Candle Meditation

2020-07-08T03:23:00.002-07:00

This meditation works on the higher chakras. Prepare for the meditation by sitting in a comfortable position at a place where you will not be disturbed for 30 minutes. Breathe in to a count of four, hold your breath for four seconds and slowly exhale for four seconds. Repeat this step three times and feel your body and mind relax as your thoughts start to clear out. If more thoughts intrude, calmly release them and tell your mind that you will deal with them later.

Light the candle and dedicate it to your Higher Self or preferred spiritual guide. Say your protection prayers or daily dedication prayers. Return your attention to your breathing.

Look at the flame of the candle and notice the aura of light around the flame. Notice its aura colours.
Close your eyes and see the entire flame and its light within your third eye chakra as it illuminates this energy centre and gently opens it.

Allow the flame to move down into the heart chakra, see it bathing this energy centre with its light and gently opening it. this light removes all the darkness from the heart chakra. Then the light expands until it fills the entire chest, spreading to the shoulders and down your arms. It then spreads further to fill the abdomen, pelvis and your legs.

Now, the flame slowly rises up into the throat chakra where it lights up this centre and gently opens it. It moves to the mouth as the light of truth and trust. Slowly, it rises further up into the head and fills it with light. The light expand and shines through the eyes and ears. All darkness dissipates from the mind. The light in the heart centre glows stronger and shines out of the body and around it.

Let the light fill the room in which you have been meditating.Let it spread further to surround your family, friends, colleagues, enemies and rivals, strangers and all beings on the planet, not forgetting to include the planet. Allow the light to fill and illuminate everything and everyone.

Take your time to absorb this light and be in this light. This is your soul's light, the light of Source. Thank your Spiritual Guide for the Light.

Slowly return to consciousness, feel your feet, legs and whole body. Stand up and stamp your feet to ground your energy.

Meditation for Mother Earth

2020-05-24T12:23:00.000-07:00

Our planet needs us now, more than ever before.
She houses us lovingly and despite that, we have been thankless and selfishly exploited her.
Earth is ready for a higher vibration and has moved on and so many of us have lagged behind and not kept up with her.If you are also a Reiki practitioner, you will no doubt resonate with this meditation and I hope you will join me in sending healing to Earth regularly. It is the least we can do especially at this time on our evolutionary path.
As I started sending healing today, the initial connection moved to a guided-meditation from my healing guides, which I will share here today.
Take three long breaths, breathe in through your nose, to the count of four, hold your breath to the count of four, then slowly exhale through your mouth, to the count of four. Do this exercise three times, then continue to breathe normally.

Visualize your self in space, with planet Earth in front of you. Connect with the distance symbol if you are a Reiki practitioner or just in thought if you're not.
If you work with Angels or Spiritual Guides, invite them to work alongside you as they are always willing to assist and are very busy with Planet healing too. Visualize the healing light entering the Planet at the north Pole, slowly spreading from the Earth's inner core outwards to all the countries, the oceans, rivers, all the bodies of water carrying the healing light to every country, every town, village and rural areas. the healing light covers everything and everyone on the planet. Then ask Master Saint Germaine to pour Violet Flame into the Earth and transmute any negativity, lower vibrational feelings like fear and anxiety into positive, uplifting emotions.
Use your Reiki symbols if you have them, to intensify the healing. When doing this, as you visualize the symbol over the planet, breathe in and visualize the symbol as a lit up symbol, then as you breathe out, visualize the symbol expanding, each time making it brighter with light and larger and larger, until the symbol is larger than the planet. As I am living in South Africa, I then visualized the energy as it was spreading through our country, encircling the health workers and energizing them with healing, cleansing light, purifying and protecting them so that they could do their amazing work without fear and guided by unconditional love. From them, the energy moved to everyone else in the country healing and protecting them, and giving them the wisdom to protect themselves by following the guidelines to save them from infection.
After this, visualize the planet absorbing the energy and everyone on the planet feeling well, happy and returning to a normal life, with a new zest for living and willing to embrace a new life with a less dense vibration, being more caring towards each other, their priorities changed from an ego-ruled existence, to a more sensitized reality with a focus on family values, a balanced lifestyle, thus inviting abundance to their lives on every level.
Send healing light to the outer layers of the planet healing sealing its aura with protective, healing Light.
Thank the Spiritual Guides, Angels, and above all, God, who is with us every step of the way helping us and urging us to heal ourselves and our planet in turn. It has to begin with us, each and everyone of us, for we are all one and irrevocably inter-connected.
Blessings in the Light.
Namaste!

