Sunday Morning OM
I have brought out the Buddha statue and put it on the table amongst fresh cut herbs or other pickings from the garden. Over dinner one night, James taught Val “Buddha says OM.” Randomly now, she will say it. ”Buddha OM” or “Mama OM.” Just yesterday she said it as I was putting her into [...]
Reiki self-treatment #4
I am determined. I am ready. I am going to get certified in reiki soon. Real soon.
A little background of my reiki here and self-treatments here, here, and here.
Last night, I finally completed self-treatment #4. I went to bed and centered myself, turned on some relaxing music, and did a body scan. My aura greatly dipped at my pelvis, which [...]

It certainly has been awhile since I have done my last Reiki treatment on myself. You can read about it here. You can also get more information about Reiki and why I practice through this post.
DH asked for a Reiki session last night, but I felt completely burned out and sore and tired from the [...]
Reiki Self-Treatment 2
This morning I woke up with a headache and thought that I really should do another reiki treatment on myself. Read about my first one here, or about reiki and how I began practicing.

But in order to get my full certification, I must complete some other steps. Included in those steps is giving myself treatments and journaling about them.
I have [...]
Stepping Lightly v1.0
Have you ever, in your life, kept running across phrases or people who bring you the same theme? Do you think it is coincidence or do you take it as a sign to begin questioning yourself and finding an answer?
It all started for me with Michele’s blog, and her newest venture about writing about her [...]
My trip down Reiki lane
Rebecca reminded me that I haven’t updated about my Reiki Level I certification that I’m in the process of completing.
Well, let’s start with a little bit of history of reiki in case I scared people by mentioning it. In the words of William Lee Rand (who is a practioner of the Usui Reiki which I [...]
Final Chapter – A New Earth
As I have mentioned previously, I am reading A New Earth by Eckhart Tolle. Ahem, I *was* reading it. I am now finished!
The last chapter has really cleared up a lot for me about what he meant by a new earth and living in the now. The new earth part [...]
