The Journey of Healing and Service: The Life of Lauren Purcell

Lauren Purcell has dedicated her entire life to the pursuit of service, embodying a profound sense of humility and gratitude throughout her spiritual journey. Her path took a significant turn following a life-altering car accident in 2011, which served as a pivotal moment that reshaped her understanding of healing and wellness. This traumatic experience initiated an extensive six-month healing process during which she discovered the transformative power of meditation. It became clear to her that meditation was not just beneficial but essential for her recovery, playing a vital role in helping her regain cognitive functions that had been affected by the accident.

Motivated by the remarkable benefits she experienced through meditation, Lauren took it upon herself to share these gifts with others. Over 15 years ago, she established a welcoming home studio where she could teach and guide students on their own journeys towards mindfulness and healing. In addition to meditation, Lauren recognized the value of integrating holistic practices into her teachings; thus, she pursued certification in holy yoga in 2017. This unique blend of yoga with spiritual elements allowed her to create classes that resonated deeply with participants.

One particularly memorable class led Lauren to an unexpected yet powerful surge of reiki energy during Shavasana—a restorative pose at the end of yoga sessions—prompting her to delve deeper into this practice. Inspired by this experience, she decided later that same year to begin teaching reiki herself and subsequently earned her master teacher certification in 2018.

Continuing on this path of lifelong learning and personal growth, Lauren sought out shamanic training at Light Song School. Today, she offers an array of classes designed to cater to various interests and needs within the community; these include Reiki levels one and two for beginners as well as advanced master classes for those looking to deepen their knowledge. Additionally, she teaches specialized sessions such as animal Reiki—focusing on healing pets—and guided meditations aimed at enhancing relaxation and mindfulness.

Lauren’s offerings extend beyond traditional classroom settings; she also incorporates gentle movement practices into her curriculum along with holy yoga sessions infused with spirituality. Furthermore, recognizing that everyone’s wellness journey is unique, Lauren provides both in-person appointments for Reiki treatments and shamanic healing experiences while also offering virtual options so clients can access these transformative modalities from anywhere they are located. She even includes distance-based services designed specifically for individuals who may not be able or willing to travel but still wish to benefit from holistic healing practices regardless of their geographical situation.
Lauren recently shared with her Master Reiki class ,” I feel that one of my greatest strengths is the level of dedication that I model out in my every day
life. The frequencies and nature of the Reiki energy that is continuously flowing in and through
me creates a blanket of hope for me and for others around me.
Dedicating my heart, mind, soul, spirit and strength to communicate with the universe, the
beautiful nature, and essence of the healing Reiki energy. The light of the earth and heavens
unite in our heart space as we pour out as Reiki practitioners into the lives of our patients,
clients, and students. Have you ever noticed how divinely synchronized the patients, clients,
and students are who are drawn to your practice? I’ve noticed that in my every day practice that
the law of attraction applies. That nothing is coincidental. But rather that not only for your
patients, clients, students benefit from the Reiki energy that is channeled through the
practitioners, but we also as practitioners receive healing as we are giving Reiki.
Gentleness is one of my greatest strengths that I practice daily as a spiritual discipline.
I have been gifted with a very gentle soul, very clear & soft energy.
That energy has taught me that one of my strengths in my Reiki practice is to have many
different gears. It has guided me when to speak messages that I receive, and when not to
speak. It has taught me the different colors and threads of discernment that we need to exercise
in our every day Reiki practice. The Reiki energy has taught me when it is appropriate or
inappropriate to “step up“ into leadership, and when it is time to “step down and step back“.
Divine mother earth has taught me a very gentle kindness that I base my Reiki practice on,
which is gratitude, humility, kindness and unconditional love. I integrate into my daily Reiki
practice all of these ingredients. And one of the prayers that I begin my practice with every day
is “how can I become a hollow bone“ to serve better in this middle world for others, for Jesus, myself and others. “
