The 7 Energy Center of Reiki Part-7 : Inner Connection

You've made it to the top, well done.

From up here you have a great vantage point and can really see for miles.

Up here, of course, is the crown chakra - right on the top of your head - and it resonates to the color white. (Violet and gold too, at times). But we prefer white, as it is symbolic of all the colors.

To energize this chakra, as with the sixth, eat all colors of the spectrum type foods... preferably raw and with mostly 70% water content.

Now, as you are aware, we are a three-part being...

Body, mind and spirit.

Think of the body as representing happiness - the mind as representing joy and the spirit as representing peace.

Inner happiness comes when you meet the needs of your physical self... and it radiates outwards.

Inner joy comes when you meet the wants of your emotional self... and it radiates outwards.

Inner peace comes when you meet the desires of your spiritual self... when you follow the nature of who you are... and this radiates outwards too.

Bring all these aspects of yourself together and you can experience a state of blissful contentment...

And Reiki is tremendously helpful here.

Reiki makes you more of who you already are, and as you will come to understand... less, really is more.

As you expand, through Reiki, parts of you drop away - they are no longer important to you.

Suddenly this huge YOU is standing there, in all your glory.

You feel serene and confident... you don't have to do anything - you simply are.

Everything becomes pleasurable and fun, because you choose it, and you are now fully aware of this...

You now know, that it is you who creates your reality. It is you - and no one else - who makes what happens happen.

Life is enjoyable.

Even the hard bits are more fun, because you no longer take things personally... you don't take it all so much to heart, anymore.

Your life is now freer, less cluttered.

You have begun to understand that life is glorious, just the way it is...

That everybody is where they are at, right now, because - consciously or unconsciously - they chose to be there. In that very place, in that very position.

Everything is perfect - it can't be any other way.

Your peaceful serenity will be like a beacon to others. And you will often find - more and more - that people are drawn to you in the midst of their own struggles.

From your vantage point, you may well be able to see the bigger picture for them. And...

You'll find you can support and guide them, if necessary, but without having to get so emotionally involved.

You can see, quite clearly - and respect - that it is the person's own choices and decisions that have brought them to this point - and you know it is exactly right for them.

At level seven, you are deeply connected to the divine. You realise that this is what physical life is all about...

The cut and the thrust.

You know that this is where everyone wants to be... in the thick of it... up to their elbows.

There are no accidents.

If they had really wanted to be leading a different life - then they would be leading it.

Everyone is free to choose - only most people don't know it.

Chikara-Reiki-Do, the name we have given to the whole body system of Reiki we have developed, is about choosing total freedom - a lifestyle that suits you.

By choosing to love, honor and respect the spirit and nature of who you are - you can redefine your life.

With the right knowledge you can open any door.

With the right knowledge, you can have a happy, healthy body.

With the right knowledge, you can have a positive mental attitude, full of creative ideas.

With the right knowledge, your spirit will soar peacefully.

There is nothing to learn... all the knowledge is inside you right now. You just have to remember it - that's all.

Using Chikara-Reiki-Do as a tool for your expansion is simple and straight forward.

In its simplicity lies its power... no fluff... no clutter.

We hope you have enjoyed this short mini-course and that maybe it has opened a door within you... the door to remembering who you are.

If we never speak with you again, take our best wishes with you, along with the sincere hope that you accomplish all of your dreams... and fulfill your heart's desire.

God Bless You

The 7 Energy Center of Reiki Part-6 : Intuition and Knowing

Previously we have talked about the physical level of life, the material - the down there - the down below kind of stuff.

Now we enter the realms of the spiritual.

Level six is our intuitive, knowing, focussing center. Our all seeing, panoramic vision, surround sound, home entertainment center.

It's positioned in the middle of our brains... but most people refer to this center as the third-eye chakra and place it on the center of your forehead - just up and between your eyes.

This, of course, is only a symbolic position, but you'll often see it portrayed like this in many books.

And the color...?

It resonates to that of royal blue/purple.

Eating foods from all colors of the spectrum are good, but preferably high water content - at least 70% - and mostly raw.

Okay then, let's look a little deeper...

There is a balance that must be acheived here.

A mix between internal and external.

The start of actually beginning to see what has always been there, though you never noticed it before...

Reading the energy, seeing the aura, sensing the person, place, thing etc.

