TIPS ON BECOMING A FULLTIME REIKI PRACTITIONER

Welcome to Cosmic Answers! 

Today, we're tackling a big question: How can one be a full-time Reiki healer? This is a complex topic with no definitive answers, but I'll share insights from my 20 years as a Reiki healer, including 17 years as a full-time teacher.

Your Key Points to Consider: 

First, understanding the calling: Not everyone has the calling to practice Reiki healing full-time. While everyone can practice Reiki, transitioning to a full-time healer is a calling. This calling often feels like a Divine invitation to dedicate your life to this work

Second, ponder on career considerations: If you approach Reiki sole as a career, you may find yourself returning to traditional employment. Many people experience this limbo, realizing that their true calling is not necessarily tied to being a full-time Reiki practitioner.

Third, Balance your Reiki practice with your Day job:  It is perfectly okay to practice Reiki alongside your day job. The desire to be a Reiki practitioner doesn't always mean you have to be full-time. The calling to full-time practice is distinct and often more profound.

Explore the Tips on This Journey: 

Now, let's explore some tips to help you on this journey: 

1.  Prayer and Reflection: Pray and Talk to God about your desire to heall. Ask for blessings and guidance. For example, I prayed, "God, I want to heal as my service to you. If full-time healing is my calling, please bless me and pave the way." If this is your calling, you'll be amazed at how clients will start to come to you.

2.  Look for Signs: Pay attention to signs such as an increasing number of clients, new opportunities to heal, and venues opening up as healing spaces. A burning desire to help people, no matter what, is also a strong indicator.

3.  Mission Over Work:  Full-time healing feels more like a mission than a job. You must be ready to heal with or without financial compensation. You are open to healing rich or poor. This is because you trust that God will provide for your needs in many forms and ways. This sense of higher purpose is crucial

4.  Prepare for Tests:  Challenges, especially financial ones, will test your commitment. During these times, reaffirm your dedication. For instance, I faced financial difficulties and considered returning to work. I prayed, "God, I want to serve you through healing, but I need to provide for my family." Miraculously, clients always came, reinforcing my path as a healer.

5.  Apply Spiritual Business Principles:  Many are unaware that spiritual business principles can be applied to Reiki practice until they encounter frameworks like the Strategic Synchronicity Attraction Plan, which I teach in my Reiki Professional Training. These principles help promote your work and establish a fair energy exchange. The goal isn't to maximize profit but to make your services known and sustainable, allowing you to continue serving others. By valuing your work and ensuring it's recognized, you can create a balanced and thriving practice that benefits both you and those you help.

6.  Be prepared for Interruptions:  If your goal is to make Reiki your full-time mission, be ready for some interruptions along the way. Initially, you might need to take on additional work outside of Reiki to support your studies or personal needs. This supplementary work can help sustain you as you build your healing practice. Over time, as your Reiki practice grows and expands, you'll find that you can gradually let go of these extra jobs and focus entirely on your mission. Being flexible and adaptable in the early stages is crucial to achieving long-term success.

7.  Renew Your Goals: Continuously nurture your personal goals and your mission to serve through healing. Like a plant, this commitment needs regular care and attention. Keep healing yourself and deepening your dedication.

8.  Always Talk To God:  Remember, God is your ultimate employer. Engage in daily, even moment-to-moment, communication with God. Share your concerns, worries, fears, and needs. Trust that God will guide and support you through various events and the people around you. This constant dialogue with the divine will help you stay grounded, focused, and aligned with your mission as a Reiki healer.

9.  Be open To Receiving:  Just as you open yourself to giving, also be open to receiving. Accept any offerings that might help you in your practice or meet your needs. Remember, God often provides through the generosity of others, sending "Human Angels" to support you on your path. Embrace these gifts with gratitude, recognizing them as part of the divine provision that enables you to continue your healing work.

10.  Acceptance and Balance: If full-time Reiki practice isn't for you, that's okay. You can still design a fulfilling life with a day job while helping others through healing. Acceptance is key to finding your unique path.

Remember, becoming a full-time Reiki healer is a journey of faith, dedication, and self-discovery. Whether you practice part-time or full-time, your contribution to healing is invaluable.

STEP TWO: RELEASE AND LET GO TO START YOUR YEAR

“Don’t put a newly cooked rice at the top of your spoiled one.”

Or else, you are shall be eating spoiled food. The next step in preparing ourselves for a new action is to release any spoiled parts of ourselves. If you haven’t read Step One, please read first the first step at this link:

STEP ONE: SEEK FIRST THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN

Many people jump into visioning and making plans and actions without releasing first what can block along the way. After we have sat down and sought God within us, the next step is to heal ourselves to release anything thought and emotions that can block us along the way. Unhealed emotions and negative thoughts comprise our vibrations and vibrations are necessary for manifestation.

How can these blocks affect us?

Any actions come from emotions and thoughts. Therefore, unwanted and unhealthy thoughts and actions can lead us into 1) repeating the same patterns of actions and results that lead us to stagnant progress and 2) pessimism and fear that can freeze our actions for progress in life.

