Learning to Self-Regulate
Anxiety and anger cause the most problems in our body, our mind and our society, so it's no surprise that the Founder of Reiki, Mikao Usui, included them in the Reiki Principles.
Just for today,
Anger not
Worry not
Practice with diligence
Be kind to others and to yourself
Over or underexpressed anger is stored in the liver and includes irritation, frustration and resentment.
As a former people-pleaser, I know only too well how forfeiting my choices slowly builds resentment that eventually comes out in a burst of anger.
Anxiety, worry, overthinking and fear are stored in the kidneys and can be debilitating, even when nothing is happening externally.
Our mind spirals out of control.
This undermines our confidence and limits our ability to fully experience or enjoy life.
LEARNING SELF-REGULATION
We were never taught how to self-regulate, either in the moment or as maintenance, so we keep repeating cycles, feel stuck in our pain and feel we have no control over our emotions.
We might know what we should do, but for some reason that knowledge never becomes action.
PRACTICING SELF-REGULATION
One of my passions is empowering others by teaching them how to regulate their central nervous system.
I guide them through practices I use myself that work brilliantly to calm anger and worry.
Practices that can be used in the moment or as maintenance to build self-awareness.
On my 1 Day Reiki Meditation Retreat, I teach these and other techniques that allow us to actually embody the Reiki Principles and start a daily meditation practice.
We complete our day with a beautiful sound bath to help integrate what we've practiced.
Everyone leaves feeling deeply relaxed, empowered and lighter as the heavy negative emotions we've been holding on to are compassionately released.
ALL ARE WELCOME
I would love everyone to know how to self-regulate so all are welcome - you don't have to know anything about Reiki.