You have always absorbed this sort of energy subconsciously, but now with Reiki, you can bring it more to the fore - consciously.

But first you need a bit of peace and quiet, and this may take some practice.

Many wise people have said some quite... well, er, wise things.

For example - less is more. Look before you leap. See all, hear all and say nowt (English slang for nothing). All action stems from non-action etc.

And we're going to practice some of these wise things now, to gain focus and inner silence.

    Rule 1. Shut up. Shhh, not a word - it's not necessary.
    Rule 2. Listen. Shhh, not a word, be quiet - it comes as a whisper.
    Rule 3. Slow down. Shhh, not a word. Right now there is nothing else you need ‘to do’. Just ‘be’ here, now.
    Rule 4. Observe. Shhh, be silent.

Now, look again.

See the colors, movements, shadows, mannerisms, spaces, time, grass grow.

Hear the noise, silence, whispers on the wind, emotion on the breath, your inner voice...

Now you are connecting - the inner with the outer.

If you are a westerner you probably have trouble sitting still. But just taking time out to daydream is great.

When we suggest meditation to people we usually say - start your day just ten minutes earlier than anyone else gets up.

Make yourself a cup of tea or coffee and just sit in quiet contemplation.

Ponder your thoughts, collect your thoughts, let your thoughts just wander.

Eventually you can increase the time you spend alone in this way to half an hour and then maybe even a full hour.

It will be time well spent...

For your head will begin to empty itself of unnecessary thoughts.

And using the Tibetan Raku Reiki symbol and running the energy - just for you - is a beautiful way to start the day. As you do this you could also carry out a self-healing or send energy to your goals. Just...

Allow your imagination to expand your boundaries.

You've de-cluttered your life, now you're de-cluttering your mind.

It helps to do it daily, consciously with Reiki, until it becomes a habit.

So, where are we...

You've energized almost all your centers, but have you felt that the more energy you have, the slower you go? Have you also noticed that the less you do the more gets done?

What was so important to you before, is now much less so.

You'll be able to focus your intention much more sharply without distractions...

You'll do what you choose to do, because it feels right for you. You'll feel the power of your intention. You'll be quiet enough to sense any ‘discomfort’ with your decision, and wise enough to change course if necessary.

Touching base with meditation is great to keep you on course with your original intention, and the nature of who YOU are. But please, just touch base...

Remember you are a spiritual being already... fully enlightened, and already divine.

So, don't spend all your time in meditation trying to become what you already are...

Get out and enjoy life physically. It is, after all, why you are here.

If you want to discover more of your latent abilities, run the Reiki instead...

The more regularly you practice running the Reiki, just for you, the more quickly your psychic abilities will develop.

The more you trust yourself and your feelings, the stronger they will become. You will be able to step-up your awareness instantly.

There is so much to be said at this level but it loses most of its meaning in the saying - so we're not going to say any more...

Check it out yourself - practice, practice, practice - playfully of course, and see what happens. So...

Have fun, chill out and then have some more fun.

And we'll see you again next time with your final part - part seven, the part that tops it all off... literally.

You'll receive it tomorrow, so you'd better hurry up and attune yourself to Reiki.

Want to find out how...

Become a Reiki Master now

You've nothing to lose but your ordinary life.

God Bless You

The 7 Energy Center of Reiki Part-5 : Communication and Expression

It's the fifth chakra and it resonates to the color blue...

A beautiful turquoise or sky blue. So just looking at a clear blue sky will help energise it.

Unfortunately here in the UK, where we're based, the skies aren't blue very often. So if your country is similar, try wearing a turquoise scarf around your neck.

Now, as there aren't many sky blue foods around either - well, not one's which are healthy for you at least - this avenue of energizing the chakra is out too...

Could this be why there's so much lack of communication in the world today? Too few ways of energizing this chakra?

Just a thought... but perhaps one to bear in mind.

Anyway, as you'll probably recall from reading the end of part 4, this chakra lies in your throat region - roughly in the area of your larynx.

So, you can quite easily see why it's known as the chakra of communication and expression, can't you?

And the fact that communication is the buzz word of the 21st century, is no accident either. For this is, energetically speaking, the level where the world is at right now.

The world's own evolution is in its fifth chakra too.

But even though we are in this age of communication, not many people really know how to do it yet.

