Story Time – A Brief History of Lessons From My Spiritual Business Journey

Once upon a time, I found out that I would be a father, put all of my games and obsessions into a mental box, and studied Reiki to start teaching others similar lessons that I had been taught throughout my life in the lens of Reiki.

Then the life of a stay-at-home father HAD to become my only focus, working on starting my business at the time made my life difficult to manage and became detrimental to my mental health.

I told myself then what I still believe now, family will always come first and when I can handle the stress of work is when I will work.
I let my dreams go for a time, and it nearly killed me.

I soon realized that even working on my goals one small step at a time was better than giving it all up. Both for me, and for the spiritual forces that refused to simply let me quit.

Never again would I let myself stop dreaming of the day when I could provide for my family with my own hands and business.

Once upon a time, I raised an inclusive spiritual group of people who only wished to pursue a path of their own will in full love and light. It grew immensely from the people who joined and those who participated.

I even developed and built a blog to talk about spiritual topics, while also starting a drop-shipping business with spiritual jewelry to help scale it even higher.

Then I asked a friend I met to help mentor me to scale it, started asking for donations, and when the help dried up from life events, I was alone to work it all by myself.

I still did my best to run the drop-shipping business with all of the resources to learn and grow with what I could muster, but with all that I was trying to do and the bills I was paying for, I couldn’t afford to sustain it and keep my family. I had to let it go.

Never again would I scale my dreams past the point where I, myself could reach them.

Once upon a time, before my second child was born, I started an online church based on spiritual healing from the ground up. I did the necessary paperwork, built the doctrines, and asked people close to me to help me raise it up to be successful.

One by one, day by day, I found myself taking on more of the responsibilities I thought I would have help for.

No matter how often I asked, called, or even recruited, nobody stepped up. I only found resistance or more reasons to work alone.

Never again would I put the potential for the fate of my dreams in someone else’s hands.
Once upon a time, just after my daughter was born, I started Reiki Reverend. I built it from the ground up with everything I had left to give, and everything I had learned over time.

I knew better than to work outside of my means, and kept my growth slow. Within my limiting range of control as the children grew, but that was ok with me. I knew my best growth would happen much later, even if nobody else saw that but me. I knew I wouldn’t give this business up.

I’ve since been told many times to scale, to raise my prices to my worth. I’m a Holistic Health PhD, I’ve learned much over these years, I know my worth. I keep my prices low to help as many as possible, not just to profit.

I also respect my earlier lessons, and know what losses I could personally (mentally) afford if life circumstances keep me from service.

My family will always come first.

I’ve had many ups and downs running my business, most of the time from out of my own pockets. I know how to grow my business, I’ve even coached others to help them grow theirs, but I won’t forget my mission and earlier lessons.

I won’t forget that my children may need me before a high-ticket client, and I won’t simply ask for acceptance after payment out of mutual respect.

I’ve seen many times how I could scale my business tenfold. I’ve even written a good portion of it down for notes and helpful advice to give to my students and clients.

I’m not just here to do that though, I’m here to heal and share healing. To inspire growth that may not involve me too much at all.
In fact, I’ve seen some of my best impact by just sharing my life with the world, much like I am now.

Here I sit though, look at the next set of stairs leading my path upwards. I know where I’ve come from, I know why I haven’t gotten ‘there’ yet, and I’ve known for a while that under just the right conditions I’ll have no choice but to teach my children one of the most important lessons that I’m still learning myself.

Growth happens whether you want it or not sometimes, because there’s simply no other way. In those moments, you have to decide how you want to grow and how you want to remember making that growth happen.

My family needs me in a whole different way now, one that has me shivering with anticipation. I’m honestly more nervous about what I plan to do than at any other point in my career.

I would tell you what my plans for growth are, but I feel like at this point it’s much better to show you. Not as click-bait for a follow, not as a way to get you to buy my services at ReikiReverend.com, but because I simply can’t explain the impact in a way that feels right.

You’ve seen a lot of things like this by now, and I’m not like everyone else, or even who I used to be in the past. I’d rather show you, and everyone else who has been patiently waiting past the “I’m back,” and “more coming soon.”

In fact, I’m not announcing any of my next moves, but you’re all welcome to find out.

Some of you may even be inspired 🙏

The Connection to Reiki and Psionics

Reiki Reverend Psychic Reading

The Connection to Reiki and Psionics

By: Reiki Reverend, PhD


Is Reiki Really A Psychic Ability?

Due to its nature, higher ranging psychic, or psionic abilities such as making fire or stopping time can be a difficult idea to consider in reality. But what about ‘lesser’ gifts that range though perception like empathy or precognition? For that matter how about healing methods such as Reiki?

 

What is Psionics?

Psionics is defined as a form of doing that can relate to or imply the use of psychic powers or abilities. These powers are commonly considered unable to be explained by the natural laws we govern.

A famous actor once said, “Don’t think, just do.” This quote to me is what I would consider a foundation for how the use of psychic powers or abilities can be thought to manifest. Moments where doubt is eliminated and the mind can flow with ideas or actions, free of its lower logical weight of burden to create ways, in a way that may not be explainable later.

The study of psychic powers and phenomena is called Parapsychology. There are a good number of resources available online for further reading, and even a few games if you are feeling a bit adventurous.

The best way to understand psionics is the manipulation of natural forces in ways that are not commonly explained. These abilities can range from heat and cold manipulation to psychic communication such as telepathy, empathy, or precognition. The limits of psionics is similar to what limits one could think of when they understand Reiki. In essence, the two terms both point at working with forces outside of themselves, and in ways that can’t quite be explained. All we really know of these features tangibly is that sometimes there is more than meets the eye or touch for those willing to experience it.

How Similar Are Reiki and Psionics?

Reiki is a spiritual practice that is only enabled to work its best by intention to allow, and would never seek to harm. Practitioners of Reiki bless others and themselves with healing energy or universal life force. This energy is consciously allowed to flow through as a channeled source to empower both the healer and recipient.