Charging Water with Reiki

2018-07-04T22:18:00.000-07:00

An energy healer's hands can change the water's properties to turn spring water to a healing tonic, so remember this when you are having a challenging day that leaves you drained of your life force .

The process is easy to follow:
- Fill a glass with spring water.
- Hold your palms over the rim of the glass or around it.
- Ask for healing energy to be directed to the water. Use the CKR symbol over the rim of the glass and visualize it entering the water and energizing it. If your palms tingle, do not remove them until the tingling stops.
- Once the water has been charged, thank the Reiki energy for its blessing and drink the water slowly, visualizing that you are sipping healing light and that it cleanses and empowers your body internally, with the ability to heal any imbalances that may be present.

Personal Bubble of Protection

2018-06-20T22:20:00.001-07:00

A bubble of protection is essential for energy workers. It eases the sense of vulnerability when we face dense forms of energy in our day to day lives.

One way to do this is by standing with your feet slightly apart, while breathing deeply to clear your mind and raise your vibration.

Draw the CKR symbol in front of you and repeat its mantra three times.
Feel the energy flow and visualize a golden bubble enveloping you and sealing below your feet, while connecting you to mother Earth.

Join your hands in a way that the palms of your hands are turned towards you, then move your hands from head to toes and surround the whole body sealing the bubble with this energy from the inside of the bubble.

Express gratitude to the energy of Reiki for protecting you and keeping you safe and nurtured.
this technique strengthens your aura and protects you on all levels, keeping you grounded.

House cleansing and energizing with Reiki

2018-06-19T22:09:00.000-07:00

Our homes may absorb and hold negative energies from people and situations in the house. A regular clearing of this negative debris will maintain the positive vibration in the home and make it the safe haven you crave when you return home from work.

Once a week smudge the entire dwelling starting at the door, stating your intent to release all negative energies into the light, while lighting it with a match. extinguish the flame and allow the smoke to flow, moving in a clockwise direction from the entrance door, pointing the smoke three times into every corner of every room in turn. Use SHK symbol in every corner and CKR at the centre of each room. When you arrive back at the entrance, allow the stick to burn completely, just outside the door.

Go back inside and sit comfortably. Breathe in deeply and relax your muscles. Affirm the following: I am bringing tranquillity and the joy and love that this space needs, for the highest good of everyone concerned." Allow the Reiki energy to flow and see it covering the floor, walls, ceiling, eliminating any residual of negativity, and covering the whole house with white Light. Stay with this visualization until it feels right to end it.

Draw the CKR symbol on every window and door, for protection.

Now affirm "This house is now filled with Love and Light, and the Spirit of Peace now resides here. Express your gratitude to the Universal Life Force and your Spirit Guides and Angels (if you have requested their assistance).

Losing Weight with Reiki

2018-06-18T22:27:00.000-07:00

Losing weight effectively is a process best approached as a change in your way of life, rather than a crash diet which is detrimental to your health and well-being.

Choosing healthy, wholesome foods appropriate to your immune system, is always a good choice, on your road to a healthy lifestyle.

Reiki can assist you enormously in this task.
The following suggestions may be used as guidelines:
- Use the Reiki Power symbol, CKR over your food, to bless it and energize the nutrients in it, and aid digestion;
- Learn to really love your body. Regularly affirm "I love my body". If it doesn't feel right, take a deep breath relax and repeat until it feels right within you;
- Drink water that has been energized with Reiki, often. When energizing the water, affirm "This water removes all toxins from my body";
- Write an affirmation on paper with a positive message such as "I am a self-confident person, positive and joyful" always in the present tense and Reiki your affirmation daily with HSZSN symbol.
- Use a yellow crystal, such as citrine, topaz or tiger's eye. Place it on your solar plexus and direct the energy to that chakra. This chakra works with your will and will balance it, aiding you in changing your habits, to change your life.

