Reiki Newsletter- January 2010

Dear Friends,

I wish you all a happy New Year filled with abundance of health, peace, prosperity, love, and joy. I am so excited for new beginnings that the New Year brings. It’s perfect time to rejuvenate, make new resolutions and start on a clean fresh page. Speaking of wishes and resolutions… have you made your New Year resolutions yet? It’s not too late. Here are some tips how you can create your resolutions and send Reiki for their materialization.

Manifesting a reality starts with clear intentions (remember Secret: The Law of Attraction?). What you focus on, you attract to your life.
Ø Express your New Year resolution with clarity. Instead of saying “I want to be happy”, define happiness. Say “I want a new job that will bring my highest potential” or “I want to be in a relationship where we can share and grow together”. In stead of “I want a new car” say the model and the color and add any other details as possible. This shows how clear you are with your goal.
Ø Always use positive statements in current tense. Instead of saying “I don’t want to be sick”, say “I am completely healthy”.
Ø Visualize yourself as already accomplished your wish or resolution, i.e. you can visualize yourself at the front yard of your dream home, at the office, or in a loving relationship. Visualize as many details as you can.
Ø Think about what emotions you’d have when you accomplish your goal. Add that emotion to your vision. Feel the breeze of the ocean or sand in the beach, warmness of the sun in your face when you’re in your dream vacation. Feel the joy, the happiness, the contentment of accomplishing your goal.
Ø To empower your goals with Reiki; you can simply write down your resolutions on a piece of paper or visualize it.
Ø Activate Reiki by saying an intention or affirmation like “I’m opening myself to Reiki”. Feel the gentle current of Reiki.
Ø If you know Reiki symbols use them at this time. If you are using visualization, beam Reiki to the image as if it’s in a screen in front of you. If you prefer to write it down, take the piece of paper into your palms and provide Reiki.
Ø Send Reiki to the image or to the paper for 5-10 minutes, or as long as you feel your wish is accomplishment.
Ø Well, the work starts after you send Reiki. Make an action plan and work towards your goal. I’ve just updated my personal OGSM (Objectives, Goals, Strategies and Measures) and I’d be glad to work with you individually if you’d like to create yours. This is a tool I’ve adapted from corporate world. It starts with having a vision, mission, achievable goals, and measurable targets for your goals. It works amazingly!
Ø It’s also very important to prepare yourself for your goal and bring your surrounding conditions ready for the materialization of your wish, i.e. check internet resources for healthy diets, how to learn a new skill, etc. One thing I often do is to talk about my goals to my family and friends. The more you talk about your goals, the more you’re inspired and the closer you get. It’s also important to surround yourself with people who’ll support you and your goals.
Ø Always remember you are worth it and you deserve it!
Ø Probably the most important aspect is not to cling to the outcome. Remember it’ll be materialized only if your goal is aligned with your life plan and if it’s for your utmost good. Please trust the Divine order.

Five Element Reiki
I’ve had the privilege to host and witness a Five Element Reiki class last month. It was an awesome class! Now I need someone to partner up with me to take the class (I couldn’t commit to take the class last month due to uncertainties in my schedule, but now I will be able to, yay!). Bruce Davis, our friend from Cincinnati Reiki community and a seasoned Reiki Master in Traditional Japanese Reiki is teaching this course to share his accumulated healing experience over the years. Bruce uses Five Elements theory (Water, Wood, Fire, Earth and Metal) to explain the elemental nature of the body’s life energy and how energy pathways (meridians) are associated with each element and how Five Element theory impacts a healing session. Please send me an e-mail, if you’d like to partner up with me or if you need more information.
