Marla Mervis- Healing at the Speed of Love

My son is Spiderman. Who are YOU?

mmreiki6@yahoo.com (Marla Mervis) — Thu, 15 Dec 2016 10:38:00 -0800

My son is Spiderman who are YOU?

Dear Reiki Friends,

At our house, the days are full of super hero action. At any given moment we will be hanging out with Spider-man, Superman, Iron Man or Captain America. Every once in a while, Peter Parker hangs out with us, too. There are days that we don't see our dear son Aspen - only Spider-man.

Recently, I told my son as we were getting ready for preschool, that he wasn't able to wear his Spider-man costume to school. He immediately burst into tears saying, "How can I help people? If I don't wear my Spider-man costume I can't help people." Earlier that week, his preschool teacher said that he was so helpful in class. When something needed to be done, he was there in a flash. Someone had an owie, he was there making them feel better. He equated helping people to being a super hero. And when I was having a sad moment, Spider-Man said, "Don't worry; I'll get Iron Man (aka my husband). He will make it all better."

All this super hero action got me thinking about the holidays and how we often "try" to do everything and be Super Man/Wonder Woman. What if we changed our mindset about being a super hero? What if a super hero didn't mean doing everything perfectly, but being present, helping others and taking care of OURSELVES. What if during this holiday season we became Super-Take-Care-Of-Myself-Girl or Batman Big Breath?

Take a moment and think about what is truly needed to show up in Superbness! Super Man isn't exhausted! He is Go-To-Bed-Early-So-I-Can-Rock-the-World-Man.

What super hero do you need to become to be present and in your loving? Hit reply, and tell me!

Much love,

Marla

Testimonials

There are many Reiki Teachers. Read some of these testimonials about my Reiki 1 Class to see if it is for YOU!

I decided to take a Reiki course, to begin exploring a journey into healing

work. I was prepared for it to be a long experience before I was able to be of service to people. But after our time together and being attuned, I was instantly able to tap into the unconditional love source and become a vessel for people to give healing to themselves. I'm so happy to be able to give people the opportunity to receive this light. What I didn't expect from this course was also the tools to help manifest the greatest desires in my life. With this new understanding, I'm able to be in control of living life at my happiest, and to instantly benefit from it!

I would absolutely recommend Marla because she is such a pure person with the beautiful intention to empower everyone to live the life they want. She takes such care to walk in the light throughout her daily life, and is an inspiration to anyone who spends even a moment with her.

~Ada Loridans

I would absolutely recommend Marla because she truly lives the noble life of Reiki. ~Mariana Lopez

There were many, many things that I loved about this class. To name a few, YOU the teacher, the size of the class, the atmosphere that was created, the group participation, our practice that we did at lunch w/ the angel cards. I loved that there were students in the Reiki Master class in attendance who were able to assist and hold space and to talk about their experiences. I loved your teaching style. It was kind, patience and open. Yet you were able to wrangle a lot of personalities and mesh them all together. I felt that you were very attentive to each student and answered questions. I loved hearing your story! Your experience and knowledge is incredible. Space has definitely opened up inside me to relax and breathe.

~Sascha Cobble

Marla, you are a talented and potent teacher! And the joy of sharing such sweet, vulnerable and powerful Truth, together -Wow.

I absolutely feel the class gave me the essential tools to give myself and others Reiki! It was very thorough and presented in a loving, informed and easy, inspired manner. I feel very complete in learning the purpose, history, philosophy, discipline and spiritual principles of Reiki. I loved the creation of shared sacred space between all of us... I must express how much I enjoyed our phenomenal, magical meditations each day... that energy- and those inner journeys and revealed gifts, presented by our guides, burns bright forever now in my Heart and Soul.

The main result has been my experience of more fully and unconditionally learning and practicing loving and forgiving myself.

How Negative Body Image can be an Excuse for Deeper Intimacy-Video

mmreiki6@yahoo.com (Marla Mervis) — Tue, 20 Sep 2016 09:54:00 -0700

"I HATE my Thighs!" I don't like my Butt." "I wish I was 10 pounds thinner."

These are the excuses that many women make about not being in a relationship or having sex. "I'm disgusting."

"No one is gonna love me anyways in this body."

These are some of the hidden beliefs that many women hold.

After years of blaming my life on my body, I can honestly say, "I DON'T BUY IT!!!!!"

It is not your body that you are afraid of sharing with another, it is something way deeper than that. It isn't your body that is keeping you from accepting yourself.

It is something deeper.

Our bodies house HUGE capacity for love and connection. As we shed our fear of intimacy with others and ourselves we open up.

Watch this video as I talk about "How Negative Body Image can be an EXCUSE for a lack of Deeper Intimacy."

