Traci Houchins also taught Sophia Meta Reiki that same year.
After 20 years as a Master Teacher of Reiki, in February 2020 Sophia was spiritually guided to travel to Maui to work with the Holy Fire III. While on a solo vision quest, during a sunset ceremony at 10,023 feet atop Haleakala volcano, Sophia gained the respect needed and received the final key to a gateway of Divine energy called Quantum Key Reiki and the Quantum Rei-Key techniques. She was told it is the highest refined frequency of life force energy gifted to the human race at this time. Under spiritual guidance she has developed the curriculum and now teaches Quantum Rei-Key to select Reiki Masters who have attained the level of Karuna Holy Fire Master.
