I have worked with Bronwyn exclusively through her virtual offerings since 2017. I have enjoyed and found immense value in all of her seasonal offerings, which I have found to be powerful and inspiring. I have been more and more delighted to have found Bronwyn and her work over the years, especially in the last two years as I've re-defined my life and deeply re-connected with nature and living in alignment with the seasons. I am grateful to have a powerful teacher and guide.

Bronwyn has created and maintained a potent container for healing in her community. She does a great job of making you feel grounded and safe while she offers her services. I have received her acupuncture and I couldn't recommend it more. I know she offers many other services and based off my experience of her I would recommend checking out her website to see if any of it calls to you. Also - sign up for her email list - she offers seasonal wisdom that is always a delight to read : thank you Bronwyn for inspiring change and healing in this world.

Bronwyn is an experienced Reiki Master. She is not only well versed in Reiki but she has a range of expertise like herbalism and acupunture. I found her Reiki Course in early 2020 before the pandemic closed down travel and mass gatherings. Bronwyn was so committed to the practice that she made a way out of no way. We attuned to the Reiki remotely and in a way that helped me connect with the Reiki energy profoundly.
Over six months Bronwyn held space as I transformed into a Reiki master myself. I love that she found a way to continue by Reiki attunements remotely and effectively. I recommend her Reiki course to anyone in the world. It is a beautiful experience and I am sure much better in-person.

I can't say enough about how incredible my journey with Bronwyn Ayla has been. I started by going to see her for Reiki and acupuncture over a year ago and was so impressed with her and the results that I also signed up for her Wu Wei School of Reiki. The Wu Wei School of Reiki has been life changing! It has helped me to dive deeper into a sacred place of incredible transformation and I would highly recommend it to anyone. Bronwyn is a true, authentic healer who has created a safe, loving and peaceful environment where incredible shifts and healing take place.

Bronwyn is an exceptional teacher! If you're seeking a Reiki teacher who is both organized and deeply in touch with Spirit, Bronwyn is the perfect match. Her class content is well sequenced, clear, and detailed. Even during the pandemic I feel I've received the best Reiki training around. Bronwyn is truly present for her students, and she cares deeply about empowering her students with knowledge and connection to building a relationship with Reiki.
I feel fortunate to have met and trained with Bronwyn and the cohort of students in the training. These are connections that will last a lifetime. My deep gratitude to Bronwyn for leading us through this experience and training with such a full heart, command of information, and a clear path through the Reiki training. Sign up for her trainings! You won't regret it!

When I first met Bronwyn for Reiki, I didn't know what to expect, I didn't want to go on therapy and was looking for alternative healing. Right away, I knew I came to see the right person to help me. Bronwyn was listening, respectful, kind to me. I could feel her energy on my body while receiving Reiki, really pure, sincere with no judgement. She was attuning to my physical and emotional pain to be able to heal me.
And she did. After my second appointment, I was feeling so much better, that I decided to sign up for Reiki master training with Bronwyn. This training changed my life, Bronwyn is an amazing coach and human being, here to help you on your path, humble and caring. Being attuned Reiki master with Bronwyn, I am proud to still refer to her when I need it.

I have recently started the Mastery Course online. I am reviewing each section 3 or 4 times. Gaing something new each time. I realized that this course is like a beloved book and I dont want it to end. Bronwyn expertly and beautifully connect each lesson into a deep and soulful experience. I would highly recommend signing up for all courses.as I will. This is just so so good. Respectfully Sue Sharp, Diftless Life Coaching and Reiki Healing.