In psionics, you can learn to do similar by aligning or attuning with your chosen source of empowerment. Some choose the Sun or Moon, but the choices only range with the imagination of the person channeling. One could imagine channeling the heat of the sun to keep warm is similar to channeling the energy that governs life to channel healing. By its character, psychic abilities are only enabled by the will or idea of the practitioner. There are no laws by our standards that fully protect against someone with bad intentions. Only a means to work similarly to disrupt or prevent it.

Is Reiki Mind Over Matter?


This is the question I chose because these two ideas can very simply be confused for the same thing, not to exclude magic or spellcraft from this forum. Psionics and the like are all considered to use the power within our minds to grant us other than ordinary gifts to use how we can with the world around us. As these gifts may carry our intentions and philosophies, the difference is by description.

The implication from any of these types of psychic abilities may carry is personal, I will do my best to highlight what should be transparent.

Reiki is a form of channeled healing that only requires a conscious connection between Reiki and the recipient. There is no manipulation of force, otherworldly or not. The environment created during a Reiki session is not an alteration of will to make you feel anything, or even force your body to heal itself. Reiki enables the naturally occurring processes within the recipient to heal themselves. The same goes for the one channeling Reiki.

When I think of the two, I think of psionic healing (for example) as willed healing and Reiki as channeled healing. If someone wants to stop Reiki from working, they only need to intend it. Also, Reiki as a conscious force itself can continue working as your alignment with Reiki is strengthened by a meditation or session.

When you focus your will upon someone, your intentions have the potential to become another’s reality no matter the consequence or thought. If someone wants to stop psychic will and does not have proper protective methods, it may be difficult for them to function as they were without assistance by methods such as Reiki or magic.

Thinking back about my own personal experiences with psionics, I find that it was one of the best ways for me to learn how to explore my extra senses and capacity for growth in a secular way, but I do not use psychic manipulation in my healing practice. I do however, work with many different beings and channel intuitive knowledge to guide and assist with my psychic readings. I do so under the same protection that governs the guidance as well as other beings of full Love (perfect love) and Light (perfect, or highest vibrating light).

There is an air of the psychic world all around us, and in many different ways we are all psychic inside. New Age terms do not change what has already been, but they can give insight to those who want to believe.

Thank you for reading, please share this blog and page with anyone you think could benefit.
Please leave a comment below if you’ve ever had a psychic experience that you couldn’t explain, or a Reiki experience that may have felt like psychic healing.

If you or someone you care about feels as if they may be under psychic attack, contact me and I would be happy to work with you to assess or assist.

Angelic Initiation Guided Meditation

angelic-reiki-master-course

Angelic Initiation Guided Meditation

Before starting this meditation, it’s important to be in a proper state of mind to both welcome the Angels and be present to their energies. You can do this by allowing yourself to find a comfortable and relaxed position and mindset.

Allow yourself this moment to be at peace from your day, taking calming and natural breaths. Give yourself some time to be present and let go of all stressful thoughts or forward ideas about this process.

If you have people in the room with you who are willing to acknowledge the Angelic presence, ask them to be present with you in mind or spirit during this meditation. You may find that using it often can help calm your mind, release tensions, and help you align with the higher Angelic vibration.

This meditation is intended to help you work with the Angels by aligning your chakras and energies within your body to the Angelic Realm. This meditation will allow them to work with you more intuitively and offer their assistance freely.

As you meditate, relax your mind of how the Angels may manifest to work with you. Allow for what may be shown to be for your highest good in full Love and Light.

Let the Angels work with you during this meditation and trust in their wisdom to help you achieve a positive state of mind, body, and spirit.

Now…

Allow yourself to be relaxed however you are most comfortable. If you are in a chair, begin to ease yourself gently. Let yourself relax. If you are in a meditative position, or simply lying on the floor or bed.

Any way that you feel comfortable is perfectly fine.  

Begin to relax your body even more now. Take several slow breaths, feeling the air move through your lungs and through your whole body.  

With each breath you take, picture yourself as a tree firmly rooted to the ground. As you breathe in, you are breathing in the energy of the earth. Universal life force. The energy that sustains all living things.  

Let your focus fall on the first chakra at the base of your spine: the Root Chakra.

Draw up energy from the Sacred Earth into this chakra. See it within your mind like a movie. Feel it flowing deeper within as you breathe.

Picture the Root Chakra as a ‘wheel,’spinning calmly from the Earth’s energy in a deep red color. Continue to draw in this energy, and feel its pulse or vibration as it moves. 

See the wheel within your Root Chakra starting to spin clockwise, round and around, as it is filled with this beautiful Sacred Earth energy.  

 Now, allow the Earth’s energy to gently move up to your second chakra, the Sacral Chakra, just above your waist.

Picture it in your mind as a beautiful bright orange, feeling the chakra absorbing the Earth’s abundant energy inward, and beginning to spin calmly just like your Root Chakra.

Take a few moments to allow your breath to follow its gentle spinning flow. Feel the Earth’s energy bringing it peace.

When you’re ready, allow this energy to move upwards towards the Solar Plexus Chakra, just above your belly.

Feel the Earth’s loving embrace filling this chakra with energy as well. See again within your mind, this chakra also beginning to spin gently with this warm flowing energy. Observe within as it glows with the most beautiful and brightest yellow.

Allow your breath to continue guiding this energy upwards into your Heart Chakra.

See within your mind, this chakra is also blossoming with color. The purest green light that the earth could bestow.

Relax, and be in this energy for a moment. Feel the love as this chakra is healed and energized by the Earth’s compassion for all living things. 

When you are ready, allow for this energy to continue moving upwards to the Throat Chakra.

See within your mind’s eye, as this chakra begins to spin and glow in pure blues. Feel its warmth flowing as if it had been touched by the gentle light of the sun.