Love,
Marla

Embody the Awakening~ INTRODUCING A LOVE YOUR BODY SEXUALITY EVENT

mmreiki6@yahoo.com (Marla Mervis) — Tue, 20 Sep 2016 09:54:00 -0700

You're invited to the

Embody the Awakening

Body Image Sexuality Workshop

In my experience, there is no way to separate our sexuality from our willingness to accept our bodies and love ourselves. Our sexuality is a beautiful aspect of how we experience life. Without our willingess to feel pleasure and intimacy, we block the most powerful connection to ourselves.

Sexuality isn't always about THE OTHER. It is about how we feel ourselves. It is about how comfortable we are with feeling juicy, full and alive. To some, this may feel super scary. I totally get it. To feel pleasure and allow for sensuality in our bodies can feel unsafe. We can feel violated or scared. I've been there. I remember walking down the streets of NYC so uncomfortable with the catcalls and looks. I would duck, hide, put my head down. I remember getting so upset I screamed at a man at the top of my lungs, " GET THE F&*K out of my face!!!" Ummmm..... not the best response, but at that moment I was doing the best that I could.

Being comfortable in my body as a sensual, sexual woman has been and continues to be a journey. (BTW when I say sexual, I am not talking about playing SEXY and pretending. I'm talking about the authentic expression of an empowered woman.) Through my continual study of tantra with the great Dawn Cartwright and my recent completion of The Artemis School, for Women's Sexual Wellness, I have learned more about my body and how POWERFUL we are as women.

This is why I have created Embody the Awakening - a Love Your Body Sexuality Workshop. If you are ready to take a step into accepting your femininity and sexuality, I would love to have you join my Love Your Body Sexuality Workshop.

Are you curious? Want more information? Then let's chat.

I want to know about YOU, your story and how I can support you into creating the kind of relationship with your body that makes your life thrive. EMAIL ME

Bringing Reiki into Parenting

mmreiki6@yahoo.com (Marla Mervis) — Tue, 20 Sep 2016 09:53:00 -0700

HI Loves,

This video is a little inspiration on how to bring Reiki into your parenting.
Sharing Reiki with my little guy is so much fun, because children
have the natural ability to tap right into the LOVE! They don't hold back with anything and LOVE is their language.

Learning Reiki as a parent is a great way to bring in more peace and patience into your relationship with your children. WOW!! Children are great AND they can push our buttons too. Reiki helps me to be present and sllooooooowwwww down.

Hope you enjoy!

Sing along if you want!

How Good Can you Stand it?

mmreiki6@yahoo.com (Marla Mervis) — Sun, 13 Mar 2016 15:02:00 -0700

How Good Can You Stand it?

I was recently sharing with my mentor about successes that I had with my business. In the span of two weeks, I started working at a Malibu Rehab Center doing Reiki/Massage and I signed three new Coaching Clients. WOOHOO!! I was super excited to have this burst of prosperity show up!

And then....... I began to notice fear creeping in.

Here's a glimpse of my fear mind in action:

"It's great that you feel good now, but you wont be able to sustain it. And you're probably gonna be exhausted from all the work. And not have any energy to be with your family. BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH"

You get the picture, right?

I noticed I was keeping myself from stepping into a new threshold. And although I was excited, I was comfortable where I was living. I was afraid of what more goodness in my life would look like.

I decided I needed to stretch myself. I began to notice my discomfort and began to relish it.

Being uncomfortable meant I was being stretched which meant I was reaching for new possibilities. I was onto something.

Through the prompting of my coach, I began asking myself every day,

"How good can I stand it?" This simple question began to change all my thoughts. It began to open me up to all the ways that I block beauty in my life.

How good can I stand it? This profound question made me confront my fears. It helped me look for the goodness even when I was having a challenging day. This question began to get me out of my box into a yummier space of living.

Would you like to join me on March 14th for a 21-day challenge?

The How Good Can I Stand it~21 day Challenge.

All you do is ask yourself on a daily basis for 21 days, "How good can I stand it?" and see what comes up. See if this question challenges your thoughts around prosperity. How good can I stand it in relationship to my loved ones? How good can I stand it with my flow of income? How good can I stand it with what I look like?

Are you in? If so, simply email me at mmreiki7@yahoo.com and say " I am in."

I'll add you to a PRIVATE Facebook page where on March 14th we can start to share our insights, inspirations, reach out for support and create a new movement for GREATNESS.

Love,

Marla

Before attending the Living Light Reiki 1 Class, I was experiencing the loss of faith in my life that I would ever be practicing the healing arts again, but after our time together, I was instantly able to experience loving and appreciating myself and helping my loved ones feel deeper into themselves, and as a result, here is what has changed in my life. I've allowed myself to open up to wisdom. I feel a deepening sense of inner peace and more open to listening to my heart.

