Sunday evening at the end of a long weekend seemed like the perfect time for friends to gather before heading back into our daily routines.

We all met at The Emory in Ferndale, ordered snacks and drinks and settled in for some deep conversation and coloring. Yes, coloring, with coloring books, crayons, pencils and markers. After all the sharing and admiration of our supplies, we all bowed our heads to color. It was so zen. After a few hours and some amazing art we all clinked glasses and made a vow to so this again soon. "This coloring thing is such a great idea!" I heard several times. "Next time lets bring more light."

Turn this stone into a powerful guardian protector by adding reiki to it. Hold it in your left hand and beam reiki energy into it with your right hand. This will increase this stone's healing and shielding properties. Then wear it or carry it to keep energy vampires from tapping into your aura or chakras.

Place it near your computer TV and microwave to absorb electromagnetic waves. Place around your rooms to absorb negative moods and thoughts.

Wear it while giving a reiki treatment to help keep you grounded. Gain clarity and confidence by putting this amazing stone on your solar plexus and meditating on a problem.

These are just a few of the ways Black Tourmaline and Reiki together can improve your life.

Come see us at the Candle Wick Shoppe we have gorgeous black tourmaline in stock.Sent from my iPhone

Carson Lyons, David Shaw and I were invited to give reiki to the nurses at the Ann Arbor VA hospital. We forgot our music so one of the staff brought us a little CD player and two cd's. Hawaiian music and Caribbean reggae style. They made the reiki fun and now I want a piña Colada.Sent from my iPhone

We are at this amazing Expo this weekend rubbing elbows with top notch healers and metaphycians. Probably some magicians too. Come on out and see what it's all about. Met hotel on Crooks and I-75 in Troy. Bonus music from the 50's and 60's piped through the sound system. Breanna and I are doing karaoke.Sent from my iPhone

How do they do that? This little message hit the nail on the head. Lesson learned. Everything is up for scrutiny and the world is my laboratory.

I am ready... I am ready to embrace love again. I am ready to spread love

again. The kind that floats in the air and settles into the hearts of the

unsettled. I am ready to stand with my community and help that love to grow

- exponentially.



Today with the news of how many people are in the throws of denying human

rights to others I am taken aback and reminded that I am the change that I

wish to see in the world. Gandhi said it and lived it. I am

reminded that through his life, Gandhi saw the beginning seeds of human

rights in his country, he saw the growth of human rights and he saw the

push back from those who stood in fear of those human rights. He then saw

the implementation of those human rights at the end of his life. He was

the change.



I am no where near the level of divinity and social consciousness

of Gandhi, but I am the center of my own little world and I must be the

change - I must be the love.



We are, right now, in this lifetime, experiencing the tipping point of

great change. Those who hold the power are living in fear of loosing

their privilege, of leveling the playing field and finally having to

compete equally. Mirrors are a difficult thing to have thrust upon you,

as they destroy the fantasy you have build up for so long. We are all

looking in uncomfortable mirrors where we are always the good guy.



Human rights are uncomfortable and messy. When you offer them to

everyone, especially those unlike you, it's difficult to wrap your brain

around their life circumstances. When you do not believe as they do, love

as they do or have lived the victimization they did, how can you relate?

How can you create the empathy needed to offer them these rights without

judgement? It is easy to say "Someone needs to do something" or "That's

just not right", but the true power of being the change you wish to see in

the world is to actually do something, or stand up when hate is louder than

love.



I apologize today to all of those people I did not stand up for.

I apologize for all the hate I allowed to pass by me without comment or

push back. I am practicing to get better. I am stepping into the world

of change one foot at a time and I ask that you remind me when I am

retreating.



Because today, I am ready to embrace love again.

David, Carson and Patty visited the residents at Madison Towers to demonstrate Reiki healing. Can we say OMG? They loved it, felt it and wanted more. We had about 23 in attendance. After a short talk just about everyone got 5 minutes of Reiki. We look forward to our next visit. Thanks Sharon Mello for inviting us.Sent from my iPhone

No, it's not my birthday. Nope, I didn't win the lottery. Today is the day I'm teaching senior citizens about Reiki. David and I are heading over to Madison Towers to give a special presentation at their Activities Center.



Sharon Mello called me and said there was interest in alternative healing among her "seniors" and asked if I'd come out and talk to them about Reiki. If all goes well I'm going to offer attunements. Then they can organize a Reiki share and give each other regular Reiki treatments. I'd love to be a fly on the wall for that!

I'm so excited.

Talking about crystals is like talking about wise old friends. I'm always blown away by all the ways crystals help us and heal us. After this class I started using crystals more regularly in my healing practice. It's true, they really made a difference. Plus they make the room sparkle. Adrienne said the room looked like a fairy explosion happened. Poor little tinker bell.Sent from my iPhone

Dorothy Morrison surprised us all with goodies from Ferndale's finest bakeries. It was all to show the employees of Coventry Creations, Type40 Sales and the Candle Wick Shoppe how grateful she to them. Dorothy gave a little speech about our great products, customer service and how much she loves each and every one of us. We love you right back Dorothy! Thank you for the good eats and thank you for being you. We love working with you. Hugs from Coventry Creations, Type40 Sales and Candle Wick Shoppe.Sent from my iPhone

 

More often than not, I've considered a spiritual path one of quiet reflection and lots of begging for healing and enlightenment. Though I had no huge expectations I knew I needed something to anchor me. What that got me was deeper understanding of myself and lots of encouragement from something I can only call the light.

Today I woke up really feeling and seeing that my life is a reflection of my efforts to understand what the hell I'm doing here, alive and breathing. All that goes right and all that goes wrong in my day to day has a direct connection to what I feel and know. How I respond to it is all up to me.

Today I woke up relaxed because I finally realized that the only thing I need to be in control of is me and all that entails. That took my fear down several notches. I became more neutral about the Jazz going on around me and most of all, as my husband said, I've moved from passive to patient. Honestly that has contributed enormously to calming my nervous system.

Today, as I prepare my taxes and later go visit family, I realize it's all my spiritual path and that makes me very happy.
