What is Reiki?
Reiki is a Japanese energy healing modality that promotes healing and relaxation. It channels Chi, Prana, or Universal life-force energy to a recipient while they rest comfortably. Reiki works gently to heal mind, body, and spirit at all levels: conscious and sub-conscious, mental, emotional, physical, and energetic. It's sort of like acupuncture without the needles!
Reiki is safe for everyone, complements all other healing modalities, and effectively treats anxiety, depression, insomnia, chronic or acute pain, PTSD, grief, burn-out, and much more. Reiki boosts your immune system and encourages your body to heal itself.
Reiki recipients feel lighter, brighter, and more relaxed after a session, and it is quite normal to fall asleep during treatment. Sensations range from tingling, wavy pressure, heat, and heavy or floaty limbs, to visions of colors or a sense of spiritual awareness. Stepping out of the busy Beta brainwave, that "Fight or Flight" response, and shifting to an Alpha or Theta brainwave and the "Rest and Restore" mode, allows your Parasympathetic Nervous System vital time to work its healing wonders.
Sessions last about one hour, and you stay fully dressed with the exception of your shoes. My Reiki is hands-off, not only to honor your personal space but also to encourage deep relaxation into that wonderful Theta state.
The healing benefits continue beyond the session, planting positive seeds empowering you to make healthier choices, raising your inner-peace baseline, and inviting you to pause and respond intentionally rather than just reacting to the ups and downs of life. Reiki can help you break habits that no longer serve you, find forgiveness and acceptance with challenging people and situations, release old wounds and traumas, and craft a life of clarity and joy.
Reiki sessions are typically enhanced with specific crystals, essential oils, tuning forks, and singing bowls to assist in clearing and balancing chakras. When your energy is flowing properly, you simply feel better!
Reiki is not a religion, does not conflict with any religious or spiritual framework, and does not require belief to be effective. The energy meets you where you are, and goes where you need it to go.
For many people, actually feeling the energetic sensations throughout the body during a session can ignite the question: if this is real, what else is? It can be a springboard for spiritual awakening, and fuel personal growth and evolution.
Reiki not only treats the symptoms of "dis-ease" but also their emotional and energetic roots. It offers a safe, natural, non-invasive, and holistic approach to authentic wellness, and can help you become your favorite version of yourself. Give yourself permission to feel better!

Psychic Readings
The goal of a Psychic Reading is to provide clarity, insight, validation, divine connection, awareness, and inspiration… all to uplift, enlighten, and empower you on your journey. My goal is to help restore your connection to your soul-self, to remind you of your innate power, and to inspire joy and wonder.
There are infinite pathways to crafting the authentic expression of our highest selves, and a variety of marvelous ways to feel into the language of the soul. As we connect our energies to help you remember what your heart and soul already know, we will immerse ourselves in the unconditionally loving wisdom of the Universe.
Through Soul Journey Readings, we seek to glimpse into past lives and/or meet your Spirit Guides, Angels, or Spirit Animals (we all have a Spirit Team, whether we are aware of them or not). With Oracle Cards, we can illuminate details of your present and potential future life experiences. Together we will experience the power and presence of Spirit and connect to the wisdom of your higher self.

Medium Readings
Reach out to your loved ones in Spirit in a Medium Reading. Receive evidence of our eternal soul survival, as well as loving messages from family, friends, and even pets who have crossed over to the other side! We will send an invitation to specific loved ones, and we will share the wonder and experience profound healing as they bring treasured memories, personality details, validations of their continued presence, and personal guidance to my awareness for you.
Allow me to endeavor to bring your loved ones "back to life" with you for a few precious moments, as we share the story of your lives together. You may bring a photo or an item that belonged to your loved one to nourish the connection if you wish, though it is not required. Experience the power and presence of Spirit as we bridge the realms and reignite eternal bonds of love.

Reiki Certification Classes
Take your power back from your anxiety and depression. Improve your mental and emotional health, tune into your intuition, embrace your Authentic Self, and heal mind, body, and spirit through Reiki training. It's real, it's amazing, and you can do it.
Are you ready to feel better?
SO much more than just the basic manual instruction, my classes draw from a wide variety of resources and each one becomes a deep dive into personal healing. We explore the pragmatic as well as the poetic aspects of energy in a diverse and inclusive environment where each student is invited to organically make Reiki their own. There are no rules and no limits to the ways Reiki can enhance your life!
I didn't grow up seeing Spirit or having premonitions, rather, it was during my own Reiki training that my psychic and mediumistic abilities suddenly opened up! So I'm here to tell you that anyone who wants to develop their intuitive senses can do it, and Reiki can help! As Reiki attunements heal and clear energetic debris in the biofield, expand the capacity to channel higher frequency energy, and create a framework to calm the mind, they tend to empower and enhance intuitive abilities. So whether you are primarily interested in healing yourself and others, or your focus is more on psychic and mediumistic development, Reiki is a powerful tool to explore.