Failure to address these blocks, in the long run, can lead us into the following:

 

1. Regression or retardation of spiritual growth
2. Unrest of mind and confusion
3. Inability to connect to ones’ Higher Self or Mind
4. Attracting negative people or experiences.
5. Confusion about life and events
6. Addiction to past experiences.
7. Self-destruction
8. Hopelessness

 

To address the block and move smoothly in life, we may do the following actions:

 

Action 1: Check on your chakras through the following questions: (For those who do not know chakras, chakras also called energy centers contain our thoughts and emotions.)

                   Go into a meditative state. Start with a prayer. Then ask the following questions while putting your hands on each chakra. Be mindful of your intuitive answer. If you are a Reiki practitioner, then you can invoke Reiki on this exercise or invoke the angels for each chakra.

CHAKRAS	HAND POSITIONS	QUERY	BLOCKS
Base Energy Center	Put your hands on the lower back at the end of the spinal column.	a)  Do I feel alone in life?       b)      Do I feel that life is so hard?       c)      Do I feel unsupported?	Feeling Unsupported by the Cosmos
Sacral Energy Center	Put your hands on the lower part of the stomach.	a)      Do I always feel a lack of resources or money?      b)      Do I feel unsatisfied with my job?      c)      Do I always blame myself?	Feeling of Lack Feeling of guilt or blame for current situation
Solar Plexus	Put your hands on the upper part of the stomach.	a)      Do I take care of myself?      b)      Do I feel angry about life events?      c)      Do I feel powerless?	Powerlessness
Heart Center	Put your hands on the center of your heart.	a)      Do I feel loved?      b)      Am I ready to love?      c)      Am I willing to receive?	Hate, Unforgiveness
Throat Center	Put your hands on your throat	a)      Do I follow my dreams?      b)      Can I speak for myself?	Procrastination
Forehead Center	Put your hands on your forehead	b)      Am I confused about life?	Narrowmindedness
Crown Center	Put your hands on your crown	a)      Do I call God to guide me in my life?      b)      Do I have deep faith and trust in God?	Separation from God

 

Action 2:  After your reflection, then we now start to let go with healing and affirmations. (Note that recognition and acceptance of what blocks us start the healing process. So, many lightworkers hesitate to look and examine their past for fear of being stuck on it. This is a wrong interpretation. We all can live in the present and move to the future when we revisit the past with acceptance and forgiveness. There is a pre-requisite to saying “Forget the past and move on. The important requirement is that one has already been friends with the past so that they can close or forget peacefully.)

 

1. Put your hands in the praying position and say,  "Through the Power of my God‐Mind, I release past negativity and release my mind – God-directed – into a positive future."
2. Say the affirmation, doing the hand positions in each chakra. Feel the energy of the affirmations.

 

          Go into a meditative state. Start with a prayer. Then ask the following questions while putting your hands on each chakra. Be mindful of your intuitive answer. If you are a Reiki practitioner, then you can invoke Reiki on this exercise or invoke the angels for each chakra.

  

CHAKRAS	HAND POSITIONS	AFFIRMATIONS
Base Energy Center	Put your hands on the lower back at the end of the spinal column.	I am One with the support of the Universe.
Sacral Energy Center	Put your hands on the lower part of the stomach.	I am One with prosperity and material wealth – immediately, now, and eternally.
Solar Plexus	Put your hands on the upper part of the stomach.	I am One with the power of the Divine who is within me.
Heart Center	Put your hands on the center of your heart.	I am One with a perfect love in all of my relationships immediately, now, and eternally
Throat Center	Put your hands on your throat.	I am One with my chosen path  – immediately, now, and eternally.
Forehead Center	Put your hands on your forehead	I am One with the mind of God.
Crown Center	Put your hands on your crown	I am one with God.

 

 Action 3:  End with gratitude. Gratitude can take into many forms. It can be a prayer, a song, or an offering.

 

Now you are ready for the last action which is empowering the vision and action.

 

Hold on for the Step 3:

 

Blessings,

START THE NEW YEAR – STEP ONE: SEEK FIRST THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN

“ But seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you.” – Mather 6:33

 

The above verse is my inspiration and my guide. 

 

The new year always comes to everyone as a new beginning. To everyone, it is the time to plan, a time to visualize, a time to affirm, and a time to execute. However, let us not rush. It is good to see the alignment of our mind to our spirit. The holiday season prepares us for this connection. Let us see the season deeply. 

 

It is desgined that the Christmas Season ends with the observance of Epiphany. After celebrating the Light of Christ, we are being led to seek the light within as our Guide for the New Year. This is the symbolic meaning of the three kings who allowed themselves to be guided by the bright star. 

 

Esoterically, the three kings symbolized the “body”, “mind”, and “spirit”. Their going back home after finding the Baby Jesus is like our going back home to our mundane life. This time with the Christ Light.

 

I invite you first to spend a time of prayer and reflection before anything else. You may have a retreat or just 2-3 hours with God. 

