One of the things I enjoy about hanging around with people for whom English is a second (or third) language, is how creatively they string together familiar words.

For example, my Argentine friend informed me on a recent sun splashed winter day, that she would be outside, “drinking the sun” ☀️

Typically, she corrects my Spanish, and I adjust her English.

But I simply smiled, and decided to adopt this phrase.

So this morning, before teaching Reiki, I settled quietly to drink in some sun. ☀️

In the warmth of the moment
something released from the back of my heart.

I think it was grief.

(Which is, of course, part of the cycle of change. And change is one of life’s constants. And it feels accelerated at this moment. Chapters close, chapters open, and in that inflection point, grief rumbles through, reminding the heart of what it has loved.

For me, what transmutes grief, without diminishing its truth, is how grateful I feel.

So I reached out to tell a friend what she means in my life - all those funny memories at my Michigan house which is now up for sale, and then I went back to drink in the sun, and imagine what comes next. 🌞)

It's summertime, and the living is easy 🎶 (right? )

Long, lazy, hazy days at the beach...

🙄

Not exactly... 🏃🏻‍♀️ 🏃🏻‍♀️ 🏃🏻‍♀️



Sometimes what we crave is that holiday where we escape from our daily responsibilities ... pamper ourselves... and rest.



That's how my client showed up!

Worn out ~

from holding up everyone else this summer.

Rest was on her "to do" list (🙄 😂)

But it wasn't happening.



Don't get me wrong, so much of what was taking her energy was "good stuff" - for her kids, for her clients.

And yet, she was maxed out ... and her body was starting to talk about it

(soon it would send her to bed if she did not willingly get some rest).



So she knew enough to reach out for some Reiki.

Some Reiki sessions can be designed to replenish you

so that

✨ your body feels like you have put down a weight (responsibilities and expectations are HEAVY)

✨ your energy feels at ease and present for that "good stuff" (not drained by it 😔)

✨ your spirit feels open to Joy again.



This is available.

And yet, some deep resistance in her pushed back.



Sensing this, we talked about something I hear and see far too often: good hearted people who pour their energy into others, showing up for their loved ones ... yet cannot receive what they so lovingly give.

And wear themselves out.



So the focus shifted to clearTHAT.



And the session went deep into this driving need she had that has pushed her to keep "busy" and "earn" all of the good stuff in life - too busy to hear her own intuition lighting up a different path.



Afterwards, she softly observed:

"I'm tired now, but it's a different tired. It's peace. It's the exhale you didn't know you were holding. It's the deep sigh of realising I don't have to rush anywhere."

☺️



If any of this sounds like your life, reach out for a session (details below)

And if you want the tool kit I used, show up for the Karuna Reiki® training 💫 (details below).

It has been a long week… (🙄)

so settling in for some Reiki was the best decision for this Saturday afternoon

and Emma agreed ☺️ 🐈

❤️ I could feel the energy down my heart meridians settle into smooth, open rhythms

(I am trained in Chinese Medicine, so I was specifically designing the session to nurture them)

bye bye Mercury retrograde 😌

If your mind, mood or energy has felt battered of late, I encourage you to book a session 💫

Zoom sessions are magic as you stay in the comfort of home (and your pets can join in 😁 this happens all the time 😂)

And if you are already a Reiki practitioner, you can advance your skills with Karuna Reiki® training in August! Details below.

BTW, I am sharing Karuna Reiki® training in August - which is a fast track to transforming compassion into action, and delivering the deep work that our world needs right now 💫

One person, holding steady amidst the fear, changes the collective 🌎❤️

(happily, that's actually science, not wishful thinking ☺️)

Join me; details below!

✍️ Recently, as moving boxes of family memorabilia has put me back in touch with letters from old friends, I smiled as I noticed this classic sign off at the base of a batch of letters:

“May you be happy, healthy, warm and well loved”

(growing up outside Chicago, being warm was a THING 🤣)

That phrase has always warmed my heart, so it’s unsurprising that it defines the work that I do.

Clients and students repeatedly report feeling HAPPIER with their lives - more relaxed and fulfilled.

(one student shared in our second class together that in the weeks since her first one, she had been in a state of “constant joy” 🤯)

And healthier in my world is a holistic experience -

😌 MENTALLY healthier - the peace that comes with clarity (so that you can make decisions rather than wasting hours, days, years, spinning them around in your head)

😌 EMOTIONALLY healthier - the ability to feel unruffled by the things that used to really amp you up feels like a superpower

😌 physically healthier - my clients SLEEP, and have way more energy because it’s not being drained away by STRESS.

