Adjusting with Reiki
I’ve found that sometimes I need reiki once a month, once a week and even once a day. Right now I’m in the once a day phase. For me that means a big change is coming, and I need to keep myself in balance as it happens. I am so thankful for the preparation and… Continue reading Adjusting with Reiki
Allowing
Allowing has been a challenge for me. I have been called a helicopter mom, and controlling. I’m learning when I get too close in someone’s space by my own reactions. I get annoyed or upset, because it is not going the way I want it to and I am trying to force it. But the… Continue reading Allowing

Planting Seeds
