Energy Clearing and Chakras

I know some of you have never heard of energy clearing at all, and some of you thought smudging was a makeup technique.  So I'll take the time to give you a bit of information about a service I provide.



ENERGY CLEARING

Due to having constant exposure to others, we encounter we automatically are also exposed to their individual energies whether they may be positive or negative energies.  We may be exposed to their flowing mother love everything is beautiful energy as well as the toxic emotions that cause irritability and even some illnesses.  No matter the type of energy you encounter you may also bring that energy into your home or whatever physical space you spend time.  I don't know about you but as an empath, I can barely cope with my own energy yet alone someone else's.  These energies can cause your space to feel stagnant.  Have you ever noticed that you seem to have arguments in the same areas of your home?  This is a clue that the energy needs clearing.

There can also be other reasons for needing to clear the energy in your space such as:  

Energy Vampires
They almost seem like normal, honest, good people but secretly that want nothing more than to have you join their misery.  Know the old saying misery loves company.  They are pros at attracting empaths who are loving, caring, and have optimistic attitudes for energy vampires to suck out of them.  So much so that they live you feeling drained, and stuck because they have sucked up all of your energy.

In-home Visitors
To keep your home sacred, it’s good to clear the energy in your home after having visitors or even after a party.  Doing this resets the energy flow of your home and erases all the energy that your guest may have left behind.  

THE PROCESS OF CLEARING 
Every space is different; therefore, techniques can be adjusted. However, my process of clearing spaces can consist of providing Reiki to each individual room in the home while also smudging with a variety of different sticks such as white or yerba santa sage, cedar, or juniper sticks, that may contain lavender.  (I plan on posting about the many differences sometime soon.) After clearing the space with sage.  I infuse the space with positive energy by utilizing palo santo, candles, incense, singing bowls, music, or crystals.  I do this all while praying or setting the intention you have for your home.  I do all of this after cleansing myself as well as all occupants of the home.  Once that process is done, I offer my gratitude and ask for the protection of the home.  

CHAKRAS


Within our physical body, we have a spiritual body that contains Chakras, which is the Sanskrit word for wheel or disc.  Each chakra represents a different energy center that holds life force energy that is responsible for each person's physical, mental, and spiritual functions.  These energy centers absorb and transmit energy to and from the universe nature, celestial entities, people, and tangible things like crystals. It is said that human beings have thousands of chakras located in hands and feet but the most significant ones are seven main chakras located along the central line of the body, from the base of the spine to the top of the head.

How do Chakras Affect Us?
The chakras are constantly rotating and vibrating.  The activities in them influence our body shape, glandular processes, physical ailments, thoughts, and behavior. When one (or more) of the chakra is blocked and the energy does not flow harmoniously through them, or it is wide open, it will result in imbalance that is manifested in all areas of life.

How do you Balance and Heal Chakras?

I do this by smudging my physical body with sage and palo santo, aromatherapy with essential oils, Reiki, color therapy, breathwork, exercise, meditation, crystal work, natural plants in the physical environment, clean eating, and clean living through functioning through my higher self as much as possible.  Also, drink plenty of water!  We are love and light consisting of a spectrum of colors, which is represented by our energy centers.  When you add water to light you see its beauty more, you recognize and handle shifts of energy easier, raising your vibration bringing you closer to balance and your higher divine self.


What Blocks Chakras?


Chakras naturally shift throughout our day as we encounter people and life and have lived experiences.  However, some things that cause chakra blockages are childhood traumas, limiting beliefs, adverse habits, physical and emotional traumas such as abuse, and lack of self-love to name a few. 


It is important to recognize the blocks we carry, find and understand their source and meaning, and develop tools to heal them or utilize the services I provide to aid you in empowering your journey to healing.

All about Reiki!

Here is Reiki 101!  In this blog post, I will provide answers to a variety of Reiki related questions including what it is, what it does for you, what is distance Reiki, what is crystal reiki, what is a Reiki box, sound healing, and aromatherapy.

Reiki brings creative flow.  If you find yourself repeating the same words, feelings, and phrases, or notice you are on autopilot.  That's your stuckness speaking.  Reiki provides the awareness that allows you to stop for a moment, regroup, connect with your creative energy, and reset yourself. By assessing your creativity you can always find a way to become unstuck.

