About Bjorn and Nordlight Healing
I Didn't Believe in Reiki. Then I Felt It.
I'm Bjorn. I grew up in Norway's Lofoten Islands, inside the Arctic Circle. Now I live in St Neots in Cambridgeshire, with my partner and our two rescue dogs, Alma and Misha.
For years, I was stuck in my own head, never quite feeling safe to be myself. Then I walked into my first Reiki course a sceptic. Thirty minutes in, I knew my life was about to change.
Today, I'm a Reiki and Seichem Master Teacher, tarot reader and meditation teacher. I work with people in the middle of something: a change they didn't plan, a decision they keep circling back to, or a life that looks fine from the outside but no longer feels like their own.
Everything I offer is something that got me out of my head and helped me feel safe in my own body again.
"From the very beginning, Bjorn was incredibly welcoming, understanding and present. He listened so well, and I immediately felt comfortable and at ease with him."

When Being Myself Didn't Feel Safe
Being bullied when I was younger shaped how I saw myself. I got used to questioning myself and trying to get everything right.
That followed me well into adulthood. If I skipped a gym session or didn't push myself hard enough, it felt like the end of the world. A small mistake at work meant I was a failure of a human being. I put so much energy into living up to what I thought everyone expected of me. I didn't know how to set a boundary, and I'm not sure I even knew what one was.
Then a COVID infection left me with severe post-viral fatigue: debilitating headaches, queasiness, and everyday things wiping me out completely. I went from never skipping a gym session to not being able to do one at all, because I didn't know if it was even safe to work out anymore.
Resting felt wrong. Pushing myself felt wrong. That's where I was when Reiki found me.
Finding Reiki by Accident
I'd already been studying tarot for a few months when my partner spotted a poster for a Reiki course on the high street and encouraged me to go. I went along a sceptic, expecting a few nice techniques at most.
Early on, my teacher placed a small orb of light in front of us and laid cloths over it, one by one, to show how life can dim our light. We're born as pure light, she explained, and our experiences add the layers.
She wasn't talking to me directly, but I felt seen, I think for the first time, as if I was meant to be in that room. By the end of the weekend, I was a different person.
Learning to Trust Myself
Reiki gave me back something I'd lost: peace, stillness and comfort in my own skin.
It also changed how I approached the fatigue. Reiki showed me how hard my nervous system had been working to keep me safe. So I slowly paced myself back into everyday life, telling myself it was safe and using energy healing to support me. Everyone's experience of fatigue is different, but for me, that made a real difference.
After my second Reiki course, I sensed there was more to explore, and that's how I found Seichem. Its elemental energies opened up my healing practice and connected me with something bigger than myself. My intuition grew stronger than it had ever been.
Two other practices shaped me along the way:
✦ Tarot helped me notice my own self-limiting patterns and what sat underneath them. It still surprises me how accurate it can be: I've pulled cards on a situation I was worried about, then watched it unfold just as they showed.
✦ Meditation gave me a way back to calm whenever my head took over. At its deepest, it has taken me so far away it felt like another world, even though I hadn't moved. I've come back with a deep sense of peace.
All three taught me to trust myself.
A Nordic Way of Seeing
To me, Northern Norway always had an otherworldly side, especially the Lofoten Islands. I think that's why I've never assumed that what we can see is all there is.
Even science tells us how little we perceive. Most of the universe is made of dark matter and dark energy, which no one has ever seen. Scientists only know they're there because of their effects. That's how I think about energy: you can't see it, but you can feel what it does.
In Sámi tradition, everything in the natural world has its own spirit: the mountains, the sea, the wind. I'm of Sámi descent on my mother's side, and that way of seeing runs through my work.
The name Nordlight comes from the northern lights: energy you can finally see, moving across the sky in colour. It's the closest thing I know to how energy feels to me.
What My Approach Means for You
Looking back, I spent years trying to get everything right for everyone else. It's why I care so much about creating a space where you don't need to get anything right, or find the perfect words. You'll be properly listened to, without judgement and without advice you didn't ask for.
I pay attention to what you tell me and to what your body is holding on to, because I believe unexpressed feelings often show up there. Every session starts with grounding, so you feel steady before we go deeper. I treat your body, your energy and what's happening in your life as connected, because in my experience they always are.
I see clients online and in my cosy home healing space in St Neots, Cambridgeshire. I regularly work with people who are neurodivergent or navigating something complex, and I shape every session around where you are on the day.
"I was talking about some heavy topics and I really felt I was being held and respected, but at the same time we were exploring together."

Beyond the Certificates
Before Nordlight Healing, I worked as a personal trainer, which gave me a solid understanding of anatomy and how the body works. It still shapes how I work with energy.
I practise what I offer: daily Reiki and Seichem self-healing, meditation, reflection and tarot. I keep learning through reading, courses, mentorship and Reiki shares, where practitioners give and receive healing together.
