back to basics

 Last week I was completing a garden for someone when I pulled my back quite badly. The human mind told me she was annoyed, frustrated even... "why now?". But the reiki told me to stop and listen to what my body was trying to say. It was my back... Firstly that means it concerns ME. who am I ? What do I want from life ?
Next day i awoke with sudden dizziness and ear problems.... a confirmation that I wasn't listening to my body. It was to confirm that the back was sending a message, and I hadn't listened.
So. Who am I ? Well that I do not know. But I look forward to finding out.
What do I want from life ? Well... a lot more. I want to live more holistically. I want to be smaller in size... I feel that as a being I have become lighter, but my heavier body is holding me 'back'  a little. I am doing a lot more physically in terms of healing... but to help others I need to help myself. And to do that I need to be a lot more healthier both physically and energetically. I need to self heal with Reiki and just take care of myself. And energetically if I am able to heal people, they will be drawn to an aura that is healthier !
So next time you have a physical issue... stop and think what your body is trying to tell you. Metaphysically a physical problem is the last stage of an issue that has manifested in your energy field quite some time before.

Oil Pulling

One thing I have tried recently is Oil Pulling. The theory behind it is that toxins and bacteria that is found in the mouth, if not removed, will enter your system and toxify your immune system. Oil pulling involves swishing a tablespoon of cold pressed non refined oil (i use coconut) around your mouth. Push the oil through your teeth and use the tongue to move it all over the areas of the mouth and tongue... but dont swallow the oil. After around 5-10 minutes spit out the oil (and the harboured bacteria).. and use a flouride free toothpaste to clean your mouth. It can take a few weeks to see the effects of extra energy and vibrancy, and whiter teeth... but I'm told to keep at it !! Ive only been doing it for a week, watch this space !

Reiki is NOT just channeling energy !

If there is one thing I have learnt since being attuned at level 2, Reiki is not just about channelling energy. For those people that think Level 2 is just about being able to practice and earn money, well that may be perfect for them, but for me it is much much more.
Reiki is about living with the principles that were given Usui Mikao. It is about embracing the lifestyle and living as though you ARE the energy that you are channelling. It has only been in this last week of being attuned to level 2 that I have realised this. Its not another holistic therapy under my belt, it's a new, much more promising way of life.
There are a few things that I have to put into practice a LOT more. Although everything in a given moment is perfect, and just right for you, this doesn't mean that you sit back and allow Reiki to do things for you. You still have to take a lead on your life and make the changes, but just allow Reiki to guide you and assist you. I read once that it doesn't matter who you go to for therapy, medicine, cures, YOU are the only one that is actually healing yourself. Your wonderful human physical body is the one that is healing... and Reiki assists. More posts to follow on Reiki..... especially regarding Metaphysical healing. But right now I feel enlightened regarding a new way of life that is about to take place for me.

I completed my Reiki 2 today... wow. If anything was meant to happen this year, it was that. I have had a massive awakening... my perspective has changed already so much. I AM REIKI. I AM THE ENERGY, THE 100% ENERGY THAT I AM CHANNELLING.
Going with this flow of energy can be a new way of life for me.But to accept that I have to trust that this will happen. Its a different way to live. But that's what I want to do, live ! I don't want to just exist anymore. This 100% energy is everything, everyone. And to get back to this 100% I have to allow it.

Change in life is inevitable. It is how you embrace that change that determines whether you can be at peace or restless about it.  The last few months have been very dramatic in terms of change for me. I feel I have become much more mature as a person. I no longer yearn for the attention of so called friends. I am me. I can be alone and be happy. I feel this is part of a change that is becoming an awakening. I am doing level 2 Reiki next week and I feel it is my time. I feel more ready than ever to live with the Reiki principles. But inevitably this means saying goodbye to things and people that have become toxic. And I know this needs to happen. My life is about to start over, and I couldn't be happier !