Enjoy the new you!

Healing Conflict

2018-06-06T22:07:00.000-07:00

Negative attitudes and situations take a toll on the emotional body and it is wise to heal the energy in them, before the physical body sends out a message that can no longer be ignored through illness.

In your mind's eye see the other party and let them know how you regret what happened and state that you wish to heal it with their permission. Wait to see if they reply and accept what they have to say on the matter.

A Reiki healing visualization will assist by connecting to the other person or situation with the distance symbol, HSZSN and sending white light to connect and begin the healing process. Visualize the energetic cord between the two parties strengthening with pink light and allow that energy to flow for a while, then close their auras with a healing bubble of light filled with pink energy and seal them with the power symbol.

If the situation needs protection see your symbols flooded with golden light and use the emotional symbol SHK as well when closing the protection bubble around the parties.

Allow for your Higher Self's input during healing visualizations. It is very valuable.

Archangel Michael's Pyramid of Light

2017-06-20T12:29:00.002-07:00

The meditation with Archangel Michael and his pyramid of light has many benefits and I urge you to try it and use it from time to time and reap its therapeutic benefits assisting you to release emotions that no longer serve you and identify the vibrations which you lack at any given moment.

Sit in a comfortable position or lie down in a room where you will not be disturbed for about twenty minutes.
Breathe in deeply, to the count of four, then hold your breath to the count of four, and finally exhale to the count of four. Repeat three times. You should be feeling a little light headed, relaxed and ready to begin the meditation.
Visualise above you a huge pyramid of brilliant cobalt blue light, this is Archangel Michael's Pyramid of Light, which is now descending slowly above you, until it surrounds you, enclosing you in the pyramid. It stops when the base of the pyramid touches ground level, surrounding you with the blue light, cleansing your aura and filling it with healing, protective light.
In front of you stands Archangel Michael, who lovingly addresses you and invites you to confide in him. Tell Archangel Michael of all your fears, insecurities, negative emotions etc, and ask him to assist you in releasing any negative emotions, patterns of behaviour or limited beliefs, take your time to do this and really shed all that is weighing you down.
Trust that Archangel Michael will assist you in bringing all your emotions into balance.
Then, still in the pyramid, you visualise yourself projecting your energy into the ground, travelling down to the centre of the earth. You see a few large rocks and tie your roots around the huge rock, then walk into a cave, which has crystals of all colours lining the ceiling and walls of the cave.
You eagerly walk into the cave, fascinated by all the beautiful crystals, and feel drawn to a specific crystal and walk towards it, placing both hands around it and drawing the energy from the beautiful crystal. Make a note of the colour of the crystal you are holding. You allow your hands to stay there as long as is necessary to draw the energy you need, then, happy and feeling energised, you walk to the entrance to the cave and take a long look at the crystals lining the cave and feeling gratitude for the healing energy received there, start ascending back into your body, carrying Mother Nature's grounding energy with you.
You enter your body which is still in the pyramid and see Archangel Michael there guarding your body and waiting for your return. You thank Archangel Michael for his light and protection and you both say your goodbyes. Archangel Michael assures you that he will always be near and willing to assist you at any time you may need his assistance.
The pyramid slowly ascends, taking its magnificent blue light leaving you feeling refreshed, energised and healed.
You may now open your eyes and return to your conscious self. Do research about the crystal you held in the cave and its colour. Investigate its healing properties so you may identify what you've been lacking in your life and make the necessary adjustments to your life style.

Namaste!

Dolphin Healing

2017-05-15T10:04:00.000-07:00

Dolphin Meditation

Lie down comfortably where you will not be disturbed, listening to calm, meditation music.

Do three deep cleansing breaths by breathing in deeply while counting to 4, then hold your breath to the count of 4, then exhale to the count of 4. Do this three times.

Visualise yourself on a beach, warm sand under your feet, with calm, beautiful sea in front of you.

A small boat floats and approaches the sand, inviting you to step in. You climb into the boat and sit comfortably, then the boat gently moves a few metres away from the beach where clear blue water gently laps against the boat. You see a group of dolphins playing in the water and then you see them moving happily towards your boat and they stop about 4 metres away from the boat and invite you to join them in the water. You leave the boat and swim towards the dolphins, feeling warm in the water and feeling safe in the presence of the dolphins.