Rest for a moment and allow yourself to feel the pleasure this sensation brings to your entire body. 

Allow again, for the Earth’s energy to continue moving upwards to the Third Eye Chakra on your brow.

Feel it begin to tickle gently as the energy revitalizes this chakra. See it begin to blossom and glow in a deep indigo color.  

Finally, allow for this sacred energy of the Earth to upwards again to your Crown Chakra, just above your head. Feel this tingling sensation work its way in a spinning pattern, as the others. See this chakra begin blossoming in beautiful purples and violets as a light dances around it.

This is the pure white light from the universe. Glorious, boundless, endless.

You are a part of this light, and at one with the universe.

This same light flows within every living being on this Earth.

The kind rays of this light guide us all in ways both seen and unseen.

It is with us every single day.

When you are ready, begin to see in your mind the universal energy flowing downwards through all of your chakras. You may notice this light intensifying the colors you saw before.

Feel this energy soaking into every chakra, from your Crown and all the way down to your Root.

Feel its loving light and revitalizing energies.  

Now, you are resonating at a higher level of pure light. This light allows you to work with the Angels for whatever you may need.

Ask them in your mind, or with your voice, to be present with you here.
Allow them to show you how to call their presence for yourself.
Ask the Angels to connect with you, and show you their healing ways.

Be present in this time with the Angels, allow them to direct the energy within and heal you. Be in these moments to feel them washing over you. Cleansing you, healing your worries and pains. Replenishing you, sharing their light to work within you for your highest good.

Be one with this healing energy for as long as you like.

When you are ready, thank the Angels for sharing their love and light with you. For sharing their ways of healing with you. Feel your heart pulsing gently to share its pure love with them in gratitude.

Ask for their help to seal in this pure Angelic energy so that you may use it to connect with them again.

 See within your mind, these chakras slowing down their spin, feel the Angels blessing their energy within your chakras with their presence in full Love and Light.

Take a few moments to reflect on everything you witnessed during this meditation, as their divine light within you flows downwards. See in your mind, the things left within that do not serve you being released from your Root Chakra, and back into the Earth.

Spiritual Guidance – The Point of Healing IS Growth

Reiki Reverend - Antonio Dixon - Spiritual life coach, energy healing teacher

Spiritual Guidance –
A Blog Series by: Reiki Reverend, Ph.D.

In-depth yet light-hearted spiritual guidance, general spiritual advice, and discussion based on different ways for you to enrich your spiritual awakening process.

 

One of the major goals of healing is growth. Spiritual, mental, physical. This growth is spoken for in ways that cannot be fully calculated or measured.
This growth simply IS, and shares itself to our perception as a result of healing intention.

How we choose to determine that growth when it comes to energy healing methods such as Reiki, is one the few effective markers besides scope that anyone has to understand just how much we have healed from our session-work or practice.

Our scope for healing is one of the biggest components that we have to determine our effectiveness as a healer. Once we understand this as limitless, the rest is separating from the results just long enough to witness it.

That being said, there is not very much else of a point truly. The aim of healing is always the continuity of life in some form. That fact is inarguable upon insight. The other understanding one gains from this journey is that with the continuity of life, there is always the possibility for a sweeping change.

A rapid blip of, “I had no idea that could happen.”
Of what nature, none can know, but only witness.

If we aren’t present in these thoughts, how will you know they exist?
What healing miracles lie just around the corner?
If it’s not around this corner, or that corner, what about just over the shoulder?

Even if we don’t know where to look, that’s fine. This type of perception in miracles happening within each moment isn’t as common at heart as is the sight of miracles or spoken word. Some people simply don’t believe in miracles, while others are willing to accept its both its existence and mystery as something that is intangibly ineffable.  Personally, I believe that miracles happen best when we’re not looking for them, but are open to their arrival within the breath of the moment.

My only goals in life have always been to grow as much as possible and help people out.
When I accepted my healing journey as my life’s work, I also accepted that the growth I would witness could be truly infinite. This was the best way I felt capable of allowing the work of Reiki to be done with the least amount of attachment from me.

I AM Reiki, but you are also Reiki.
As we work as one, miracles may be known and done.

The work that creates miracles from there is the very same work that enables growth.

How I choose to work within those lines, to keep myself happy and healthy, is by being as present as possible in my growth and its potential to witness miracles.

The 5 Reiki Principles are my favorite affirmations, doing my best to feel comfortable with my decisions is how I allow for these principles to be seen within the moment or soon after. They are what assist me to fearlessly begin taking action when someone is in need of healing. Even if that person is myself at the time.

I’m blessed in that I’m able to work in this capacity with present understanding of my purpose. My perception is what help me walk this path daily with little concern, it is what helps me heal the most when I do find concern. It is simple to say that if you don’t like the weather, just change your mind. Wisdom teaches of the moments when that’s not as easy as it sounds, but it also grants insight to the moments when it can be just that simple.

In these times, it is hard for a lot of people to reach out and connect with others without worrying for themselves or their immediate families. Even though people who considered themselves family to others are now sheltered compared to how they used to be. These types of changes are only the precipice to a much larger change of the whole.

What we are now faced with as individuals and groups is a harder insight. To look at ourselves in a way that is not as autonomous as waking up and walking the day. It is something that works in a way that we can’t predict. Because of that, many of us are frightened.

However, it’s not the fears that keep us from moving forward to infinity and beyond. To those who known of reincarnation, some of us have gone through that already after all. What allows for us to move forward are the very same forces that we could never hope to control in its simplest and most complex measures.

The miracle of growth by all means possible and potential to our existence.

The belief in what can happen, and the faith or just cause to seek the next horizon.
Where our visions of humanity’s healing miracle is just around the corner.
Only hidden just enough from sight to grant faith for those who would keep it.

Thank you all for reading.

Reiki Flower of Life

Reiki Flower Of Life

The Reiki Flower of Life healing technique was given to me in meditation by Archangel Raphael and Metatron on July 18, 2017. Slightly over one year after I was shown Hakuyama Reiki. A technique that I will share with the world very soon.

