The Joy of Reiki
The moment when someone taps into Reiki for the first time and is guided where to place their healing hands. After the healing, the person receiving Reiki responds, "Oh, it's so funny you went there. I had surgery there years ago and always have pain in that one area." Observing the raw vulnerability that takes place as healing unfolds, watching the cycle of energy shift from discomfort to release, and the clarity and peace that follows. The support from fellow students. The bonding of classmates. Each group comes together for a reason, with a shared connection, known or unknown, yet always revealed. Perhaps the most beautiful - the evolution that occurs after training. Observing each person live a guided life and becoming a fuller version of themselves.
That is the joy of teaching Reiki.
Your sensei, Cara

All of our Reiki trainings are held in person at our Chicago healing center, offering a fully immersive experience that seamlessly blends healing with learning. Rooted in Usui Reiki and the updated Holy Fire for World Peace system, our trainings provide both foundational and modern approaches to this natural healing method.
At Soul House, it is a core value to empower the student to become both the teacher and the healer.
Reiki is a form of energy healing that guides, nourishes, and heals.
Offered through hands on touch or a guided healing meditation, Reiki is led by a higher intelligence (“Rei”) to send energy exactly where it is needed most to restore the balance in one’s energy field (“ki”). Reiki is commonly described as a deeply relaxing experience that heightens spiritual connection and intuitive gifts. It has the ability to heal across all levels, including physical ailments, mental imbalances and emotional traumas. Reiki works to restore byoki “unhealthy energy” into genki “healthy energy”. In it’s essence, Reiki guides you in alignment with your authentic self, while healing anything masking that truth.
What is Reiki?
Cara Kalnow
Molly began studying Reiki in 2011 with the goal of using what she learned to support her massage clients and family members. As she began to work with energy, a new level of awareness emerged, and she realized that Reiki came into her life to teach her how to care for herself. Reiki not only allowed Molly to acknowledge old wounds but also provided a simple but profound tool to work with those wounds, which ultimately has given her the gift of connecting more fully and deeply to herself.
Molly’s teaching style is interactive and experiential, and she emphasizes what she has found most useful in her own post-traumatic healing and growth: consent, curiosity, connection, and embodiment. She is interested in her students’ and clients’ moment-to-moment physical, emotional, mental, and energetic experiences because that’s where the juice -- and the potential for internal shift -- lies.
Molly’s Reiki training is varied and includes Usui levels 1 thru 4 beginning in 2011, Holy Fire II Karuna training with William Rand in 2018, and Shinpiden Reiki III with Frans Stiene in 2019. In addition to teaching and practicing Reiki, Molly works as a massage therapist and somatic trauma healer and is also a certified Forrest yoga teacher.
