BREATHING IN REIKI.........

Hi and welcome again to another sparkling and awe inspiring week.

I've recently been working a lot with the chakras and opening up to my creative abilities, mostly experimenting with different media, it's all good.  Just the word 'Experimenting' works like a magic wand on my inner thoughts, allowing my inner creative spirit the chance to jump up and down and grab anything to hand that makes art.  It provides me with the equivalent of an on button, to create without judgement, cos that's what experimenting is.  It's like childs play.

I've also been working with Reiki to help with the creative process and it's certainly liberating. 
I start with the intention that Reiki will lead me to create new and exciting ideas, that divine colour will enter into my being and fill me up with inspiration.

I draw the power symbol on both my hands, on my third eye with the intention that I'm connected to my creative source and on my crown allowing the creative spirit of Reiki to enter me.  Then I sit for a while and let the ideas and messages of wonderment come tumbling in.

If I get stuck with with ideas at anytime, I use a kaleidoscope or a bugs eye lens to inspire, it's good to see things through a different lens.


The second thing I've been trying out is to visualise drawing the Power symbol in my mouth, with the intention that Reiki will work with me to inspire compassionate speech.  This is followed by the Master symbol with the intention that I am guided to say the right thing, at the right time and in love.

This has really helped me to focus on the way I speak to people and to enable me to contemplate the way in which my words impact others.  It's not about getting things perfect, but about bringing about change in the way I approach day to day actions.  Bringing my awareness to the intention I have for the day or situation etc.  Its also about working with Reiki in as many ways as possible to bring about change, understanding and moments of enlightenment.

There are so many ways to use Reiki that it feels like a real waste, not to experiment with using the symbols and intention to expand my understanding of the way I interact with other colourful beings and any situation that arises.

Try visualising the Power symbol on each of your eyes, along with your third eye and intend that you will see specific situations clearly, or with expanded awareness.  See how you get on.

WORKING WITH REIKI OPENS DOORWAYS

LETTING LIGHT FLOOD IN.

LIVING REIKI CHANGES EVERYTHING

OPENING HEART, MIND AND SPIRIT TO LOVE.

RELEASE AND MOVE FORWARD FEARLESSLY.

Had a flash of insight the other day that I'd love to share with you.  Inspriation seems to be coming in thick and fast at the moment, so I'm siezing the opportunity to put it to good use.

Find yourself a comfortable place to have a bit of quiet time.
I suggest you ground and centre yourself first in preparation.

Open to the light of Reiki:
Imagine yourself under a waterfall of white light, it's pouring down all over you, feel it washing against your body, paying special attention to the back of your body.  Your aura fills with light and radiates out love.

Now the light enters the crown and fills your physical being with light.  Pay particular attention to your extremeties, your toes, hands and fingers.

Picture each of your chakras, starting with the root chakra.  See them shining out their bright colours, one at a time, slowly moving up the body, draw the Power symbol on each.  Intend that they are opening to the light.

Ruby Red Root chakra, Autumn Orange Sacral, Yummy Yellow Solar Plexus, Glorious Green of the heart (or pink if you prefer), Cobalt Blue of the throat chakra, Deep Indigo Blue of the most beautiful starry night sky which is the third eye chakra and then the Vibrant Violet of the crown. 

Open your imagination, give it permission to flow without judgement.  If you see something other than the colours mentioned, just go with it.  Remember to Sparkle on, you're unique.  Feel free to re-write the rules.

Now relax.  Take a few minutes and breathe in the light and scrumptious feeling of Reiki doing it's energetic dance in and all around you.

See yourself standing in a mist of colour, any ones that come to mind.  You see the colours merging, changing, shifting, nurturing and good.

As you watch yourself, be it an exact replica or an outline of your human body, you see another version of you step outside of the rear of yourself, hands outstretched and facing the past.  Send Reiki to the past

- if you're attuned to the symbols then draw the distance symbol as a bridge between the past and the present and then draw the emotional symbol in order to heal all the things that are no longer necessary for your journey, or for your higher good.  Ask that Reiki strengthen your ability to let go of any old outgrown thoughts and to transform them into new commitment so that you can focus on love and self love.

Turn and re enter your body, face forward merging with yourself and giving Reiki in the now.  Fill your body with a rainbow of colours, wrapping yourself in acceptance and love. 
Repeat: "I walk forward fearlessley, sending Reiki widsom to the future".  Use the Master symbol to create a stronger connection with Reiki energy and the Great Spirit, opening to love, to your commitment and focus on being kind to yourself. 

Repeat the following:
All fear is released
I Believe
I Trust
I have Faith
I am Guided
All is well

Walk into the mist of colour in the future and send Reiki for as long as you feel you want to.

After this exercise I finish off by re focusing on the waterfall of light and Reiki pouring over me, entering my crown and filling me with light.

I hope you enjoy this journey.  Much love.  Mavis.

I SAW A SIGN

I returned from my Djembe drumming session, parked the car and looked up.  This is what I saw!

A ray of sunlight must have caught something and reflected onto this stone wall.  It was a reflection of an illuminating moment during my drumming session.  Illuminating it certainly was.

I started drumming a few weeks ago, so not long, but instantly felt that Reiki was constantly my companion while I played the lovely Djembe drum.  My hands were literally buzzing and felt alive with excitement. 

I get lost in the rhythms and my heart lights up, it feels like I'm a child learning the beats of the earths rhythms, it's something I can do independently or with others.  I like the fact that I have a choice.

I quickly realised that I had built a relationship with the drum.  I affirmed my gratitude to the earth for providing the sustenance to produce a tree that was so fine, to make the base of the drum.
I expressed gratitude for the dear goat that had given it's hide for the drum surface, for the person that had carved the wooden base, the person that had put my drum together and blessed the whole process -the creation of my drum.  I called upon the spirit of Reiki to help me to make music and the spirit of the goat and tree to work with me - to be grounded and yet have fun. 

The experience has created a oneness with the instrument.  Music has awakened a spirit within me, a part of me that remained encased in the past, struggling to master the flute when I was younger and feeling under pressure to play the Saxophone which I found really difficult, lets just say I didn't consider myself a natural, although I made reasonable headway. 

Now as the little block of light on the wall illustrates, I've been able to light a spark inside me that really loves to express myself with music.  I feel free to beat out the rhythms of my choice, to beat the rhythms from deep within and to fuse with the beat of the earth.

Let Reiki open yourself up to creativity, it will light up your life.

Blessings.  Mavis x

I'm back and I rejoice in the space that this blog finds me in.

At last I've made it through to the time when I can uncurl and reveal myself strengthened and ready to walk forward.  OOOOOhhh, I've learnt so much about myself since the long, long time ago that I last wrote my blog.  But it's all good.  Today's photos are related to bounding through the gateways that have just opened to me.  My whole being's just gone woosh and I've given myself the push I needed to finally put my words and thoughts into action and away I go through that doorway, where once I lay down and waited while the whole world just carried on, I've jumped up and I'm bounding forwards.  The lovely little orange flower reminds me of the beauty of the orange leaves that are everywhere and the amazing light that catches these golden hues.  Yum, so scrumptious.  Also connected to the Sacral Chakra it raises my awareness of the things that need addressing - creativity, manifestation, lessening my issues of needing to control things - outcomes etc and finding a balance.  Not scary anymore I'm accepting, learning and moving on.  Everyday I observe my thoughts and everyday I use Reiki more and more and boy is it having a profound effect.  I shall report back soon as I hop, skip and jump along my new path.  See you soon.x
