Life can be pretty hectic.

Just living in the world can throw you off your center. My wife is pregnant at the moment with our third child and something that I have noticed is how much her rythmn changes when she is pregnant.

Donyo is naturally quite a gentle and shy person. And, when she is pregnant, I notice her energy becomes even more gentle and the pace that she moves through the day becomes even slower.

There really could not be a process that draws you back to the center of your being, much more than that of pregnancy. The process of creation. That must be what most of us believe the essence of our life itself to be?

I think that natures rythmns are actually our (humanity’s) natural rythmns aswell.

And, I think if we can keep ourselves in harmony with natures rythmns we will find ourselves more relaxed, able to cope with stress and problems better and just generally happier.

Reiki helps restore our harmony with nature.

 

Reiki comes from the essential living energy that permeates the world. At its heart reiki is the nature of nature. The essence of life.

Reiki is just one form or manifestation of the essential nature, and is a form that lends itself to healing and establishing balance, in a very gentle and peaceful way. Reiki is not a forceful healing energy. (But, the truth that it uncovers may be confronting at times..)

Keeping you center, keeping yourself balanced is very difficult in our fast paced western lives. We are multi taskers. We work, have families, study, play, pay our bills, go out for lunches, surf the net.. all in one day! But on top of that we are surrounded by so much activity.. billboards bombarding us at every turn.. shopping centers merchandised to the max.. busy busy busy..

It is hard to keep your authentic, natural center.. amidst all this.. it is hard to hear your gentle, quiet inner voice in a world that loves assertiveness and ambition.

Reiki.

That is the answer for this reiki person. That is what helps me. But, I really believe that people’s connection to their soul, their spirit life, does not need to come necessarily from something that looks like spiritual practise.

For my mother it is long walks in nature.

That is what brings her back to her ‘path mind’. Her mind that is closest to her intuition and her soul. For the old man that lives across our street and loves our kids, it is tinkering in his immaculately organised and loved workshop shed.

Whatever works. That is what I reckon. At least to start with.

Then if you are lucky you might be inspired to take it deeper. (And maybe even deeper still..)

You may find yourself reading reikiblogger! lol. I hope everyone finds adventure in their spiritual path. It is the biggest and greatest adventure, for sure.

When you have a hard time re-gaining your center..

#1 Sit quietly for a couple of minutes, (build an intention to give yourself reiki)

#2 Lie down gently and give yourself 10 minutes of reiki with one hand on your heart and the other on your solar plexus

#3 Just give yourself reiki. Do not analyse what you are thinking, were thinking, not thinking.. whatever.. just give yourself 10 minutes to receive a short reiki session

#4 Fold your hands at your heart and give a little pray of thanks