Information is shoved indiscriminately down our throats, all day long, so to speak. TV, radio, computers, books, newspapers, magazines, billboards etc.

Everybody and everything is yatter, yatter, yatter... and what happens - nothing - you just switch off.

It gets like you're walking around in ear muffs and blinkers. Numbed to the world, not hearing or seeing anything. Next thing you know they turn up the volume...

Now you can't even hear yourself think either.

All in all, not a lot of communication going on, is there? We have to get rid of all this extraneous noise.

Communication and expression is a two way thing.

May we suggest that, at least for a little while, you don't read newspapers or magazines and don't watch TV at all.

What will you do instead? Especially when you're commuting to work, or taking a break?

Notice the change of the seasons - the current fashions - the birds flying by - how rain runs down in rivulets down the window - and then... talk to the people around you.

You could even try doing something outrageous to complete strangers... smile.

Not a grimmacing, it's too early to smile type smile either. Make it a genuine smile, a real hello smile.

Trust us. This is not as dangerous as it sounds.

Yes, we know. If you listen to the news and read the papers, all those other people out there are murderers, muggers, rapists, perverts, terrorists, burglars and bandits etc.

We learn to live in fear of each other.

Believe it or not though, most people are just normal, ordinary, salt of the earth, decent folk like you.

There is a saying - ‘Smile and the world smiles with you’, and it's so true. A smile is a real blessing to people.

In this day and age too many people seem to walk around with armor on. Almost needing credit checks and police protection before they can actually feel safe enough to talk to someone.

Well, we don't.

A stranger is a new friend in the making to us. We smile and actually talk with people we don't know, yes really.

We trust our instincts and intuitions.

Sure, some people are not to our liking. We don't vibrate at the same level... we're not on the same wave length, as it were.

But that's not to say that a few moments quiet conversation won't be helpful to us all.

You see, the throat center is where we discover how to ‘speak our truth’, but most of it is silent communication. In the stillness we are not only able to hear other people, but ourselves too.

The throat is between the head and the heart - between heaven and earth.

The 3rd eye and crown chakras are our spiritual centers - the above.

Our other five centers are our physical centers - the below.

Our throat is the meeting point, where we can speak out our inner thoughts... blend the inner and the outer... the above with the below.

Heaven with Earth.

When someone talks, listen to the words and also the silences. What was not said is important too.

Feel the emotion of what was said - what feeling did it provoke in you? What response?

Trust your gut feeling... that still small voice inside of you.

Less is definitely more when it comes to talking and expressing yourself.

This is true communication.

Say what you mean, and mean what you say. Speak only when you have something to say.

Can Reiki help here?

It can most certainly help with any anxiety you may have to be heard - to be taken notice of - to have your opinion count.

Try this.

Take a small blank card, like a business card, and write the word ‘smile’ on one side. On the other side draw the Usui Reiki Master symbol, for the fifth chakra.

Keep it to hand all day long.

When someone addresses you - smile - be as silent as you can.

How?

Make all the right noises - oh, ahh, mmmm... nod your head knowingly, smile, frown, raise your eyebrows etc.

But continue to listen, yes, to listen... not hear. Everyone hears but few really listen - you be an exception.

If you have to make a reply, think carefully - your words have power - words are thoughts made manifest.

So, hold your card and silently chant the symbols name three times - and when you speak, speak your truth - feel your power - own your power.

Communicate your truth - say what you mean and mean what you say.

Now, try giving up reading newspapers and watching TV for good.

Instead, communicate with your world, inside and out. But always be clear in what you are saying, don't ever be vague.

God Bless You

The 7 Energy Center of Reiki Part-4 : Love and Relationships

Let's plunge straight into the heart of the matter, for level 4 corresponds to the heart chakra.

Now, this center doesn't occupy the same position as your physical heart, as you've probably already guessed. No, it's more central.

So, as a rough guide, find your breast bone... got it? Well, your heart chakra lies about half way down, but not on the surface, of course, it's in the center mass of your body...

As, indeed, are all your energy centers, just in case you're wondering.

Okay then, let's get onto the color, it's green, a beautiful emerald, fresh green, spring grass color.

Which makes it, perhaps, the easiest center to energise - for all you have to do is just walk in nature, and see all the greens...

Yes, that's right, see the greens. Not look at the greens, actually see them. Usually people just look at nature, but without seeing it anymore. So really...