Why Reiki and Weight Balance?

Reiki reduces stress and encourages calmness and peace,

so you are less likely to overeat and spike your cortisol levels.

Reiki will stabilize your appetite and remove unhealthy cravings.

Reiki improves overall digestive functions and gradual detox.

Reiki can make you more intuitive so it helps you become in tune with your body's cues for nourishment and the willingness to listen.

The better we feel about ourselves the more likely we are to make the

best choices for our overall well being.

Reiki provides tools that allow you to slow down and find

balanced energy levels while still living a full and radiant life.

What will you learn?

What and how to eat.

Create a healthy relationship with food.
Listen to your body's cues for nourishment.
Mind traps that are keeping you from your body's optimal weight.
Lower stress levels and balance the body's natural rhythm.
Learn to appreciate your body right now.

How sensuality and pleasure are keys to Body Acceptance.
Application of Reiki principles to weight balance.

Free Tenderness Guided Meditation~September Reiki Events

mmreiki6@yahoo.com (Marla Mervis) — Fri, 25 Sep 2015 13:54:00 -0700

Month/Year

Dear Reiki Friends,

Remember the song "Tenderness" from the 80's? It played on the movies Weird Science and Clueless?? Here are some lyrics to remind you:

I don't know when to start or when to stop

My luck's like a button, I can't stop pushing it

My head feels light but I'm still in the dark

Seems like without tenderness there's something missing

Tenderness

Where is the

Tenderness
Where is it?

Where is tenderness showing up in your life? What would happen if you brought more tenderness into your life?

Being tender means being soft, gentle and treating yourself with care.

I have been playing with bringing tenderness into my interactions with others and myself. And I noticed that it is slowing me down, making me more present, and bringing in softness. Tenderness has allowed me to be kinder to myself, take actions that are more loving AND to step into my heart even when I need to assert some clear boundaries.

I have prepared a Guided Meditation to get you into the Tenderness mood.

Please check it out and let me know how tenderness is affecting your life.

Tenderly,
Marla

What the 'BLEEP' is Reiki?

My Love Affair! (upcoming events)

mmreiki6@yahoo.com (Marla Mervis) — Tue, 30 Jun 2015 17:44:00 -0700

Dear marla,
I bumped into an old 'friend' the other day. I told her that about my upcoming Reiki 1 class. Her response was, "REALLY? You are still teaching Reiki??!!! I thought you would have moved on."
This comment got me thinking about my love affair with Reiki. After 15 years of exploring Reiki, the relationship keeps deepening. And just like any great relationship, Reiki has touched my heart, shown me my uncomfortable edges, expanded my capacity to love and taught me to see the positive. Here's a 'small' list of what Reiki has awakened in me:

Reiki transforms me from Victim to Spiritual Warrior
Reiki helps me to feel close to God
Reiki expands my ability to feel pleasure
Reiki allows me to see life through a positive and loving filter.
Reiki grants me the power to give a healing touch to my son when he hurts himself. ( cancel cancel)
Reiki helps me feel deep into my heart when connecting to my husband and other loved ones.
Reiki assists me in healing deep inner wounds.
Reiki places my students & clients into deep meditative states of peace.
Reiki activates my intuition.
Reiki protects by creating shields of love.

REIKI is LOVE!

What others are saying about Marla's Reiki Classes:

"Consider yourself in the flow of the positive energy of the universe if you have been drawn to Marla Mervis. I am so fortunate one to have received Reiki sessions and have been taught Reiki by Marla. She is my Reiki master, a mentor and ultimately, (and I dont use this word lightly) a healer. I truly believe when you are ready to change your life, Marla will enter. Her connection to the infinite wealth of health and healing is palpable. She is an extremely open person and has an unbelievable way of using that for love, for good and for the benefit of others. I have had many Reiki sessions and have never had a session that was in the realm of Marla's. You can relax and have faith in the fact that you are in very special hands when you have a session with Marla. I am truly in gratitude every day to have her as my Reiki master and to have received powerful Reiki from her. She is the real deal!!!! THANK YOU MARLA! Thank you for changing my life and showing me the miracle of the "healing" touch"." Erika

Marla is an extremely gifted healer. A few years ago, I decided to become a certified Reiki practitioner as well. I took Marla's weekend course and it was a life-changer! In my opinion, there is no better person than Marla to guide you through that transition. Thank you Marla! The world is a better place for having you in it!"Cara

You Eat Like a Truck Driver

mmreiki6@yahoo.com (Marla Mervis) — Sun, 10 May 2015 08:59:00 -0700

"You are not Fat, Just Solid."

"Hold your belly in."

" Enjoy that chocolate now while you can, it's gonna catch up to you."

