”Chaotic magic” might be the perfect way to describe how two neurodivergent Reiki Masters approach their energy practice and teaching. In this candid conversation, we pull back the curtain on our personal journeys with ADHD and how it fundamentally shapes our relationship with Reiki.

For decades, we operated without understanding why our brains seemed to work differently. The revelation of our neurodivergence came later in life, bringing clarity to lifelong patterns. As one of us puts it, ”I'm a computer with 150 tabs open on a given day” – a reality that many with ADHD will recognize immediately. While this constant mental activity can be challenging, we've discovered it brings extraordinary gifts to our Reiki practice.

The neurodivergent mind notices everything – the shifted picture frame that's been moved after three years, the subtle energy shifts in a room, the connections between seemingly unrelated concepts. This heightened awareness creates a natural affinity for energy work. We can hyper-focus when needed, accomplishing more in short bursts than seems humanly possible, while also bringing a creativity and intuition that enhances our healing approach.

We've transformed our teaching method to honor how neurodivergent minds actually work – breaking content into digestible pieces, shortening meditation times, and creating an environment where students don't need to process information in a neurotypical way. The result? A more accessible approach to Reiki that welcomes everyone, especially those who've been told they ”can't sit still long enough” for spiritual practices.

Reiki itself becomes a powerful tool for managing ADHD symptoms – bringing scattered attention back to center, creating a sense that time expands when needed, and reducing the anxiety that often accompanies neurodivergence. If you've ever felt your brain works differently and wondered if energy practices could be for you, this conversation offers both validation and practical insights for turning your ”neurospicy” nature into your greatest spiritual asset.
