Hello Friends, Family, Students, Clients, and Newcomers. I am excited to share February Healing Light Newsletter with you. It is my goal to assist you with self empowering knowledge, inspiration, and new opportunities! So, THANK YOU for opening this email and may your month of February be filled with love and healing light!
New Opportunities!
Mark your calendars now for upcoming events in March that will give you opportunities for spiritual growth, self-improvement, better physical health, and mental/emotional support.
March 13th, I will be teaching Chakra Class 101. Your Chakra System is a part of your anatomy, just like you have your muscular system, your digestive system, circulatory system, and so forth. Scientifically proven to exist, your 7 main Chakras are located from the bottom of your spine to the top of your head. Each governs particular body parts and organs, particular parts of your personality, as well as your psychological and emotional make-up. Tuition is $135 and includes a 50 page binder full of Chakra info and worksheets. PLUS you will receive a beautifully illustrated 142 page Chakra book! Class details are listed at www.HealingLTC.com
March 19-20, this class changed my life 13 years ago! Join me for 2 days of healing and rejuvenating in Reiki I/II. No experience necessary! All persons ages 14 and over are welcome. After learning Reiki my purpose in life became clearer and my spiritual path was illuminated. The high frequency of Reiki energy assisted me to break up and release the blocks that were causing me to stumble and get confused. I invite you to discover for your-self how the healing benefits of Reiki can assist you and perhaps your loved ones. I also invite you to read “Reiki and My Healing Quest” which is published on my website under Articles. I take only 12 students per class in order to create an environment that is cozy and safe for learning, healing, and growing.
This class offers continuing education credits to Nurses and Massage Therapists due to the fact that I am a nationally certified Reiki Master Teacher with the International Center for Reiki Training.
March 21st is a fun, powerful 1 day ART Class, and “no”, I am not artistic and I am not teaching painting! This is Advanced Reiki Training for students who have already taken Reiki I/II. You will learn how to incorporate the use of crystals and stones with Reiki, you will learn an amazing way to do aura clearing, I will teach you techniques in manifesting goals and resolving life lessons, I will also attune you to the Reiki Master Symbol. More class details are listed on my website. Tuition is $200 and includes your own crystals, healing grids, and class manual that gives exact instruction on all techniques taught during class.
March 26-27 is the class you have all been waiting for! Reiki Drumming I is calling your name! This class is quickly becoming a favorite! You will learn how to combine the sound waves of the drum with the frequency of Reiki to create a profound healing experience! Reiki I/II is a pre-requisite, however NO MUSICAL experience is necessary. You will go home with your own drum and the ability to integrate positive changes, better health and manifestation of your goals through the use of sound therapy.
March 28, take your drumming to the next level in Reiki Drumming II. I have designed this 1 day class specifically for the Chakra System. You will learn how to incorporate your Reiki symbols, your drum, and powerful affirmations to cleanse, balance, and energize your 7 main Chakras. We will also do a group drumming circle that will heal and connect each of us to all of us! Watch for more details to be posted on my website in a few weeks.
“Reality Shifting Project”
This is part 4 of a 7 part series that I am discussing on Chakra Anatomy and how it affects your ability to receive prosperity and abundance. If you are a newcomer to Healing Light Newsletters please see October, November and January newsletters posted on my website for parts 1, 2, 3.
Ok everybody, how did your 3rd Chakra work go last month? Did you clear away the stuck energy of low self esteem, the need to control, and the need for other’s approval? (Just imagine all the abundance that can now flow through this open energy center!)
Did you start a daily exercise routine? Did you pick up any new healthy eating habits? Did you find ways to honor yourself? Did you muster up the courage to stand in your power and be who you really are? ( meaning that you listen to Spirit more often than you listen to Ego Mind.)
I know of somebody who has been working diligently on her 3rd chakra and she has agreed to share one of her experiences. Her name is Mary. Most of us call her Me-Mary. You might recall me mentioning her previously as the person who gave me the lesson in receiving abundance and letting go of the guilt associated with it? This was a huge lesson for me because I realized that guilt was stopping my flow of abundance! My side of this story is written in November newsletter. Here is her side;
“So – as you know, Lisa threw a fit and demanded from her Angels and the Universe that ABUNDANCE show up for her. She was feeling in a space of scarcity to provide for her children and grandchildren while cutting back her full time work schedule to be home with them after school. When I heard this my heart opened up and I knew that I got to show up in a BIG way to assist.