This technique uses energetic and healing principals from the Seed of Life, the Tree of Life, and the Flower of Life.

When all three are fully channeled with Reiki energy, impeccable shifts begin to happen in the body, mind, and spirit.

As you channel using this healing mantra and technique to align, you may notice a rise in your ki.
As your ki rises, some may notice a stronger flow of healing energy, an acceleration of healing happening from within, In some cases, this manifests as an altered perception of the many ways you may begin or continue to heal.
As this acceleration or altered perception of healing occurs, it begins to expand as well.
In the end, it will bring your healing awareness into the ALL.

Once reaching this form of awareness, you may find more ways to heal a concern than were initially aware to you.

I share this following technique and mantra, as well as any of the higher energies I’ve experienced with you all now in full Love and Light.
May the experiences that follow bring you Peace and Love.

First, ground and center while initiating the channel of Reiki.

Meditate on the Seed of Life, the first emanations.

Intone or chant any name/or title you hold as if you were introducing yourself to the Universe in all of your forms.

Once you feel prepared, speak these affirmations.
Letting each one light a unifying beacon with every being in existence.

“I am all of who I am, their values, and much more.
I am one with the Universe, its principles and guidance.
I am one with the Multiverse as it chooses to work through me for the collective.
I am one with Source as the foundation of my creation and naturally loving being.”

Allow for the experience of these affirmations in the mantra call to your space to awareness as you embrace the Seed of Life, permitting its healing energies and principles to begin working through you in a loving way.

As you do so, direct the channel of these energies to speak or observe any loving affirmation of you have that needs to be reflected more within your Light.

After, meditate briefly on where these energies guide you.

Proceed forward when you are ready to do so.

If you are experiencing bliss and Love, embrace it.

Intend and allow for the Reiki to heal, balance, or activate whatever you feel is needed in the now to complete your goals and progress.

If you are having difficulty feeling comfortable with them, what issues present themselves that currently prevent you from allowing for these energies to work with you?

Perhaps these are areas that require more attention as you continue along your healing journey.

Intend and allow for these energies to now cycle through your cellular body.

For the principles and understanding of the Flower of Life to work through you in a loving way.

Remain present in Reiki as these energies begin to rejuvenate you in mind, body, and spirit. Release all that is no longer needed.

As you begin to feel renewed, allow for the energies to flow outwards as they expand your perception and being further.

Be in this place for a time. At one with the ALL in your world.

Allow for the healing wisdom of the Tree of Life to be present with you in the now.

As you embrace that feeling of oneness, let it grow and expand as well, this time in all directions, ever-expanding your gaze until the whole of the many universes are known to you.

Here are where all outcomes of your dreams are known.

Intend to share Reiki to the outcome(s) that are Loved in the highest good and allow yourself to connect.

When you are ready to return, acknowledge your multidimensional self, and allow for your perception to lovingly return to you in Perfect Trust.

As you do so, you may also thank the Source of your creation for being a part of you 🙂

After experiencing the Reiki Flower of Life, you may have found that you had a profound or unique experience.

Please share that with me in the comments below.

Be sure to fully ground and center with food and drink that resonates well with your path and being.

Thank you all for reading and sharing Reiki with me. If you found this technique helpful, please share it below.

Also, if you are ever in need of a Remote or Distance Reiki Session yourself, feel free to browse my Healing Services.

What is Reiki?

Reiki Reverend Neural Light LED Energy Healing

What is Reiki?

Reiki is the essence of life and self-preservation. It is in the DNA of every living thing on the planet. It embodies the higher self’s connection with the universe, and it is a part of the ebb and flow of life.

We are all born with the capacity to heal and maintain our health naturally. It is our conscious decision to develop this gift into an art that makes one a healer.

Our ancestors used this inherent knowledge, as well as other skills, to preserve not only our lives but the lives of others as well. Unfortunately, due to the passage of time and the rapid growth of technology, we have lost touch with much of this wisdom. 

We have lost touch with our natural capabilities to heal and tune into the needs of Spirit. To touch infinity, and grasp what could be considered basic concepts related to some of our greatest gifts.

Through many forms of media, and the postulation of a cookie-cutter society, we have not only been conditioned to listen to our logic more than our hearts, but we have also been taught that we as individuals have little say in what the picture of right and wrong is in terms of who we really are inside.

Balance of the heart and mind is necessary in order for there to be true harmony. Instead of relinquishing control over one’s health and well-being, it has become increasingly important to regain our inherent power; our birthright to a state of higher self and self-awareness. 

Reiki can be a very strong motivator for this shift to occur.

Many say that when you are prepared to find Reiki, Reiki will find you.

Reiki, the invisible ebb and flow of the universe, will seek you out when you need it the most.

Spiritual Guidance – Taking One Step Back

Reiki Reverend, PhD - Spiritual Guidance, Energy Healing, and Psychic Services

Spiritual Guidance

A Blog Series By:

Reiki Reverend, Ph.D.

I’ll be giving in-depth yet light-hearted spiritual guidance, spiritual counseling, and a way for you to enhance your spiritual awakening.

In this article, we’ll be taking a step back. What do I mean? Read my story below.

Taking One Step Back

My goal today is the provide the help you need to achieve that next step on your personal paths to your higher purpose. Speaking of steps, that’s exactly what I want to talk about.

Steps.

Already, I have some people excited about that concept. “Alright, progress, moving forward all the time.”

After all, most of us perceive time as linear even if we don’t think about it consciously. We wake up in the morning expecting the rest of our day to fall in line from beginning to end. Sunrise to sunset, event to event.

That’s a fine way to look at things, but what if I told you that sometimes, things don’t always work out like that. Some people will automatically see where I’m going. I may have just lost everyone else, but that’s ok, isn’t it?

That’s the point.

