Trying Not to Try
In my last post, I was experiencing some computer difficulties, and mentioned that I would be spending the weekend away for some R&R, friends, family & energy work. I also mentioned that I had been feeling a little “stuck” lately and hoped that would resolve itself soon. Here’s an update. The computer issues are resolved. […]
Crazy Days
The last few days have been kind of crazy. For two days, I had weird computer issues. First, Twitter suspended my account. Mine was one of a large number of accounts mistakenly suspended for no reason. Twitter corrected it and apologized but it brought to life how much I really rely on my involvement with […]
Alice’s Awakening
People often ask me how I got here, how I became a passionate Reiki teacher. Here’s the story, and links to a number of posts written at the time of the events I’ve described here. Please enjoy. When I was a kid, I wanted to feel special. Doesn’t everyone want to feel special, endowed with […]
A Trickle or a Gush – Intuitive Development
One of the things I do for people is intuitive development mentoring. I would like to say outright that I am not the most intuitive person I know. Not at all. I’ll also tell you that I was not born psychic, and I never had any sort of childhood intuitive abilities. I have never seen […]
The Weight of the Word
In my other professional life, I write content and rules for games. Board games, mostly – social party games involving cards, questions, and friendly competition. I learned through having this kind of job that every word is important. Words for cards, questions and rules must be chosen carefully in order to be clear about how […]
Reiki for Parents is in Session!
This week I started teaching Reiki for Parents to my first group of students. In preparing to do so, I wrote a manual. This was an interesting process for me, as it naturally forced me to examine the way I use Reiki in my parenting, and decide how I wanted to organize the course. I […]
Special Mentions, New Opportunities
I’ve been blessed this week, and lately by mentions in some very well written blog posts and I thought I would share them here all together. I’ve also had some wonderful opportunities to talk about Reiki on two internet radio shows, and I’d like to share that with you as well. The reason I’m posting […]
A Big Lesson on Attunements and Time
I had a very enlightening experience last night with one of my new Energy Healing Mentoring Program students, and I think it’s important to share what I’ve learned. It was her first attunement to Kundalini Reiki. I did my customary introduction email, which includes information about the attunement process, including how to receive the attunements. […]
Plop!
When I was 12 years old, I won a 10 speed bike from McDonald’s. Really, I did! I had only entered a drawing, as did many others, by putting a little card into a box in the restaurant. That bike was way oversized for me (I’m not a tall person to say the least, and […]
The Rosy Glasses
Had an interesting lesson on perspective this week from my friend David. He started the conversation by congratulating me on my husband’s job situation. My first thought was that he’d missed the memo – didn’t realize that my husband is looking for work after being laid off recently from his job at MetroHealth. So I […]
