Opening And Closing Yourself To Reiki
I hope you are all having a great holiday weekend (that’s if you’re in the UK – of course)… 
As it’s a public holiday here and, as always on a Bank Holiday, it’s raining – but not to worry as I’m sure there will be a Bond movie on later… (another UK time honoured tradition) ha ha ha!!!
Okay, enough already, let’s get on – this week I thought I’d answer a question that was recently sent in…
But please do understand, I can only give you the way that works for me and I encourage you all to be more playful with your Reiki and find out exactly what works for you.
And, incidentally, I’ve found that this method works very well for me in my psychic work too.
Here’s the Question…
Q… How can I do a quick reiki healing, without having to take so much time to open myself up to Reiki and then close down again.
A… Just open up once daily and don’t ever bother closing!
That’s what I do – because doing it that way means I’m always ‘Ever Ready Eddie’ as it were
For years now I have only ever ‘opened myself up to divine love and wisdom’…
And, for years I’ve never closed myself down…
Simply because I want to be open 24/7 to divine love and wisdom!!!
Yes, I can hear the squeals of disbelief from some of you…
But just think about it – how can I even think of closing down something that is so much an integral part of me?
So as soon as I even think, I might think of thinking of Reiki, I’m up and running
And, as I say, why switch off such a good thing?
Just keep it flowing.
Now, that works for me… so I simply suggest you give it a try and see if it works for you.
Simple techniques give powerful results…
…which is why I highly recommend this book from John Harricharan
Remember, you are the power behind the ritual.
Yes, I’ve read the same things you’ve probably read about closing yourself down – but I take no notice
I simply don’t think that way.
I am open to divine love and wisdom at all times… that’s it.
The more I am open to divine love and wisdom the less room I have for any negative rubbish.
You see, there is only ‘one’ energy… therefore it is me and I am it… yes?
The negative thoughts and feelings that might ‘come in’ are only in my head so… as I am only open to divine love and wisdom… or that better, higher, more thingy, part of me… the God, Goddess bit…
Nothing ‘comes in’ unless I allow it… full stop
Again I repeat – I am only open to divine love and wisdom, so…
…where is the room or need for non divine love or non divine wisdom?
If you get my drift…
But it has to be what works for you.
Now think again… there is only one energy…
…you are it and it is you…
Therefore you are the Reiki and Reiki is you…
You do not have to switch it on or off – because IT is YOU.
Simply focus your intention…
And remember, the symbols are just symbols… they have NO POWER other than that which YOU give them.
The same as your opening and closing rituals…
YOU are the POWER not the symbol or the ritual.
They are simply tools to help you focus your intention.
So have a play at just ‘doing the Reiki’.
State “I call upon the Reiki energy now” and place your hands with the intention that the Reiki flows and see what happens
As you place your hands in position, imagine a power symbol being squashed like a bath sponge between your palm and the person.
Now, totally BE the Reiki energy… remember it is you and you are it.
Breathe in and relax…
Just ‘be’ there, right there, connected, blending, dissolved in each others energy.
When you feel ready to disconnect… see the power symbol rise like sponge cake under your palms and then release your hands.
Draw out a power symbol over the person and seal the process with divine love and wisdom… done
But please don’t worry – for as long as you need the rituals and the symbols they are there for you.
Just know that one day… you will simply BE you… and the perception of your projected energy being expressed is the particular aspect you now call Reiki.
The more you allow yourself to BE you, simply YOU, the more powerful dynamic, clear, bright and true your Reiki energy wil BE.
For you are one and the same… it is simply an aspect of your energy which you can demonstrate and use.
Perfect
Enjoy your weekend.
