​The appearance of Covid19 stopped us in our tracks and changed many habits and aspects of our lives on a global scale.
It infused stress, fear, loss and pain. And with those changes, many Lightworkers have stepped up to bring healing energies to us as a means of coping. Here are a few ways that reiki has helped me. 
Reiki Circles: Our circles could no longer be in person, but are now through a telephone conference call. And yet, the simple act of intention and sending reiki long distance still produces a strong calm healing, helping us to heal and feel empowered. We now also have reiki practitioners call in from many states across the country, thus accommodating those beyond the local practitioners.
Water: Thankfully, the universe has a way of sending me a message often in different formats to let me know what I need. Water was one of them. Water kept coming up, in conversations, on t.v., a leaking toilet and even on one of the Ascended Masters cards picked one night in a reiki circle. It said plainly “Drink More Water”. Message received. What I had forgotten though, was the simple act of sending reiki to my drinking water. Anyone that has read about Masaru Emoto and his experiments on water knows that water in the presence of prayer, gratitude, love, classical music and yes reiki, can raise the vibration and cause the water to crystalize into incredibly beautiful patterns when frozen. Since our physical bodies are composed of a large percentage of water, I can understand how important sending reiki to our drinking water can be. And, imagine what we create when we take showers and are resonating prayer, gratitude, love, hope…
Food: Now, eating out means getting in my car and picking up some carry-out. As my partner drives us home with our meals, I send reiki to the food. I also can send reiki to food being delivered as well as to meals at home.
Reiki at Night: Many of us awaken at night and have a difficult time getting back to sleep if we allow ourselves to think and let anxiety set in. Instead, this is a good time for me to send reiki to friends, family, situations and myself. I also send reiki to my throw blanket for added comfort. 
I’m sure there are many other ways reiki can help us heal and move forward. If you have any practices or ideas, please send them our way. We would love to hear from you. Much love to you,

Many of us are doubting our self-worth. Try as we may, we can’t seem to unlock the experience of unconditional worthiness that would be the first step to manifesting self-love, true peace and sense of our authentic self. In addition, since self-love is necessary to manifest in the 3D world (along with the energies of trust, surrender, detachment and gratitude), a lack of self-worth may keep us from manifesting the new job opportunity, the friends or partner that we would like or the abundance of worldly experiences to help us feel joy and contentment.
Sometimes when we focus so much on our perceived lack of worthiness, we create a downward spiral where we beat ourselves up about not feeling worthy and we start to convince ourselves that the unworthiness is justified. It is not. But, as much as I can say to you and myself that the self-worth is unconditional and comes from the wisdom within, many of us aren’t willing to believe it.
The recommendation for today is to spend your meditation time and self care time allowing yourself to come into alignment with your higher self / soul, with the multidimensional self that you are. Allow yourself to commune with and align with yourself from the physical, emotional and mental aspects of who you feel yourself to be in this experience with the aspects you believe to be more spiritual. You really are you, the totality of you, from the physical level to the metaphysical levels of your being, but it just may not feel that way most of the time.
Start to allow yourself to be in the energy of the divine aspects of yourself regardless if this is you in physical body, you in the emotional body, you in the mental body or you in the spiritual bodies. Feel the divinity at every level. Align yourself at every level. When you know yourself as aligned, you will not judge yourself at any particular consensuses level. Your self-worth will start to take hold more and more. Your self-worth and self-confidence will build. Then, according to the Law of Attraction, the things, feelings and experiences you are trying to manifest will start to build as well.
The following is just one idea for helping to allow in the energy of alignment in order to allow in the energy of self-worth.
I first read about the exercise of the Microcosmic Orbit from the Essential Reiki Handbook by Diane Stein. We teach the Microcosmic Orbit in the Eminent Reiki™ classes. Here is a modified version that can be practiced using any resonance or energy.
Microcosmic Orbit – Torso
The Microcosmic Orbit exercise is used to allow or guide energy throughout the entire physical body. In allowing the physical chi / ki to flow, it helps the energy of the other bodies (emotional, mental and spiritual) bodies to flow.