Your day may have been going along rather smoothly before this point.

Or this point.

Or even this point.

Now you may be starting to question the way things are going to work within this blog.

I assure you that this is all going according to plan. Who’s plan is completely up to your intuition.

I woke up this morning, just like I have the past few days. Only to sit at my desk and wonder what I’m going to do with my day. You see, I’ve had a lot planned out these past days, and I’ve made a lot of changes to how I operate.

These rapid changes in my life seemed to be leading me to what I call, the next season of my epic TV series, that you all just happened to be a part of. I say it like this for a reason. You see, like all popular TV shows, there’s a protagonist or hero, and then there’s the antagonist or villain.

Sometimes, it’s as clear as that guy at the door who’s trying to keep you from entering your favorite restaurant. Other times, it can be far less clear.

A few weeks ago, I was drinking up to a whole pot of coffee a day, I was taking in a lot of nicotine from my e-cigarette, I was stressed, distressed, and just flat out a mess with my emotions. Even though I was thinking these things would help, time after time they just never seemed to work with me completely.

What changed for me you might ask? Reiki.

You see, up until the point of realizing my healing journey, I didn’t have a daily practice or study. I was pretty much just walking by the heels of my shoes, with my feet barely in, and I was waiting for my miracle to happen like a little kid waiting for Santa Claus.

I refused to accept personal accountability for some of the things that went on in my life, even though I was great at deflecting or rewriting a situation in my mind to suit what made me feel better about it.

As a result, my lifestyle seemed to remain in this flux where I secretly knew that things would only improve just long enough for my hope to be shattered before my eyes.

It wasn’t that I was a bad person, I walked in the light and all that comes with that. Every day wasn’t inherently bad for me, but my perception of the day is what would always torture me.

It’s this logic that I was always fighting a constant battle between myself and my inner demons, and the belief that their strength would eventually trump mine is what led me to a victim mentality and caused me to allow for my personal power to be whittled away.

Finally, it all caught up to me.

You see, while I was waiting for this miracle to happen, I wasn’t paying close attention to the abundance and wonder that was accumulating all around me. My son, who was attuned to Reiki while my significant other was pregnant and already developing to be a pretty hefty empath, had begun to understand himself more and more by the day.

My significant other was starting to make some big changes in her life and aiming higher and higher each day. Meanwhile, there I was, a hermit in a cave. I liked my cave for its ‘safety.’ I secretly knew that once I stuck my head out of that cave, it would be time for me to change as well. It would be about time for that next season to come.

I feared that next season so much because it meant that I would be a much larger blip on the radar. I couldn’t make the same childish mistakes of the past without facing some big consequences. I guess you could say that I have a Peter Pan complex, afraid to grow up and come into my own power.

Even then I knew that it would be necessary for me to work at my best and shed as many of my bad habits as I could.

That’s when I was called to begin teaching Reiki again. I knew that I was only at my best when I was practicing on a consistent basis and helping others. It’s like my blood would begin to run cold if I wasn’t helping others.

I had wanted for a long time to try working out a sliding scale to help people out who couldn’t afford the lessons or the sessions, but it was troublesome because I never felt as if I should be charging others.

Not for lack of self-worth, but for lack of desire. I just didn’t feel that Spirit wanted me to get compensation for my services at the time. The less than positive feedback from my associates only made the weight on my shoulders that much heavier.

I remember what happened next like a lucid dream. For the first time in over a month, I had finally lined up a 1-on-1 class with a good friend of mine who I’d been talking to about learning Reiki for about as long as I’d known him. Not even a day later, I had another 1-on-1 class lined up with someone else I was called to teach who I’d known for a while on Facebook.

These classes and the events to follow would come nothing short of fantastic.

That next week I had them both attuned to Reiki I and was proceeding with daily follow-up chats to make sure that they were receiving the attunement well and keeping up with their studies. In that same week, both mine and my significant other’s moms fell ill and ended up in the hospital. Another one of our friends was also making a trip to the hospital for surgery.

As I was called to work more on the infrastructure of my Facebook group I was also coming across a good number of requests for healing.

For the first time, I ran a distance Reiki session for multiple people at the same time. I would then go on to do several other distance sessions over that span of time. I would say that at one point in the week I was doing at least 2-3 a day for about 20-30 minutes at a time.

It would be shortly after that week that I began to feel odd. I had less control over my emotions than normal, and I felt my energy leaking right out of me. My thoughts all seemed to become negative, and before I could even fully process anything that was happening to me I knew I would need to assume the worst.

That for the first time in a long time, all of that negative energy that was being stored up in the corners of my mind had begun to flow freely. It had been revealed to me to help me heal more.

I knew that I had to take action, but I wasn’t confident that I could do it by myself. As I continued to find any source of light inside or outside of me to abate this sensation feeling like it wanted to engulf me, I reached out to whoever I could think of to help me.

Every time I started to reach out, I felt my mind splitting apart at the act, attempting to rip my hands back from the keyboard or phone. It had started to get worse and worse over time. After I had gotten the last message out, I felt in my heart that nobody would reach me in time.

I had to make a choice.

Either let this feeling wash over me and take me, or assume a meditative posture, lock my body up, and fight with every ounce of light I could muster up.

So I turned on my Himalayan salt lamp, put on some appropriate music to meditate to for the occasion, turned it all the way up to drown everything else out, and I went to work chanting the symbols and channeling Reiki in prayer.

I was in deep meditation for about an hour and a half before I would come back to my body. During that period of time, I experienced the greatest crucible I had ever faced.

So many times, I felt my mind and astral body being tossed around, ripped apart, smashed, burned, and much more. It was almost like the dark night of Siddhartha as he meditated under the bodhi tree.

Every set back made it harder and harder for me to will myself back together and continue. I felt like I was fighting a losing battle. That I had too much negativity in me to fight off. This was it, my last crusade. In my final moments of these thoughts, I felt the ascended masters and angels speaking to me.

