Welcome to day two of our 10 days of Self-Reiki.
Today's practice will be a practice for overcoming anxiety and fear and worry,
Which I felt so appropriate for us at this time in the world.
So I hope you enjoy it.
Find your way to a comfortable seated position and close your eyes.
We'll begin with our hands in Gesho,
Palms pressed together in front of the heart.
And our five precepts Gokai.
Just for today,
I will not be angry.
Just for today,
I will not worry.
Just for today,
I will do my work honestly.
Just for today,
I will be grateful.
And just for today,
I will be kind to myself and all living creatures.
Our first position is to place the hands over the eyes.
You can press or have very light pressure or even hover the hands off the face if you prefer.
We'll hold each position for about one minute.
As you breathe,
Imagine cleansing the eyes with this Reiki energy.
All that we see and know enters through the eyes and embeds itself in our subconscious mind.
So fear,
Anxiety,
Disharmony,
Things we've been taking in lately,
Just sitting in our subconscious brewing.
This is how we clear it out.
Continue to breathe smoothly and evenly.
Just as Reiki ideals remind us with the words just for today to stay centered in the now,
Reiki helps us to overcome fear and worry and anxiety by staying present.
Reiki helps to ground us in the now,
Which is where our power is.
So if you're feeling fear or worry or anxiety,
You are either in the future worrying about something that might happen or in the past worrying about something unwanted from the past happening again.
And if your fear is based on something happening right now in the present,
You will be guided on how to best handle that situation through this intelligent,
Pure,
Luminescent energy of Reiki.
Remember,
You are an unlimited and eternal being.
We'll move our hands down from over the eyes to one palm over the forehead,
One palm at the base of the skull,
Calming the nervous system,
Calming the mind.
This area of the third eye shows us truth,
Cuts through illusion,
Connects us to our intuition.
Imagine from the center of your palms this luminous light energy flowing in,
Being absorbed by the skin,
The bone,
The organs,
The tissues.
Keep your breath steady and even.
This energy flows into your energetic and your physical body,
Dispelling fear,
Replacing it with love.
You become naturally anchored in the vibration of love as Reiki performs its healing.
Bring the hands over your temples.
As the hands rest on either side of the head over the temples,
You can again place pressure,
Light pressure,
Or hover.
Pay attention to your thoughts here.
Notice when you start to want to control situations and experiences and others,
You are in an underlying state of fear when this happens.
It happens to all of us.
As you focus on your breathing,
Just allowing all that fear to be replaced with love.
Turn to this Reiki energy and allow it to calm your nerves and get back into a more relaxed state.
Now bring your hands to either side of your jaw.
Place your index finger behind your ear and the other fingers in front.
It's almost like you're scissoring your earlobes.
That way your palms can rest nicely into the jaw,
Supporting the jaw.
Stay rooted in your breath and just ask tension to leave,
Draining any toxins in the face,
Any tension from the face,
Smoothing out your breath.
And again,
Sensing that from your hands this white light,
Healing light,
Is absorbed into the bone,
Into the muscles of the jaw,
Into the mouth,
Tongue,
Teeth,
Gums,
Replacing any stagnants,
Irregular energy with this pure flowing energy of healing light.
Maybe there's tingling or warmth either in your jaw or your hands.
Notice temperature changes.
And then bring your left hand to your right shoulder,
Top of the shoulder,
Area where those muscles tend to tense up.
You can let your right hand just relax as your left palm is resting on your right shoulder.
You're helping to soothe away tight muscles of this area.
When we're feeling stressed or anxious or fearful,
We tend to tighten here,
Which communicates directly to the nervous system that there's something to be wary about,
Something to be prepared for,
Something lurking around the next corner.
And so have the intention of just softening the muscles here,
Letting your guard down a bit,
Relaxing.
And then just shifting sides,
Taking your right palm now to the top of your left shoulder,
Relaxing your left arm down and breathing.
Letting tension flow out of the muscles on the side.
Fear that gets released and subsides is replaced with positive energy.
All the negative chemicals that are released into the body due to fear are dissolving.
This is the power of Reiki.
Now bring your hands down and cross your forearms.
It's like position when you're about to get baptized,
Crossing the forearms and placing both hands across your collarbones.
Your right hand lays on your left collarbone,
Your left hand on your right collarbone.
Lots of lymphatic tissues here.
You can find some buildup from the face and the throat and the neck here.
And so inviting toxins to leave the body now.
Visualize the light of your palms soaking into the skin.
And then bringing the hands to the heart.
Bring the hands any way you'd like to over the heart center.
When we step into our soul empowered nature,
We help anchor the higher dimensional frequencies onto the earth.
So not only serving ourselves by healing our fear,
But also serving others.
When you realize that you are whole,
Divine and unlimited being,
You cannot be harmed.
Staying centered in your loving vibrations and continuing to work out the darkness of fear.
Are we powerful enough to keep our light shining?
I believe we are.
And when you need a little extra help to stay anchored in that loving soul light,
Reiki is there for you.
Imagine your heart pumping and the blood that travels through this organ,
Carrying this light through every blood vessel in the body,
Going everywhere in the body,
Nourishing every cell,
Every organ.
Now bringing your hands to the upper abdomen,
Just over the upper front ribs,
Area of the adrenals which regulate our hormones.
Balancing,
Calming the adrenals,
Balancing the hormones,
Feeling the ribs rising and falling beneath your palms.
Maybe repeating the affirmation,
I release all fear into the light and it is gone forever.
I release all fear into the light and it is gone forever.
Last hand position,
Bring your hands down two inches below the belly button,
Our earth key,
Keeping us grounded and connected to Mother Earth,
Keeping our stress and our anxiety under control.
We have too much anxiety,
We are anything but grounded,
And so spending some time here,
Balancing the earth key.
You can have the vision of a ball of white light centered here,
Focus on your breath.
With each and every breath,
You are filling your body up with more and more energy,
More and more key,
More Reiki.
And by contrast,
The out-breath distributes this key throughout the body.
So imagine on your inhale breath,
This glowing ball of light in your earth key getting more and more radiant,
Brighter and brighter.
With your exhales,
Sending that light out now in all directions,
Down through your legs,
To the tips of your toes,
Out through the tips of your toes,
Up through the torso,
Up through the crown of the head.
Notice any sensations,
Tingling or warmth,
Feeling grounded and anchored.
Affirming that through this practice,
We are now centered,
Walking in balance through your life,
Releasing and removing energies that do not serve your highest good.
Releasing and removing energies that are incompatible with your path,
Energies that are not yours to carry,
Energies that are toxic or detrimental.
Releasing,
Removing and returning these energies into the loving arms of Mother Earth to be cleansed,
Purified,
Recycled.
Bring your hands back together in front of your heart,
Gashon.
And repeat,
Silent knee after knee.
I now ask to be surrounded with divine light,
With my team of guides,
Angels,
Ascended masters.
Surround me fully and completely.
As you speak these words,
Feel the white light entering into your presence.
Breathing in and breathing out.
I ask that the white light fill and surround me,
Completely cleansing and purifying my mind,
Body and spirit.
Protect me,
Allowing the pure divine guidance of my guides to flow through and yet block out any and all negativity,
Lower vibrational energies or entities.
And so it is.
I'd like to thank you for completing this second day of Reiki,
Self-Reiki.
Hope today brings you lots of joy,
Peace and gratitude.
Namaste.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
