Celebrate!

Can you take time today to honor the end of a cycle?.  This is your opportunity to acknowledge your achievements.  It’s also time to explore the spiritual meaning of your life.

This is your celebration because today’s feelings can come only from the inside out.  You won’t get there waiting for someone else to create your happiness for you.

Because happiness comes from within, this is a good time to know and honor a fact of life:  You are the one who brings gratitude and generosity into your life every single day.

How?

Focus on those you love.  Share your heart energy today and every single day.  This is where you find happiness.

you manifested this moment.  This is your own success story.

DO THIS:

Journal a conversation with your inner child.  Explore something you might not have understood in the past.  Offer love and affection to your inner child now.  Explain your feelings.  You are complete as you are.

What do you expect to happen in the future?

Now, lay your hands on your journal and send it love and peace in the moment.

MEDITATION:

Go to a safe, secluded and comfortable space.  Sit in a comfortable chair.

Allow yourself to relax and feel good about your situation and your self.

take several breaths which begin deep within your abdomen.  Breathe in gratitude and positive thoughts. Close your eyes now as you inhale.    As you exhale, visualize all negativity and toxins leaving your body and your space.

You are relaxing now.  As you breathe, feel this calm coming up through your feet and your legs.  Feel this deep relaxation as it enters your entire body.  In a short time, feel your inbreaths filling your entire body with light and positive energy.  All is positive.

After a few moments of in and out breaths, you feel deeply relaxed.

You open your eyes and see that you are sitting in your chair under a large, inflated helium balloon.

You are so relaxed that you feel weightless.

You realize that you, your chair, and your helium balloon are floating up and up and up.

You are are above the trees now.  You look around and see this new vista generated by your place above the trees.

Still rising, you float through a cloud.  Looking down, you see the earth as a ball of light.  You enjoy the love and acceptance coming to you from the earth.

After a few moments, you know that it is time for you to return to your quiet space and your celebration of your self.  You begin to float down, down, down.

You return to this space where you began your journey feeling happy and relaxed.

You take a deep breath.  You know you can return to this journey any time you want.

Nostalgia & Past Lives Take You to a Place You’ve Known Before: Today. How do They Connect?


Past is a huge word.

When you think about its meaning, memories of times gone by surface.  Your timeline stretches beyond this lifetime to include previous lives.  It includes friends, family, love, careers, childhoods, adult events, conquests, and wounds.

Nostalgia reminds you of the wisdom of your past experiences so you see lessons learned and patterns repeated.  These memories influence your todays and tomorrows.

Gather the nostalgia of your past, bless your memories, and value the importance of the present.  This is where you are now.  TODAY

Begin with forgiveness.  Each day is an opportunity to use your personal history to help you as you move into the future.

Reminiscing and reconnecting ground you in your timeline of success.

DO THIS

This is a good time for a Reiki therapy session.

MEDITATION

Gently close your eyes and take some deep breaths. You may want to sigh and exhale.  Indulge yourself.

Stretch a little.

Yawn.

Breathe in and breathe out.  Notice your body adopting a regular pattern of breathing.  This is easy for you as you relax.  Notice how you relax on the outbreaths.

As you continue to relax with each in and out breath, allow yourself to travel to a meadow.  Relax into the atmosphere.  Notice the sun as as it shares it warmth for you.  Feel a gentle breeze.

You become aware of the meadow where you are resting.  Notice the grass, flowers, shrubs, and trees.

Feel the peace of this space.

Feel how you respond to the surroundings in this meadow.  Absorb the feelings of safety and peace.  Accept the wisdom of this place.  Feel your power here.

Most of all, feel safe.  You are safe here.

You look around and see a path.  You know that this path invites you to journey toward a moment of letting go.

You know that you can let go now.  You know that forgiveness means you’re moving on without lugging around so much baggage.

You know that this is a moment of peace of mind and inner calm.

You can experience miracles and blessings along with forgiveness.

At this moment, you forgive yourself as well as the other.

You are being set free.

You sense that you are moving to a new normal.  You’re at a new normal.

You are forgiven – now and forever.

You linger with this feeling for a short time.

Now, when you are ready, return to the room.  Return feeling lighter than when you left.