1. Start the Microcosmic Orbit by feeling or visualizing the energy of alignment to build at the navel.
2. Then, with your intention, guide the energy down and backward to the base of the spine / root chakra.
3. At the base of the spine/ root chakra, allow / guide the alignment energy to flow up the spine. As guided, allow the energy to stop and build, healing blocks.
4. When the alignment energy reaches the back side of the heart chakra, between the shoulder blades, allow the energy to split into two. Guide the alignment energy down the inside of the arms, to the middle of the palms, to the middle finger and up over the hands to the outside of the arms. Allow the alignment energy to build anywhere along the way that feels appropriate.
5. At the shoulders, allow the energy to flow back into one stream of energy and flow up over the head and down the crown, over the face.
6. Allow the alignment energy to flow down the front of the body until it reached the naval center again.
7. Allow this circulation of energy throughout the body as many times as you are guided. You may feel it building and flowing more quickly as blocks are released.
8. After you guide alignment energy around the microcosmic orbit, you may want to guide self-worth energy and self-love energy around the microcosmic orbit. As guided, chose any other energy to guide around the microcosmic orbit, too.
9. You may want to allow the energy to integrate when you are done. No special technique is required to feel grounded afterward. Simply allow for full grounding into your body, as necessary.

Try this exercise for three or four days in a row and see if you start to feel more aligned and feel more self-worth. If you like, repeat the practice more than one time a day. Modify as necessary and allow yourself to know and feel fully aligned and fully worthy of your true self.

Reiki and a Car Battery

Megan B., Eminent Reiki™ Practitioner, shares the following story: “It was winter and raining, I had driven to the drug store to pick up a prescription. It took about twenty minutes. I came out to the parking lot and got in my car and was ready to go when the car wouldn’t start.
 
I tried several times to turn on the engine and nothing. I got out my cell phone and was getting ready to call AAA when all of a sudden I got the message to try my Reiki on the engine. So, sitting in my seat I used both of my hands and directed them toward the battery. Sending the Power Sandwich (learned in Eminent Reiki™ II), I imagined the energy going from my hands to the motor of the car. I tried the key again. Lo and behold the car started. I was so happy.
 
Not only did I not have to call AAA but I didn’t have to get out of the car into the rain and cold. I made sure that I drove the car a little longer than normal to charge the battery but it was fine after that. The next day it started up just fine when I needed to go out.
 
Just to be on the safe side I did take it to my mechanic and he did put a new one in but it was several weeks later. He also told me that my battery had lasted a lot longer than most batteries by several years.”

