Reiki Course 1 – 3 of 5

This lesson is one where we will work hard. We (will) Create – We Make – We Do!

Reiki gives you a wonderful toolbox and a zillion of opportunities to be used. Many ideas and creations can be found in exercises and applications. So,  that gives us a colourful and pretty perspective to work on!

This night we will play, in an intuitive way. I will bring colour – music and art exercises. It depends on the energy which you bring as well in what we will discover and explore. I will be your guide in the Reiki – Playground. Once more 😉

It will be a exciting evening and i hope it will be lucid and vivid and gay.

This is the guideline for the evening: 

Music / Movement exercise

First we start by movement! We will do a classic Jinga Flow from the capoeira. It makes all the cross-over links in your body work more properly. Take a look at this video: Ginga in Action!

The reason for this movement exercise is as follows. When you are using your body for energy work, it is a very good idea to let your body grow in its consciousness as well. I want to stretch out the idea here for using your body as an instrument. Words and images cannot give this connotation, feeling will get a little closer. Feeling and sensing are two well known and understood parameters – a little like you can talk on sensing on your skin a cold or warm feeling.

I wanted to find exercises to make your body grow as an instrument. In a senso-motoric way. Body and soul will reconnect in a different way. Yoga is of course one of the disciplines which crossed my mind. It is a wonderful life-style-training- feeling – growing system in itself. Body, mind and personal development go together in a unique and wonderful system.  Yoga is easy to find. There are many possibilities to reach it and to find it so I will not use it 😉

I want to present you two other exercises I love. These are easy, effective, useful and fun 😉

The Caterpillar. You move down, head first and all the way down, until you are with your feet and hands on the ground. Then you will roll with your hands forward  – step by step  like a caterpillar. When you are in the plank position, you will stretch and then you will roll back.

You stretch your spinal cord in a playful way, you’re meridians are being stretched and teased and all the energy systems are having a pep up by this exercise.

Stretch – and – up – You give yourself a big stretch. Up you go – one arm in  the air. And then you cross your feet. So you are on your feet, on one hand and the other hand is in the air! You stretch until you reach the sky! A lovely stretch for everything.

Exercise in colour and colour meditation

Colours are a specific part of our white light, and light is part of the all – overall wonderful energy which surrounds us. Colour and healing are like brother and sister, they go together mostly very well 😉 Our chakras have their own colours – following the rainbow: red – orange – yellow – green – indigo blue – purple – white – gold 😉

Here’s a little visual:

Colours are the children of our light. They show a pars pro totem – a part of he whole. All colours have a complementary brother or sister in the colour system. This is wonderful: this makes it possible to visualise the biggest contrast in colours. This is very useful when you’re working with Reiki and chakras. You can see the colours needed and you can find the opposite. This one tells you in which other chakra you should work to heal and connect.

Example:

You see (or: feel / smell / know etc) that the throat chakra (blue) needs attention. The complementary colour to blue is orange. The orange coloured chakra – the 2nd one – is working together with the blue one / 5th one.

Example:

You see (or: feel / smell / know etc) The third chakra. It is full. There are yellow rays coming out of it. You balance it by connecting to the indigo coloured chakra – the one where your third eye lives. 

Meditation for YOU! I will send it to you as a MP3. 

Saying hello in a different way!

If you use a wonderful hand cream or oil, it is possible to find contact with yourself (or someone else)  on a deep physical level. You start by rubbing the hands of the other – smooth, easy, light, in a subtle way. So you go easy, and you take your time! You HAVE zillion tons of time for YOU. Yes. Exact. 

When you finished this, you make a little bowl with your hands. You make connection with your heart, and then you ask your client to take place in this little wonderful bowl made by your hands.

It is nice and easy to invite your client to relax take a seat and / or place him or her in a imaginary bed. And then you can start your treatment.

What I wanted you to learn this lesson…

Reiki and Intuition are very very well suited of the creative and magic language of dreams and art and culture. You can and may use all visuals, images, symbols, stones, flowers – in short – everything which comes to you and shows you in the material world – for your healing sessions. Use the way Reiki shows you you, let your creativity flow and make your own material!
