August '24 Reiki Spark

Welcome to your monthly Reiki Spark - a quick update to support the momentum of your energetic goals between sessions.
Sparks in CURIOSITY, INTENTION, INSPIRATION and WELLBEING are some of Reiki’s many gifts. Here are a couple August sparks just for you…

SEASONAL SHIFT
Remember when fall was in the air last week? I don’t know about you, but I started getting excited about sweaters. There was an interesting theme with our Reiki guests around that time… many of you came in saying “something feels off”. And once again, we’re reminded that our energy responds to seasonal shifts in funky ways. Can you recall how you felt during the transition from last spring into summer? Did anything feel off, slightly unbalanced, dysregulated?

After a very first Reiki session, people always ask, “How often should I come in?” My answer is always …
For something emergent, as often as you like.
For maintaining an intention, monthly.
And if it’s available to you, I recommend coming in every season!

Whether something feels “off” or you just want to proactively usher in fresh energy for the fall, this is your reminder to book your seasonal Reiki session now!

SIT DOWN FOR A WHILE
I have had the absolute pleasure of studying mindful facilitation within a cohort under the supervision of Erin Doerwald of Hello Wellness. I cherish my time with this group… leaning into vulnerability, creating safe spaces and ultimately planning how to facilitate groups myself. (More on that another time!) This week, someone in our group shared a quote that kind of stopped me in my tracks. I’ve been running around from project to project all summer feeling a bit overwhelmed and scattered. The quote goes:

The more you sense the rareness and value of your own life,
the more you realize that how you use it,
how you manifest it,
is all your responsibility.
We face such a big task,
so naturally such a person
sits down for a while.

-Kobun Chino Roshi

I wonder if taking time to sit down and reflect resonates with you too… feel free to let me know how you’re doing between the sessions.

Take care Energy Seekers and see you soon!