Medical Reiki
As a Certified Medical Reiki Master, I am qualified to be present before, during, and after your medical procedure. I will work directly with your medical team to gain the necessary permissions in order to provide energetic and spiritual support throughout your surgery, infusion, or other medical event.
The beneficial effects of receiving Reiki during medical procedures are vast, including stabilizing blood pressure, calming the Sympathetic nervous system, reducing pain and anxiety, increasing treatment efficacy, reducing recovery time, supporting calm and focused medical staff and family members, promoting healing, and much more.
When we feel better, we heal better!
The most prestigious medical facilities in the country, including Johns Hopkins, MD Anderson, Sloan Kettering, Mayo Clinic, and NYU now offer Reiki and many other complementary therapies. Here in Colorado, Reiki is part of the Integrative Medicine offerings at CU Anshutz Cancer Center, UCHealth Memorial Hospital, Denver Health Medical Center, and others. Reiki is one of the top three complimentary therapies offered in over 800 hospitals and medical facilities around the country.
Our pains and diseases frequently have emotional and energetic roots. We hold emotions and unresolved traumas in our bodies, and they can manifest into physical ailments. When we can address the deeper sources of physical problems, rather than simply treating the symptoms, we can affect true healing. Reiki works gently at all levels (conscious and sub-conscious, physical, mental, emotional, and energetic), empowering authentic wellness.
While there is a medical code for Energy Medicine, health insurance companies do not yet recognize it as part of their covered Integrative Medicine offerings. Therefore, my services will be an out-of-pocket expense. Reiki complements, and does not replace, medical care.
If you have a significant medical procedure upcoming, and want to receive Reiki support (onsite or at a distance), please contact me directly. Empirical data from prestigious medical centers around the world confirms that patients receiving Reiki have better vital statistics, need less pain medication, have shorter hospital stays, experience reduced anxiety/insomnia/depression, and report higher overall satisfaction with their care.
Medical Reiki is my passion, having seen it's amazing effects first-hand, and I am honored to serve on the leading edge of bringing holistic healing into the clinical environment.
Please tune in and listen here as I discuss Medical Reiki with the fabulous Ann Théato on the "Psychic Matters" podcast, on episode 68 "Bringing Healing Back to Medicine".

If you have a significant medical procedure upcoming, and want to receive Reiki support (onsite or at a distance), please contact me directly. Empirical data from prestigious medical centers around the world confirms that patients receiving Reiki have better vital statistics, need less pain medication, have shorter hospital stays, experience reduced anxiety/insomnia/depression, and report higher overall satisfaction with their care.
Medical Reiki is my passion, having seen it's amazing effects first-hand, and I am honored to serve on the leading edge of bringing holistic healing into the clinical environment.
Please tune in and listen here as I discuss Medical Reiki with the fabulous Ann Théato on the "Psychic Matters" podcast, on episode 68 "Bringing Healing Back to Medicine".