The dolphins surround you and the largest dolphin swims into the circle with you and tells you that you are safe and that they are there to assist you with healing your energy field. He then beckons to one of the dolphins to approach and he eagerly moves into the circle with a big black bag marked “negative emotions” he then asks you to release all your negative emotions into the bag, such as anger, sadness, envy, hatred, jealousy, disrespect, self-pity, loathing, etc. Visualise yourself releasing these into the bag. When you are done, the dolphin closes the bag tightly with a cord and swims away to dispose of the contents forever.

The large dolphin then beckons another dolphin to approach with a new bag marked “fears” and invites you to place all your fears in the bag such as fear of lack, fear of people, fear of inadequacy, etc. Dig deep and release all your fears one by one and relinquish them into the dolphin’s capable care, trusting that they will be adequately disposed of. When you have done this, the dolphin ties a rope around the bag and takes it away to be disposed of forever.

The large dolphin beckons another dolphin forward with a bag marked “health issues” and invites you to place in the bad all your health issues or illnesses which need to be healed, be they emotional, spiritual or physical. Allow yourself to take time over it so that all of them are handed over for healing. The dolphin will then tie a rope around the bag and take it away to be dealt with for your highest good.

The large dolphin who is the spiritual dolphin, will then beckon the white light from above and bring it down to go through your crown chakra, travelling down and healing you completely as it moves downwards, every cell, every muscle, every bone, every organ...healing completely on every level.

The light exits through your feet and into the bottom of the sea to ground you into mother Earth’s energy. You are then fully grounded and balanced.

Enjoy the energy as it fills you with light. Feel healed, refreshed and energised completely. The dolphin then thanks you for allowing them to be a part of your journey and you in turn thank all the dolphins for their gift of healing. The circle of dolphins opens and they wave goodbye as you return to the boat feeling like a new Being.

The boat gently takes you back to the beach, you step out of it, walk to the sand, turn and wave to the dolphins in the distance.

Energizing water and food with Reiki

2017-05-07T11:19:00.000-07:00

One of the many benefits of practicing Reiki, is to be able to bless food and water before consumption, enabling these to be energised and beneficial to the person using them for sustenance.

It is pure healing energy on a plate, instead of just another meal. The way the food is grown, harvested, handled and finally cooked, gathers outside vibrations, which may not always be positive and beneficial. These are energy vibrations that permeate all life and this energy is present in all things, animate and inanimate.

We should all be more conscious of the energy that we send out there through our thoughts and words, for these create vibrations in the world outside ourselves.

Expressing gratitude before a meal can change the energy of our food. Another way to change the energy of our food and drink, is to place our hands around the plate of food, or a glass of water, and consciously channel Reiki energy to the plate or glass, and allow the energy to flow for a few minutes; even three minutes will make a huge difference to the energy on that plate of food or glass of water. It will greatly improve its taste too.

When we become aware of the power of energy, we can create positive changes in every area of our lives. It is important to monitor our thoughts and intentions daily, in all that we do. Be present in every action and give our best at all times. By consciously working with energy, we can see improvements in all areas of our lives.

Reiki to help you cope with stress

2016-04-03T10:36:00.002-07:00

                                                                Coping with stress

Do situations in your day-to-day interactions have an effect on you, such as unground you and scatter your energy in a disturbing manner?

In order to escape from a pattern of worrying, you have to get in touch with the concept of 'now' and allow your thoughts to drift away, by using the following technique:

- Sit quietly in a chair and place your hands over your eyes with palms resting over your
cheeks;
- Move your hands to your head - cupping it on either side and allowing your fingertips to
meet at the top. this will relax you and help you to think clearly.
- Hold the back of your head in the same way, to relax the mind and calm you down. This
  makes you feel secure.
- Place your hands on either side of your chest, with your fingertips meeting in the centre. This
  will help release any negativity you have been experiencing and encourage feelings of
positivity.
- Finally, place your hands on your lower back, pointing downward. The stress should subside
  at this point.

