\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

When was the last time you allowed yourself to truly, completely rest and recuperate?<\/p>\n

You need a deep healing rest.<\/p>\n

For now, it is time for reclusion or retreat.\u00a0 Find a quiet space and seek solitude.<\/p>\n

A question arises:\u00a0 What needs to heal?\u00a0 How much time will it take?<\/p>\n

This isn’t just an ordinary rest.\u00a0 This rest involves your body, your mind, and your spirit.<\/p>\n

Slow down.\u00a0 Take time to transform and transmute your experiences as you renew.\u00a0 And, as you renew your body, mind, and spirit, encourage those around you to participate in this renewal.<\/p>\n

Is this a time for faith?\u00a0 Deep healing and new beginnings rely on faith for unexpected outcomes.<\/p>\n

This is a time for deep rest.<\/p>\n

Remember, rest is a birthright.<\/p>\n

DO THIS<\/p>\n

Do you practice Reiki?\u00a0 Do you receive Reiki?\u00a0 Do you meditate?\u00a0 Or…Do you have a mindfulness practice?<\/p>\n

If not, try something easy and accessible.\u00a0 Choosing Reiki or meditation is a way of choosing yourself.<\/p>\n

MEDITATE<\/p>\n

Sit down and relax.\u00a0 light a candle.\u00a0 Burn incense.\u00a0 Listen to calming music.\u00a0 If you have one, hold a crystal or rock.<\/p>\n

You need\u00a0 a private and safe space to focus your breathing.\u00a0 After each complete inbreath and out breath, let there be a moment to let yourself just be.\u00a0 Breathe deeply from your abdomen to let quiet and peace seep in.<\/p>\n

This is a time to completely slow down and relax.<\/p>\n

You notice that you are holding a small amethyst crystal in one hand.\u00a0 It begins to grow warmer in your hand.\u00a0 The power of this crystal radiates out into your hands, up through your arms, into your shoulders, and, finally, into each body part.<\/p>\n

As it radiates its healing warmth, you feel comfortable and safe.\u00a0 After a few moments you feel the full power of the violet flame in this crystal.\u00a0 You feel this flame purifying, forgiving, healing, and transmuting every cell of your physical, mental, emotional, and energetic body.<\/p>\n

You visualize it traveling through your emotions, your thoughts, and your memories.\u00a0 You notice it cleansing any recurring patterns of negativity in your complete body.<\/p>\n

As this happens, you release negativity into the flame of the candle.\u00a0 You see it transformed into light.\u00a0 The negativity is being consumed.<\/p>\n

You are lighter now.\u00a0\u00a0You feel this moment holds your world in divine order.<\/p>\n

You accept this perfection in deep gratitude.<\/p>\n

You rest in this healing moment.\u00a0 You feel safe.\u00a0 You say to yourself:\u00a0\u00a0“I love and accept myself just the way I am.\u00a0 I belong in this peace.”<\/p>\n

You realize it’s time to return to the outside world.\u00a0 You know that you can return to this space any time you want.<\/p>\n

You thank your crystal for its healing energy.\u00a0 You slowly shake your arms and legs now.<\/p>\n

You gently return to the world – healed.\u00a0 You can share your peace and calm with others now.<\/p>\n