“Stop fighting with your will, heal with your spirit!”

It was at that moment that I stopped feeling sorry for myself. I stopped thinking of this as a simple battle of brawn and I saw it for what it really was. My grand opportunity to heal myself on the deepest level I could fathom.

I called every ounce of light within me to my hands, every bright and happy moment of my life, every bit of hope and faith in my goals and aspirations, and that night I discovered depths of my capabilities with Reiki.

I channeled it not only into that darkness but to every corner of my mind that was still in pain, every memory that just needed some love and light to grow into something better.

When I came back, I wasn’t anywhere near the same. I felt completely healed on all levels. Over the course of the next few days, I would severely cut down on my caffeine and nicotine consumption, change my diet, and experience a deep reprogramming of my mind and thoughts.

By the end of this time, I would have cut out coffee altogether. I felt a sense of peace and serenity in my mind that seemed to be waiting within for the right moment to come out.

This is a recollection of events during one of my meditations:

“I was journeying to the furthest reaches I could take my astral journey when I first ran across it.

Vibrant streams of energy, huge and dense constructs that felt like other planets super far away, entities that could perform a perfect telepathic connection with such high vibrations (all of them).

We conversed for quite some time before I began to test the limits of my trance with this energy. I was able to move my body in ways I haven’t in years and function at a MUCH higher volume than I’ve ever been capable of.

There were a few odd things that happened though. The more I accepted this developing power within me as mine, the stronger the connection I became between my son and Twin Flame.

I was given the impression that any form of conflict that would occur on this level would not only affect me, but him, her, and even my blood family and ancestors as well. I was even warned quite a few times as the level of the connections slowly escalated to a peak.

The oddest thing that happened to me at that time was a technique called, “Understand.” Several of the entities I encountered used this technique on me. I was able to not only sense their power afterward but peer into ‘them.” Highlights of their existence, where they came from as well as their power and the distant extensions of it.

I would almost always come into a sense of apprehension eventually as if I had a choice to make about whether or not to accept or rebuke the energy. I only rebuked what felt like negative or harmful intent, and simply allowed the rest to be. Then something even odder happened.

After being exposed to this “Understand” technique so many times and allowing myself to exist at my highest potential (mainly to be prepared for anything to go bad), I noticed that I literally had no limits. I could most likely continue to tap my energies for as long as I needed to. Like I was connected to a deep source of unlimited energy.

After a good many times being tried with “Understand,” I began to get how it was being done and I began to exchange this technique with them. It almost seemed like they were trying to teach me after a while. Like they were helping me become more aware of my capabilities, but beware of other entities out there with similar capabilities.

Eventually, I felt it time to ground and come back, but I still feel like I’m a part of it now. Like there are aspects of me that have expanded into a much deeper pool of knowledge and capacity.”

After that, I began to accept and embrace my path in other ways as well. I meditated more and began to expand my consciousness, from the universe that we know to the multiverse that we only dream of.

I have since this time went back and learned more, but that journey is far from over.

This was my step forward.

It took a few weeks, maybe months, but I started to feel drained yet again. This time has been different. I had stopped drinking coffee, but I was slowly gauging up my tea consumption. I’ve felt stuck in a loop and run down. At first, I just thought that I was exerting too much energy during these meditations and that I needed to rest and recharge. After a while, I knew that it was more complicated than that.

Well, the easiest thing I can say is that I finally broke down. I finally made a pot of coffee. The hard part is to say that I needed to take a step back with a lot more than that so that I could move forward later.

At first, I felt a bit down, that I had to depend on something other than my own will to get my engines going. I didn’t see or understand what would come of it because I was too busy worrying about the broken promises, or the step back.

Looking at things now as I write/speak to you, I would say that I needed that step back in order to move forward.

I needed to take another look at myself and my ego and realize that my goals are too important to allow myself to be bogged down by the weight on one step back knowing that with that step back, I am now ready to take a giant leap forward.

This is something we all experience in life at times.

When you admit that you were wrong in an argument to heal from the experience. When you have to wait and pay for your car repairs so that you can finish your vacation or get to work. Even when you must reevaluate everything that you’ve ever thought was right in order to walk the path you’ve always needed to be on.

I’m here to tell you, that not only has it been done before, but it WILL be done again. By you, by your friends, by your family, by your neighbor.

And that’s OK.

Instead of coming from an inner/outer place of judgment when those times finally come, it’s important to have faith in the situation working out for the better.

Carlos’s Spiritual Awakening Experience Part 3

Carlos's Spiritual Awakeing Experience - Separation From The Healing Results

Enter Carlos’s Spiritual Awakening Experience.

Carlos is a Reiki Level 1 Practitioner.
He is also a Grand Source Faith Healer.

I have personally mentored Carlos in the Healing Arts.
I have watched as he has blossomed into an excellent energy healer.

His methods are his own.
The results speak for themselves.

These are his stories.

Part 3 – Separation from the Healing Results

 

So I decided to start healing others.

The first person I worked on was my dad, he is going through treatments for colon cancer again. I started the treatment but nothing was happening, I couldn’t understand why.

My own father. Why can’t I help him out? The answer would reveal itself shortly.

My dad doesn’t believe in any of this stuff and was blocking all of it. He accepted to receive the healing because I was his son, but in his heart, he didn’t accept that this would actually work. I didn’t let this get to me.

In the end and beginning of any treatment you do to anyone, you are a healer with a client. There needs to be separation from who you are doing it with. This was the best advice I received from Antonio.

Sure enough, a few days later, a good friend of mine had a tumor removed from her uterus. She calls me the next day after surgery.

“I’m in so much pain. Can you help?” So I decided to meet her.

She could barely sit up and was only comfortable while laying down. I started my healing. Throughout the process, she was talking to me about what she felt.

The area where the surgery was done started to feel really warm. Then there was a slight pulling feeling where the surgery happened.

I asked her, “Would you like me to stop?”

