One Breath Reiki Healing

I completed my very first 5 card tarot spread for myself and the universe has spoken loud and clear on an open reading. It is spot on for my current frame of mind.

Now—-Ace of Wands: Have self belief and know the way forward and go.

Blockage—-8 of Pentacles: Just get on with it. Make repairs and renewals in self-awareness.

The past —- 3 of Swords: The feeling of something not being as it should.

The future —- The Hanged Man: Undergo a change of mind and an adjustments of feeling.

The outcome: Say goodbye to the old you. The turning point.

Sometimes it’s just about popping into a book store and coming away with new things. ☺️☺️

I am at the cross road.

I love my career as a nurse and during the pandemic I felt it would be a genius idea to become a small business making custom handmade bags. I invested more dollars than I can count into something I was sure I could make a go of.

I have had some successes to be sure, but the reality is I can’t compete with the “big guys.”

What does this have to with my Reiki instagram, you ask? I have been in a deep funk since May about my “other enterprise” and today I decided that something that doesn’t bring me happiness, doesn’t feed the person I want to be.

My tarot card draw supports that I need a break to reset and re-prioritize. Some may say that tarot cards are hokum and you read into it what you want to hear but this one is spot on for exactly what I have been feeling.

Incredibly long story short, trust your gut and listen to what the universe has to tell you.

My girls love their new cat tree! So snuggly and cute. 😍😍

This is the reason I upended a 12 year career and started somewhere new. It was the best decision I ever made even though it was incredibly scary.

We are connected to everything. Root yourself in the earth and open your crown to the stars.

Join me for week 2 of January affirmations.

Bring your intentions to focus every day and give thanks for each moment.

Healing stone Friday

Amazonite

Not only is it an incredibly pretty stone to look at, it has amazing protection and healing properties.

Protection: It can help with filtering and protection against microwaves, cell phone emanations and electromagnetic pollution.

Healing: Amazonite helps with calming the mind and nervous system, while helping to bring both the masculine/feminine energies into harmony. It can help to heal and open both the heart and throat chakras to promote loving communication.

How to use: Wear it as jewelry or simply place it between you and the source of electromagnetic energy.

Today was about a different kind of self-love. I went all in.

The larger design is the Evenstar from Lord of the Rings and the writing beneath it says “Not all who wander are lost” (in Elvish).

This saying is so relevant because lately I have spent a lot of time feeling like I’m drifting and wandering around in certain parts of my life. But this reminds me that while I may wander, I will end up where I am meant to be.

On the first day of the new year, I wanted to share these daily affirmations for January that posted, and I knew they were perfect for a new start to posting more often, and with intention.

Welcome to 2024. It is a new day, and we will shine on.

It is unbelievable that 2023 has come to a close. It has not turned out to be the year I wanted it to be when it came to my Reiki practice.

I could blame any number of things on this, but the reality is, I doubted myself and I doubted my ability for growth. I allowed my social media presence to diminish because of this.

But I will enter into 2024 moving forward from the person I was, to become the person I was always meant to be.

I send love and light to all of you for the upcoming year.

It’s been a while since I’ve posted.

Why? Life has been super busy. As a nurse of 12 years in the same department, it was time for a change.

A change in my daily routine, a change to help my mental health and change in my outlook.

I quit my old job and started at a new hospital and it’s been super hectic with all the orientation and figuring out my place.

I’m hoping that with all of the changes I will be able to focus more on my Reiki practice and focus on the things I need in my life.

Today is Sacral chakra day.

So what is it? Your sacral chakra sits between your belly-button and pelvis. It is the centre for emotions like joy, motivation and creativity.

It also regulates a lot of the organs found in our abdomen, like our bowels and kidneys.

If your sacral chakra gets blocked, we often feel like we just don’t want to do anything. Not because we’re lazy, we just don’t feel the motivation. People with a lot of creative outlets also find they lose their mojo for those usually enjoyable tasks.

Often our actual gut can experience upset and changes that are uncomfortable and unpleasant.

Today was tower day here at One Breath!

Thank you .gemboutique for these simply stunning towers!

As we go through the week, I’ll do a dedicated post on all my new friends, and how they can help for calming and balance.

Today was a day for new crystals to add to my practice.

Lots of Reiki practitioners use crystals within their work as different crystals have different healing properties.

However, I’ll freely admit I bought the agate druzy moon and opalite keychain because they are so dang pretty!!

I always cleanse and infuse my crystals with Reiki before their first use on myself or anyone else, because in the store they can pick up at lot of negative energy from handling.

Just let me know if you want to know which one is which!!

Thank you .rockspace for my newest haul!!

I have spent the last 7 years of my 12 year nursing career doing long shifts that involve intense physical work.

I ended up being off on disability in 2022 with a shoulder injury from that intense physical work.

I survived working through a pandemic that levelled many fellow nurses but at the end of it all, my life was only about work. Drive to work, do the work, drive home from work, repeat again.

Being that May is a season of rebirth for nature, May is a season of changes for me a well. I have decided to put myself first in the order of things that are important.

A change of nursing job to balance my life and my work, beginning my Reiki practice, focusing on what I need to be healthy in my mind and my body.

The changes make me nervous because my life has been the same for over 7 years but the change is for my greater good. I don’t fear the change, instead I embrace that the universe has spoken to me and I have heard the words I needed to.

Listen to what the universe has to tell you, and never fear that the universe is steering you in the wrong direction. It will always lead to the place you need to be, even if it takes you down paths you never expected to be on.

Reiki sessions can be an excellent source of self love moments. The sessions can help calm the mind, which will in turn help to calm the body. Bookings will start to be posted in June for introductory rates. So keep your eyes open!!

You are an amazing source of the energy of the universe.

Use your energy for the higher good and love the energy of all living things.

When your Reiki space is kitten approved, good things shall follow.

Unlike many alternative health therapies, much of Reiki is done through a “no-touch” technique.

This means that during treatment, not everyone will feel the energy flow from their practitioner. That’s okay though!

Reiki energy flows where it is needed regardless of whether you feel any of the sensations described or not.

Happy Star Wars day to all! Use the force… do or do not… the force is in all of us.

Energy flows through all living things. We use this energy daily on our physical, emotional and spiritual functions. Often, those functions are out of balance.

Your Reiki healer uses their positive energies to align with your own, and works to assist your body to bring your energies back into balance.

Positive energies are used by the healer to rebalance changes that occur due to emotional and physical stresses in your life.

The benefits of Reiki are far reaching in both the physical body and the emotional centres of the mind.

Welcome to Reiki.

Understanding what it is and what it can do will help guide you to your healer, and your healing.