See the grass, the hills, the plants, the trees.

Then try... lying face down on your lawn, tickling your toes in the grass, growing fresh herbs, keeping pot plants etc, and also...

Wearing the color itself.

Eating your greens works wonders too. No, don't wrinkle your nose, they really are good for you, honest. They resonate at just the right frequency.

Right then, have you implemented any of the suggestions made in the first 3 parts of this mini-course yet?

If you have, you may have found that you're beginning to feel a little bit 'full of yourself'. And this is quite alright...

Yes, really - it's quite alright - and it's something that should definitely be encouraged.

Why?

Because you're slowly beginning to fill up with love. And as love is what you actually consist of... this kind of - ‘becoming full of yourself’ - is absolute perfection...

    Now...

    As a tiny aside here - we rather like acronyms. And we have two for the word love.

    Why two?

    Because love is so vitally important. It really, really is - all there is.

    Here they are:

        Life's
        Only
        Valuable
        Experience

    OR

        Life's
        Only
        Valid
        Expression

And with this filling up comes a desire to share. You begin to overflow.

We started at the beginning (part-1) with the ‘I’ now it's evolving into ‘we’.

Are you noticing a soft smile is often on your face? Are you feeling content yet... like a cat with the cream? Your life may be getting clearer, happier and more focussed...

If you've been following the first three steps, that is.

If you haven't, that's quite okay too, there's no hurry. Take your time... move at your own pace.

In fact to have made the kind of jumps we have been discussing, in the few days of this course, would be highly unusual.

Please allow us this ‘artistic license’ so we can get all the parts of the course to you, in a realistic time frame.

Just remember...

Your mini-course lasts 12 days - your growth lasts a lifetime. Keep all seven parts safe, and refer to them when you feel you are ready.

Okay, let's continue

What can you do with all this loving energy?

You need to share, care and relate to others. Touch people with your heart, for when you do...

You'll notice that people become spontaneously drawn to you - chatting at the shops, neighbors wanting to talk with you, animals coming over for a stroke...

Now, this does not mean that life goes all slushy - all huggy, huggy, kissy, kissy - no, no no...

It means you are confident, happy, focussed and serene...

Radiating a peaceful, loving, uplifting energy.

Shit may still happen of course, but you will react differently...

You'll recognise it's more and more the case that it's “shift” that is happening.

Instead of just reacting to what happens in your life - you will now begin to respond...

You'll be able to stand back and think to yourself, ‘What would be the loving thing to do right now, for me and for everyone else’.

If a situation is handled with love, the outcome will be for everyone's highest good.

Using the Tibetan Reiki Master symbol will help to transcend and transmute any negativity around the situation.

It will keep you balanced, focussed and confident.

At this level you will also feel more in tune with the other persons heart and you will just know what to do...

So, trust yourself.

Now, opening up your heart center can feel scary at times, as if you are wide open to attack - and indeed you can be - for a little while...

But don't worry, you can protect yourself with Reiki.

Phew, that's a relief, what do I do?

Simply call upon the Reiki energy to fill you and surround you with love and protection - for your highest good and the highest good of all concerned.

What else can you do? Forgive... forgive?

Yes, forgive. Forgive anyone and everyone who wishes you any ill will... imagined or otherwise.

Forgiveness is a kindness we do for ourselves, for in this forgiveness you will see the struggle in others. And then you can bless them.

Bless them for coming into your life, for there are no accidents. They are in your life because you wanted them to be there...

Why?

So you can use them as a mirror. A mirror to see, how you don't want to be (how poetical).

No, it's not being judgemental or ‘better than’. It's merely an observation, and you'll find more and more that...

As you begin to understand this, you won't need so much of it in your life anymore. Life will become more tranquil.

However, initially, you may find that...

Energizing the heart chakra can bring up lots of emotional stuff. And we do mean lots.

But that's okay too. Allow it to come up and out. Don't push it back down again. Express it.

How?

If you need to grieve - grieve. If you need to feel hurt - feel hurt. If you need to get angry - get angry.

But do it appropriately. Don't allow your repressed anger to come up and then use it to hurt someone innocent. Go somewhere private, get a stick and beat the heck out of a cushion. Let all that anger, hurt, shame, blame etc, come pouring out and let it go.

