Reiki and Chakras

 

We are all natural conduits for Universal life force energy. As human beings, our first instinctive reaction is to reach out and touch another in a loving manner. Touch is a healing modality that comes naturally. Without touch an infant will die, that is how important life force energy is to humans. Hugs and hand holding could be called Reiki. When someone you love is ill, the first reaction is to touch them in a loving way or if they have lost a loved one, you may spontaneously hold them in your arms and send them love. Our pets are perfect examples; we tend to stroke their fur and give them healing touch while they sit beside us and visa versa. These physical acts are all instinctive and exhibited daily in our every day lives. When we disconnect with others we lose this natural healing ability. Healing touch, Reiki, Therapeutic Touch and hands on healing come naturally when we are connected to others and our hearts are open.

 

How do we use this life force energy effectively?

 

1.      We are open to receiving love from ourselves and others~ 4th chakra

2.      We trust the universe and are open to its healing powers~ 2nd chakra

3.      Our intentions are to be healed or to heal another~ 7th chakra

4.      We are free to be ourselves and true to our own personal expression~ 5th chakra

5.      We can imagine this “Universal life force energy” moving through us~ 6th chakra

6.      We maintain our connection to mother earth and our grounded 1st chakra

7.      We act on our intuition and reach out and touch somebody 3rd chakra

 

We can allow life to flow through us or we can choose to block it. The less life force flows through us, the less life we experience. Resistance to this flow, equals blocks in our energetic systems called chakras. The universal life force enters the crown of our heads and flows through our spine, into our hearts and out our hands. When performing Reiki, if our hearts are blocked it is very difficult for this energy to flow through freely. Reiki is love, pure and unconditional. There is enough to go around; the universe has an abundance of this pure energy called love.

 

Using our crown chakra we open ourselves up to receiving this Universal life force energy, we envision the powerful symbols of the masters and focus on their energy by using our sixth chakra. The sixth chakra (third eye) is not used to “think”, it is there to be fully open to the mindfulness of the moment. The throat chakra is the vehicle that the universe uses to create the miraculous visions of healing, color and vibration. With this creative force behind the vision and intentions of love this energy flows through the open channel of our hearts. Our hands are an extension of the heart chakra. Our connection to the sky energies is just as important as earth energies, for our own inner balance and stability.

 

The perfect session with yourself or others flows when you are open at the crown chakra with total equanimity. Focus on nothing but the intention of love and healing, the rest is up to this life force energy. You know it is perfect when you have not asked the question “is this perfect?” Your mission is to stay mindful and allow this energy to flow through you, opening your-self up to this creative energy, flowing through your head, heart and hands. Being grounded allows you to also receive this powerful energy for yourself. I call it a give-give situation. If you feel drained or you have the feeling that you have done the healing, you have not been using this life force energy to its fullest potential. Let it go and let it flow!  Remember to focus on love, open your heart and keep your feet on the ground.

 

Are you asking these questions during a Reiki session?

 

  1. Am I doing it right? Questioning the right or wrong of Reiki, is like asking God (Good) if it is God. It just is…  “Not my will, but thy will be done”
  2. How will I know if it worked? It just does…the less you think of the outcome, the more you are connected to this powerful life force energy. There is only one expectation in Reiki and that is to send love.
  3. Why do I feel drained? The more you allow Reiki to be, the more energy you have after a session. Relax and allow energy to flow through you.
  4. Why? Why? Why? I f you are asking why or are fixated on an outcome during a Reiki session, remember to focus on love. The less you do, think or let your ego take control, the more the life force energy flows through. You are a conduit for spirit.

 

How you can maintain flow through your chakra system:

 

  1. Get outside daily and feel a connection to your “Mother” Earth
  2. Be a part of a group and feel your connection to others, volunteer.
  3. Do something physical daily, walk, run, stretch and breathe deeply.
  4. Do something for yourself and another, open a door for a stranger.
  5. Express yourself, be creative…have a hobby.
  6. Imagine a bright future and remember to dream.
  7. Focus on what you want to manifest in your life, learn how to pray.

 

Last night I had a dream...I woke up heartbroken. The dream starts with a young man with fatigues on who is packing to go away. His wife is watching, she asks where it is that he will be going. He gives her a look and says "Iraq." I feel as if I am the woman in the dream but she looks nothing like me. He says he will be patrolling on the ground as a foot soldier. They both want to talk about death but don't know what to say...he tells her “The others are at the bars in town." He is spending his last night with his wife. She looks at him and says "I can break your arm" and she means it! He says "It won’t do any good I would still have to go...arms heal." The lights go out and he lies next to her fully clothed in uniform. He lies his head on her chest, so much they want to say and so little they can talk about without breaking down and crying. She wants to be strong; she kisses his forehead and tells him when he is there that he has to keep his focus. She tells him to imagine chocolate ice cream with chocolate fudge, how it tastes and feels. He says he can see it and she says to go to that place in his head and focus only on home, coming home. Soldiers that return home safely are guided by intuition and gut feelings. "Focus on coming home" she says.

 

I wake up with my heart hurting...it felt real. I felt like I had walked in someone else's shoes...I couldn't fall back to sleep with this pain in my heart, knowing that this was happening to two people I don't know, right now! It was only a dream but it made me realize how life hands us situations that challenge our chakra systems. If we lose our energetic flow, we lose parts of ourselves in the process. Maintaining open chakras enables us to live a life of ease rather than dis-ease. How can we keep our chakras open? Easy, chakra prescriptions! The soldier needs to write down what he would like to say to his wife in a letter and she needs to do the same, a heartfelt letter. They may keep the letter to give later on but at least they have gotten their emotions off their chests (heart chakra). Our expression is in the throat chakra…if he is not allowed to communicate what he his feeling he will stop the flow into the upper chakras. He will lose his focus, vision and connectedness to the universe. How many stories have you heard about soldiers having “ah ha” moments that saved their life or someone else’s? Focusing on what they want will bring them home safely!

 

 

Chakra Prescriptions

 

 

7. Intentions: Pray, ask for what you want, be thankful for what you already have, meditate, write down your intentions and be still.

 

6. Vision: Focus on what you want, daydream, visualize a positive future, paint a picture in your mind of the world you want to live in and listen to your dreams.

 

5. Expression: Sing, write, draw, keep a journal, take an art class and talk to someone you trust.

 

4. Self Love/Connection: Take time with yourself and do the things that you love. Open your heart to another, learn Reiki and talk about how you feel.

 

3. Will Power: Exercise, laugh often, cry when you feel like it and breathe deeply.

 

2. Supportive Relationships: Surround yourself with trustworthy people, volunteer, dance, stretch and be close to water.

 

1. Manifestation of Intentions: Get outside, plant a tree, hike, get a massage and plant a garden.

 

 

 

One of each color a day will keep the doctors away!

We wonder why we have blocks in our chakra systems...sometimes it is the only way to survive!!!
