Reiki is for everyone

What is this? How the heck do I pronounce it? Why would I be interested in it?

Reiki (RAY-kee) is a healing energy practice. It is a gentle, non-intrusive, non-touch (or optional touch) therapy. The recipient remains fully clothed. Reiki brings a sense of wholeness, deep relaxation, peace, and well-being. (Yes, please!) This practice assists in the body’s restoration of balance — physical, mental, emotional, spiritual — so that the body can more effectively heal itself.

You cannot be any other being today.

Supercharge your morning (part 16)

“What is one thing you can do this morning to make all your tomorrows be your best yet?”

Just for this morning

aim for your target

and shoot at it.

If you miss,

look at where the arrow has landed.

It might just be in a better place.

Tom Evans, Supercharge Your Morning

Set your sights on something amazing. (Idea, inspiration)

Then, let ‘er rip. (Action on that idea)

This, or something greater.

And so it is.

What’s your luminous, big idea? What is your target toward that, today?

Supercharge your morning (part 15)

“What is one thing you can do this morning to make all your tomorrows be your best yet?”

Just for this morning

create a clearer future.

What’s past is past

Make clarity your watchword.

Clear the decks.

Tom Evans, Supercharge Your Morning

“How does your day look?” When I ask myself that simple question, I can easily become torn between opposing thoughts. One, I want to intentionally stand down from constant overdoing (my natural resting state — oh, the irony). I’d prefer to create a state of ease and joy and peace and Glide. “Let’s just see what the day brings.” Two, I actually do have things that need to be accomplished (both for this day and for overall goals, dreams, and projects). Although I want to be open to the possibilities of my unfolding day, if I want something to happen then for crying out loud I need to attend to it. “Let’s simply roll up the sleeves and get to it.”

On the one hand, I don’t want to completely dictate my day and not leave room for unexpected blessings. Yet I also don’t want to be a victim to my day by only waiting to see what it brings for me. Yikes! I’m already all angst-y and I haven’t even finished my coffee.

And then, I clear the decks.

Joy happens

Okay, if practicing joy is how I become joyful, then how can I do more of that? I get the idea of giving joy before waiting to receive it, and that’s working pretty well for me. Giving joy to others, to the world, gives me joy as well. (Have you been trying it too?!?)

I’d like to experience how else can I give joy / receive joy / become joy.

You may already know that we are made from pure Love. That we are Love. That Love is our essence, our natural state. But did you know that joy is our natural state? It’s true. Let’s look at the math:
