Reiki Shoden, Attunement, Reconnections

We approach Reiki Shoden attunement as we might approach a new crop circle, with preparation, eagerness and curiosity. Crop circles are mostly of unknown origin, there are many theories, many claims of ownership or creation, and yet we are still not fully consciously aware of the nature of this phenomena. 

We are aware of the energy involved in the creation of such symbols, and perhaps one or more of these 'circles' may resonate with our being.  The symbols may be part of our own language of light that we are re-learning as we re-connect to All That Is, the Universal Energy of Reiki; & Love.

A visit to a crop circle can be an interesting and exciting experience, whilst also being somewhat disconcerting, uncomfortable and scary as it is outside of our own experience. 

A Reiki Attunement 

Copyright Steve Alexander - Halpen Hill July 2016

Every person reacts differently to a Reiki Attunement, and each attunement can elicit a different reaction from the recipient. Some people experience a strangeness that manifests as strong emotions and a temporary acceleration of any health symptoms is also possible. This period of strangeness, symptoms and signs is known as a 'healing crisis'; something that is a usual occurrence when one is shifting one's reality, moving forward into a new way of being - and you might really call this also a detoxification process. Your physical body, and spiritual, mental and emotional body are allowing all that blocks your growth and ability to evolve, to rise to the surface to be recognized, accepted, released and cleansed.

So all those patterns of behaviour created in childhood as a self defence mechanism, or as a way of dealing with overwhelming energy, will be rising to the surface to be examined, and released. It can be a scary time as we move forward into the unknown.  This is a process that happens not only at this time, but throughout our life. However, at a time of attunement, this symptoms are more intense and apparent, as the cleansing and clearing process accelerated, and the symptoms appear, the toxins are released in a shorter more intense period of growth and re-alignment.

This is a temporary situation, and the intensity of this detoxification generally lasts no longer than 21 days. The cleansing and clearing process will continue, but not at such great intensity. The symptoms can be mild, moderate or severe;  and perhaps also one can consider them to manifest on the physical, or emotional levels. 

The following symptoms may arise:

Strong emotions such as fear, fury, worry, irritability, sadness, grief, 

Mood swings

Development of certain phobias

Fever, cold or flu

Nausea, ht://www.cropcircleconnecom/20

Fatigue, Restlessness

Pains - joints or muscular pain

Hypertension

Insomnia

The symptoms arise because the Reiki Attunement will stimulate your immune system to start a healing process. 

It is very rare that such symptoms would transform into any serious condition as usually they subside as you continue to practice Self-Reiki. 

However, it is important that the person undergoing a Reiki Attunement, consult with the Reiki Teacher/Master of any symptoms that arise, and keep the Teacher informed if any unusual or severe reaction appears. The Teacher can then help the recipient heal and work with the energies. 

How to ease or manage the symptoms

The best form of management is the increase in intake of fluids especially water. Those who have done the classes thus far are aware of how much water, and fruit is imbibed, so it is important that following the attunment, plenty of water and fresh fruit is available as soon as the session is completed. The water intake will help flush the toxins & other waste products out of the body, and speed up the cleansing process. The fresh fruit will help replace some energy. 

Other ways to manage or ease the process are to modify your diet and avoid processed foods. There is no one single diet that will resonate with all, so it will be up you to connect with your intuition and dowse what foods will resonate with you as you cleanse and release. 

There are specific meditation which will help alleviate mental and emotional stress, both mindful breath meditation, and visualization. 

It is important that you express your emotions in a healthy way, and do not repress even for  moment, but rather express in each moment, so there is no bottleneck, nor explosions.

Avoid negative thoughts and situations.

To be blunt, sometimes a good bowel movement will relieve symptoms too; and sometimes an enema or colonic irrigation will help should that be a path you choose.

Treat yourself gently; Take rest if you feel fatigue; In fact, get plenty of rest... no late nights, but lots of sleep. Remember frequently following an attunement, your Guides will have 'night school' during your dream-time.

Spend some period of time in nature, quiet, and peace.

It is important that you realize that the symptoms that manifest after a Reiki Attunement, are different from the symptoms that may appear as a side effect of medication. Appearance of the symptoms does not call for termination of the attunement, the symptoms put you on notice that you are in the initiation of the healing process. A shamanic initiation will produce similar symptoms, as will a spontaneous kundalini initiation.

The attunement is part of an initiation process. You should be ready and willing to move forward on your spiritual path, and  your healing journey. If you have serious doubts, then this is not the time to come forward for attunement. 