Her response. “No, because I know you will never hurt me and I will be healed.”

This is the best attitude to have, open heart, open mind. Believe, and miracles will happen.

After the 1 hour session, there was a huge difference in what she felt. Most of the pain was gone, and to prove she felt better she was sitting upright with very little discomfort.

I want to share this experience because I had both extreme situations. A believer and nonbeliever.

We are here to help those that want help, keep your focus and continue to take this journey you were called to do. Remember, This is nothing new you are learning, you are just remembering what you did in the “past”.

The next few days after the attunement. There’s an excitement inside of me, but when the dust settles. What do I do now?

I started to try and force myself to channel and figure it out. Is my vessel suppose to feel a certain way? Am I saying or doing the right things? I contacted Antonio a few times for what I call a “tune-up” call.

Some clarification to my feelings, but in the end, all I can say to the newbies is this.

Don’t over think it, clear the mind and open your heart. Let the guidance from above assist you.

It’s a heavenly experience, a blessing. For me, when I get assistance from different guides, I have an uplifting high-vibe feeling. We all are doing to have different experiences and feelings. Trust is the word I have for you. Trust in yourself.

The best part for me was that any time I have or had questions, I could reach out and contact Antonio.

He is a teacher you need to have. He is ALWAYS in your corner rooting for you and have the answers you need to hear.

Harmony in Light/Dark – As Recorded on Spreaker

Light

Want to listen to this blog instead?
Check out my recording of this article from my Spreaker Podcast: A Healer’s Musings  

What is your next big step with developing yourself and your spiritual practice?

For me, it was looking for a way to help others discover Spirit and find their Light.

This was the major goal I had for myself when I started this path. For me, that meant learning how to push through everything that had broken me down before. A way to heal and use my experiences to help others heal.

 

For those of you who have been curious about who I am behind the screen or speakers, let me take a moment to introduce myself. I do this in hopes to inspire others to do the same.

“Beginning my journey in spirit from a young age, I’ve always dedicated myself to furthering my studies for the purpose of helping others develop in spirit. This path would not be trekked easily though, and definitely not without hardship or sacrifice.

I would experience many lessons during early life that would shape me into someone capable of compassionate leadership and grace. I was commonly misunderstood by my peers for having a different view of the world. I would befriend people from various walks of life, speaking what wisdom was gifted to me by Source to anyone who would hear me.

While this got me far more attention that I would have liked (being called weird, being shunned and outcast from the ‘popular crowd,’ even being bullied and neglected by my peers), it also granted me valuable experience in public relations. 

My beliefs in a broader spectrum of thought and existence were one that would be wrought with mixed understanding. Put simply, the kids my age just didn’t get me, and those who did had no idea what to do with me because of how old I was.

I had the air of a philosopher by age 12 and was quickly aspiring to be a great counselor or psychologist by the time I finished high school. I studied Psychology at Delaware State University because I believed that by understanding the mind, I would be able to help others unlock their potential to develop within Spirit. This would only be one aspect of my path, however.

Months into my college career, I would develop serious issues with anxiety and fatigue that would force me to leave my studies prematurely. Lost, and without that greater knowledge I sought to help others on a deeper level, I began to grow tired of the place I once called home. It just didn’t sit right with me to stay there and allow myself to slowly deteriorate as I pondered the trials and tribulations that brought me to that point.

Instead, I looked towards developing the mental discipline and leadership skills in a way that I felt only the military could provide. I knew that this was my way of meeting an end that constantly seemed to elude me. Before shipping out to Basic Training for the United States Air Force,  I would be guided to meet the first of many spiritual mentors who would lead me to a fated meeting with my first Reiki Teacher during a weekend event in Pennsylvania.

I was introduced to Reiki in a way that was so elegant and simple that it quickly attracted my attention. It would be during my attunement to Reiki, that I was granted a vision of my future within its Light. I would stay in the Air Force for a short time before falling victim to more health issues. This time depression would accompany the anxiety and fatigue I had hoped were long-gone.

At the time, I had no major support network. I was away from all that I once knew, and many things had changed within me during my service. I realized that I knew nothing of who I was anymore or why I was even on my path anymore. I was truly in the wilderness of my mind, grasping at whatever I could to hold onto my life.

Fallen, and feeling hopeless, it would be the call of Spirit that would reignite my desire to continue to push forward. It showed me in ways that one day I would be shown an even greater Light, and that I would stand stronger than I had ever been before. That I would begin in full force, the path from the vision. I knew little of the miracles of Reiki at the time, but I felt a pull to continue walking down that path.

In my heart, I felt that it would be my compassion for others that would grant me my greatest healing and help me release this doubt and worry. I would spend quite some time in Texas shortly after leaving the military.

It would be there that I would begin recovering my facilities, learning what I could about Reiki and the old ways of Spirit, as well as receiving my attunement to Reiki 2. I was attuned to the level of Reiki Master for the first time in September of 2014 after a major shift would guide me from Texas, back to my home in Delaware, to Montana on what would be a great trip, and finally to Colorado.

I received my attunement through a video by Steve Murray as quite some time had passed since I had found a Master to train me, but the call of Spirit is ever persistent. I had already begun to feel stronger, but I feared the opinions of my peers for “taking the quick path to mastery.” So I would keep this accomplishment to myself until I felt unequivocally that I had indeed achieved a state of mastery with myself.

I studied diligently from that point on, reading, watching, and practicing Reiki whenever I could. Being attuned to the various levels again by different Masters as my spirit felt was necessary. It would be July of 2016, after a second Master attunement from my current Reiki Master, as well as a third attunement performed by myself and the Deva of Reiki in meditation, that I would feel a sense of completion with my initial training with Reiki.

To me, mastery is simply a completed step on the path to deeper understanding. Days after receiving my final attunement, I would begin to be gifted with the knowledge of healing and practice during my meditations, that I now refer to as Hakuyama (Spacial Cleansing) Reiki.