 

1. Sit in meditation. If you are a Reiki Practitioner, do the Gassho Meditation. Spend a minimum of 30 minutes feeling the presence of God. Feel God through your breath or just be in silence.
2. Read a spiritual text either the Holy Scripture, Bhagavad Gita, or other books that you resonate with. Allow yourself to be led to an inspirational message.
3. Talk to God. You may ask questions. Allow yourself to receive an answer if not at the moment but in the coming days
4. When you feel the great presence of God in your activity – start to look back on the past year. See your experience through God’s lens.
5. End with gratitude. Be creative. Write, draw, or make a collage.
6. Just a note. You may divide your time for steps 1-5.

God’s inspiration will lead us into illumination and unto the next step which is healing and releasing, my next block.

Love and Light,

LIGHT YOUR CHAKRA LIGHTS - YOUR CHRISTMAS LIGHTS!

I am writing this when December is already ending and Christmas lights will go off in a week. However, I feel this is the right time for me to write and call on everyone to light our inner Christmas Lights in gratitude. 

Celebrating Christmas

Christmas means – celebration or gathering for Light. Esoterically, when we think about the birth of Christ, we are referring to the birth of Christ consciousness within us. The Christ consciousness is the consciousness that allows us to serve humanity and the earth, to live through unconditional love, and be connected to our Divine Creator and our True Essence.

                                                                Photo by Annie Spratt on Unsplash

Christ means Light and symbolically the Christmas lights and lanterns are meant to remind us of the Light within our Soul. So, much living for material survival for the year that we are asked to end the year by connecting to our Light – our Soul. Celebrate the Light comes with joy and gratitude. This is the season about merry-making.

 

Gratitude For the Light

 

While we can all be looking on the lights around us during Christmas, let us now look at the lights 
within us in gratitude.

 

The lights within us are in our chakras or energy centers. They are our Christmas lights when lit up and

activated. They all come with gifts. Let us now light these all up in gratitude. 

 

Step One: 

 

Think of the present moment. Your first light is the Base Energy Center. This is about your life and the strength to live here on earth. You are alive. You thrived through the pandemic.

 

Touch your tailbone on your lower back. Close your eyes and imagine a red color shining brightly on your tailbone down towards your feet. Thank God for the present moment. Be grateful for being on this earth. Thank the Divine God for your life. Continue to feel the gratitude. When you feel satisfied, you may open your eyes. 

 

Step Two:

 

Think about your gifts, your talents, your work, and your sustenance. Your second light is the Sacral Energy Center. This is about your sustenance – money, work, creation, and many others.

 

Place your hands on the lower part of your abdomen, below the navel. Close your eyes and imagine an orange aura shining on the lower part of your stomach. Thank God for all that you have received to sustain your physical needs. Thank God for your talents and wholeness as a person in the family and the community. When you feel satisfied, you may open your eyes. 

 

 Step Three:

Think about your strengths. How did they manifest in facing life this year? Your third light is the Solar plexus, located two inches above your navel.

 

Place your hands on the upper part of your stomach, above the navel. Close your eyes and imagine a yellow aura shining on these area of your stomach. Thank God for your strength to face challenges. Thank God for your determination to move forward in life. Thank God for teaching you how to transform fear into courage and worries into inspiration. When you feel satisfied, you may open your eyes. 

 

Step Four:

Think about the people in your life now. They are your carers, your lovers, and your supporters. Yes,
some have hurt you but left you with lessons. Your fourth light is your Heart Chakra in the center of your chest.

Place your hand on heart. Close your eyes and imagine a pink aura shining in the center of your heart. Thank God for love and relationships. Thank God for the lessons of love and giving. Open yourself to give and receive. When you feel satisfied, you may open your eyes. 

 

Step Five:

 

Think about your life path. Life path is our expression. Your fifth light is our Throat Chakra. Your center for communication.

 

Place your heart on your throat. Close your eyes and imagine a blue aura shining on your throat. Thank God for your spoken words. Thank God for the path of life that you are taking. Thank God for words of love and encouragement. When you feel satisfied, you may open your eyes. 

 

Step Six:

 

Think about the vision that you see about our life in general. Do you see the darkness and the light as one? Do you receive inspiration? Do you believe in the seen and unseen realities of life? Your sixth light is your Forehead Chakra, your center for illumination and vision.

 

Place your hand on your forehead. Close your eyes and imagine an indigo aura shining on your forehead. Thank God for understanding. Thank God for seeing the light and beauty amidst the darkness. Thank God for understanding life beyond the physical senses. When you feel satisfied, you may open your eyes. 

 

Step Seven:

 

Feel your connection to our Divine Creator. Do you trust the unknown future? Do you feel supported by the cosmos? Your seventh light is the crown center, the way to reclaim our Divinity as a creation of God.

 

Place your hand on your crown. Close your eyes and imagine a violet aura on your crown. Thank God for your beingness. Thank God for the Divinity within you.

 

Last Step:

 

Feel the seven lights within you shining in gratitude. Your Christ-mas lights are now shining.

 

Christ-mas is about gathering for Christ, the Light. Let our light shine in gratitude. Let is shine brightly welcoming the New Year!
