Sourcing MariEL

MariEL was founded by Ethel Lombadi, who was one of the original 22 people made Usui Reiki masters by Ms. Hawayo Takata. Ms. Takata brought the lineage of Usui Reiki from Japan to the west, and thanks to her it has become worldwide. Ethel was working with Usui Reiki until she was visited by three beings dressed in cloaks in the early 1980’s. She called them “the Monks” and they brought her this healing modality that channeled the combined energy of the Divine Feminine and the Elohim. The energy of Mary was strong as a Divine presence, and the Elohim that she described were “Angels of Divine Presence” that can be imagined as the Divine Source’s builders of form who’s loving light supports everything in the multiverses.

My teacher, Cheri Melton, received attunements and notes with the symbols under the names of MariEL Healing and MariEL Reiki, from two former students of Ethel’s after Ethel’s death, but there was little teaching. Cheri’s contribution has been the re-dreaming of MariEL. She channeled additional information that blossoms MariEL into a modern modality that benefits the time and space the New Earth is birthing herself into, and that humankind is becoming. She brought in energy medicine techniques from her shamanic training and through channeling was shown additional ways to use the symbols and new variations of them. She created a guidebook which I have been using and teaching from the past ten years with her blessing. The guidebook’s purpose is to offer us access to our personal source of self-healing, nourishment and sacred power. Take what works for you and leave the rest.

Why is the manual open to all and free? The MariEL’s want it to be. They know how much healing is needed now for humanity and Gaia. As you tend to yourself and raise your consciousness - you bring others with you just by proximity. As within - so without. The energy of MariEL has a wisdom of its own and comes to those who are open.

Receiving MariEL

Because the manual is free, you can download it and start working with the symbols and methods right away. However Cheri found that the crown symbol is not fully activated until one has an attunement. And attunements from others who have had attunements amplifies the connection and energy so much! So I do offer a workshop in MariEL, where we go over the parts of the manual, but I also share additional information and an additional symbol. It is also an opportunity to become part of a community of practice and to connect with others who live from their MariEL hearts.

I usually offer this near the Solstices and Equinoxes, but I will also teach this by request either one-on-one or to a small group, and this is easily done remotely via Zoom. The workshop includes lecture and hands-on practice, attunement and additional notes from Ethel. And I offer this on a donation basis. If you are interested or have questions, please send me an email.