" Are you SURE you want another helping?"

What was said to you as a child? Many of us were given messages that our bodies were wrong and our weight needed to be controlled. We were taught early on that food was an enemy. Food would inevitably make you fat. And fat was bad ...really really bad! Fat essentially meant you wouldn't be loved.

"You eat like a truck driver."

"Stay thin or your husband will leave you for a thinner younger woman."

"Keep eating that way and you'll end up fat like your mom."

We often have beliefs and thoughts soaring through our heads that aren't even ours. What if you could take these beliefs and send them back to their rightful owner? Mother. Sister. Dad. Aunt.

Sometimes we live our whole life without asking- "Is that belief true?" Is it? Is it true that you aren't loved if you weigh 10 pounds more? Is it true your life will suck because you eat 'too much' ice cream? Our beliefs create our reality. Believe it and it becomes true. Create a story and stick to it and then create behaviors and a life that affirms that belief.

As women, we are perpetuating our own fears by teaching our daughters and younger girls to be discontent with their bodies. The cycle goes on and on and on. Did you know that 80% of 10-year-old girls have been on a diet? Most young girls have a similar belief about their bodies as their mothers.

This is a post from the Body Image Project Blog. It has endless posts from anonymous young girls pouring their hearts out about their bodies. Check out this post: "At the age of sixteen, you would think that the only thing a girl would have to worry about is school or getting her drivers license. But no, not me. I have to look in the mirror everyday and see an ugly and fat girl staring back. I cry all the time about it. I hate myself. I want to be skinny. Actually, I feel like I have to be skinny. This world we live in isn't fair. It's just so hard trying to workout and diet everyday and then see no results. I'm trapped...I want to get out of this. "

We need to WAKE UP and acknowledge that our own beliefs about our bodies affect those around us! Do you want your daughter or niece to dislike their body? Then stop putting yourself down! Cultivate a love for yourself. The best way to teach acceptance and love is to model it. We know this and yet somehow we forget it when it comes to our bodies. Young children are being physically and psychologically harmed and our own beliefs will make an impact.

I feel it is my responsibility to LOVE MY BODY, so I can teach young girls around me that they too can love their bodies.

If you struggle with loving your body and want to make a drastic change in your own life and the women you love, join my upcoming workshop LOVE YOUR BODY LOVE YOURSELF WORKSHOP.

Love,

Marla

Why telling someone to "Love Your Body" is triggering.

Do you Love Your Body?

Most women get triggered by this question. They feel they can only love their bodies once their weight is perfect, food is under control and they have the partner of their dreams.

I get it! It didn't matter how many compliments I was given. I couldn't authentically love my body. I was so afraid of being fat that I constantly controlled my food & exercised like crazy.

I'm not saying that it is easy to love yourself.

However, what is the alternative?
Is hating your body and dieting working for you? Has it gotten you any long-term weight loss? Have you controlled yourself to a stable weight, but you still feel like CRAP? Or are you awaiting the day where you've got it all under control and then you'll love yourself?
None of this worked for me either. It kept me binge, restrictive and emotionally eating.

Why does it matter if I love or hate my body?

Maybe you don't realize the depth of how disliking your body impacts your life. The truth is it affects everything! Your relationships, your work, your health! EVERYTHING! How? When you are only thinking about food and your body, you miss out on so much LIFE!!! If you are constantly fighting your body, your life will never feel Joyful and Fun.

Are you

thinking about dinner while you are eating lunch?
in fear that 'the guy' won't like you because the size of your thighs?
feeling your life is getting smaller and smaller because of your obsession with your body and food?
isolating? Hiding from parties and gatherings because you are afraid of the food. Or you made it to the party, however the food is talking louder than the person you are in conversation with?
not feeling confident at work?
eating cold pizza quickly hoping no one will notice?

When you find peace with your body and your food, life changes on ALL levels. Your relationship to your body affects every experience in your life!

How would it feel to love and care for yourself no matter what you ate or how you looked?

What would it be like to be kinder, more compassionate to yourself ?

Would you have more time, love, creativity, freedom?

When I finally loved my body, my weight balanced & food choices were easier. I began to enjoy exercise in a whole new way. Through my own struggles with body dissatisfaction, I have created a method that

will allow you to jump over years of obsessing about your body and straight to LOVE. I can help you break the cycle of self hatred.

I want to teach YOU how!

Are you ready to change your life?

Join my Upcoming LOVE YOUR BODY LOVE YOURSELF WORKSHOP on May 9 ^th in LA to learn how to Love your Body and Love your Life!

This one day women's workshop will reboot your relationship with your body. I will lead your through a journey of self discovery and reprogramming. It is a day full of movement, art therapy, breath-work, sharing, and much much more.