You stretch your muscles slowly.  And you smile.

You know that you can return to this place whenever you want.  This place is always waiting for you to experience more letting-go.

Boredom: Is it Safe for Me Right Now?

Have you had the chance to be bored lately?  It’s certainly not exciting.

But such luxury!

Boredom comes on the heels of fun, joy, and all good things.  Sometimes, when boredom sets in, I wander through the house wondering things like:  Why?  What should I do now?

Once I define my situation:  the blahs! – I like to take a little time and reflect on this experience.  Truly, I’m a little afraid of boredom.

Boredom, after all, creates space for new and different and creative things to germinate.  Unexpected opportunities will appear, that’s for sure.

Meanwhile, I think about boredom.  Sitting is for thinking.  Lying down is for  recharging.  Sleeping is for healing.  Standing is for action.

Sitting invites unexpected opportunities.

When I’m bored, I stop and talk with myself about encouraging unexpected opportunities.  I know they always come:  hand-in-hand with boredom.

It’s easy to live with boredom.  After all, “blah” is safe, if nothing else.

When, if, you can shake off boredom, you’ll discover opportunities you’ve never noticed before.   They’ve been hiding just out of sight.

This is also a good time to focus on things you can create.   Tap into a timeline which isn’t available right now.  It’s there though.  Just out of sight.

Take time to meditate now.  Slow your mind a bit and heal.  Meditation can  release old emotions, making room for renewal and newness.  This helps you become comfortable.

Begin with an out-of-the-way spot where you feel safe and comfortable.  Take a deep breath.  Hold it for a moment and exhale.  As you inhale and exhale, release old memories, fears, and everything that no longer serves you.

Release tension with each exhale.

Breathe in all that you need with each inhale.

With a final inhale, see that you are walking in a forest.  Observe the stillness and the quiet as you walk along.  Smell the trees, flowers, and the clean green of the forest.

As you walk along, you come to a small pool with a gentle waterfall.  There is a bench just on the edge of the pool.

Everything is clean, quiet, and inviting.  You remove your shoes and clothes and put them on the bench.  Then you step into the pool.  The water is just the perfect temperature.  You enjoy the feel of the water as you sit in the pool

While you are  surrounding yourself in the pool, you look at the area around the edge of the  pool.  You notice the plants, the trees, and the sunlight coming down through the trees in the area around you.

As the water surrounds your body, you feel renewed, cleansed, and refreshed.

You feel like a new person.

After a short time, you look around and know it’s time to leave the pool.  You step out of the pool and find a new towel on the bench.  You dry yourself with the towel.

As you reach for your clothes, you notice they are different from the ones you left there.  These new clothes feel soft and shimmery as you put them on.  They fit you perfectly.  The colors are your favorites.

The clothes fit perfectly.  You look different now.  You feel different, changed somehow.  You begin to walk away from the pool.

As you walk away, you come to a figure on the path.  You know, without being told, that this person is joining you to answer a question you have in your heart.  .

The answer to your question appears in your mind and heart.

You know now, it is time to return to the present as you receive the wise being’s  blessing.

You leave the pool area on a path.  Feeling positive, you notice your surroundings.  You are ready to process the information you received in the forest.

It’s time to return to the present.  Filled with gratitude, you know that you can return to this place any time you want.

You send messages of gratitude to your family and friends.

Begin Your Adventure! How to Maximize An Opportunity to Give You Hope Again

Your opportunity is a powerful game changer.

Opportunities can be emotional, healing, and intimate.  They give you hope again.

Not coming around often, your opportunity seems like a gift card.

Whenever it appears in your life, one thing is sure:  You may not see the size, shape, weight, or anything else about your opportunity..

You may not know yet how much or where you’ll spend your opportunity’s currency.  It may even be difficult to impossible to visualize how your opportunity will end up.  .

Begin the adventure!

Connect with this.  Feel it.  Smell it.  Hear it.  Let it touch your heart.  Take it and make it what it will eventually become.

However this opportunity develops, use it to fulfill your dream.

Sometimes beginnings can be challenging.  The moment can be profound, even.

As your opportunity takes shape, the events may be powerful.  This can release creative and intuitive emotions.  When this happens, you may connect with your opportunity physically and spiritually.