Honour your Inner Guidance

2015-10-30T11:04:00.002-07:00

Our natural state of being is vibrant and happy to be alive but at times we may feel worn out.
This means that we need to restore our energy supply or try to find the cause for our depleted state.
Take a look at how you've been feeling and acting and you might find a behaviour pattern or relationship that is out of sync with you. It may be that you have too much in your hands to handle or there are people or situations in your life draining your energy.

Try to listen to your inner guidance in meditation to gain the clarity you need. When you are certain of what makes your heart sing, honour it in every situation and you will find that your energy supply will have a more stable high level which will serve you well.

Dealing with Irritation

2015-06-28T02:44:00.000-07:00

We will always have people or situations in life that we cannot control. The manner in which we respond to these will determine the quality of our lives.
As a Reiki Master, I have realized that certain challenging students / clients will be guided towards me for mutual benefit. In embracing the challenge, is a blessing of enormous proportions because I have acquired a good measure of compassion and understanding of where that particular soul is currently on their path and the best way to assist him/her with guidance is more easily grasped by me as if I were channelling it from the individual's spiritual guides, which is probably the case.

It may seem easier to just avoid networking with difficult people or situations by methods of avoidance. Irritation can be an important spiritual teacher and remaining centered in an uncomfortable situation is far more valuable than doing so in a happy environment.
Acceptance, tolerance and patience are attributes of the spiritually evolved, and trying to eliminate irritations instead of understanding them will not assist anyone to evolve spiritually. These are valuable opportunities to develop spiritual qualities and our lives are filled with them. Use them constructively.

Educating our Minds

2015-06-15T10:11:00.001-07:00

Educating our minds to operate on positive-mode is very important in order to move towards attracting abundance on every level of Being.
As we identify a feeling in us that is positive and that brings us joy and peace, we need to take the time to recognize what it feels like, so that it will become easier to re-produce.
We normally have the tendency to analyse a negative emotion, find the root cause of it and then take steps to transform it and improve the situation. Now we need to analyse the joyful emotions too and identify the possible trigger so that we use it more often to keep the vibration on positive. This practice greatly assists one to re-program and adopt a more pleasant way of going through one's life journey. It will hopefully turn into a habit to feel happy and teach others by example so that they too can change their lives.

Clearing Spaces With Reiki

2014-07-13T02:12:00.001-07:00

Reiki may be used to clear, harmonise and protect the spaces you occupy.

To do this, place the Power Symbols in each corner of every room and also on the floor and ceiling with a large symbol. Do this in your workspace too, be creative with this option as everyone's workspace differs.
Draw the Power Symbol, intone its mantra to yourself three times, and intend that the whole area is filled with Reiki.

If you do not yet have second degree, use visualisation techniques by sitting in a room you wish to cleanse, and intend that Reiki flows from your palms to clear and cleanse the area of any negative energy and fill the whole room with healing energy and light. You may visualise it flowing as a soft mist until it fills the whole space, then visualise the Reiki spreading like a white light until your whole home or workspace is filled with it.

Over a period of weeks you will sense a more peaceful feel as the Reiki gently peels away layer upon layer of negativity that may have been lying around for ages.

Reiki Precepts

2014-04-26T00:34:00.000-07:00

Meditating with the Reiki Precepts

One way of practicing the five Reiki precepts is by using the procedure outlined on Sensei Usui's tombstone.

- Find a place in your home, or use your regular spot for meditation.
- kneel or sit in your favourite, comfortable meditation position.
- Mentally call on the Reiki to come in, and then feel the flow of gentle energy.
- Put your hands in the gassho position at the level of your heart.
- Repeat the five precepts in your mind.
- Perform this ritual for five minutes in the morning and evening.

This exercise will assist you to become more aware of your thoughts and actions. It will gradually add positive vibration into your heart and subconscious self, overflowing into your daily life to assist you to worry less about trivial matters, and not overreact to situations which are beyond your control.

When starting this practice, be mindful that it is not an overnight success story; it requires your input and patience because it will bring to the fore those character traits in yourself which need re-adjusting. Listen to your intuition and apply the precepts to bring about the required adjustments, and then enjoy the benefits which are endless, on your life's journey.

Reincarnation

2014-04-20T01:45:00.000-07:00

Reincarnation

There are many reasons why people would want to experience a regression, such as fears and phobias, a recurring health problem, relationship challenges, etc.

