“Journeying Across Miles for Transcendence: Embracing the Reiki Retreat Experience”

I am so excited for the upcoming Reiki retreat hosted by Reiki Education and Research Institute (a.k.a RERI). Year after year, at every RERI retreat, I have had the opportunity to experience energy work that has helped me connect with my higher self and speed up my own healing. I have been lucky enough to benefit in many ways from attending the RERI retreats. Usually, the benefits don't just last for the duration of the retreat but last far into the year after completing the retreat. It is quite a long journey for me to attend, and it takes a lot of time and planning for me to come; however, the benefits of attending far outweigh the discomfort of the journey and the planning needed to be able to attend.  Recharging body, mind and spirit at the Reiki Retreat:   The first major benefit that motivates me to make the trip is just how well it recharges me, not only spiritually but physically as well. The energy of the retreat has continually been so strong, year after year, I have been amazed. I still can't quite believe how this has not changed as the location and the attendees have changed over the years. The high energy has never lessened, and the quick recharge I get from attending is truly unmatched. No amount of self-Reiki or other practices I have tried have managed to recharge me this quickly in such a short amount of time. I still remember the first time I attended the retreat in 2010, not knowing what to expect; I was in such an anxious and nervous state. Now I truly just feel joy looking forward to the upcoming retreat.Elevating my vibration through the Reiki retreat A second benefit I receive by attending is elevating my vibration for the rest of the year to remain in a state of gratitude, joy, and love. I find just being immersed in this specific Reiki community, living amongst one another for four days intentionally, with the purpose of healing not only ourselves but the world within which we live, is the most uplifting exercise anyone could experience....

Benefits of Simplified Living

In a world where we are bombarded with so many material things, sometime downsizing can be very liberating. Things take up space, need to be kept running or clean, things begin to pile up and more space is needed to store more things.   Today there is a movement to have less things but more experiences. People long to see, explore and enjoy life and each other more than collecting and purchasing things to fill a building they call home.  These people long to see nature, enjoy an uncomplicated way of life, and find outstanding value in each other, family, friends, and community.  Yes, they still have a home, but the space is filled with essentials and yes, some things that make them incredibly happy, but this space is much smaller.  Their home is called a tiny home.   Tiny home is not a new idea:   You may think a tiny home is a “new” idea, but it really isn't.  Many years ago, Henry David Thoreau decided to go out in the woods next to a beautiful pond, build a one room cabin and contemplate life. He wanted no distractions, he wanted to experience a simple life, commune with nature, and write about that experience.  His cabin consisted of an area to cook, sleep, and write. He was only going to stay for a few months in this one room cabin but after realizing he had all he needed, he stayed for two years.  Little did he know this 2-year experiment would be the start of a new way of living for many.  Hince the book called “On Golden Pond” The beauty of a tiny home: A tiny home is very economical to purchase and maintain. It is built to use space wisely. The tiny homes are much more economical to warm and cool, ceiling fans circulate the air both in summer and winter, many have gas or wood burning fireplaces. Most of the tiny homes have outdoor firepits for entertaining or enjoying a cool night outdoors. Tiny home community on the beautiful South Cumberland Plateau in Tennessee: The tiny home community is in the town of Tracy City Tenn. It consists of many tiny homes...

Building Connections: Fostering a supportive Reiki community

Imagine a world where healing hands come together, creating a tapestry of compassion, support, and transformation--a world where the power of unity thrives and ignites a collective force of Reiki practitioners dedicated to personal growth and healing of the world around them.   From the gentle touch of a Reiki healing session to the shared wisdom and empathetic connections, Reiki generates profound impact on individuals, groups, communities, cities, countries and the world at large.    In this blog post, we will explore the essential role of a unified Reiki community in personal transformation and its potential to create a global healing phenomenon. Unity Amplifies Impact:   A unified Reiki community harnesses the collective energy, experience, and wisdom of its members. By pooling resources, knowledge, and perspectives, practitioners offer stronger support to one another, creating a ripple effect of positivity, healing, and transformation throughout the community. Fostering a Safe and Supportive Environment:   A supportive Reiki community cultivates an atmosphere of safety, trust, and acceptance. Here, practitioners can express themselves authentically, share experiences, and seek guidance without judgment. This nurturing environment fosters personal growth, healing, and emotional well-being, empowering individuals to explore their own journeys with understanding and encouragement. Learning and Expansion: Within a Reiki community, practitioners embrace diverse experiences and perspectives, deepening their understanding and expanding their skills. By sharing insights and experiences, they become more aware of the dynamics of the greater community they live and work in. This enables them to bring their knowledge to the larger group and contribute to collective growth.Navigating Challenges Together: The path of a Reiki practitioner may present challenges and moments of personal growth. In a supportive community, practitioners find solace, encouragement, and guidance...

