Speaker 1:Hello and welcome to another episode of Becoming Fearless. I am really excited. Today I have a guest expert episode to bring to your ears and it's this guest's first ever podcast interview. So I'm really privileged to be able to claim that space with Nikki as she enters the podcast world and shares all of her wisdom, all of her talents, with more and more people to create more and more impact in the work that she does, so that she can help more and more people. So, nikki, are you just okay to just introduce yourself and let people know a little bit about what you do.
Speaker 2:Yes, well, first of all, thank you very much, and that was an amazing introduction and I'm very excited. It is my first ever podcast, so thank you for inviting me on, and today I'm going to be talking about pranic healing and how I came into that journey, first of all, and then a little bit more about it and how it can help people in so many different ways in every aspect of their lives.
Speaker 1:Brilliant, so let's just touch on. I want to just touch first of all on energy that I talk a lot about on this podcast, but I just met Nikki. I saw Nikki at an event that I was speaking at and was aware of her, but I don't think we actually spoke at that event, did we?
Speaker 2:events. Um, we're facebook friends and we were like exchanging on facebook, and I've done for a little while, and then, when I saw you at the event, it was really lovely to see you in person and then and then we connected more again on on facebook. It was such a busy day.
Speaker 1:There's so much going on, oh my goodness it was, and I can remember we, um, we had a call. That was just like. I just want to know a little bit about what it is that you do, which is what I do with a lot of my guests. If I'm not, if somebody's brand new to my world or I haven't um seen them or spoke with them in detail, and I will kind of have a call with them to see whether they're the right kind of guest. And Nikki and I had this call and it was like we've known each other for years.
Speaker 1:It was just like oh, what about? This. It's just a real, you know, when you meet people and it's a really lovely um, mutual respect and bond, and that's kind of the journey um that Nikki and I have been on. That's very been very short, brief and pretty intense on some levels. So that's how I brought Nikki into the world. But if we start by um letting people know a little bit about your life pre-pranic healing so what was your life now? What was your journey like before you?
Speaker 2:um were aware of the whole um, this whole healing modality yes, um, for me, I've always been in self-help and wanting to be the best version of myself, and I think that that's really where the journey came from. I have trials and, you know, challenges, like everybody else in terms of my health, and I get I was smoking at the time for very many years and I've tried to give up numerous times and so doing a lot of self-help and kind of going under and and really looking, really looking at what drove all of those things, was really something that I wanted just to be the best version of myself really. So it started very much from that angle and I've always looked at different modalities and been very interested in kind of energy and how it works and studied some of them and each in their own right is great in its own right. But it was when I was doing a self-help course, you know, a self-development course and one of who's one of my teachers, now Master Stephen Coe, came on stage and he was talking about energy, energy, and he got us to feel this energy and all of a sudden I was like, oh my goodness, oh my goodness, this is something I definitely want to explore more of, and he was based over in the state.
Speaker 2:So I looked over in the uk and um found out that the institute of pranic healing uk and ireland was based here. My, my teacher, les flickcroft, um, was teaching down south and I was like my goodness, I need to go and have a look at this. And the more I learned there was different courses. You know, of healing there's all kinds of different courses. But I started off with the healing courses and the more I learned, the more I knew that there was more and more to learn.
Speaker 2:In fact the more that you you learn, you realize how much you don't know and how much more there is to know. And that's what makes it so amazing, because you never, ever stop learning. You know you never. There's not a time when you don't learn more. You can learn the basics, you can learn the techniques, but then there's much deeper levels, which is amazing. So from that, um I've I gave up smoking, which I was absolutely delighted, uh, to be able to do. My goodness, yes, that was some achievement. That was many, many years of um, yeah, not the best of times trying to give up, and then came across primary healing and and literally the craving, everything stopped and it just that was it. After the sessions, it was done. And then my physical health. You know, if there's anything that's ever going on, I'm able to. Everything I learn I can do with clients, I can also do on myself. So, yes, it's a wonderful tool to have in the box. It's all I can say on so many, so many different levels. But yeah, it started with health.
Speaker 1:So if, for me, so if people are listening as a lot of my listeners are curious, as am I, and they may never have even heard of pranic healing in any way, shape or form can you give like you give like a real simplistic overview of what it works or how it works with people so they could get an idea as to whether it's something that they'd like to explore?