WELL LOVED.

THAT feeling is magic. ✨❤️

I know when a client connects with this transformational state when their face softens, and their voice sounds both calm and tinged with wonder - because this state is LESS COMMON than it needs to be.

ALL of this is available to you.

(As for WARM, too many of my clients are already surfing the fluctuations of menopause … 🤣)

Maybe you, like so many people, invest in things that deliver a quick, but transitory boost to your daily well - being; I encourage you to invest in the lasting benefits of HEALING.

Knowing that when You feel happier, healthier, (the perfect temperature for you ☺️), and well loved, our world is a happier, healthier more loving place.

And we all need more of that ❤️🌎🙏

Perhaps you have noticed that seemingly small actions create big ripples.

Decluttering your work space...

Eating a nutritious lunch...

Checking in on a friend...

And suddenly, while aiming for a little better, you feel a lot better ☺️

As you awaken to this new day, gently reflect on areas of your life that are ripe for small upgrades.

🌟 what could you do today to make the world around you a little better?

{🦜 yesterday, en route to a late afternoon beach walk, my mood, which had a bit of the chill of the grey sky, was shaken by “pandemonium” as I startled a gathering of parrots. They resettled in this tree - bright green splashes of color against the grey sky, and made me smile and feel grateful to be here (holistically, not just in the moment).

I added this photo because it’s that energy you, too, can create - adding color, laughter, sociability to shake up any grey in your own life, or the lives of others ❤️💫}

Recently, I delivered a Reiki session that had the client feeling gobsmacked (for lack of a better word - sometimes Reiki experiences transcend everyday language 😊)

His immediate response was: I want to know how to do that! 💫

So we lined up Karuna Reiki® training!

And you are invited to join us,
and expand your Reiki tool kit with 8 sacred Symbols 💫 🧰

Interestingly, another Reiki student also reached out to access this advanced training, too - but their lives flow in different patterns.

So I have designed two training options, one in May, one in August!

Choose whichever one suits your life 😊 (payment plans are available)

🌟 Important note: these trainings are HEALINGS as I have specifically designed guided practice routines for each sacred Symbol so that you EXPERIENCE their specific purpose and power.

The framework I will lead you through for each Symbol can also be immediately applied to your client sessions. You will receive the templates.

This empowers you to put these tools to use quickly and with confidence.

And if you have yet to learn Reiki, or are simply feeling low in our overwhelming time, reach out to receive a session 💫

(I have yet to meet anyone who doesn’t hold onto something that is weighing them down. Spend some time with me, and we’ll lighten the load ✨)

🌟 It’s wonderful to start the day feeling like you’ve won the trifecta.

As I shuffled three inspiring cards quickly leapt from the deck and landed in my lap.

✨ Lead with Love - more of that, please.

✨ Wisdom in the Wound - take the learning, but release the pain.

✨ True Freedom - is found through healing what hurts you to feel peace in your heart.

Sharing in case these universal messages lift your energy, too.

🙈 I love this emoji because it captures perfectly that feeling of “yikes, that was embarrassing”

As does 🤦🏻‍♀️ 😬 🙀

For the past few days I have been guiding clients through healings around those past events that we try to hide because they still make us feel embarrassed.

(you know, that time when you _______
just fill it in!
we all have something we would love to erase)

Today we flipped the script to cast a light on something I see so often - too often, with my clients:

feeling embarrassed by a compliment.

Literally turning away from it,
and pushing the kind words - carrying all of that positive energy, out of your field.

🤦🏻‍♀️
Ever caught yourself doing that?

Think of the implications! This fear of feeling good about yourself.

Many of us have been taught to believe that "pride" in oneself is negative (it goeth before a fall! 😬).

In excess, it isn't desirable. But, healthy self esteem - acknowledged and nourished by a compliment, is important in assuring that you show up in your life. 🌟

I encourage you to reflect on events in your life when you deflected praise...
and play out in your mind what that held you back from experiencing...
from enjoying.

And bring that to a healing session. ❤️

And let yourself be transformed into someone who models relaxed confidence,
and let that fuel your life.

(our world needs good people to stop hiding… showing up small, does no good at all.)

And of course, as you flow through your day, share a compliment with someone - and encourage them to let it in, and watch the light rise within them ✨

One positive step to healing our world. 🙏