Emotion is just energy in motion... allow it to move. Don't bottle it up tight.

Use the Reiki to continually balance yourself and turn any of your negative emotions into positive ones.

Be gentle and loving with yourself.

It can be both rough and beautiful, sunshine and rain, laughter and tears, but most of all...

It will be, just as it should be.

Okay then, that's enough for today. Next time we'll move into the area of communication - your throat. You'll get it tomorrow.

God Bless You

The 7 Energy Center of Reiki Part-3 : Giving and Receiving

And this chakra, your third level, resonates to the color yellow.

Now, as with your first and second chakras, this center can also be energised with color. So wearing yellow is great. Not a dull yellow like mustard but a nice vibrant sunshine yellow...

In fact allowing the sun itself to shine on this area is extremely beneficial.

Yes, and you're probably ahead of us by now, yellow foods are good too. Yellow peppers, lemons, bananas, grapefruit, sweetcorn etc.

Where is this chakra? Well...

Once again we're going to be general in our indications of where it lies... and this is quite deliberate. We don't want you getting unnecessarily caught up in the need to be precise.

For, you see...

These energy centers are not really a part of the physical body. They exist only in the etheric... precision, therefore, is not required.

Your intention to connect with them, is all that is necessary.

However, as a rough guide. Make a fist with your thumb sticking straight out across the top of your index finger. Lay your clenched fist flat against you chest and allow the top of your thumb to nestle in the notch at the base of your breast bone. The body of your fist is now in the general area.

Okay then, this third chakra is your gathering center which responds to the Distance symbol. And...

If you've ever had a shock - perhaps being told a close relative has suddenly died or you've been witness to an accident - you'll know exactly where it is...

Because on hearing the news or seeing the trauma, it's like a great canon ball thuds right into this area, simultaneously taking the wind right out of you, and flooding your system with emotion.

Have you ever experienced this?

If you have, you won't need telling what a powerful receiver of energy this third chakra is... you'll already know. But it is not just a receiver it's also a grand transmitter of energy too.

So, balance here is essential... for as you give, so you really do receive... and sometimes very quickly.

Understanding the characteristics of this chakra then, allows you to see, quite clearly, how important it is to nurture the first two of your seven energy centers.

Because if you haven't given to yourself first, then you won't have anything to give to others...

The pot will be empty. So...

You must practice giving to number one - YOU - first.

Now don't go getting all funny on us here. We don't want you thinking... "No this isn't right... it's better to give, than to receive"...

For how can it be? It has to be equally good to do both.

If someone gives you a gift and you say, “Oh no, I couldn't possibly accept”, and then refuse to take it. How do you think the giver of the gift feels?

It's very limiting if you live only to give and not receive. Where on earth's the balance in this way of being?

There is none. And you have to have balance in all things.

So let's take a look at what you are giving out in your life right now... let's look in the magic mirror.

Because - YOU - will be reflected back in everything that surrounds you in your world today.

That's right. Everything you see when you open your eyes, is YOU.

You'll see what you really think of yourself... what you really feel you deserve... what you really feel you are worth.

If you've settled for a job that doesn't challenge and motivate you - perhaps it's just pulling a lever all day - but it pays the rent.

Then that's exactly what life will reflect back to you...

A life that doesn't stretch you - bores you to death - in a house that's adequate - but isn't really what you want. Surrounded, most likely, with mediocre friends who don't challenge or stretch you either.

Now remember -

You are living the life you've got right now, because you are the one who chose it... No one else did.

It must, therefore, be exactly as you want it to be.

So, if you're now feeling it isn't... then perhaps it's time to change it. Yes, we know it may not be easy, but it is simple.

Start by deciding what you really, really want from life...

Do you want to receive more money?... then give more money to others. Do you want more love in your life?... then decide to give more love to others. Do you want more happiness in your life?... then give more happiness to others.

Now, as we just said... we know it isn't easy... but it is simple. Simply choose and decide to give to receive. Then -

Lie or sit comfortably and, activating your palms with the Distance Reiki symbol, place one had over the other on your third chakra and run the energy.

Intend to give more - intend to receive more... and so it will be.

Can you see how it works yet?

Everything, everything, EVERYTHING reflects back to you what you give out through your feelings.

If you are putting out the feelings of being a failure, guess what's going to be reflected back to you?

On the other hand if you are feeling successful... what's going to come back?

You've got it - success, success, SUCCESS.

It can be no other way. Cause and effect - whatever you put out, comes back to you... with interest added on.

So please look into your magic mirror... your magic mirror called LIFE.

Yes, really. Do it now.

Check it out, check it all out... your life, your work, your income, your home, your relationships, vacations, car, clothes, kids.

It's a true reflection of how you feel about yourself right now... the outer reflects the inner.

Is this reflection of your life truly the one you want it to be? Only you know the answer, and you must remember...

You can have, be and do anything you choose in life... anything.

So don't settle for second best, choose wisely...

And use Reiki. It makes you more of who you are.

God Bless You

The 7 Energy Center of Reiki Part-2 : Pleasure, Fun and Creativity

Level two resonates to the color orange and relates to the reproductive organs. Now... Chakras one and two are constantly being mixed up with each other. And the exact positioning of each one depends entirely on the school of thought you are listening to at the time...
But, for us, the exact positioning is quite unimportant. Your intention is the only important thing. If you are intending to run the Reiki energy through your first Chakra (coccyx, rectal area)...
Then that is where the energy will flow.
If you are intending to run the energy through your second Chakra (genital area) - then that also - is where it will flow.
Your intention rules... always and all ways.
Energizing this second chakra, is similar to that of your first, only this time you use the color orange. Orange underwear, orange trousers, orange skirt etc.
And you can also eat foods of this color... carrots, oranges, orange peppers and the like.
Now, as for the Reiki... Again, you can use the same exercise as with your first chakra. So...
Lie or sit, and rest your hands low down on your abdomen or, if you find it comfortable enough, over your genital area itself.
Activate the Mental and Emotional symbol and simply allow the energy to run for as long as you want or need...
You'll know when you've had enough because you'll probably find yourself getting fidgety.
Of course, if you plan to run the energy at night before sleeping, it's quite okay to just carry on running it until you drift off into dreamland.
So, how will this affect you..?
Plenty, we hope. For allowing as much pleasure and fun into your life should be of paramount importance. And this pleasure and fun should most definitely underpin all your creative endeavours.
If you are a woman... the womb is the center of your creativity, the seat of your power. If you are not using this energy internally - as in creating babies - you need to be expressing it externally - as in...
Writing, drawing, painting, interior designing, flower arranging... anything - just being creatively creative will keep the energy flowing strongly and smoothly.
Why would you want to do this?
Because if you don't allow your creative energy to flow it can become blocked or out of balance, and this can lead to problems.
What kind of problems?
Well, blocked creative expression can lead to frequent headaches, foggy thinking, depression, problems with your womb and even vision disturbances (as in not being able to see a clear path ahead) etc.
There are other ways these imbalances can show up, of course, but we think that's enough for you to get the flavor of what we mean.
If you're a man... the same applies. You need to be creative too...
Maybe not with the flower arranging perhaps... but then again... well, who knows.
A man who is confident in himself exudes a powerful, sensual energy. He is the mature male.
A woman who is confident in herself is like a ship in full sail - magnificent, graceful, sensual, magic.
And it all stems from allowing the creative energy to flow. Which also includes, by the way, the most powerful and fundamental of your creative energies... sexual expression. Give yourself full permission to experience and deeply enjoy everything about this natural, creative and wholly, satisfying energy.
Okay then...
So what else can Reiki do to help generate this feeling of balance and the 'at oneness with life' feeling?
Well, at this level we need to center on clearing away those things, situations and people that throw us out of balance...
For instance, the job that's not right, the relationship that only ‘sort of’ works, the friends that aren't really...
In fact clear out anything and everything in your life which does not bring you fun, pleasure and enjoyment.
There is no easy way to do this ‘de-cluttering’ of your life. But Reiki will certainly help you to choose what is right for you. It will help guide you towards that which is your hearts desire. So by...
Using the appropriate Reiki symbol (see page 159 of our book Radical Reiki - Radical Life if you don't know what this is) whilst running the energy through your second chakra, you will begin to bring this understanding to you. It'll help you see clearly what you really want without getting too emotionally roller-coastered in the process.
The more fun, pleasure and creativity there is in your life the more powerful and free you feel...
The lighter your thoughts, the more clarity of vision you have.
In part one of this short course we asked you to begin trusting in yourself. So, let's begin trusting some more here...
Let's trust that you know what's right for you - and that only you know what's right.
Then you'll begin living the life you chose - pleasurably, creatively and with an immense amount of fun.

