Signs of Spring is a process I use to enhance my trust in the Universe. I developed as a part of my book, Secret Art of Happiness: Change your Life with the Reiki Ideals. It really works. Just a tiny bit of positive attention to the things that are working in your life, means that [...]
In Buddhism, where the concept of mindfulness originated, the heart is considered the seat of the mind. The true mind, the wise voice within us, always resides in the heart. Our hearts contain unlimited compassion, wisdom, and Divine connection. In our western philosophy, the mind has normally been equated with the brain. I have nothing against brains. [...]
March has been a turbo, jetpack of a month for me. The creative ideas have been coming fast and furious and I have willingly surrendered to the amazingness. YogaReiki (now a thing), meditation courses based on my book material, a new practitioner space, book writing, blogging, essential oil meditation, teaching Reiki. It is a really [...]

The truth is... you don't really know. You [...]
There are moments in receiving a Reiki session where you stop trying to record all the information and just fall silent. The conscious mind stills. A slack tide in the midst of it all. In that space that opens up, pure energy falls in and fills your intention to fullness. In these moments of letting [...]
Yeah. So. Vulnerability sucks. (Can I get an amen!?) It is the rough and tattered edge of what we previously thought was possible for ourselves. It would be easier to be comfortable with the status quo. “Don’t ever change anything!”, shouts our ego. But if we enjoy breathing, change we must. Either way, life will [...]
Letting go of anger is a process. It is difficult when we are overwhelmed with emotion to jump right to a positive, happy thought. Peace may feel light-years away.