The bottom line here is that you have lived before, the majority of souls presently incarnated on the planet will have lived a few lifetimes previously and it is no accident that we are together on this journey right now. We live in very "interesting times" indeed.

It is important to note that each lifetime that a soul experiences is an essential part of that soul's journey. Incarnations vary in that one may present you with a comfortable existence and the next one will be a challenging one and from each one, you learn certain lessons which your soul carries into a new lifetime in the next incarnation. Whether you are male or female now, you have lived as the opposite sex before and that applies to different financial status too. Different experiences are a part of the learning process as your soul evolves.

Before you decide to undergo a regression, be open to the various types of lives that you might have lived, so as not to limit you on the incarnations you can access. Experiencing your personal variety of lifetimes has the effect of assisting you to understand that we are all a part of the ONE and that in any one incarnation you might have been in anyone else's position.

Byosen * Scanning the body for blockages

2014-04-19T00:20:00.000-07:00

Byosen - Scanning the Body for Blockages

A practitioner's hands may feel heavy and slow as they scan through an area of the body. This dense area may be an indication of sluggish energy flow, which can be due to depression or emotional illness.

Giving a whole body treatment can bring this energy to the surface, making it easier to then sweep it out from the client's energy field and leaving him/her with a feeling of lightness.

Place a bowl of salt at the foot of the treatment bed, then sweep your hands over the client's body around the body, without actually touching it, three times, then these energies which have surfaced can be swept away from the client and into the salt. Remove the bowl and later wash the salt away down the drain placing the intent of cleansing and transmuting any negativity into positive energy to benefit all.

Dolphin Healing

2014-01-26T01:21:00.003-08:00

After the horrific killings of many Dolphins in Taiji again this year, it is heartening to see some Japanese people along with the rest of the world, are bringing awareness to this senseless practice of killing highly evolved Beings who are too beautiful and gentle to fight back and face human greed year after year.
Being attuned to Dolphin Reiki energy, this affects me deeply on an energetic level and I was guided to send healing to the Dolphins but mostly to their heartless killers, who obviously need healing the most. The energy band around them was so dense it was scary, and as I sent healing to them with tears streaming down my face, the Ascended Master Kwan Yin came through and took my hands to assist me in keeping the vibration of compassion towards those "human beings" as the healing energy flowed in its purest form with Her Help.
I am deeply grateful to Kwan Yin and the healing Angels that came through on that day and joined me in sending light to such a sad event.
I urge other Light workers to assist in sending light into these fishermen's hearts so that they may see Truth deep inside them and embrace a higher vibrational Path of unconditional love. The planet and universe have immense abundance which can be tapped into by all; align your energy to a higher vibration, and you can be abundant too, without resorting to greed at the expense of the suffering of other beings.
May love and light surround us all in the future.

Life Purpose Meditation Using Reiki

2013-12-05T09:03:00.002-08:00

Life Purpose Meditation using Reiki

One of the Reiki Precepts is "Just for today, earn your living honestly". This means so much more than its face value. It is to live one's own Truth, to live with integrity towards oneself and others. It is also to follow one's Life Purpose; to do what we love doing. If you do not yet know what your life purpose is, the following meditation may assist you to discover it.