The 7 Energy Center of Reiki Part-1 : Security and Safety

Whatever it is in life, it's always best to start in at the very beginning. That way you gain the most out of every single event.

Now, not only is this true for almost everything you'll come across in life, but it's doubly true with Reiki.
So, let's...

Start in on the ground floor level and work our way up to a greater understanding of... life, the universe and all who sail in her.

Okay then, you probably already know, and have maybe even experienced first hand yourself, that :-
You are, indeed, a three-part being (body, mind and spirit) and all the parts are inter-connected. You cannot touch on one level without touching and affecting the other levels too.

Now, bearing this in mind, we are going to try and simplify things - starting at the bottom - literally.
The area at the base of the spine, which includes the rectal area, is the rough position of your 1st Chakra... and it resonates to the color red.

You can do a couple of practical things to energise this area. like wearing red underwear; eating red foods like tomatoes, red peppers, radishes, beetroot etc. And you can also...
Use your Reiki.

Simply lie in bed at night and activate the Power symbol on both of your palms. Rest your hands on your abdomen, and beam the energy through to the base of your spine.

You could also place both hands, palm up, in the area of your coccyx so that you are actually lying on them. But you'll probably find this becomes too uncomfortable after only a few minutes...
So, as the whole thing is to be comfortable enough to drift off to sleep whilst allowing the energy to run - the first method is probably the best one to adopt.

How will you feel when you wake up?

More grounded, relaxed and happy. Why?

Because this area is all to do with feelings of safety and security - no matter what the actual words safety and security may personally mean to you.

For you, it may mean something simple like having lots of food in the cupboard in case of disaster. Or it may be more complex like having several million dollars in the bank.

It really doesn't matter. For you see...
When you relax and trust the universe to take care of you, it no longer becomes such a scary place to be.
You begin to realise that just for today - you have a roof over your head, food on the table and a couple of dollars in your pocket.

Life is great... all your primary needs are being met.
Eventually you will also begin to realise that you have always managed to provide these things for yourself.
Yes, sometimes it may have just been by the skin of your teeth, but you are still here. You managed it.
And there's no real reason to think this will ever stop.

Running the Reiki energy through this Chakra will help open you up to this understanding...
Allowing you to trust in yourself and the universe.
Any issue in your life that makes you feel insecure can be dealt with by using Reiki. Whether it's:

1. Redundancy
2. Retirement
3. Relationship break up
4. Threat of war
5. Abandonment
6. Supermarket closure
7. Loneliness
8. Natural disasters
9. Pregnancy
10. Falling out with a friend
11. Debt
12. Death of a relative etc. etc. etc.

Sending Reiki through your base chakra, as described above, will help to balance these feelings, any feelings, of insecurity you may have.
Just send Reiki and know the issue will be resolved for your highest good, and the highest good of all concerned...
Then comes the hard part - trust in the outcome.
Even if, right now, a negative solution seems to be presenting itself.
Just continue to trust.
For in a few short weeks you will almost certainly be looking back, thinking, 'If things hadn't happened exactly like they did, it just wouldn't have been right'.
Sometimes, though, when you're in the middle of what seems to be an enormous problem, and you're beginning to doubt yourself...
And feelings of insecurity are rampant. Don't face it alone. Enlist some divine help...
But don't settle for second best, (angels and fairies etc) go right to the top.
Ask God.
Get out your pen and paper and write a letter to God:
Dear God,
I've done all I can do about (whatever the problem is). Will you please do the rest.
Thanks.
Now, draw your Reiki symbols on the letter, put it somewhere safe... and forget about it - the problem we mean.
Because it will soon be sorted.
This method works...
It works by literally and symbolically putting the problem to one side, and gently removing you from the picture.
Ready for another hard part?
Leave it alone.
If you catch yourself worrying - STOP. God is sorting it, and if God can't sort it, it's a pretty poor do. Trust in the outcome...
It'll be for your highest good - because that was what you intended.
So, use your Reiki in this way on all your issues of insecurity, and work on building this solid foundation of trust.
In part-2 we'll move on to the NEXT LEVEL, level 2...
