What Energy Healing Can Do For You Today!

You may consider receiving an energy healing session if you want to focus on healing or improving any emotional, mental or physical issue that is surfacing in your life right now.   The session itself typically lasts about 30-60 minutes depending on what your specific needs are.  You remain fully dressed as you lay down on a comfortable massage table in a dimly lit room with soft relaxing music playing.  Your practitioner (that’s me) begins to connect with you energetically and assess the areas in your body and energy field that need attention.  This is accomplished through a process called body scanning as well as tapping into any intuitive guidance that may be received to determine how the session will unfold. All you need to do is relax, unwind and let the soft vibrations bring you peace and balance.  You may feel some light tingling or heat as the energy moves through your energy field and begins to shift you back into alignment by balancing and unblocking any areas of “stuck” energy.  Stuck or blocked energy can be the result of various issues including,  but not limited to, unprocessed emotions, conflicts and past traumas.  These events that occurred in our life that have not yet been processed, store in our physical bodies and in our cellular memory.   It is only through the processing of these emotions either consciously, sub-consciously or energetically that we can release the destructive patterns and be free of their impact.

There are many other benefits to an energy healing session and the list goes on and on, but to name a few:

• Reduced stress and sense of peace
• Better sleep
• Feeling lighter and more energetic
• Experience contentment and feeling of wholeness
• Feel more connected to self and others
• Relief from physical aches and pains
• More positive outlook on life

There really is no area that energy healing cannot address and bring some relief.  It is a wonderful supplement to any other treatment you may be receiving and is used in many hospitals and care facilities all over the world.

Over the next few days following your treatment, you may experience an emotional detox, a processing of sorts where you will release whatever you were holding on to that was not serving your highest good.  You will be asked to drink a lot of water to flush out any toxins that have been released.  Subsequent sessions are recommended to continue to see long term results.  If you are interested in experiencing a sample energy session, I will be offering FREE 20 minute sessions throughout the month of January (Richardson, TX or Garland, TX).  Sessions can also be held over the phone or Skype for a remote experience.  Email me to schedule an appointment:  Jennifer@myheartreiki.com

NAVIGATING YOUR OWN GPS

NAVIGATING YOUR OWN GPS SYSTEM

The practice of listening to your own inner wisdom is an extremely important lesson for all of us to understand and implement in a daily practice.  I have been nudged to write about this topic for over a year now but decided to ignore those inner voices. I finally got in touch and listened to my higher self which propelled me to move forward, and this is what I am excited to share here…how to get in touch with that part of ourselves that is our inner wisdom and the essence of our soul.

We all have this voice inside of us; call it intuition, inner knowing, insight or a gut feeling.  This is our own internal guidance system, our own GPS that will NEVER steer us wrong, as long as we take time to listen, check in and keep our ego (fear based thoughts) out of the way.  When we go within, we empower ourselves and connect with our deepest desires. We open up our potential and we align with our purpose.

So what can we do to pay attention and listen to our truth?  I’ll list here a couple of ideas to get started and let your inner wisdom guide you.

1.       Still the mind and go within.  One of the reasons we can easily overlook our inner guidance is we are constantly moving, doing and going, which can be a distraction from listening within.  It is not possible to hear the messages if we’re moving a 100 miles an hour.  It is extremely beneficial to connect and check in with ourselves to hear the subtle messages that will guide us seamlessly through life if we listen.  Try a meditation class or a guided mediation if you need help learning to quiet the mind and connect.

2.       Awareness about how we process our decisions in life.  Think about all the decisions we make in our lives, both big and small.  It could be as minor as what shirt to wear or what to eat for breakfast.  Even these small decisions can be guided by your higher self and can bring more joy to your day.  Your body knows what it wants to feel nourished, and you know what color to wear to feel your best.

3.       Trust and take action.  It’s when we second guess ourselves and spend too much time in our left brain over analyzing and debating, that we question ourselves and move in directions that are not true to our hearts. When we take guided action, we strengthen our connection to ourselves and build trust in the messages we receive.

4.       Focus and listen to what your heart wants and ask the question, “What do I really want”?  Try an experiment:  For one day, every move you make, every thought you think, ask yourself, “What do I really want?"  What choice do I have here that will make me FEEL GOOD?”  Go the direction of what will make you feel good and see where your day takes you.  Honor every thought that guides you. It may be to call an old friend, take a nap, write in a journal, take a walk, start a book, take the day off of work, take a road trip, have a bath, meditate, make amends, speak your truth, or start something new.  Don’t question yourself, just follow your own intuition for just one day, and find out what new experiences you’ll create for yourself.

When we take the time to practice listening, to access this knowledge and then to trust its wisdom, we can then begin walking in alignment with our divine life purpose. It’s when we pay attention to ourselves, our inner truth, and follow that guidance that we can find peace and fulfillment, because we are honoring our true nature.

 

MAKING THE HOLIDAYS COUNT!

The impending holidays can be a catalyst for emotions that have not been resolved to bubble to the surface.  Instead of reacting and letting these feelings bring you down, you can choose to view this experience as an opportunity to heal anything from the past that is unresolved.  Perhaps you are still holding anger towards your mother or resentment towards your father because of long ago events that were never healed.  Perhaps, the nostalgia of the holidays brings up areas of contrast where you are comparing your current situation to those of the past. Either way, it is important for you to recognize that when these emotions are present to not stuff them back down again.  By acknowledging and honoring how you feel, it gives you a chance to begin the healing process.  Maybe just having awareness of the origin of these feelings is all it takes to move through.  Maybe you need to have a conversation with a loved one to clear the air.  Maybe you just need to forgive yourself and all others involved.  Forgiveness is not forgiving the act of what you perceive someone did to you, but forgiving the person.  Forgiveness will set you free because it’s not about letting the other person “off the hook” as much as it is about doing it for yourself to get well and move forward.

You can chose to be present with the feelings that surface around this time of the year and for once decide to take action, or you can stay on that merry-go-round that perpetuates the same behavior year after year.  During the holidays, we tend to have a heightened sense about ourselves and how we relate to others and this presents an opportunity to heal, initiate change and re-write the rules.   Let go of old hurts, forgive yourself and others and process your feelings so you can find yourself in a place of neutrality and love.

Shifting Perspectives

Some days you just wake up and the world can seem a dismal place and you can feel like life is moving against you or like you're walking through water making little progress.  It's times like this where I pull out all the stops and take action to get myself back on track and shift my perspective to that which is alignment with myself and divine creator.  I make a conscious effort to raise my vibration and find that happy place again. 1. Step one - stop feeling sorry for myself and realize this is my ego surfacing trying to get my attention and surround me with fear.

2. Listen to a positive guided meditation to center myself to get back in touch with my true self.  Maybe take a hot sea salt bath to draw out toxic emotions.

3. Initiate shifting of perspective.  Acknowledge that these thoughts that have caused me distress and not real, but only a product of my ego (fear based thoughts).  If I choose to shift my perspective to that of higher consciousness and align with source, I can reach the place of peace and contentment that I know is the only "real" stuff anyway.

4. Get outside and commune with nature (I'll be heading to White Rock Lake later today).

5. Find some like-minded people to help lift me up or get some energy work done to rebalance my system.

My point is that you can take action and initiate a game plan to shift these feelings and elevate your emotions to higher perspectives.  As I'm writing this, I have now created my to do list for today!

Namaste,

Jennifer
