Toxic Thoughts?

We all think about Japan these days. We pray for them, we send Reiki to them in hope that it will help the people and nature that were struck with the disaster.
But do we stop and consider what are our thoughts when we think of the Japenese people? A lot of the time our first responses when we hear of natural disasters are fear, sadness for the people in trouble and thinking about their pain and loss. We never think about the possibility that these kinds of thoughts can hurt those people even more. Those thoughts are toxic. They have low vibration and they bring down the energy field of those who are already suffering.
I am not saying that we shouldn't feel sad and compassionate;  I am saying that we should become more aware of our thoughts and change the energy behind those that would drag others down.
All we want is to help them, to lift them up and our thoughts can do that.
For example, when I think about the suffering people in Japan I think of them as strong survivors who are going to heal and thrive. When I think this way I send them positive energy and I lift the vibration of their energy field. The higher vibration of the energy field the faster the healing occurs.
So lets stop for a second and think about our learned thought patterns and if they don't serve us and others - change them. This way you make a big difference for all of us.

Distance Healing

One thing I love about Reiki is that you don't have to be in the same room, country or continent with your patient. You don't even have to know what that person looks like. All you need is their name and if possible the area that they would like you to work on.
Still you get the same results as if you were laying on my Reiki table. Fabulous!
During the distant healing session as I work with my patient my hands tell me where they want to go addressing the areas that are in need of extra energy and healing. Some areas need more time and some less depending on how depleted they are.
It is amazing that the sensations in my hands are the same as when doing in person treatment.
When I do distant healing, I like to do it late at night just to make sure that the patient is relaxed and opened to the healing energy. But it can be done whenever they have an hour or so to lay down and relax. 
For me as a practitioner it is very valuable. I can reach out to many people in need this way. I can reach out to animals and plants in need of healing and it gives me satisfaction to know that I am serving the greater good.

Healing Children with Reiki

As a mother of two active boys, I hear a lot of: "Mommy, I hurt my head. Reiki me." or "Mommy my tummy hurts. Can you Reiki me?"
Healing children is more active then working with adults. Even when they are hurt they move their body. The easiest way to treat them is surrendering to them and following them around the house. A follow up with distant Reiki session is a must. The follow up can last a longer or shorter time depending on the child's need.
There are times when they just relax and fall asleep then I can immerse them in the Reiki light.
The impact of Reiki can be very profound and immediately visible. Sometimes it takes only a half hour to shift baby's energy field in the desired direction and sometimes it takes much longer. We are all different.

Children's sensitivity to the energies are superior to those of an adult. They still feel and see the connection between our bodies and light.   
I strongly recommend Reiki for children. They enjoy it, it's not scary like going to the doctor's office and the best of all there are no bad side effects to it.
Of course visit to the doctor can be necessary and Reiki has it place as a support too.
Teething doesn't have to be so painful; sleepless nights don't have to be an everyday reality....Reiki can help...
