Slow Down and Heal
When was the last time you allowed yourself to truly, completely rest and recuperate?
You need a deep healing rest.
For now, it is time for reclusion or retreat. Find a quiet space and seek solitude.
A question arises: What needs to heal? How much time will it take?
This isn’t just an ordinary rest. This rest involves your body, your mind, and your spirit.
Slow down. Take time to transform and transmute your experiences as you renew. And, as you renew your body, mind, and spirit, encourage those around you to participate in this renewal.
Is this a time for faith? Deep healing and new beginnings rely on faith for unexpected outcomes.
This is a time for deep rest.
Remember, rest is a birthright.
DO THIS
Do you practice Reiki? Do you receive Reiki? Do you meditate? Or…Do you have a mindfulness practice?
If not, try something easy and accessible. Choosing Reiki or meditation is a way of choosing yourself.
MEDITATE
Sit down and relax. light a candle. Burn incense. Listen to calming music. If you have one, hold a crystal or rock.
You need a private and safe space to focus your breathing. After each complete inbreath and out breath, let there be a moment to let yourself just be. Breathe deeply from your abdomen to let quiet and peace seep in.
This is a time to completely slow down and relax.
You notice that you are holding a small amethyst crystal in one hand. It begins to grow warmer in your hand. The power of this crystal radiates out into your hands, up through your arms, into your shoulders, and, finally, into each body part.
As it radiates its healing warmth, you feel comfortable and safe. After a few moments you feel the full power of the violet flame in this crystal. You feel this flame purifying, forgiving, healing, and transmuting every cell of your physical, mental, emotional, and energetic body.
You visualize it traveling through your emotions, your thoughts, and your memories. You notice it cleansing any recurring patterns of negativity in your complete body.
As this happens, you release negativity into the flame of the candle. You see it transformed into light. The negativity is being consumed.
You are lighter now. You feel this moment holds your world in divine order.
You accept this perfection in deep gratitude.
You rest in this healing moment. You feel safe. You say to yourself: “I love and accept myself just the way I am. I belong in this peace.”
You realize it’s time to return to the outside world. You know that you can return to this space any time you want.
You thank your crystal for its healing energy. You slowly shake your arms and legs now.
You gently return to the world – healed. You can share your peace and calm with others now.

Are you Searching for a Life-Changing Boost? – Try This!
Every once in a while, you may need a life-changing boost.
You find yourself in a situation where you need access to some extra power to change your life. You know you need this because your emotions and reason are conflicted. They are telling you so.
You may even be at a point where you feel there are two truths in your situation. There is the truth which works for you and there is the truth which also works for someone else.
When this happens, consider the discrepancies in the truths in your life. Listen to them. Meditate on them. Study the reality. Maybe both options are bad.
You know you have the skills and resources to make a decision. Something is holding you down so that you cannot get to the outcome.
Pause for a moment. You know you have everything you need. What should you do?
Do these three things:
First, set aside your frustrations. This sounds easy but it can be challenging.
Second, clean your glasses so that you can see the problem for what it actually is. Consider your wants, needs, and loves. Write a list of the pros and cons of the situation.
Listen to your internal guidance and close your eyes. Trust your inner self to know the answer. It can be that the best advice you’re going to get comes from within..
At this point, you know you have everything you need to reach the conclusion you need. You are seeing the issue for what it actually is.
Finally – do you see an outcome? NO?
Well, if you do not see the solution and you are, indeed, seeing the problem for what it is …then there is one last and final step. Trust your judgement.
Get up and walk away.
Walking away from the problem is a viable and realistic option when you do not see any other way.
Many people stay in a situation with an unacceptable outcome because they don’t realize that they can leave.
Leaving the problem behind is a viable and realistic option. There are times when walking away is the best option.
DO THIS:
This is the time for a self-care activity. Reflexology and/or Reiki are soo good for you at this moment. Indulge yourself. This is not a luxury.
MEDITATION:
Begin this meditation by settling yourself in a private and safe space.
Get comfortable.
If it’s appropriate and comfortable, you may want to light a candle, burn incense, or play healing music.
Close your eyes to begin your meditation.
Begin slow, even breathing from deep in your abdomen. Breathe in clean, healing air. Breathe out toxins and negativity. The regularity of this slow, deep, breathing will guide you to get in touch with your inner power and knowing.
After a few breaths, you realize you are walking along a path in a gentle forest area. As you walk along, you notice the aromas and sounds of this place. The flowers and birds in the area call out to you. You begin to feel that you are in a private park.
Walking along, you see a beautiful little clearing with a bench. You know that you are being invited to sit on this bench. As you sit on the bench, you see light coming down from above. It is directed at where you are. Slowly and gently, the light gets brighter and you feel yourself becoming filled with light and healing energy.
You feel that you are in this space at this time to allow you to ponder your question. You understand that your question has prevented you from feeling the oneness you share with the universe.
You ask yourself if you feel unworthy of the answer. Maybe you are experiencing guilt. Maybe you fear the earth. Or, maybe it is several things combined. You allow these feelings to come forward.
Now, you see them leaving you. You are letting them go. You see the light becoming brighter now. It is filled with healing for you and your situation. You feel yourself being absorbed by the light as it’s healing allows you to just BE.
This is a heart-expanding moment. You feel at one with the energy. You want this energy to be in your life.
You enjoy this experience for a few more moments.
It is time to return your awareness back into your area. Slowly and gently bring yourself back.
Know that you can return to this space whenever you want.