Just like Reiki is a universal energy that already exists so is your creative self.  Your creative self is already here.  You don't need to do anything new to be your creative self.  Just tap into what already exists within you.  

What is Reiki?
Reiki (pronounced ray-key) is a form of energy work. This modality of healing was first developed in Tibet, but it did not become popular until a Japanese Buddhist, Mikao Usui, rediscovered the healing technique in the 20th century. The treatments are based on the belief that the human body has energy. Reiki combines the Japanese and Chinese word-characters of "rei" (spiritual) and "ki" (vital energy). The Reiki concept is that dis-ease is caused by imbalances of vital energy in the body and that correcting these imbalances promotes healing. Reiki promotes relaxation, restful sleep. energy balance, and assists with quick ailment recoveries; which in turn lowers a patient's stress response and encourages healing. When the body’s energy becomes blocked, pain and illness are the results. Reiki helps unblock the body’s energy to facilitate physical and emotional healing.

Is Reiki considered a religion?
Reiki has a spiritual element to it in the fact that it believes the universe is full of energy, and the human body is part of that ultimate life force. However, Reiki is not a religion. It can be practiced by believers of all faiths or of no faith, and it is beneficial to both believers and non-believers.

How does Reiki Work?
 The Reiki practitioner is a conduit for universal life force energy and Reiki is administered by a gentle hands-on healing technique that restores and balances energy promoting natural self-healing.  One of the basic teachings of healing with Reiki is that we are more than our physical bodies. We also have an energy body made up of our aura (energy fields), the chakras (energy centers), and the meridians (energy pathways.) Like our physical body that takes in food to nourish it and give it energy, our energy body does the same. The energy fields take energy in, the chakras break it down, and the meridians distribute it throughout the body.

Our body is comprised of energy vibrating at different speeds. Our physical body, our thoughts, emotions, and our spiritual center, all vibrate at a particular frequency or speed. These varying vibrations or pulsations create a field around them which are often referred to as our aura or energy field. The aura is an information center and a highly perceptual system that transmits and receives messages from the external and internal environment.  Each energy layer appears different and has its own individual function. Yet, they continuously interpenetrate each other as well as the physical body. These fields can be felt through touch. It is what Reiki practitioners perceive or sense when we scan with our hands.  The Etheric Field is the first layer of our energy body and is ¼ to 2 inches from
the body. It is the energy duplicate of the physical body. The Emotional Field is where we experience feelings. It extends about 1 to 3 inches beyond the physical body. The Mental Field is associated with thoughts and mental processes. It can be sensed 3 to 8 inches from the body. The Spiritual Field is made up of four or more layers, which help us relate to our higher self and spiritual dimensions. It is activated when we meditate, pray or channel. It extends 6" to 2' beyond our physical body. These energy fields are also referred to as our four levels of being; or our physical, mental, emotional spiritual selves. 

What are the benefits of Reiki?
The benefits of Reiki are it eases the symptoms of many minor and major ailments, and acute and chronic conditions, such as depression, anxiety, stomach aches, intestinal ailments, ADHD, Autism, Crohn's disease, fatigue, chronic pain, sciatica, lower back pain, headaches, migraines, allergies, allergic reactions, viruses, and heart disease. It has the potential to heal sports injuries and repetitive motion injuries. It has even been known to reduce the side-effects of medications after surgery and chemotherapy treatments.

How does Reiki facilitate healing?
Reiki facilitates healing by unblocking and balancing the body’s energy centers or Chakra.s There are seven basic chakra points on the body, including the crown of the head, third eye, throat, heart, solar plexus, sacral, and root. The Reiki practitioner will place her hands on or above each chakra point to guide energy and promote healing.


Who can have Reiki?
Reiki is a non-invasive complementary technique and is valuable to everyone, including pregnant women, babies, children,  You can be skeptical of the practice.  However, whether you believe or not you can still experience the benefits.  It is best to not have any expectations and go with the flow and see what happens.  If you do not experience strong sensations right away people generally recognize an overall change in their wellbeing. 


What should I expect during a Reiki session?
Reiki sessions are typically performed on a massage table with the participant fully clothed. They may also be performed while the participant is sitting in a chair.  During the session, the Reiki practitioner will place her hands over or on the Chakra points of the body. This is done to facilitate the guidance of universal energy towards the participant.  Treatments usually last about 45-60 minutes; including follow up discussion.  

