I’ve gathered excerpts from numerous books I’ve read, and the authors’ wisdom and knowledge have provided me with life guidance and direction, which I am now passing on to you.
Find your own path
Move away from what no longer serves you. Move towards what you believe to be your wholeness. If your intentions are pure, if each step you take is done through unconditional love, with no harm coming to anyone, your journey will be one of authenticity and truth. You need to find your own way, walk your own path and travel your own journey.
Release your thoughts into the air. Free your emotions along with the wind. Look with your heart and not with your head. Feel with your soul and not with your mind. Learn to enjoy the person you really are, learn to love yourself, without needing another person’s permission or approval. The only approval we ever need, is that of self-approval, learning to love and accept yourself.
Trusting yourself and loving yourself with no judgement, takes you closer to not judging others. You accept your uniqueness and see theirs, without judgement. By accepting the true you, and not being negatively influenced by the opinion of others, you will be successful with your endeavours.
Stress
Regarding stress, you are the only person in charge of choosing how to deal with it. You could choose to step back and observe as if watching a movie, and you could create a different ending, a positive one. Change how you see it and as you start sending a different energy into the situation, the situation changes.
In every moment, there is a choice – do we choose to be positive or negative, happy or sad? The first positive thought will lead to the next, and the possible outcome of peace and harmony, love and compassion. The first negative thought will lead to the next, and the possible outcome of indecision and fear, sadness and anger. Each present moment allows the opportunity for a positive thought – the choice is in every moment.
Each moment presents the opportunity to make a choice – either stick to the same old patterns to which you are accustomed, or to be brave and take a new path. Cast out and replace patterns that are no longer working for you, with new ones that focus on trust and goodwill. Keeping your thoughts upbeat and positive, will help you create a happier tomorrow.
Angels
The word angel means ‘messenger’.
If your heart could talk, it would speak to you forever about angels. It would long for you to let your angels guide you. It would urge you to see, hear and feel your angels, because in every heartbeat, they are speaking to you loud and clear. It would love you to know that once you start listening to your angels, there’s absolutely no going back. Your life can never feel or be the same again.
When you start wondering if there is more, or you question the purpose of life, it is because angels are calling you. Always ask questions and listen to your intuition. Curiosity and the willingness to learn, is what gives your life direction. By being curious and open, you will notice the angels and you will learn how to decode the messages that they are constantly sending.
The aim of the angels is to lead you away from material things or basing your self-worth on externals. You are not defined by material objects. Your consciousness, your spirit, the loving part of you that is timeless and perfect, is what defines you.
In order to connect with the angels, we must learn to trust and turn away from our fears. Without self-love and the ability to think for yourself, angels struggle to find a lasting home in your heart and in your life.
Be aware of every action you take and word you speak
You take your spirit with you to the other side and you will feel everything you have made others feel on earth. So, a wrongdoer will not find peace on the other side until they truly feel and understand the impact of their actions. In essence, in every moment of your life, you are creating the quality of the afterlife you will experience. Ask yourself each time you say or do something, is it something you would want to witness on the other side in a life review? Is it something your guardian angel would approve of.
Your body is the temple for your soul. Treat it with the reverence and respect it deserves.
People treat you as they treat themselves. Don’t take it personally. An angry response means you are investing your energy in others.
We must be able to give love to ourselves, in order to let love in. Try and see the inner child in everyone. The universe treats you as you treat yourself.
When you are kind, feel-good hormones are released, so the kinder you are, the better you feel and look. Being kind reduces the free-radical damage that ages you. Being a kind and compassionate person is the key to a beautiful life.
Healing is the New High
Inner healing is the act of letting go of past conditioning, creating a new and empowering belief system and embracing the unknowns of the future, with confidence and the belief that we are strong and capable – no matter what comes our way.
Trauma distorts and intensifies every negative thought, feeling and physical sensation we experience. Trauma makes us overly sensitive, hypervigilant and prone to emotional pain. It is so encompassing and our attention is focused on the pain and on desperately trying to avoid it.
When we carry our trauma with us, it is almost impossible not to share it – even if we try to hide it and pretend that it is not there. Because the hiding, the suppression, is in itself an expression of trauma that can be felt by other people.
Taking charge of your inner healing is one of the greatest acts of self-love. By committing yourself to the healing process, you are already lifting your vibration and creating space to welcome more joyful experiences. You can’t change your past, but you can choose to make your future a good place – it is your responsibility to embark on your healing journey.
If you are striving to improve yourself in a way that someone else thinks you should, or in a way that you think someone else thinks you should – then you are making yourself less important than they are.
Trauma tells us to avoid being hurt at all costs. When trauma takes the lead in our emotional state and decision-making processes, it blocks our natural intuition. Trauma feeds the fearful, wounded aspect of the ego and drives us to make decisions based on that pain. In contrast, when intuition guides our decisions and communication, we act from a place of love and steadiness.
Setting healthy boundaries is a way of keeping people in your life without upsetting your inner peace. Setting boundaries is loving and appreciating yourself.
Blaming your past for a limiting mindset doesn’t fix it. You have to seek new ways of thinking and being and then you have to practice those new ways until they become more real to you than your old way of thinking and believing.
People who try and put others down, reveal a lot about their own character and perception of the world. Those who want to hurt the outside world, have hurt in their inner world. You can only give what you have.
I would like to end with these wise and comforting words – However negative you might feel now, ‘this too shall pass’.
My Holistic Reiki session allows for and encourages you to discuss all aspects of your life that are causing you concern. Reasons why we take wrong turns and solutions to our current situations, are discussed and explained.
