, receive made-for-you spreadsheets to keep track of your business finances, create the interior structure of making a living from a spiritual discipline, and work through your blocks to build the business and lifestyle of your dreams.
Learn Reiki
Learning Reiki is a milestone on your journey toward a happier and healthier you. Reiki provides a complete system to understand how & why spiritual energy can support both your own healing and the healing of others.
My Reiki courses offer a traditional Japanese approach to learning and practicing Reiki. It’s great for beginners who want to learn how to practice Reiki, and it is also suitable for those who have taken a Western Reiki course before and want to understand Reiki as it was taught by Usui Sensei prior to Western influence.
Jae Energy Coaching & Reiki
"I highly recommend Carrie Varela and the Reiki Healing Society! Her commitment to lineage, history, and authentic facilitation of the art of Reiki healing is profound. She is a self-professed Reiki nerd & I am all about it.
The tools of Reiki now come with me in all my coaching sessions, meditation and enhances clarity & trust my intuition. Reiki changed my life in profound ways. Reiki was the internal guidance & loving support I needed to heal, also to find the strength within to grow through my challenges."
Denise Olsen from Serein Counseling
"I highly recommend Carrie as a Reiki teacher and healer. My experience working with her has been truly transformative.
When I first began sessions with Carrie, I was carrying both physical and emotional burdens that felt heavy and difficult to navigate. Through her work, she helped me begin to release those blocks and reconnect with a sense of balance and healing.
As someone living with an autoimmune condition, I found Reiki to be incredibly calming for my nervous system. Carrie helped me understand how this state of calm can create an opening for the body to begin healing. Her approach is thoughtful, intuitive, and deeply compassionate.
What sets Carrie apart is not only her skill as a healer, but also her dedication as a teacher. Under her guidance, I have learned how to use Reiki in my own life, allowing me to continue supporting my healing from home.
Since incorporating Reiki into my life—alongside medical care and other supportive practices like sound healing—I have experienced a noticeable reduction in inflammation and an overall improvement in my well-being. Reiki has become a meaningful and empowering tool in my personal health journey.
Carrie is empathetic, intuitive, and has an incredible ability to attune to the areas that need the most care and attention. Her work has not only supported my own healing, but has also inspired me to extend that care into my community. I am deeply grateful for her guidance and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking healing or interested in learning Reiki."

The Reiki Women Podcast
“Heal yourself with the light of the sun and the rays of the moon. With the sound of the river and the waterfall. With the swaying of the sea and the fluttering of birds. Heal yourself with mint, neem, and eucalyptus. Sweeten with lavender, rosemary, and chamomile. Hug yourself with the cocoa bean and a hint of cinnamon. Put love in tea instead of sugar and drink it looking at the stars. Heal yourself with the kisses that the wind gives you and the hugs of the rain. Stand strong with your bare feet on the ground and with everything that comes from it. Be smarter every day by listening to your intuition, looking at the world with your forehead. Jump, dance, sing, so that you live happier. Heal yourself, with beautiful love, and always remember ... you are the medicine.”
— María Sabina, Mexican healer and poet
