Quote for today.

Each morning when I open my eyes I say to myself:
I, not events, have the power to make me happy
or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be.
Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I
have just one day, today, and I'm going to be
happy in it.

Groucho Marx

QUESTION!

What is happiness?

What does happiness mean to you?

over the next few days invite reiki energy to work with you,

Contemplate...................................

BE MINDFUL

As you flow through your day, put the word MEDITATION at the end of all the things that you do.

• Washing up meditation


• Eating meditation


• Shower meditation


• Work meditation

when you do this you become mindful in every minute.

Every thought is in the now.

Smile and be your smile, radiate your light.

Look it in the eye......

To love and live by the power of 'INTENTION' is to know who you are in the moment.

Look that word INTENTION in the eye and contemplate.

Just how important is intention to you?

What sized space is it taking up in your life?

Do you think about what your intention is on a regular basis, or is it just something you've read about?

Today, take some time to think about what INTENTION means to you.

What do you know about it, where does it fit in to your daily routine?

How does INTENTION relate to your reiki practice?

Try this

Fill a green bottle with water, call on Reiki, say a short prayer or blessing and leave it out in the sun to charge with energy.

Fill a clear bottle with water and leave it inside, don't do anything with it.

Taste the two types of water afterwards. The water in the green bottle charged by the sun should taste mellow in comparison and be highly charged with healing.

The charged water is also great for feeding plants, they tend to grow a lovely strong root system and really healthy strong green leaves.

It's the perfect time of year for trying this out, as new growth springs up everywhere and we're celebrating the re-emergence of the sun after the long Winter months.

Clearing the air, calming the mind

I've been using a reiki space clearing method for a while now and thought I'd share it with you.

I was having trouble sleeping so I asked for guidance about how to help to calm the rooms energy. I was shown in my minds eye a beautiful picture of Cho-Ku-Rei, it was a huge, 3D golden version of the symbol, spinning very slowly in the middle of the room.

Having been given this insight, I walked into the centre of the room, calling on Reiki and saying a short prayer.

I drew a Cho-Ku-Rei symbol with my fingers in the air. (you can visualise yourself doing this process rather than doing it physically)

Immediately, I could see in my minds eye the symbol starting to rotate slowly and shower the rom with tiny glitter particles that filled the air with healing energy. It looked like a Catherine wheel.

After using this method successfully, I realised I could use the process while I was in any busy place with uncomfortable energy. I simply call on Reiki, hold the intention of cleansing the energy and visualise the process of drawing Ch-Ku-Rei in the centre of the room. I then visualise the beautiful symbol turning and scattering its positive, healing.

I use the same visualisation method when my head feels very busy. I simply visualise myself drawing a Cho-Ku-Rei symbol in the middle of my mind and imagine it starts spinning, it's a very slow spin remember!

Try it yourself and let me know how you get on.

The elegant orchid

I love to pay attention to the beauty of the orchids in my home, my dear plant friends .



I see a huge sprinkling system of Reiki pouring over them with thousands of tiny reiki symbols and golden light particles that glisten and sparkly keenly.




The orchids love it, I can sense their delight at having attention.

I delight in their beauty. We both embrace Reiki.

LIGHT THE WAY WITH YOUR SHINING REFLECTION

Light is at the forefront of my thoughts this week. It's even more pronounced now the days are longer and the sun has blessed us with warmer hours.


I've been contemplating the following this morning:


The sun, there it is in the healing blue of the sky, suspended like a golden disk of light.


Sunshine, warmth and light embracing us as we wander the earth, revitalising and bringing hope.


The sun reflecting from surfaces all around us forming our perspective and perception of the world.


All aspects of the same, all aspects of one.

Contemplation number 2: Reflect on this reflection

We see the light as it reflects off surfaces, dancing, shodows playing, but it's only on the surface of water that we can see the sun's true face, there we can truly see its power. When the water moves, the reflection moves, nothing is constant, all is changing and yet the fundamental elements are still there.

There is water, there is sun. You observe the water and the sun appears there, they are now one, the water and sun, the earth and sky and in the middle is me the observer.

The sun is our father, the masculine, as the earth is our mother, the feminine. Embrace the balance of energies.
