    The Not So Zen Side of Death
    Sep 8 2025

    In this episode of Not So Zen, Melissa, the advocator, opens up about her experience with reiki at death when Alia, the healer, gave her father Reiki just days before he passed. From that personal story, we dive deeper into Reiki as a practice that clears low vibrational energy and raises our frequency — a pathway toward the higher consciousness New Earth is calling us into. It’s real, it’s raw, and it’s a reminder that even in moments of loss, healing and light are possible.