Speaker 2:Absolutely so. Pranic healing, it's a transfer of energy from one person to another. So we know, have you ever been in a room where everything's uplifting and you're feeling good? And, alternatively, you walk into a room and there's a real atmosphere and the energy kind of drops. So we know that there's something that's kind of going on behind it and there must be a mechanism or formula to make this happen. So, master Chericox's, pranic Healing is a science of energy healing and it's based on principles, mechanisms, techniques and application. So that's where the science element comes from. So if you're feeling out of sorts and you have a chat, you know, with a, you feel better to a degree that that's a um, a level of healing that you've had. Or if a child hurts and you touch its knee, and a parent touched its knee and it comforts it with a, with a cuddle, it's, it's another, that's the child also feels better. So we know that there's something within, within the energy and the other thing to say is predominantly around the world right now. There's something within, within the energy and the other thing to say is predominantly around the world right now, there's.
Speaker 2:We know that there's 90% of illnesses and disease are stress related. So what is stress? Stress is an energy that's created in the body and we know that there's good stress and bad stress, and with pr pranic healing it gets stored in the body and with pranic healing we can help to remove this. So the pranic healing is based on the principle that the body can heal itself, which is amazing, and we learn techniques to be able to apply these by a step-by-step guide. So it's easy to apply and anyone can learn it, which is wonderful. And how? I kind of got into it, so you don't you you can just literally go and find a course. So there's nothing new about pranic healing.
Speaker 2:The techniques are ancient in origin and they were only known by a few, and the master Chowa Koksuwi, who's the founder of modern day pranic healing, brought it into the public domain in 1987 and since then it's it's spread to 106 126 countries worldwide, which is incredible, you know, in such a short space of time as well. So, master joe cox, he is a chemical engineer and a scientist and a very successful businessman, and he studied the inner teachings of modalities and religions over a 30-year period and carried out enormous amounts of analysis and then put this knowledge into a package called Pranic Healing and Arhatic Yoga, and from there it literally can transform all areas of your life, whether it's health, which we've spoken a lot about, but also relationships, finances and spirituality. So it covers all aspects, which is what really piques my interest. You know, when Master Stephen Coe first came on the stage and he was talking about it and then I went to learn more about it, so it's absolutely, it's incredible. It's incredible and it can help everybody, of all ages, um, you know, from babies, um, through to, you know, people who are in their later years and people who are pregnant. I mean it. It just literally covers absolutely everything.
Speaker 2:So, from the health aspects of it, you can, it's anything from physical to psychological. So anybody with acute or severe, you know conditions or ailments. So if you've got stress and anxiety, for example, or addictions, like with me, with smoking, or, um, physical, you know we literally it's a step-by-step guide that we we follow. So if you came to me then I would literally have a look. Uh, we have protocols for each of those conditions and I learn the techniques to be able to do um the protocols and then a person will come I'll do the protocol and when, when the treatment's over, that's it until the the next time and they can vary.
Speaker 2:You know the amounts of treatments that people need. Some only need a few and some need need more, so but it's done on a on a, you know, a one-to-one basis and it's whatever people are needing at that particular time and we just go with however people are feeling and we always check in and make sure that people are okay and, you know um make sure at the end of the treatments everybody's fine. So it's just it's. It's a wonderful thing to be able to share with people and to let people experience and actually relieve their symptoms of, because there's so many different types of ailments and conditions that are out there. So it's an amazing. Yeah, I feel very privileged to have come across this and also to be able to share that with others.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I think it's the overall thing.
Speaker 1:For me, it's just, it's amazing you sound so, so passionate about it. I'm curious. I've never experienced it, I've never been a recipient, so I'm curious. I've got a number of questions that I know my audience would love to hear your answers on. So the first question that comes to mind, because a lot of my background is in health, mental health, and that kind of aspect is a big pillar in the business. So in terms of health general, in terms of, if I talk about physical health and the physical body um, does pranic healing work on like the depth of cellular healing um or does it work on condition base? Or how does it work in terms of the health aspect of how it can help people?
Speaker 2:so it's condition based. So if somebody has got asthma, say, for example, I would look um, and, like I say, it's a cookbook approach. So I'd look for the protocol of asthma. I would do the, the protocol, step by step, and then, when the protocols finish, that's it. That's until the next one. So it's it's very much around condition base. So you would come to me, you'd get a diagnosis, the.
Speaker 2:The one thing and the important thing to say it's a complementary, it's a non-touch complementary therapy. So it's not instead of, it works very much with allopathic medicine. So it works hand in hand and it helps in those ways. So we would always ask somebody to go and get a diagnosis from a health professional, from the doctor, and then we will work on that basis, from a health professional, from the doctor, and then we will work on that basis. There are, if you know, people come to us and they have just general they want to feel good. There are, you know, we have protocols for that as well, just more general ones. But when people come to us it's generally with a condition and then we work through that condition with that person and then can you work with people who've got.