I decided to go to Walmart because I heard Lisa mention that little MarySunshyne (her 3 year old granddaughter) needed socks. I bought a couple dozen pair of socks – all colors, all styles and some with pretty lacey tops. I was feeling so much love for Lisa & MarySunshyne that I didn’t want to stop there. My heart wanted to pick out some cute outfits, pants, tops, dresses, pajamas . . . everything you could think of! But, I went into a space of fear, what if Lisa’s feelings got hurt, what if I went overboard, what if I gave too much, what if I offended Lisa? That was and is the last thing I wanted. So, I settled for just the assortment of socks, I put them in a cute girly gift bag & drove over to Lisa’s.
Lisa was surprised to see me at the door, especially because I had seen her earlier in the day when I got my scheduled Reiki massage. I held up the gift bag and said ‘Surprise, I have a present for MarySunShyne’. Though it was also a gift for Lisa, to assist in lightening a burden that I knew she was feeling.
I felt that her reaction was mixed, grateful but with a feeling of what are you doing, this is too much and maybe even a feeling of embarrassment? For the time being I just pushed those feelings aside because at the same time my own fear and insecurities were taking over. My Ego Mind was taking over! Did I do too much and did I go overboard? I was in a space of fear of Lisa, what if she got upset or offended or worse yet, what if she got pissed off that I was taking action to provide where I saw a need?!
Well – I stayed in this space with my fears and insecurities for a day or so. Then I decided that this little girl deserved certain things, especially warmer clothing since the weather was starting to change. My Spirit reminded me that inside my heart I knew I had made this commitment to show up and NOW was the time – regardless of how it looked to Lisa! I also realized that I could not control how she might choose to respond to my gift nor did I care anymore!
I found myself at Kid-to-Kid. Well, lets just say, they had everything I could have possibly wanted and more. The selection was perfect and I left with 3 large bags full of clothes, shoes, boots, a winter coat and even a fun ballerina outfit with a pink tutu. The next day I went back to Walmart to get some cute girly underwear and other items to create a complete new wardrobe.
When I got everything home and was organizing it all, I was surprised at how much there was. At this point I was still excited and had fun putting it all together in the boxes. I wrote a quick note to Lisa stating ‘Well, you asked for ABUNDANCE and SURPRISE, it showed up!’ I packed the boxes into my car and drove over to Lisa’s house. When I arrived I could feel the excitement turn into FEAR as my Ego Mind took over again! ‘Okay, do I drop the boxes off and run or do I knock on the door and deliver in person?’ I chose the drop and run option! I left the boxes by the back door and quickly drove out of the drive way. I left Lisa a voicemail that there was a surprise for her at her back door and left it at that.
I was buzzing! The adrenaline was crazy! I was excited that I had followed through with my Spirit and at the same time I was anxious of how Lisa would react to it all. I went home, keeping my phone close to me all day, expecting a call from Lisa at any minute. That was a long day – no call came through? Yes, I went into fear AGAIN!!!! ‘What have I done? She must be angry! She will never talk to me again? I did go overboard, I pushed a boundary and went too far!’ (At least this is what my Ego Mind wanted me to believe.)
In my heart I KNEW I had done exactly what my Spirit told me was the right thing to do. My Spirit knew how much Lisa loved me and my Spirit reminded me that Lisa knew how much I loved her. So, back and forth I went for the rest of the day. What a roller-coaster ride! I finally decided if Lisa was upset with me that she was just going to have to deal with it and get over it!
Later that evening I went online to check my emails and to my delight and excitement I had an email from Lisa! Once again my insecurities crept in! ‘Should I open the email? What if this is where the friendship ends?’ My heart was racing as I finally opened it. I began to cry with love and gratitude that she was so receptive of my gift to her and MarySunshyne. I am most thankful for following direction from my Spirit and for claiming my power enough to trust myself and make it okay to give to a very deserving little girl and her grandma.