Give it the definition It needs.

This may guide you to forgive and heal yourself.  Get ready.  Self-acceptance can be expansive.  This can be good for your opportunity and its definition.

Pay attention to the activities in your unconscious self.

You are opening up your self.  Protect your heart. It is open and filling with love.

A good step now is to write yourself a letter.  Support yourself here and now.  Welcome the growth you experience.  Embrace change and all the wondrous things coming your way.  Give yourself permission  to be the person you choose to be.  This includes your thoughts, emotions, and everything making you who you are.

Breathe in those things promising your success.  Radiate power, confidence, and whatever supports it.

Receive your talents and everything else in the world important to your self.

Accept those positive gifts and “run with them” as my grandmother used to say.

Spend time receiving Reiki therapy and reflexology sessions.  These sessions promote balance and homeostasis.  They will support your opportunity journey in ways you may not know at the moment.  Balance and homeostasis cannot be overstated.

Running on Empty

 

We all have days like this.

I’m tired from the inside out.  My body is tired.  And, I’m tired of being  tired.

When I get this tired, I feel low – lacking.  Hopeless is the word for this moment.

I feel that my world simply left me out in the cold.  My world dropped me off somewhere empty, shut the door, and plans to forget me.

There is no one out there for me.  Nobody is offering me nourishment.

I am alone in this – alone and empty.

I am depleted.

There is only one way out of this:  kindness.

Kindness is color in the black and white landscape.

When I feel this way, I turn to my old standby:  Reiki therapy.  When I receive a Reiki session, I reconnect to my inner strength.  I see the magnificent rainbow color in the bleak black and white landscape.

The door is closed – but it is not locked.  My task now is to open the door.

Thank you for reading this article.

I’m Getting By

How are you doing?

Sometimes, when we ask a person how you’re doing, we learn that you need to take a breath and pause.

Often, when a person says “I’m getting by”, the subject is about  money.  The vocabulary for “I’m getting by” includes frugality, guarding, security.  “I’m Getting By” is really an accurate way of saying:  I “Have only enough”.

If you are getting by, the chances are you’re addressing your money wounds.

This may be a good time for that.  After all, we all have money issues.

Money is loaded with memories.  They go back beyond our parents who themselves passed their parents’ own money stories down to us. Getting to the bottom line, money is a legacy.  Everyone has a money legacy.

Take a moment to call up your first money memory.

Do you remember a time when saving crossed over the line into hoarding?

Do you journal?  Have you ever journaled  your money stories, memories, and issues?  I don’t ever remember discussing journaling about money.

Serious healing can begin with money journaling.  Money journaling addresses  insecurities and abundance blocks passed down for generations.

Some day, when you have a chance, hold some coins in your hand and see them as mandalas – spiritual markers in your life.  When you see mandalas instead of coins, the light in the room suddenly becomes more clear.

The mandalas represent the part of the self which is the core of your money interest and experience.

Have you thought about how trust blends with your money issues and your life goals?  It seems these things are all braided together.

Money is not the end in itself.  In the final analysis, it’s not the money.  It’s how we respond to it and deal with it over time.  It’s how we respond to the money in different situations in life.

Meditation will help you become aware of your inner money potential.  Reiki and reflexology are two grounding and healing modalities which can help you explore  your legacy and your future.   Include healing modalities in your money growth whenever appropriate.

When things seem to be working well, prosperity flows into your life.

Are You Stuck? This Body Scan Can Help

I’ve used this easy mindfulness technique for years and I love it.

Use it to help release tension that you hold in your physical body.

Begin your body scan by finding a quiet, comfortable place where you feel safe.  Your best location is one where you won’t be disturbed.

Sit in a comfortable resting position where you begin to lengthen and deepen your inbreaths and outbreaths.

Focus on your body, noticing any sensations such as pain, tightness, warmth, cold, or tension.

Begin by focusing on your feet.  What do you find?

As you notice tension or other sensations, breathe deeply, coaxing your feet to relax.

Observe the tension leaving your body with your out breath.  Let the tension disappear into the air.