Remember if any symptoms appear that would normally make you call a doctor, then you must call a doctor. Be safe and well, and use your common sense.

 

 

Shoden - Reiki I Attunement

Today we step over the threshold. Those who have attended from the first week will receive attunement this week and begin to accelerate their spiritual growth as the Reiki integrates into their system. Those who have been coming only for a week or so, will receive their attunements in 3 weeks. 

We will be working with Meditation as this is where Reiki is Rooted. Any inner power comes to fruition through meditation, so if your healing is a faint flame at the beginning, Reiki's meditations will feed the flames into a mighty fire.

As a Reiki practitioner, you will continue the Reiki practices that will bring Peace of Mind, heart centred peace, and peace that flows through your life. The Mental, emotional and spiritual healing of Reiki practice and energy will bring it's own clarity and peace.- simply allowing and aiding you to flow with the energies of the moment as your spiritual development continues. 


We will explore the traditional hand positions for self-healing, which is the path for the first few weeks, Later we will talk about the hand positions, and non traditional aspects of healing of others. As the weeks progress we will be doing Reiki Share and discovering the new experiences both spiritual and physical and emotional that come with practicing Reiki.

Spiritual healing is important as all other levels are simply an expression of our spiritual self/soul.

There are 2 classes. One at 2pm; & 7:30pm.
In The Old Storeroom at The Bank, Eye.
£7 per class.

THE HEALING POWER OF LOVE IS INFINITE

http://globalforceforhealing.org/


You are not a human being in search of a spiritual experience. You are a spiritual being immersed in a human experience. - these words were written by Pierre Tielhard de Chardin

He was a french philosopher and a Jesuit Priest who was born in 1881 in France, and died in 1955 in New York, USA.

He trained as a paleontologist and worked on the discovery of the Peking Man.

However he also wrote the following which resonates with the group as a nod toward the power of Love in the work of Earth Healing.

• “The day will come when, after harnessing space, the winds, the tides, and gravitation, we shall harness for God the energies of love. And on that day, for the second time in the history of the world, we shall have discovered fire.”
  

  ("The Evolution of Chastity," in Toward the Future, 1936, XI, 86-87)

   The Website at the top uses the above quote with the link to the importance of Love as an energy when working toward healing. 

  Yet before we begin healing our planet we need to allow the energy of LOVE to flow through our beings and bring the power of LOVE healing to ourselves first and foremost. There is an old saying that one must fill our own vessel first before we give to others. 

  Simple Mindful Meditation allows us to connect to the inner core self and disengage from the noise, endless whirlwind of thoughts and ideas, and connect to the still space of 'no thought' within as we connect to the LOVE energy that we allow to flow through our being.

Dealing with Difficult People

http://www.ramdass.org/a-heavy-curriculum/

The Above is the link to some writing by Ram Dass on how we can change perspective on dealing with those difficult people in our lives.

Transformation

If somebody is a problem for you, it’s not that they should change, it’s that you need to change. If they’re a problem for themselves that’s their karma, if they’re causing you trouble that’s your problem on yourself. 

So, in other words when Christ is crucified, he says “forgive them, they don’t know what they’re doing”, they’re not a problem for him, he’s trying to get them out of being a problem for themselves, because he’s clear. 

Your job is to clear yourself. In ideal situations you would clear yourself within the situation, but very often it’s too thick and you can’t do that.

Now, what you do then is you pull back and you do the stuff you do in the morning or at night before you go to work, you do the stuff on weekends, you do the stuff that quiets you down and then each time you go into the situation to where you have to work, you lose it again. 

And then you go home and you see how you lost it, and you examine it, and then you go the next day and you lose it again, and you go home and you keep a little diary “how did I lose it today”, and you saw that, and then you go and you do it again, and after a while as you’re starting to lose it you don’t buy in so much. 

You start to watch the mechanics of what it is that makes you lose it all the time.

If I’m not appreciated, that’s your problem that you don’t appreciate me. 

Unless I need your love, then it’s my problem. So my needs are what are giving you the power over me. 

Those people’s power over you to take you out of your equanimity and love and consciousness has to do with your own attachments and clingings of mind. That’s your work on yourself, that’s where you need to meditate more, it’s where you need to reflect more, it’s where you need a deeper philosophical framework, it’s where you need to cultivate the witness more, it’s where you need to work on practicing opening your heart more in circumstances that aren’t optimum. 

This is your work. 

You were given a heavy curriculum, that’s it. 

There’s no blame, it’s not even wrong, it’s just what you’re given. You hear what I’m saying? It’s interesting. Can you all hear that one?

-Ram Dass, Summer 1989