I learned quite a bit from this experience and I know my friendship with Lisa became stronger. My level of confidence rose as I embraced the giving part of ABUNDANCE and both Lisa and I continue to grow from this experience as it continues to bring up new lessons in the ripple that was created. Thank you, thank you, thank you to Lisa for being receptive and shifting her-self to accept ABUNDANCE (no matter how it shows up) Thank you to all the angels who assisted us to recognize that all is in DIVINE ORDER. It is my honor to have served and I will continue to serve as I AM THE GIVER.
Love and light to all – NAMASTE!
MeMary”
Thank you Me-Mary for having the courage to share with us! Your 3rd Chakra energy is shining brightly! Also, many thanks to those of you who are keeping in touch with me, you too have amazing light to share!
How perfect that we are moving into the 4th Chakra energy center for the month of February! This is your heart chakra. It is located in the center of your chest, associated colors are a sparkling emerald green, and sometimes a beautiful, soft pink.
Your Heart Chakra is concerned with unconditional love for which you accept another for doing their best. Through this Chakra we learn compassion towards others, and we practice forgiveness. We learn to balance the love of others and the love of ourselves. The basis of unconditional love is acknowledging and loving our dark side as well as the parts we admire. This energy center also opens us up to feel true passion, a burning sensation in our heart that inspires us to take action that will bring us ultimate joy! A cleansed heart chakra will give you the opportunity to offer your heart and soul in relationships without expectations!
hand hearts
Characteristics of when the 4th Chakra is out of balance could be: co-dependency, feeling unworthy to receive love, feeling possessive, overly dramatic, self-pity, being out of touch with feelings, numbness to pain as well as pleasure, stuck in un-forgiveness, having a lack of passion as well as compassion, upper back pain, heart problems, breast cancer, hypertension, asthma, high blood pressure etc. Uuggh! None of these characteristics sound very fun…………….so lets do some cleansing!
1. Crystal Therapy for cleansing and loving your 4th Chakra:
The specific crystals used are Rose Quartz, Green Jade, Green Calcite, and Watermelon Tourmaline. Find a beautiful silk pouch that you can hang around your neck carrying one or more of these stones over your heart. Also place into the pouch a written affirmation that could say “I now cleanse and release stuck energy that represents old hurts and suppressed feelings.”
2. Create a Forgiveness List. Write down the names of people whom you are still holding grudges against.(remember to write your own name) Light a beautiful pink candle, or perhaps green, then burn your list as you repeat out loud “I now cleanse all un-forgiveness towards these people as I release their names into the light to be healed completely.” Give yourself permission to forgive. Un-forgiveness is like swallowing poison and expecting somebody else to die!! Forgiveness is something you do for yourself – not the other person. It gets it off our chest, your lungs and your heart. It is a huge, bold choice for healing yourself and opening yourself up to an abundance of love. Remember that the first person who deserves forgiveness is YOURSELF!
After cleansing, it is time to re-charge and balance;
1. The essential oils that resonate with and energize your Heart Chakra are: Rose, Bergamot, and Melissa. Simply put two or three drops in the palms of your hands and put up to your nose and breathe in fully.
2. Find out what your passions are? Find a passion that feeds your heart. Be willing to take risks or leaps of faith. Most people don’t even know what passions they have! I ask this question a lot to my clients, and I very rarely get a passionate answer. Passions activate and expand your Heart Chakra. To passion firefurther explore what your passions are, I recommend that you look back into your childhood…what did you love to do? What did you daydream about? Also, look into your future? What do you see yourself doing and where are you? Energize your Heart Chakra and create a list of passions!
3. Remember that you need all emotional nutrients to be healthy. That includes but is not limited to love, anger, joy, hurt, sadness, grief, etc. Do not become stuck on just one emotion, balance your heart chakra by allowing yourself to feel all them! For example, people with hardening of the arteries and heart diseases are usually stuck on the emotions of hostility and anger. FYI to all the women reading this – studies show that the number one killer of women in this country is heart disease. I challenge each of us women to be aware of, and to feel the anger that we might be holding onto in our Heart Chakras. Recommended reading “Feelings Buried Alive never Die”.
I would like to leave you with an affirmation that you can use to energize your heart chakra ………….
“I am now sending love to everyone I know with no strings attached and without expectations. I am compassionate and I show this to everyone I meet. I am willing to breathe deeply and allow the breath of life to enter my lungs. I am full of passion as I open my heart to receive the Universal flow of prosperity and abundance.
And So It Is! Thank You Mother/Father God for my many blessings!”