Will I feel anything during a Reiki session?
Each person receiving a Reiki treatment will experience slightly different sensations. In general, most people will experience a deep feeling of relaxation, a sensation of radiance or clarity that appears to be all around the individual, and a release of tension, stress, and anxiety.  Some may experience flashes of colors or imagery, and some may not experience anything.  However, after the session, most individuals feel deeply refreshed and energized.


How long will it take before my pain is reduced or I feel better?
The exact number of sessions is dependent on the individual.  Some may experience changes right away; some may experience changes after a few days. However, most individuals notice significant improvements after their first Reiki session.  Unlike other treatment options, Reiki can be utilized as it is needed. For example, if an individual feels back pain once a week, they can schedule a session to help reduce the pain. Two weeks later, if that same individual is experiencing muscle cramps or headaches, they can return to have those ailments treated.

Does Reiki have any side-effects? 
Do I have to stop my traditional medical treatments or medications?
Reiki does not have any side-effects, and it can be used in conjunction with other traditional and holistic forms of healing. Reiki is complementary to traditional western medicine and provides profound emotional, physical, and spiritual healing results.  Individuals should not stop their traditional treatments or medications without first consulting with their Primary Care Physician (PCP).  

What is Distance Reiki? 
Distance Reiki is a wonderful option for people who cannot come in and lay down for a hands-on Reiki session. For example, people that are ill or living in a different location. Reiki is universal energy.  Therefore, it can be sent to a person, animal, situation time, or place. As a Reiki practitioner, I have the ability to channel universal healing towards you. Sending Reiki is possible because energy is not confined and can transcend time and space so it is easily transmitted anywhere.

What is crystal Reiki?
Crystal Reiki is a form of healing that combines two alternative healing modalities of reiki and crystal healing. During a crystal reiki session, the healing energy is being channeled through the practitioner’s hands and from the crystals to the receiver. A client undergoing a crystal reiki session may have crystals placed directly on the body, or the crystals may be placed beside the client's body. At the same time, the reiki practitioner will conduct a reiki healing treatment on the receiver. The crystals add another layer of energy to amplify the session.  

What is a Reiki Box? 
Reiki Box Healing is a spiritual healing service where you can sign up to receive Reiki healing for a period of time. The Reiki practitioner places your name and your healing goals into a box that is charged every day by continuous Reiki healing and Crystal Reiki healing.  This is great as you will receive a day healing so that you can progressively improve and manifest your goals of health, wealth, love, and happiness! 

What is sound healing? 
Sound healing is an energy healing modality that is highly effective and powerful.  The Reiki practitioner uses quartz healing bowls to produce a sound that aids in aligning the chakras.  Many people find the rich blend of harmonic overtones which the bowls produce have a direct effect upon their mind, body, soul, and chakras in a positive way singing bowls will restore, balance, or enhance your already healthy body. With a sound healing session, you will find your mind, body, and soul will have more clarity. In addition to their traditional usage for meditation, singing bowls are used for deep relaxation, stress reduction, holistic healing, Reiki, chakra balancing, and World music. The harmonics of the singing bowls have also been shown to be a vital part of the healing process for many patients undergoing various dis-ease within an unhealthy body including great relief for cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy.  The singing bowls aid in easing side effects if you have ailments. 

What is aromatherapy?
Aromatherapy is the complementary therapeutic use and application of genuine and authentic plant-derived essential oils for healing body, mind, and spirit. It does not provide a cure for diseases, rashes, or illnesses, but it can support conventional treatment of various conditions.  Some Reiki practitioners utilize essential oils to treat both physical and emotional health conditions by diffusing them during the session or blending personalized roller bottles for topical use. 

Additional Information...- This experience is completely safe and non-invasive.  The Reiki practitioner does not guarantee your symptoms will go away but instead, acts as a conduit for the flow of the Divine universal energy. Although this treatment is non-denominational, it can be a very spiritual experience. Reiki complements traditional medicine and is not meant as a substitute for necessary traditional medical care. Many health care professionals are incorporating Reiki into their practice.  Energy Healing can use multiple modalities of energy healing to fine-tune a healing session that will cater to your specific needs; such as hands-on Reiki, distance Reiki, chakra balancing, sound healing, crystal Reiki, etc.
