A New Chapter

Tonight, I move forward in my Reiki journey as I open my home to a Reiki sharing and healing circle. I had been attending another Reiki group, when four months ago there was sudden and unexpected separation. Having this weekly giving and receiving of Reiki suddenly ripped away from me presented a very difficult period for me to navigate. As I pondered this situation in my life, the idea of leading my own group continued to infiltrate my thoughts. I started to think, why not? After all my ultimate goal is to mentor and teach. But ~ where do I begin, how do I attract like minded individuals, do I advertise, do I glean from my clients? These were all questions whizzing around in my mind.

What I didn't realize was that all I had to do was release my intentions to the universe.

It amazes me ~ there are no coincidences. When you lose something you value  ~ a relationship, a job, something you considered vital and integral to your life, you will suddenly realize something new that has been provided to fill the gap. And it not only fills the gap, but fulfills so much more than what you anticipated. And so it has come to be with my Reiki group. When my first group was removed from my life, I felt tremendous loss, almost a sense of grief. Last week a level II Reiki called me for a healing session. As we talked and shared, her interest was piqued to attend a possible Reiki circle in my home. As well a couple of weeks ago, I met another level II Reiki with whom I spiritually connected instantly. She too is very interested in attending. Now I look forward to having this circle with not one but three amazing individuals where we can share our love of Reiki weekly.

How blessed I am ~

These are the types of blessings that are given to us when we open to the power of intention. Spirit knows what we need, anticipates what we might need and provides when we need it.

The other day I was given a beautiful analogy on all that the universe has to offer being within our grasp. Think for a moment of the old game Kerplunk many of us played as children. All the marbles were loaded on top of a network of sticks which firmly held them in place. Imagine if you will, that network of sticks are all the negative thoughts and obstacles that you place in the way of receiving your marbles or desires. Changing your mindset to one of positive intentions will allow your vibrational energy to rise opening you to what was previously held back by your negative thoughts and obstacles. Then your marbles will come tumbling into your life fulfilling your dreams and desires.

Be realistic and expect miracles ...

Surrender your desires and wishes to Spirit, completely forgive yourself and others, accept that everything is as it should be, then release your intentions and believe that what you put out to the universe will come back to you. Believe me what will come back to you will be more than you can imagine.