- Star by sitting or lying down comfortably, and steady your breathing until it is deep and slow and you feel centered.
- Fill yourself with Reiki from head to toe, until you can feel the Reiki vibrations in your hands, and sense that it is
flowing all around you, within your body, outside your body, filling your aura and raising your consciousness.
- Imagine yourself somewhere beautiful, a setting of your choice; a beach, or a flower-filled meadow, or a sunlit forest
glade, and spend a few moments connecting with that image engaging all your senses as you do so.
- Imagine that a little way ahead of you is a ladder, a rainbow, or a beam of light coming down from way up high, and
walk towards it and begin to climb up the ladder, or allow yourself to slide up the rainbow or beam of light. (If you have
  Reiki second degree you can imagine that the ladder or beam of light is the Distant Healing Symbol, connecting you
  with the higher realms.)
- As you climb higher you become aware that your body is becoming lighter, until you realize that while you are still
recognizable as you, you no longer have a dense physical body, but a body of beautiful, rainbow-coloured light.
- As you reach this realization, you also reach another higher dimension, and waiting for you are some wise beings of
light, and you can feel the happiness and unconditional love flowing from them as they welcome you.
- You follow them to a place where you can all sit together, and they invite you to ask whatever you need to ask. On this
  occasion you have come to ask about your life purpose, and how much progress you have so far made on your life path,
and what else you need to do to fulfil your purpose and your potential in this lifetime.
- Give yourself plenty of time to receive the replies, which may be in words, images, symbols or physical objects,
showing where you are now, and where you are going. If you are presented with a scene you do not understand, ask for
clarification - these are high spiritual guides, including your Higher-Self, and their intention is purely to assist you as
lovingly as they can.
- When you sense that you have been given all the information that is there for you at this time, thank the Beings of Light
  for their help and let them lead you back to the top of the ladder, rainbow or beam of light, but know that you may return
  here whenever you wish to ask for guidance.
- With a final goodbye, allow yourself to slowly descend until you reach the bottom of the ladder, rainbow or beam of
  light, and spend a few minutes in that beautiful place you have created remembering what you have experienced.
- Allow your awareness to return to your body, feeling the chair or bed beneath you, and hearing the sounds in the room.
If you feel a little dizzy, clap or shake your hands for a moment to bring you back into full awareness.
- Finally write down what you have just experienced, so you can examine it a few times to gain as much insight and
inspiration from it as you can. You may find you have been given a full life plan, or just one or two points, or the first
you do this exercise you may just get a feeling of deep peace, but persevere and in time you will get the information you
  are seeking about your life path and life purpose.

Adopting a Spiritual Lifestyle with Reiki

2013-11-25T11:42:00.000-08:00

Living your daily life in a more spiritual and rewarding manner does not have to be complicated and here are a few ways in which to simplify the way you navigate through your life lessons:

- Clear your clutter, both physical and emotional; regularly clear superfluous items from your home and donate them to a worthy institution.
- Devote some time to spirituality regularly, such as meditation, reading self-help books and joining an inspirational workshop or retreat.
- Review your life regularly and what you would like it to develop into; solstices and equinoxes are ideal for this practice.
- Make time for joy and relaxation, nature-walks, a bubble bath and quality time with loved ones.
- Look after your body by feeding it with healthy foods, water, enjoyable exercise and rest.
- Release emotions and thought patters that no longer serve your higher purpose as these will block your energy flow. Commit to a life filled with joy and ease.
- Raise your vibrational frequency with regular Reiki treatments.
- Trust your inner guidance and let the energy flow, allowing it to bring you what you want and need without attempting to control the outcome.

Effortless Being

Effortless Being

As you embark on your Reiki journey, you come to the realization that there are times when it is best to Let Go and Let God.
Letting go of the past allows us to experience the flow of all things, including our own lives. Life has been likened to a river, and like the river, the flow of our time and of our lives is effortless.

There is a danger in always trying to alter things and arrange the world to suit ourselves. The saying 'go with the flow' means accepting what cannot be changed, accepting and loving life for what it is and realizing how limited our powers are to fashion it.

Exercise:
Sit on your meditation cushion, or on a chair. Close your eyes and watch your breathing for a moment or two. Notice the rise and fall of your abdomen and feel a sense of impermanence in the moment. In the act of breathing you are going with the flow of life. By going with the flow in meditation, you can come to realise that there is a part of yourself outside time, which is not subject to the change and impermanence of material life.

Lighting Up The Chakras

Our energy centres or chakras are associated with colours; the base chakra with red; the sacral chakra with orange; the solar plexus chakra with yellow; the heart chakra with green and pink; the throat chakra with blue; the third eye chakra with indigo; and the crown chakra with violet or white.
Working with the colours of the chakras can help you redress the imbalances that occur when there are blockages in our flow of subtle energy.

If you are a Reiki practitioner with Level II, visualise the power symbol in the palms of your hands and activate it before you begin the following meditation. if not, then just follow the meditation as indicated:
Focus on the colours of the chakras by visualising drawing in your breath at the base chakra and watching it light up each chakra in the associated colour as it travels up to the crown chakra.

