Patrick Zeigler

American originator of Seichim (Sekhem/SKHM), an energy-healing system born of a 1980 vision in the Great Pyramid and later woven together with Reiki.

Patrick Zeigler (Patrick Scott Zeigler) is an American teacher and the originator of Seichim (also spelled Sekhem, Seichem, or SKHM), an energy-healing path he introduced in the early 1980s. Drawn to Egypt, he spent a night in the King's Chamber of the Great Pyramid of Giza in 1980, where a meditative awakening connected him with an energy he named Seichim.

Lineage. After returning to the United States he pursued Reiki mastership with Barbara Weber Ray, then began teaching Seichim alongside Reiki. Through later teachers such as Kathleen Milner and Diane Ruth Shewmaker the two streams merged into the Sekhem-Seichim-Reiki family. Zeigler now teaches an evolved form he calls All Love.

Known for. As the source of the Seichim current, Zeigler is connected to the extended Seichim symbol set — including the symbol that aligns the higher, lower, and God aspects of self — though most of those symbols were developed by later students rather than by Zeigler himself.