Growing up Catholic in the middle section of the United States, I believed that God was male. I was raised to believe in equality of female and male humans, but God was referred to as a male. Being Catholic, we did venerate Mother Mary and other female saints, but their goodness and power came from their personal conviction, service to God, and willing obedience to God’s will. These beliefs served me well until they didn’t.
It wasn’t until I was exploring options outside of the Western traditional religions that I realized that God / Source / The All That Is is both male and female. God – indeed the Universe / Source – is made up of both divine masculine and divine feminine energies and I needed to find the truth in this both intellectually and experientially.
Eminent Reiki™ helped me integrate that Source is both masculine and feminine. Eminent Reiki™ is a healing modality that taps into the energy of the universe and channels it for the good of ourselves, others, and all of Mother Earth and her kingdoms. We are taught from the very first class that this universal energy is both masculine and feminine and is balanced and in harmony within itself. One of the goals of Eminent Reiki™ is to balance the masculine and feminine energy within ourselves.
To understand the balance of masculine and feminine energies, take the example of a pendulum swinging from side to side. The balance point in the middle is when masculine and feminine energy is perfectly balanced and in harmony. If the pendulum is on the right side, there is too much masculine energy. If the pendulum is stuck on the left, there is too much feminine energy. The goal is the perfect balance between the two. This balance allows us to feel in harmony with the intuition and wisdom we tap into (feminine energy) as we take the action steps (masculine energy) we are guided to take. Taking action steps that are not well guided or without the wisdom behind them, might mean that we are looking productive but we are not actually accomplishing the goal, because they are the wrong action steps or are harder than they need to be. On the other hand, sitting back and waiting for the absolute perfect information before taking the action step might mean we miss learning what we need to learn in order to move forward. Potentially, too much masculine energy could be viewed like that old saying: we are lost but we are making good time. Too much feminine energy might be viewed as being too scared to make a wrong move that we don’t move forward at all. Both of these scenarios are out of balance. 
In Eminent Reiki™, we specifically try to balance all of our physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual systems to be in harmony between the divine masculine energy and the divine feminine energy. We ask to balance the feminine energy in our light channel and the masculine energy in our light channel. We seek to have these energies in balance to the point that they are blended and there is the power, strength, and wellbeing in that combined energy. There is evolution in the combined energy.
Some people may not think it necessary to distinguish or intentionally bringing in feminine as well as masculine energies. They might ask if we are bringing in and feeling the energy of Source, why is it necessary to specifically ask to bring in divine feminine and divine masculine energy. These people may have a point if they are holding the highest intention that Source is truly made up of many aspects and they are integrating all those different aspects as they refer to and experience the overall energy of Source. However, most people are not experiencing the oneness of these divine aspects that way, yet. Most of us have false beliefs that keep us in either too much masculine energy or too much feminine energy. Our pendulum swings out of balance to one side or the other where we experience life too passively or too actively and in reaction to the belief systems that may no longer serve us well.
If most of us were balanced between our masculine and feminine energies, we would have less strife in our personal lives and in the world as a whole. The energy of Oneness and Source, when balanced with all the different aspects of Source rolling up into it, would manifest in the physical, emotional and mental world much differently than most are currently experiencing life on Earth. Asking to fill with and balance divine masculine and divine feminine energies is the next step to then feeling the oneness of the combined energy.
For me, recognizing that there was more than just a masculine God, then moving to want to feel the energy of the divine feminine with the divine masculine, and then feeling them as One / Source / All That Is is the progression of evolution that is working for me. I encourage you to start to feel this, too. The ultimate goal is to feel this energy as the Oneness that it truly is, but most of us need to take this realization step by step just as we do in most other areas of our lives. We walk before we run. We babble before we speak. Thus, ask to fill with and allow yourself to feel divine feminine and divine masculine energy balanced within.

The Heart is where Home is. It offers Divine Knowing, and tell-tail signs of the Truth. In the 3rd dimension, the 3rd chakra is the power center and source of “gut feelings”.  As we move into 4th dimensional consciousness, we rely on Heart Feelings found in the 4th chakra to guide us. The Heart itself contains neural tissue also found in the human brain. The Heart is full of wisdom and connects to the Divine Mind. The Heart leads the way into eternity and beyond. The Heart knows the Truth; Love is all there is. We are all love, all healing is love. Accepting this reality and vibrating with this frequency creates a compassionate and unconditional approach within the healer that is supremely Divine in its capacity to heal all that needs to be transmuted and released. For this Love is the power of the universe. 

Green Light, Red Light..…follow your Heart Light.  The “Light” that we speak of in metaphysical terms is actually the Light (Love) of your Heart, guiding the way. As a Healer or “Artist with Light”, one must tune into the wavelengths and frequencies  the Heart is emitting, and follow their path to Divine Resurrection. Resurrection of the body, spirit, mind, and feelings to the previous Divine state of perfection is the path of Reiki. The Reiki Light and the Heart Light meld into one, creating a unified pattern of Light that emits the Truth and transforms what no longer resonates with that Truth.  As you release the blocks to feeling and knowing the Divine Way of being in Spirit (in Oneness with All That Is), the flow of Reiki energy and Heart wisdom becomes more free,
more vast, more omnipotent. For as you tune-in to the inner knowingness of the Heart, the path of healing is effortlessly laid out in front of you, calling you to follow its infinite Wisdom.  Be your Truth. Feel your Love. Enjoy the ride. We Love You, from Our Hearts to Yours. 

Namaste,
The Reiki Masters of The Ascended Realms
