Integrating your Mind, Body and Soul into ONE Cohesive Whole
It is time to take your power back, be your own best friend, and love yourself the way you have always wanted to be loved. Connect back to the Soul you are meant to be! And ultimately discover true inner peace and deeper relationships with friends and loved ones.
Unfortunately, most of our current culture does not foster this crucial connection back to ourselves, resulting in a constant state of unhealthiness and discomfort for so many. Somewhere deep inside is a voice longing to be heard, a body sending us messages, and yet instead we look for external answers, someone or some substance to help us out.
The true meaning of health is "free from illness or injury". In order to truly be free, all parts of our being have to be aligned, including the conglomerate of vibrations that make us up. Whether you call it an Energy, Soul, Quantum Field, Prana or Chi, it needs to be cared for and nurtured just like any other part of the physical or emotional self. That is where energy healing, such as Reiki can come in. Reiki provides a connection point between our physical and spiritual worlds, helping to re-align and re-unite the whole self.
"Every object persists in its state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line unless it is compelled to change that state by forces impressed upon it.”
-- Sir Isaac Newton
As miraculous and evolved as the human brain is, it is hardwired to choose survival over truth, which means uncomfortable patterns are basically stuck in our unconscious neural circuitry. That is, unless some new force is introduced. Reiki is an energy that overrides the negative unconscious bias, so truth can prevail. And that truth is ALWAYS based in love and healing.
Self Awareness Brings Healing
Our past is forever intertwined with our present, purely as an evolutionary step towards survival. After all, we need to be able to learn from our mistakes. In theory anyway. In today's world our past (whether from this lifetime, a past lifetime or the trauma passed down in our genetics) often maintains its stressful grip on us in ways that feel counter to survival. We get stuck in emotional and mental triggers that cause discomfort on so many levels.
Luckily for humans, the Soul wants to learn and evolve, just as the body wants to grow and heal. And so in order to "fix" the discomfort, it first needs to be listened to and acknowledged. Sometimes this discomfort is purely physical (like a headache caused by a loud noise) and sometimes there is an underlying energy block that prevents the healing.
The brain cannot always see the energetic blocks, just as the brain is not always consciously aware of the vulnerable tendon, impending back pain, lurking infection or building anger at a given situation. Until it is. Sometimes a full body mindfulness scan is all you need to trigger an awareness that brings healing - i.e. you start stretching your neck muscles intermittently while at your desk when you realize your neck is achy, or you take a few mindful, slow breaths to calm your anxiety.
However there are times when these simple techniques are not enough, when the underlying energy block is great enough that your conscious brain cannot easily pinpoint the problem. That is where energy work can help, and it all starts with the Self.
No matter what the issue is or the underlying cause, the body and the Soul want to survive. It is up to you to decide what that survival looks like. As you take time to become one with yourself, you become more self aware, which in turn
brings new perspectives and compassion - for yourself, others and the Earth. It is the ONLY way that we can truly learn to love ourselves, find our strengths and unlock our unique gifts. Reiki is one resource that can help us connect back to ourselves through the process of self awareness.