Psychic Medium
Hi, I’m Julie Speetjens and my motto is “Worry Less, Reiki More”. I began my healing journey when corporate burnout had me feeling like a robot just going through the motions of my life. Reiki has been a springboard to my spiritual awakening, and has renewed my life-force energy!
I didn't grow up seeing Spirit or having premonitions, rather, it was during my own Reiki training in my 40's that my psychic and mediumistic abilities spontaneously opened up! So I'm here to tell you that anyone who wants to develop their intuitive senses can do it, and Reiki can help! Formerly an Event Coordinator and IT Project Manager, I have become a Psychic Medium and I am utterly fascinated by all things Spirit. What greater healing can there be than to receive evidence that those loved ones who have crossed over are not lost to us after all? God, Source, Spirit (whatever you call it) works in amazing ways, and they never cease to amaze me. We truly are eternal soul beings, and our loved ones are eager to communicate! I invite you to be skeptical but receptive, to willingly suspend disbelief and journey with me into the incredible world of energy healing and mediumship. It's real and it's amazing.
I believe we are not a body with a Soul, but rather a Soul with a body. We are all here in our perfectly imperfect lives in order to learn, grow, love, create, and evolve. We often spend our lives searching for external happiness before realizing that we must create it within ourselves. Through my Reiki Master studies, I have released negative energies and destructive patterns that no longer serve my spiritual growth, and I have learned to consciously choose positive emotions and constructive actions. After all, the habits we create to survive no longer serve us when it’s time to thrive! I have given my inner-critic permission to be silent. I have learned to overcome my doubts, to trust my intuition, and to choose love over fear.
Reiki helped me recover from two major hip surgeries by alleviating my pain, calming my anxiety, promoting sound sleep, and empowering me to stop taking pain medicine and set aside my crutches weeks ahead of schedule. In 2021, I was able to be in the surgical suite giving Reiki to my younger son as he had all four wisdom teeth removed. He had minimal swelling, took no narcotics afterward, had no dry sockets or infection, was rock-climbing three days later, and eating almonds within the week! Whereas my older son had the same surgery with the same doctor years earlier before I had Reiki training, and he had an entirely different experience with four dry sockets, infection, significant swelling, and an extended recovery time. Reiki is a transformative force that truly can heal our minds, our bodies, and our Spirit if we allow it.
I trained and worked at The Reiki Place with Mary Spohn Fielder for two years, then opened my own studio in the Lotus Center for Wellbeing where I offered my services for two years. And now, I have a studio in the heart of downtown Colorado Springs!
It is quite normal for my Reiki clients to fall asleep, and all of them report feeling lighter and more relaxed afterward. Sensations range from tingling, wavy pressure, heat, visions of colors, and heavy or floaty limbs, to feeling a comforting presence in the room with us. In my sessions I sometimes meet a client’s Spirit Animal or receive intuitive guidance including positive affirmations, medical intuition, and book recommendations. It all comes with such incredible feelings of unconditional love and encouragement! Powerful validations strengthen a sense of peace, connection, and comfort for my clients, and fuel my wonder and gratitude for all that Reiki energy has to offer.
The healing power of Reiki energy is limitless, and I am beyond thrilled to offer Reiki Healing, Reiki Certification Classes, Psychic/Medium Readings, and Psychic/Medium Development classes both in-person and at a distance. I hope Reiki will help you fall in love with your life again, and that you will let me be part of that amazing journey!

Additionally, I am also a Registered Reiki Professional with the International Association of Reiki Professionals, the Reiki Healing Association, the International Reiki Organization, and The Center for Reiki Research.
