BRINGING REIKI TO THE CHRISTMAS GATHERING

This time of year is special for a variety of reasons: ancient, old
and new. In addition it's a time of family gatherings, seeing people
you love, relaxing, enjoying life, celebrating, reflecting on the
year ending, new hopes, resolutions, and dreams for the year ahead.

Family time can provide a wonderful opportunity for strengthening
bonds, seeing others in a new light and healing old ground from our
past histories together. One way to enhance special moments is to
bring reiki to them, intuitively sensing when it's right to do so.

I use the following visualisation to bring out the best in people.
I've found this method has enabled people to talk in an amazingly
open, honest and trusting way.

When I use this technique I do so with complete attention, having the
intention of working with unconditional love for those around me to
receive reiki blessings, if their souls wish to, or to reflect it
with ease if it's not wanted at that time.

Everyone works differently but I choose to quietly bring reiki's
loving energy into group gatherings without fuss and without others
knowing.

I centre and ground myself, feeling the grounding energy running
through the soles of my feet into the earth. I open my crown chakra
to reiki energy and draw that into my heart and down into one hand.

I imagine a ball of reiki energy growing, glowing and expanding in
the palm of my hand. When doing this I find it helps to gently turn
my palm up, sensing and feeling my palm and fingers cradling the ball
of reiki light. I visualise the golden rays of the reiki ball shining
out like the sun and stretching to fill the room/car/restaurant /table
or wherever I am, thus bringing reiki to everyone in the vicinity. I
hold this image for a few minutes and then close the ball down by
closing my hand. This technique seems especially useful in times of
tension but can be just as helpful if you want to use it at quieter
times when it provides an opportunity for deeper conversation or
quiet quality time together.

I've used this many times with amazing results and would really love
to hear others feedback about trying this too.
