## Resource

If you've ever been curious about Reiki but your inner skeptic won't let you fully lean in, this podcast is for you. I'm Molly Donlan, Reiki Master Teacher, bestselling author of Mundane Magic, and a former skeptic who spent nine years working with survivors of sexual violence before chronic pain, anxiety, and burnout sent me searching for answers my doctors couldn't give me. Reiki was the only thing that worked. So I spent a decade digging into the science of why. The Science of Reiki is where I translate that research into plain English. No spiritual bypassing, no pressure to believe, just honest, science-backed conversations about how this practice actually works in your mind, your body, and your everyday life. Subscribe and let's geek out together. 🔮 Listen to the full podcast: https://mollydonlan.com/sor 🔮 Download the free companion workbook: https://mollydonlan.com/sor-workbook 🔮 Want to learn Reiki in a way that actually makes sense?