Spirit has been encouraging me for years to write a book, and I'm proud to announce that I am about to be a published author in April of 2025 through Brave Healer Productions! My contribution to the "Intuitive Entrepreneur" is Chapter 3, "Team Spirit: Becoming an Epic Collaborator". A team effort with 21 other incredible lightworkers, it is a book that will inspire deeper connection for soul-driven success. Not only is it a collection of intriguing stories of spiritual awakening and entrepreneurship, it offers tools to promote your own healing and success.
I have created and hosted several online events, including “Zen Wednesdays” and “Soul Journey Sundays”, and I have had the honor of being interviewed on several podcasts including: "Psychic Matters", "Mediumship Sisters", “Sacred Connections”, “Journey to Wellness”, "Mediumship Matters", “The Sedona Files”, "Be the Love", “Floating On a Cloud”, "Message in the Middle", "Spirits Beside Us", "Business News Network", and "Brighter Day in the Neighborhood". I have also been featured in ShoutOut Colorado, Canvas Rebel, and Voyage Denver magazines, as well as on Fabulous Female Friday in the "Woman Up! Leading with Your Soul Community", "Mindset of Freedom for Women", and "Ladies Living Outloud" on Facebook. I had the honor of demonstrating mediumship with Ann Théato on "The Mediumship Hour" in September of 2024 and have been invited back for two more demonstrations in 2025.
Co-creating wellness and psychic mediumship development retreats and workshops around the world is one of my passions. I have hosted groups and taught Reiki and Psychic/Mediumship Development domestically in Arizona, Colorado, Hawai'i, Maryland, and New Mexico, as well as internationally in Costa Rica, Mexico, and Japan. Please follow me on Facebook and Instagram (@SoaringHeartEnergies) for the latest workshop and retreat updates.
I have a Bachelor of Science Degree in Environmental Science from the University of Alabama as well as Certificates in Energy Medicine, Music Therapy, and Sound Healing from the University of Colorado.
Through advanced, intensive mentorship programs with Tony Stockwell, I have explored the depth and breadth of many areas of the Intuitive Arts including: Advanced Trance Mediumship, New Frontiers, Demonstrating Mediumship, Pet Mediumship, and Therapeutic Mediumship. I have also studied with many other highly-esteemed teachers including: Judith Seaman, Janet Nohavec, Ann Théato, Suzanne Giesemann, Eileen Davies, Mia Ottoson, James Van Praagh, John Holland, Lynn Probert, Nicole Janssen DeHaas, Julian Jenkins, Josef Siegle, David Thompson, Martin Colclough, Steve Upton, Lauren Robertson, Simone Key, Colin Bates, Scott Milligan, Andrej Djordjevitch, Martin Tycross, Sharon Harvey, Angie Morris, and Pam Pollington. Additional professional influences include: John Edward, Esther Hicks, Dr. Sue Morter, and Michael Newton.
I have studied Mediumship at the Omega Institute in Rhinebeck, NY as well as at the internationally acclaimed Arthur Findlay College in Stansted, England. It was my honor to teach Reiki certification classes and Psychic/Mediumship Development in consecutive summers at the iconic Lily Dale Assembly. I have given Readings to hundreds and hundreds of people around the world, and I have a diverse and thriving student community that I lovingly call "The Woo Crew".
In Spring of 2024, I had the privilege of visiting Mount Kurama (the "birthplace of Reiki") where Mikao Usui, a Buddhist monk, was gifted with healing energy after 21 days of fasting and meditation exactly 102 years ago. It was beautiful, peaceful, educational, inspiring, sacred... and steep! SO many stairs! I led Reiki attunements there among the sacred Kami (Japanese cedar trees up to 800 years old), and felt a deep appreciation for my Reiki journey. It has truly changed my life, and opened up my world. Not to mention, the visit to Mt. Kurama healed a frozen shoulder that I had been suffering with for several years!
I am the U.S. PR Assistant to Tony Stockwell, a Spiritual Event Coordinator for Mains Gate estate on the eastern shore of MD, the Psychic & Mediumship Development Director for Healing Wheel Retreats & Travel, and I have served as the Program Director for LifeSpark Cancer Resources.

