Opening the Kundalini

Kundalini Yoga is known as the "yoga of awareness". Kundalini literally means "that which is coiled". This type of yoga awakens the sleeping kundalini energy at the base of the spine. Wikipedia describes Kundalini Yoga in this way, "It expands sensory sensitivity, enhances intuition, and merges individual consciousness with the infinite consciousness of God." It is a very powerful form of yoga. In this video, Rachael teaches how to recite the mantra Sat Nam meaning "Truth is my identity". I felt euphoric after this experience and it only took a few minutes...

Part 2 of Kundalini Yoga will be coming soon... Hope you enjoy!

Light

Reiki (known as Ki in Japan) is also known as "Light" energy. Barbara Marcinak in her book Bringers of the Dawn has defined it as "information". She has stated that human DNA, the carrier of "light" or information, was once twelve-stranded and now, it is only a double helix. Diane Stein in Essential Reiki states," Returning Reiki to as many on the planet as choose to open themselves and use it, is returning the twelve-stranded DNA and the Ki/Light/Information we have lost."

Our planet more than ever has a need for Reiki. It "awakens" the body and mind to a state of peace and acceptance of what once existed. Anciently, it was used as a tool for healing and has been recovered today as information that the body recognizes as truth and light.

Life Force Energy

Reiki is literally known as life force energy. This energy conveys warmth, peace, and serenity. This life force energy has many names in many different cultures. As Mary Coddington explains in her book, In Search of the Healing Energy, Polynesian Hunas call this healing force Mana, Native American Iroquois call it Orenda. In India , they call it Prana, China calls it Ch'i. Islamic countries call it Barraka. The Japanese call it Ki which is how Reiki is named.
Diane Stein in her book Essential Reiki explains that "Ch'i of Ki is also the life force of the Earth, the planets, the stars, and the heavens, and these sources of energy affect the living body's Ki. Everything alive contains Ki and radiates it- it is the biomagnetic energy of the aura." Reiki is a powerful healing modality that is very gentle. It is a hands-on-technique that helps to unblock congested energies in the body so the Ki or Chi flows more freely. This adds to greater health on all levels- spiritually, mentally, emotionally, and physically.

Clearing Limited Beliefs

As Carol Tuttle states in her book Remembering Wholeness, "Everyone carries limiting beliefs and patterns that they came to clear. In clearing these energies, we heal the lies that we thought were truths about ourselves. We thought that they were true because we kept having experiences that made us think, This keeps happening to me so it must be true! As you change your beliefs, you change your life, and understand now that you can create whatever you want."

We have found powerful healing modalities that can change limited beliefs and generational patterns. These include: Rapid Eye Technology, The Emotion Code, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), Reiki, Body Talk, Family Constellations, "The Script" as given by Karol Truman in Feelings Buried Alive Never Die. There are many more. Feel free to comment if you have another therapy that has helped you. We would love to hear. Thank you!

A Change of Heart

This picture was taken at the Japanese Gardens in Portland, Oregon. It is a very tranquil place that fills your soul with peace.

Karol Truman has created an amazing script on forgiveness. She is the author of two of our favorite books, Feelings Buried Alive Never Die and Healing Feelings from the Heart. You can energetically transform difficult relationships by using this script as a tool.

SAY: "Heart to heart...(name the person) It is wonderful to know you. (State the beautiful qualities of this person.) Thank you for showing up for me and teaching me (even if it is through a negative experience). I am so grateful for you in my life. Heart to heart, I behold you with eyes of love and glory in your perfection. If I have done or said anything that has offended you, will you forgive me?"

This allows a "change of heart" to take place. It is important not to judge yourself or others from past experiences. It does not define who you are or who they are. By releasing these emotions, the past is left behind. By being present, you are allowing the re-creation of yourself and your future every day.

The Energy of Food

All of the food that we eat holds a certain vibration and energy that will affect our vibration and energy. As Deepak Chopra states, "Food is indeed an important part of our health and our spiritual lives and good food can be the best medicine." Everything that is put into the human body holds an energy vibration-our thoughts, the food we eat, our emotions. I believe that food should be prepared with complete awareness of what is going into the body. When it is made with love and care that energy is also being absorbed into the body. Food should appeal to the senses- the color, the texture, the smell, the taste all affect the body. Conscious awareness of the foods we eat will result in a better you- a higher vibrational you!

Zen Gardens

This is a picture of a Zen Garden that my daughter made.... These gardens have been used by monks for centuries. Here they would contemplate the teachings of the Buddha. Here they would connect themselves to a deeper sense of knowing and mediation. (The word "Zen" is translated to mean "meditative"). In a classical Zen Garden, the sand represents the water and waves. It replicates the relaxing sound of water as it is being raked. The rocks placed in the sand represent the mountains or land. The concept of the Zen Garden reminds the self of the stillness within that has always existed and that will always exist. Being in a state of Zen, centers and balances the body-connecting the Earth element (masculine) with the Water element (feminine).Having a Zen Garden is a simplistic way to center and reorganize your energies. It is a simple stress reduction technique by raking the sand to replicate the sound of the waves. Being "zen" truly does bring one back to a meditative state....

Femininity

I looked out my window and saw pink these beautiful pink flowers in my garden! ...
They are beautiful and so feminine. It made me think about femininity and what is means. Wikipedia describes femininity as a set of attributes, behaviors and roles generally associated with girls and women. This "yin" energy has the ability to draw others in. A woman in her feminine power holds the true essence of beauty. Haven't you heard a man say, "I just couldn't take my eyes off of her". Feminine ideals are love, compassion, trust, and gentleness. I believe these attributes to be associated with the heart. When a woman is in touch with her femininity she is in touch with her sacral chakra which holds the sexual dynamics (sex appeal). When the heart chakra and sacral sacral chakra are working together, the result is a beautiful soft blend of feminine power. This energy is very magnetic and powerful, yet it holds a soft classical rhythm.