Speaker 1:You know what I like, I can imagine, and I know this has been my case personally well, I've got this, this and this. Can you work with multiple conditions, or do you just sort of just, oh yeah, work on one and then the next one, or do you work on them all together, or how does it work in that?
Speaker 2:place. Um, we can, depending on how many, to be honest, so we can work on. If somebody is feeling quite emotional, so if people are feeling quite stressed, but then they've got also got a physical um you know condition, then I can, absolutely I can do the two. If somebody's got five different physical conditions, then I would work one you know one, and then the other, and then the other. I wouldn't work on all of them all together. Um, but yeah, anything kind of emotional, you know, from the psychological side and then physical, absolutely I often do that together, hand in hand.
Speaker 1:They kind of go hand in hand, don't they, with so many things the emotional and the psych and the physical. So let's talk about the next area, in terms that you've mentioned as well, um, which I know a lot of people listening. Um, it's been a big area that I've that I've spoke about with various people, which is about the whole concept of money and finances and financial freedom and all of those kind of stuff. How would, uh, does chronic healing work with people who've got, you know, debt or worries or concerns about cash or any of that kind of pattern with money? Does it help in in that way as well? Because you did mention in terms of, um, finances or relationships? How does it work in that case?
Speaker 2:yes, it can. Um, there are courses that that people can go on. So we have the kirish act and it works very much around your finances and looking at um you being able using the energy system to um to be able to help you with your finances, and it's a it would be an injustice to do a quick snapshot of how that kind of works on here, because it's um, of course, over several days and it's understanding kind of the energy system and how that works and then how that can help you.
Speaker 2:But absolutely it's fascinating, you know, and this is why I love pranic healing so much when you understand the energy system, you understand that there's it's just it's there's so much there's so much to it and which includes your finances. And when you can understand how that works and how each interreact, you know how the energy centers within your bioplasmic field because now the scientists have caught up, you know, and now calling it the bioplasmic field and the energy centers to allow the prana to move freely in and out. When you understand how that works, then you can really use it to your advantage. But you would need to go on the courses to be able to understand more of that and I guess that's a similar way in terms of relationships.
Speaker 1:When people have got um, you know things more often I understand with relationships it's more about their own, the emotional side of how people are feeling in different dynamics in different relationships. So I assume chronic healing just helps people clear emotional baggage or emotional negativity or that kind of thing and then being able to get them more optimum and be able to choose relationships that are healthier yeah, to to some degree.
Speaker 2:That's absolutely um. There are different blockages and um it helps to harmonize it. But the one thing I think which is is truly helpful as well you come away with um with some really helpful tips to be able to help you, you know, not just while you're on the course. And the same with the finance, um, financial one. You come away with set things which continues with that work but also gives you some extra tools in the box so you can move forward quite quickly and smoothly on it. And yeah, I've done many of those myself and include, often include them in daily practice as well, because it's just really really helpful really good.
Speaker 1:So who? How start again? Who are the people that you really love to work with in terms of how you, you know, help people with this modality?
Speaker 2:absolutely everybody shall be honest, anybody who would like to experience pranic healing, um, and has wants to um work to improve, whether it's your health, whether it's you know, like you say, the relationships, the finances or spirituality I, I open the doors to absolutely everybody, anybody that would like to work with me, and it's at people of all ages.
Speaker 2:So I've worked on really young children, I've worked on people who are pregnant, I've worked on elderly people and I has got, has arrived at, you know, pranic healing from different ways and it's lovely to hear their journey as well and then to be able to to be the best version of them in whatever that looks like for them and sometimes it's health, sometimes, you know, like I say, with their or or their finances or kind of the spirituality side, and it's just lovely to be able to help everybody.
Speaker 2:Everybody who, uh, knocks on the door and would like to to work with me, I'm yeah, it's, it's a wonderful thing, and I find it also a real privilege to be part of people's journeys. I think that that's an important part as well for me. I got into this very much because I wanted to be the best version of myself and if I can help anybody just along their way to achieve whatever they want to, because it completely puts them in control of all of their lives. And if I can be part of that, then I think that that's a wonderful thing totally agree, totally agree.
Speaker 1:So how can people, how can people work with you? We will put all the details of how to get a hold of Nikki underneath the podcast episode so you can go and have a lot messenger and get in touch. But how, um, how would people work with you? What are the ways that they can work with you?
