Energy Isn’t Woo — It’s the Missing Piece with Kandice Shaw  

An honest conversation about feeling stuck, staying small, and the energy beneath it all. 

Description: 
You’re not broken. You’re not lazy. And you’re not alone. 
But you might be ignoring a part of yourself that’s quietly calling for care. 

Most people know how to care for their physical health. Many are learning how to support their mental health. But there's a quieter layer beneath both — the energy body — that often goes unspoken, even though it's influencing everything. 

This session is grounded in a discussion of the role energy plays in how we feel, how we heal, and how we move forward.  

We’ll touch on Reiki — a simple, hands-on practice that supports healing and wholeness — not as a trend, but as a tool for real alignment.  We’ll explore how energy affects your clarity, your capacity, and your ability to show up for the life you want. 

This is an invitation to connect with your energy body — that subtle, often-overlooked layer that holds emotion, memory, and momentum.  Whether you’re new to this kind of work or just curious, you’ll leave with a deeper understanding of your full self — body, mind, and energy — and why caring for that whole picture is so vital.  

You’ll experience: 

• Insight into how stress, emotion, and burnout live in the energy body  

• A new lens for understanding resistance, fatigue, and forward movement  

• A guided practice to help you sense your own energy 

• A clear, non-performative introduction to Reiki