Now, work your way through your body.  Repeat this process through your calves, knees, hips, back, shoulders, arms, elbows, wrists, hands, fingers.

Finish  the first phase of this scan with your neck, jaw, face, eyes, and head.

When you reach your head, move your attention back down your body.  Repeat this process ending with your feet.

When you finish with your feet, place them on the floor.  How do they feel?  Stay with this feeling as long as you are comfortable.  When you are ready, slowly get up.

Move your muscles around slowly.  Move your head from side to side.  Slowly swing your arms from side to side.  Move your legs around.

Take your time with these slow, luscious. focused movements.

When it is time for the scan to end, thank your body for taking care of you to the best of its ability.

If you don’t have time for a full scan, focus on the body parts where you  experience tension.  The important thing is to do what you can with the time you have.

This scan is also a good practice to do before sleep because it helps both your body and mind relax deeply.

A Meditation for You and for Now

The bottom line about meditation is this:  communication.

A meditation can be done anywhere.  But the best location is the one where you are in a quiet place, uninterrupted, and where you can relax and feel safe.

A good meditation posture is the one where you sit or lay down with your eyes closed in whatever position is most comfortable for you.

Like other forms of communication, the more you practice meditation, the more you will be receptive to the energy and greater awareness of the activity.

At the beginning of your meditation, you may want to light a candle, ring a bell, burn incense, play soothing music.  You may hold a meaningful store or other symbol such as a cross or star.

Close your eyes and focus your breathing as you inhale and exhale slowly and deeply.  Think about your breath as you inhale and exhale.  Breathe slowly and deeply for the next several minutes while you allow your sacred self to take control.  This will let you calm your sensory perceptions.

Notice how your body relaxes with each breath.

This quiet time is a priority.  With every breath, you relax a bit more deeply.  Light and energy and positive thoughts enter your body with every inhale.

Allow a sense of well-being and gentle relaxation to cover your entire self.

Toxins, anxiety, and frustrations leave your body with each exhale.  This is a good time to discard discomfort.  Relaxation replaces the toxins with every breath.

Breathe in healing light and warmth from the crown of your head down through your body – your upper chest, your back and spine, down your abdomen and pelvic areas, hips, thighs, and down your legs to your feet.

Your breath will guide this light to encircle your body and circulate around your body several times.

When you are ready, gather the energy at your feet and let it flow up your body to your head.

See this energy flowing out from your head as a fountain of light.  It gathers at your feet in a pool of energy and then flows back up to the crown of your head.

Repeat this fountain flow several times – as long as you like.

When you are relaxed, comfortable, and energized, it is time to leave the meditation and return to the room.

Open your eyes.  Gently shake your arms, hands, legs, and feet.

Now, smile, knowing that you can return to this space whenever you want.

 

Your Body Scan: Use This Ritual When You Need Uplifting Calm and Well

Have you ever experienced the luxury of a body scan?  Have you ever heard of a body scan?

This little-known technique releases tension effectively. Use it often. Your muscles, bones, and nerves will thank you!

A body scan helps you release not only tension, but also pain, tightness, or warm areas.

Begin your body scan by finding a quiet place where you can sit or lie in a comfortable position. As you get comfortable, encourage your breath to become deeper and slower.  Lengthen your inhales and exhales.

Focus on your toes.  What do you feel?  If you feel tension, allow your toes and feet to relax.  Encourage tension to leave your body with every exhale.  See the tension disappear into the air.

Now, repeat this process as you work your way up through the rest of your body.  Pay attention to your feet, calves, knees, thighs, hip and pelvic area, back, shoulders, upper arms, elbows, lower arms, hands, neck, jaw, face, eyes, and scalp.

Notice what you find:  Stress, tension, stiffness, cold areas, tight muscles.

When you reach your scalp, reverse the process and move your attention back down your body. When you finish, you will be back with your toes.

Now, notice how your feet feel.  What about the rest of your body?

Stay with this feeling for a few minutes.  Enjoy the relaxation and calm  for as long as you want before ending the session.  Take as much time as you wish.

When it is time to end the scan, move your body just a little.  Shift into the here and now.  Let the calm soothe your body – from the toes to the top of your head.

Take a slow, breath and join the here and now at your own pace.
