Intention – A Road Map to Your Future
Put your future in motion!
And, how do you do that?
Your first step is to set your intention. After all, you can’t know where you’re going until you know where you’re headed.
Take a few minutes to write an affirmation that represents you once you’ve reached your goal.
Your second step is to open your journal and lay out the change you want to see in your life based on your intention.
A Reiki session honoring your intention and the change you want to see is appropriate here.
For example, if you want to get a new job, you may write an affirmation such as “I have the perfect job.”
Visualize what you will look like and how you will feel when that change happens.
Visualize changes you may experience as you move toward your goal.
Next, consider a few things you’re going to do to make that perfect job happen.
They may include:
write a winning resume
search online
network with people
contact prospective employers
follow-up after each interview
Once you have your list of things you’re going to do, it’s time to act on your to-do list.
Occasionally, it’s important to take a look at your notes and see what things have happened. Are you progressing toward your goal?
You may want to include regular Reiki, reflexology, and meditation activities to stay connected with your intention and your journey.
Occasional questions will help: How is the universe intervening in your behalf? Do you need to adjust your intention?
As you begin to circulate your resumes and interview for your job, it’s helpful to remind yourself that you have a job when you have a start date, a specific place to report to work, and know the starting salary.
You may want to include these things in your adjusted intention.
As time passes and events occur, you may want to revisit your notes. Did you reach your goal? What twists and turns occurred along your path?
Finally, is it time to set a new wheel in motion as you adjust your intention.
Ask yourself this: How has the universe moved in your behalf in conjunction with your efforts?

A Reiki Practitioner’s User Manual – Part 2
When I studied Reiki, Mary Ruth Van Landingham’s classes and handouts were my user’s manual. They didn’t even begin to approach all the things Reiki can do for us all. I think Mary Ruth Van Landingham did that intentionally because we each write our own user’s manual.
Reiki is a unique and individual experience for each of us. Our attunements are the user’s manual for each of us.
I learned to practice Reiki on my massage therapy clients. Each one got a 10-minute Reiki boost at the end of the massage therapy session. Because Reiki was still unknown in my area, none of them had ever heard of Reiki. Their introduction to Reiki came during the last ten minutes of a massage therapy session so it came at a moment when they were blissed out, pain free, and totally relaxed. Needless to say, they all loved their Reiki.
This was good for me also because I was new to Reiki and was fearful about the results. It took a while for me to become accustomed to how Reiki worked.
I worried that they might not receive a proper introduction. So, what happened was that both my clients and I learned together. For starters, we learned to recognize my warm hands when I introduced Reiki into a session.
Over time, I learned that my hands warmed up whether they were on another person’s body, or my body, or a plant, or a car. Or whatever.
I learned to trust Reiki. This was a huge life lesson for me. I suspect it is also an important lesson for others as well. Many people go through life never learning to trust people, places, or things.
When I teach Reiki, I don’t think I even mention the word trust. The word floats above the classroom like a gorgeous cumulative cloud. It’s there for all to see.
A wonderful thing to do is practice self-Reiki to experience a regenerative sleep, easy your headache pain, feel comfortable in your body, or simply feel grounded.
Actually, it’s not necessary to do anything with Reiki. Just enjoy having received your Reiki attunement(s). Rest. Heal. Let Reiki be with you.
You do not give up anything to learn Reiki. Reiki does not test you in any way. Reiki is not a cult. It does not come between you and your religious beliefs. You do not need to change any of your core beliefs.
Instead, Reiki opens doors and windows of learning, opportunity, and enlightenment for you…if that is what you want. For some, changes are apparent, immediate, and outward. For others, changes are slow, careful, discreet. It all depends on you, your situation, your life path.
Some students, after receiving their attunements, internalize their new skills. Reiki is private, intimate, internal.
Other students use their newfound skills, practice Reiki and give sessions at every opportunity.
Neither way is better than the other. In all cases, Reiki assists you on your path. For me, there is nothing more beautiful than to travel one’s life path.