Sit on your cushion. Close your eyes and on the first in-breath visualise white light entering at the base chakra, which glows a bright red in response. Picture your second breath entering in the same way but following up to the sacral chakra, which shines orange. Then, on your next breath, imagine the light reaching the solar plexus chakra, which glows yellow. In subsequent breaths imagine the light reaching in turn the heart chakra and shine green or pink, the throat chakra shining a blue light, the third eye chakra shining indigo light and finally the crown chakra shining violet or white.

In your mind's eye, envision each chakra radiating light in its own colour and finally, imagine all of them glowing at once.
Rebalancing your chakras in this way will boost your sense of well-being.

Raise your Vibration

Raise Your Vibration

Everything in the universe is made of energy. The speed at which it vibrates determines its density. For example, light vibrates at a very high frequency, and something like a rock vibrates at a lower frequency but a frequency nonetheless. Human beings also vibrate at different frequencies. Our thoughts and feelings
can determine the frequency at which we vibrate, and our vibration goes out into the world and attracts to us energy moving at a similar frequency. This is one of the ways that we create our own reality, which is why we can cause a positive shift in our lives by raising our vibration.

Think of someone you know who has a bubbly personality. Vibrant literally means
"vibrating very rapidly".

The people who strike us as bubbly or vibrant, are resonating at a high frequency, and they can inspire us as we work to raise our vibration. On the other hand, we all know people that are very negative or cynical. These people are vibrating at a lower frequency.

They can also be a blessing in our lives, because they can show us where we do not want to be vibrating and the reason.

Take a moment observe yourself and try to rate your vibration in order to start your inner work to raise your vibratory rate.

One of the most practical ways to raise your vibration is to consciously choose where you focus your attention. To understand how powerful this is, take five minutes to describe something you love unreservedly; a person, a special place, an experience. When your five minutes are up, you will noticeably feel more positive and even lighter. If you want to keep raising your vibration, you might want to commit to spending five minutes every day focusing on the good in your life and feeling gratitude for having it. As you do this, you will train yourself to be more awake and alive. Over time, you will experience a permanent shift in your vibrancy.

Receiving a personal Reiki Symbol

Receiving a Personal Reiki Symbol

All students of Reiki learn about the process by which Dr Usui received his Reiki Symbols on the mountain after his 21 day meditation, however, we are not told that we might receive the gift of a personal Reiki symbol and how this would come about.

Talking from personal experience, of course, after completing my Reiki Master training, I did a lot of research in Reiki and Meditation, but it is our own personal experiences which become invaluable during this process. Two years into practicing Reiki, and while sitting in front of my computer, I found myself looking into a few very bright lights which insistently shone next to my right eye and affected my vision in a frightening way, because I could not focus on anything. Having heard about bright spots of light as a sign of an impending migraine, I was worried that it might be the case although I had never had one of these signs before then.

I excused myself and moved to a room where I could be alone and proceeded to do self-healing on my head. As soon as I closed my eyes, the lights shone even brighter and I could clearly see a symbol being formed. I had never seen this symbol, but as soon as I realized it had to be a Reiki symbol, it faded into nothing and was gone completely. I went back to work, bewildered but feeling very grateful for having been honoured with my own symbol. Then came the questions: What am I supposed to do with it? When do I use it? What is its name?

I meditated on it several times but the answers would not come to me, so I left it in the Universe’s embrace and decided to wait patiently and without questioning, for the Universe has its own sense of timing. It took another six months until I understood what the symbol was to be used for and the appropriate name for it. It came in a meditation, it just stood in front of my third eye area and then there was a picture which told me in no uncertain terms, the name and use of the symbol.

Since then I have been prompted to use it during treatments both distance and hands-on sessions. On a few occasions it has appeared in front of my eyes again, even while I am driving, and then I know it has to be used on myself for healing and protection. As soon as I direct its energy to the area where it is needed the most, it starts to fade away as it works. It is an astonishing experience and one which I am deeply grateful for.

Dr Usui’s experience was definitely not a figment of his imagination; those little lights do bring with them a powerful symbol, never doubt it for a moment.

I have recently received a second symbol but am still trying to discover its meaning and name.

I hope all you Reiki Masters out there will share in this experience one day if you haven’t already. It is a priceless gift from the Universe.

In Love, Light and Truth