Renew and refresh on Spring Equinox

Today is a day of perfect balance.  There is the same amount of daylight as there is darkness. The Spring Equinox is celebrated as not just the first day of Spring but as a time of Rebirth and Renewal. This is the beginning of new life springing up all around us in nature. Things are coming alive that have been dormant for the winter months. Why not look inside and at our surroundings and consider how we can refresh and create a vibrant environment for new experiences and growth. New experiences get us excited. Growth may be in the physical healing of our body, the taming of our emotions, the clearing of our thoughts and a renewal of our connection to all that is on our spiritual level.  To celebrate this balance and create inner balance. There are exercises we could do to support our journey on all levels at this opportune time!  Let go of that which no longer nourishes you while attracting all which you wish to manifest in your life.  Make a list entitled:  I Release  Write down all the things that are no longer serving you or holding you back.  Intend that you are sending these things to the universe to be removed from your life. Burn the list with that intention.  Make a list entitled: I Manifest Write down all the things you wish to attract into your life. Intend that you are sending these things to the universe to be attracted to your life. Burn the list with that intention.  Doing both exercises creates a balanced effort first it clears out all that is no longer serving you and then fills that gap with things that can blossom into the life you desire.  Remember that if you clean out anything it will fill again naturally.  So doing both ensures that the stuff that replaces the old creates a new, refreshing and uplifted spiritual connection to all and supports your life journey.  If you are a Reiki practitioner, ask the energy to flow to the process as it will support, guide and ensure success that is for your higher good.  Wishing everyone a wonderful...

Stories of Talking Stick

There are many stories about the origin of the 'talking stick' and how it was made and how it was used by various Native American tribes across North America.  In the Northwest, the 'talking stick' was typically a staff carved with symbolic tribal or clan crests of the speaker or chief that typically resembled a small hand held totem pole.  It was held by the chief or designated speaker at public gatherings or 'potlatches' as a symbol of authority and importance.  When Speaking, the speaker would thump it upon the ground to emphasize the importance of the message being delivered to the group.    In upstate New York, the 5 North American Tribes came together to talk and listen to each other's grievances and disputes in an effort to resolve them so they could all live in peace.  They did so after many years of talks under the leadership of Deganawidah and formed the Iroquois Confederacy.  He believed that each person wishing to speak during these meetings be given an opportunity to share their valuable ideas and thoughts while the others listened. To ensure that everyone had an opportunity to speak, he started a tradition of passing a decorative ceremonial 'talking stick' around the circle giving each person the opportunity to speak.  He found that when the speaker held the 'talking stick' they spoke from their heart and their message would be listened carefully by the others with their hearts.   The stories of talking stick are interesting.  Over the 10 years of RERI sponsored retreats, they have made a practice of passing a ceremonial 'talking stick' around the circle allowing each participant to speak from  their hearts as the others listened with their hearts.  It has been a powerful tool to encourage participants to share their inner most thoughts and emotions.    This year, as the Retreat Planning Committee began to plan a virtual event entitled 4 Week Spiritual Journey Creating a Paradigm Shift in lieu of RERI's annual Retreat, and with the help of our go to...

A powerful way to create a paradigm shift!

A powerful way to create a paradigm shift   What is a paradigm shift you may be asking, a paradigm shift can be a theory or a group of ideas about how something should be done, made or thought about. When there is a shift or change in these established ideas and replaced by new and different ideas, you have a paradigm shift. A personal paradigm shift is a change of our personal viewpoints, perceptions, old beliefs and assumptions that are no longer applicable or hindering our growth.  2020 is the most challenging year in decades, the world is filled with negative energy, anger and fear. People are fearful of the current health risks caused by the global pandemic. It has also created political and economic uncertainty. The corona-virus is continually changing how we live our daily lives. We hope that the current situation will eventually awaken into a new and better world.  As President Kennedy suggested, out of crises can emerge new and incredible opportunities. Our world is in need of a major paradigm shift and there is a powerful way of creating a new world paradigm shift for the highest good of all  if we all focus on the positive side. Quantum physic states everything is made up of energy, including our thoughts and emotions. Fear and anger are energy that manifest negative human behavior and drive people to say and do things they would not normally be prone to.  If we allow these emotions to dominate our life and be the driver of our decision-making process, it becomes a destructive force impacting ourselves and the people around us. Sadly, people aren’t always conscious of how powerfully our negative emotions can impact people and escalate situations. Many of us feel strongly about change. Our spiritual sense tells us trying to change the world with anger and fear-based behavior is not effective. On the contrary, it perpetuates the cycle of negative energy in ourselves and others. We need to ask ourselves if we truly want to change the world for the...

In time of uncertainty, RERI’s desire to bring healing to our communities and the world has never been stronger.