Mila the Dog Who Remembers Being a Horse
🤩 Mind blown. So it's common for beloved pets (incarnate and discarnate) to come through in Readings. And it's common for past life glimpses to come through in Readings for people. But today, I had the pleasure of doing a Reading for a woman whose beloved living dog completely dominated her Reading, talking about their past lives together! Meet Mila, who described her personality now and then showed me a glimpse of her galloping at crazy speed through the green hills of Scotland as a big black horse with white feathering above her hooves, with her owner on her back. That's gorgeous, but the best part... guess what her nickname is in this life?!
When Dogs Have Wings
Recently, I gave a Reading to a colleague and her beloved dog, "Moose", came through. I saw him loving the snow, lying on the couch, and gently taking care of kittens and birds. But the best part? He showed me this cartoon of a dog with wings, and she'd had almost that exact image printed on a mug in his honor after his passing! It was a beautifully unique way for him to demonstrate that he's still part of her life. Our pets come through just as creatively and intelligently and lovingly as our humans!
Howling for Healing
In a recent Reading, I found myself suddenly aware of a wolf spirit animal around my client. That's not unusual, but how it then informed her healing journey and the validation we received when I pulled this card was astounding. As the reading evolved, I found myself (very uncharacteristically) chanting/toning/howling one of the Reiki symbols for her... with my head back like a wolf. She's been struggling with vertigo, and the crystals in her ear are displaced. Her wolf came through to give her a powerful tool to vibrate them back into their proper place!
*YOUR* Suzanne Giesemann Event?!
Spirit never stops surprising and amazing me, but this one is truly remarkable...
Bishu and 42
When Lee-Anne Higgs created that amazing Spirit Guide portrait for me in early-June (scroll down to see it), it came with a typed Reading. In it, she shared that Monk mentioned a word that sounded like "Bishu" and neither of us understood what it meant, at first...
The Wooden Box
In a recent Medium Reading, I was bringing through several men in my Sitter's family when they brought my awareness to a special wooden box that had been handed down between generations, but my Sitter wasn't familiar with it. She made a note of it, and a few days later, guess what she discovered? It had been her Father-In-Law's and his Father's before that, and it was given to her husband after his Dad passed! You know they all had fun with that reveal!
The Eye of the Tiger
You can't make this stuff up! I recently had a tiger come through as a Spirit Animal for a woman during a Reading, encouraging her to wear a Tiger’s Eye bracelet to remind her to focus on self-love, self-worth, personal power, not shrinking, not being afraid to shine… and not only was she wearing a tiger’s eye bracelet that I hadn’t seen, she had pulled a card for herself before the reading and it was “Spirit of the Tiger”.
Personal Account of an Incredible Séance
My heart is still racing as I recall the events of the séance I attended at The Mains Gate at Langdon Farm in Sherwood, Maryland. “Séance”; a loaded word that conjures images of fraudulent trickery in dusty Victorian parlors. (I was skeptical too. Wait for it.)
Spirit Guides are REAL
Since my Reiki Master training in 2019, I have been aware of my primary Spirit Guide, who I simply call "Monk". I see him in my mind's eye as a kind and funny Buddhist Monk in saffron robes, reminiscent of the Dalai Lama. He stands beside me on my left when I work, giving Reiki healing sessions and Readings. He's come through other Psychics in a few Readings for me over the years, and it's a wonderful confirmation of his loving presence each time... powerful validation that he is real and I'm not just imagining him.
THE Amy Winehouse?!
A few years ago in a mediumship workshop, I was paired with a lovely British woman who asked me to bring through Amy Winehouse... 🤯🤩 They were best friends, so the love bond they shared made it a reasonable request. I was a bit nervous, as I have seen that Rockumentary and I love her music. But I gave it a go.
She's One of Us
I LOVE when Spirit steps in to save the day! 💖⭐️ A few years ago, I had the privilege of visiting the Arthur Findlay College with dear friends, with the added bonus of a few days in Paris. 🇫🇷 And the day we toured Versailles became one of those experiences that will forever be part of my "Spirit is Amazing" lexicon.
Mailbox Money
Such a Full-Circle moment for me! Twenty years ago, when my grandfather passed, I became fascinated with mediumship and watched every "John Edward Crossing Over" show, read all the books, and just assumed that I would spend a lifetime "on the outside looking in" as some incredible people displayed their mediumistic abilities. Then after reading one of John Edward's books, I said out loud to my grandfather in Spirit, "If this stuff is real, and you're ok, I need you to send me a check in the mail for $127.52 so I can buy two tickets to see John Edward...
The Crown
Spirit blows my mind! I was Reading for a client and became aware of a Spirit Guide-like energy for her that I couldn't quite put my finger on, as it didn't look like any of the divine feminine archetypes, angels, or Ascended Masters. It felt like my client's Higher Soul Self. I clearly saw her wearing a big gold crown made of moons and stars. ⭐️🌙 My client gasped in delight when I described it, and you can imagine my shock and joy when she showed me this photo of her (face cropped for privacy).
Mary Magdalene's Roses
🌹Such fun! I love when clients send me validation from a Reading. Yesterday, I felt a strong connection to Mary Magdalene during a session, and I felt that I had to acknowledge a painting that she had played a part in creating for the Sitter. I saw a woman's face with a "crown" made of big, beautiful, pink and white roses. My wonderful Sitter shared this photo with me, of a gorgeous painting that her son created for her! You just can't make this stuff up!
Yin Yang
Delightful! Today I gave a distant Reiki healing session to a woman who recently broke her right leg, just above the ankle. After the healing, which her cat also thoroughly enjoyed, I felt nudged to pull a card. Check out the Yin Yang symbol under the right foot of the woman on the card... that matches the tattoo on my client's right leg! A nod of encouragement to stay positive on her healing journey, to continue seeking balance, to trust that it serves a purpose and that all is well.
Smack me in the face with a Lotus flower, please
I love how the Universe sends us incredible signs and synchronicities when we need them most! When I was moving into my first solo studio space, I wanted to be sure that I landed in the right spot to grow my business and serve Spirit. As I flew across the country, I was reviewing the lease agreement for a potential space I had found in the Lotus Spa. I asked my team to smack me in the face with a lotus flower if they wanted me to sign the lease. I really like obvious and timely signs, and I didn't want it open to mis-interpretation.
The Saint of 9/11
I wondered if I would ever meet a Spirit who crossed on 9/11, and it was a powerful moment when I did...

Lipid Panel Comparison 2018 to 2022 - Julie Speetjens
It's amazing when we can measure and compare the physiological improvements of major lifestyle changes! Since I began my Reiki training, drastically cut back on alcohol, shifted from a Vegetarian to a Vegan diet, and pivoted from a frenetic corporate career as an IT Project Manager to being a full-time Reiki Master Teacher, every cholesterol value has decreased significantly to optimal levels! Cholesterol dropped from 213 to 153 Triglycerides dropped from 139 to 72 HDL dropped from 72 to 50 Non-HDL dropped from 141 to 103, and LDL dropped from 113 to 89 Reiki empowers us to make healthy choices, release habits that no longer serve us, and helps us live a life with peace, clarity, joy, and purpose. Our emotional and energetic health truly is tied to our physical health!