Speaker 2:Yeah, mostly I do remote, so I'll do through video call, through, you know, and so you can have a free 30-minute consultation, first of all because I want to make sure that it's right for them and it's right, um, you know, the treatments are right for for them as well as me and, uh, you know, as well as working with me. And then it's an hour-long treatment and there is payment for that, but you can get in touch with me to find out, but most of them are remotes. I can do in-person ones as well, but obviously, um, I can work across the whole of the world.
Speaker 2:You know, people have been on holiday in another country and they've said I'm feeling a bit, you know, can you help me? And it's like, yes, ok, or it's people around the corner, you know, so it's people. More locally, I'm based in Greater Manchester, cheshire East, that's. That's kind of the area that I cover, but I can do wherever if it's remotely so you're here to help everybody, whatever age and wherever they are in the world.
Speaker 1:That's like a big mission, isn't it? And there's no. You're welcoming anybody to have a conversation to see whether it's right for them.
Speaker 1:Absolutely 100% and your passion absolutely shines through you you really do adore, and I'd like the listeners to just tune into themselves for a moment to see, uh, whether you have your own version of this adoration for what it is that you're doing, because nikki exudes it. She really loves it. You can tell by how she is her energy and how she speaks about it and her love for it. And I just want you to listen as you're listening, see if you've got something in your life, whether it's a business, a modality, whether it's a person that you adore in some way, because it's a real great um feeling to have when you actually do hook on to something like this I've got it, nikki's got it. When you hook on something like this, I've got it, nikki's got it. When you hook onto something like this, it's like, oh, my goodness, this is what I'm here to do. It really feels like it fills you up from the inside out and it's like it's a non-negotiable. You're just going to be doing it.
Speaker 1:So I just want people to listen, as they've listened to you, and definitely tune in to whether they want to have a conversation with you, nikki, but also to tune in to themselves to see whether there's something in their life that they can actually exude this kind of adoration and love for. So thank you so much, nikki. I'm dead excited. This is your first episode. You've absolutely nailed it. The last question I want to ask, which I ask everybody that comes on becoming fearless, is about a book that you have read that has helped you in your life, um, either in terms of overcoming fear or in terms of helping you be, you know, the best version of yourself.
Speaker 2:My book is Women who Run With the Wolves by Dr Clarissa Pinkola-Stees, and the book is very much an inward reflection which kind of goes back to, you know, my own self-development and it's about women, but not just women, the feminine side as well, and she uses she's an amazing storyteller and uses a lot of mythical stories to be able to get her message across of looking inwardly and what that, the passion and the creativity and the relationships that you have and what that means and how others, um, how you can interpret that. And she does it from a very psychological point of view. So you have to think about it. You know her stories are very because they're mythical and she uses really descriptive words. It takes you inwardly, naturally, to really think about it and then she summarizes at the end of each story, because it's 14 short stories which are are all incredible and all have different messages.
Speaker 2:And, um, I'm not surprised it got so many high, high reviews because it's incredible. It's a really unique book that just addresses so many things as, as a person, that we often over, overlook at and it's only when we do deep inner reflection that those kind of things that come through and it's what we want out of life, you know, with relationships. So it is quite a deep book but really thought-provoking, and I can't recommend it highly enough.
Speaker 1:Is it one of those books where that you keep reading it, you reread it and get something different? Is it one of those types of books?
Speaker 2:Yes, absolutely, and it talks about different challenges that people may have or may face and how, how you can overcome those challenges, but in your own way. So, once again, she puts you in the driving seat of it, because you're with your own thoughts and it's it's the inward reflection of yourself and your own journey. So no, two ways are the same, which I think is wonderful, and through her storytelling she really brings that out. It's almost like she's talking to you as an individual, even though it's through a mythical story. It's just, yeah, it's wonderful.
Speaker 1:Very powerful author. I'll have to get that one because I haven't read that one but, it sounds super, super powerful.
Speaker 1:So thank you so so much, nicky. We could have talked for way way longer, um, but I will wrap it up. Thank you so so much. Like I say, if you want to get a hold of Nikki all of the details are under the podcast episode please do reach out and have a free conversation with her, and then you'll get an idea as to whether it's the right thing for you and if it is definitely, take the leap and jump in, because I know Nikki has some fabulous, fabulous results. So thank you so much, nikki. I've really been honoured to be, you know, the one that allowed you to be into the podcast world.
Speaker 2:Well, thank you so much as well, charlotte. I really enjoyed it and, yeah, you've made it really easy and made me feel very, very welcomed, and it's lovely to speak to you again. It really is, it's a true delight. So, thank you, thanks for your time.