I’ve been a Reiki practitioner now for over 9 years. From humble beginnings in a campground in Pennsylvania to the many opportunities placing me in several different states across much of the United States, I am known to have worn quite a number of different hats. Now I move for the guidance and well-being of others as well as the development of the Light that lives within us all.”

 

I am also a Healing Minister as you all know. I received my credentials through the Universal Life Church in Modesto, California. This title and what it carries has left me feeling in somewhat of a vulnerable position compared to other practitioners of my kind.

I have found it pretty difficult to put both of our feet on the table, lean back into the couch, and just RELAX.

Being yourself as a minister, your true self, is one of the hardest things for some of us to do. To bare yourself, in all of your essences, to an entire crowd of people who rely on your words and even actions to some degree is not only an extremely difficult challenge, yet it’s also why some don’t last very long in my profession.

In trying to be the ‘ideal’ Minister, I felt that I must constantly be aware of myself and who I portray myself to be. Over time, I’ve found this very taxing. It’s why a while ago in a conversation with a respected peer, I decided that it was best to drop this idea of being the ‘ideal’ Minister, and just be myself at all times.

It is this type of dogma that I personally want to transmute by writing this blog and sharing my story. I want to show you all how to be yourselves while continuing to grow as Lightworkers and Healers.

So allow for me to speak to you all in a manner most consistent with who I am on the inside; A dude.

A blade of grass in this massive world that exists not only for my own aims, but to be a part of the collective. To be one with ALL of existence. How does one do this most simply, but by simply being what I have always been? A dude.

I don’t want to bore any of you with poetic rhetoric or even uncommon dialogue, so let me speak simply.

The moment when you realize that you can be EXACTLY who you are when you are with friends and family, in front of those we call our Soul Tribe of Lightworkers, or even the general public AND continue to work in a manner consistent in the Light, that’s when true progress can be made with standing in your full power.

Now some of you may think that this is a tall order, something too difficult to accomplish because of one reason or another. Today, I’m here to tell you that YOU CAN!

 

Light And Dark:

When we think about these aspects exclusively, there’s going to be separation, anxiety, maybe even resentment or guilt. Why is that?

Why are these two concepts so foreign to each other, and yet so necessary for each other to exist in their greatest respects? This is because of something called cognitive dissonance.

Cognitive dissonance is when there are inconsistent thoughts, attitudes, or beliefs. Basically, everything that causes us to believe that something is foreign, different, or even unique in its own respect. It’s our perceptions at this point that make these things so abstract as they begin to relate.

We simply don’t want to admit that not only do we need light to be light because of dark, but the opposite holds true as well. We need dark to be dark because of light.

When you are in the grocery store, are you not looking for the best experience ever?

On the shelves, you notice all kinds of lights and darks. ‘Bad foods,’ ‘good foods,’ fruits, snacks, even those things in between like over the counter medicine.

Some of these things may be completely unnecessary for your growth and development as a person, but let me ask you this? Would you have noticed all of those ‘bad’ or ‘good’ things had they not taught you something valuable to think of them like that?

We need our bad ‘apples’ just as much as our good ones. We need our multivitamins just as much as we need the money we save by buying them instead of the fruit and vegetables that they’re based around.

If we stop looking at the groceries for a second and start looking onto ourselves, we’ll notice that sometimes you’re angry at the person teaching you a valuable lesson the hard way (as universally prescribed), and sometimes we are ourselves that ‘bad’ person teaching someone else out of Love.

Being a Lightworker doesn’t have to mean being holier-than-thou at all times, some Lightworkers understand this and are very quick to tell you exactly what’s on the 11 o’clock news regarding your life and situation.

It’s all about a choice. It’s all about serenity; Serenity in making the choices we make on a moment to moment basis.

Healing Personal Power

Quantum-Energy-Spirit-Fractal

Our personal power, in all its glory, can come from a variety of places and manifest itself in a variety of ways….

We’re all familiar with the term inner fire or personal power. That amazing feeling of having it all together; like we’re on top of the world and nothing can stop us. Well, what happens when life circumstances diminish this power?

 

What happens when we lose sight of how to get it back?

As we involve ourselves in many endeavors, tackling this mystique of existence, there is a common understanding that sometimes things just happen.

Sometimes, these things are unavoidable, and cannot be solved normally. During these times, our power is taxed. Utilized through any potential way possible to further our goals and aims.

After some time, and many things manifesting themselves in our lives as hurdles or obstacles, we are brought to an unforeseeable inevitability. That at some point, our personal power will wane to a point where our only decision throughout the day is to simply BE.

Lighted Matchstick on Brown Wooden Surface

In earnest, this is not so bad of a place. It is here that we are current with our Understanding. of whatever situation we may find ourselves in. We are within a pocket of time.

This time exists as much mentally as it does physically. It is our home of deep thought and contemplation, our sanctum where we become hardened to everything else around us.

This means of protection must be temporary however, as it takes much power to maintain it and if we do not face our problems and begin to walk outside of this plane of thought, we will quickly become sapped of all energy and life can soon become rather meaningless to continue living.

 

After all, who in their proper way of thinking simply wishes to live their days waking, walking, and sleeping?

 

So, what happens when you’re stuck? What happens when you simply cannot leave this place that was once a sanctum to pool your thoughts and ideas safely? This is when it is time to seek a power greater than yourself.

If you are unable to walk in your personal power by yourself, you will need the help of another to pull you out of your place of comfort and into a place of non-ordinary reality.

This reality is where will is dominant and your thoughts don’t just become your reality, they ARE your reality. From this place, it is possible to heal personal power and rise again to meet vibrations with your higher self.

 

Perhaps within your sanctum, you held big ideas for your future that you feel are far from becoming reality. Perhaps in this space, you decided to hide from what was facing you until you were ready to challenge and defeat it. These things matter little when your power is all but used up, and many things know this.

This is why energy management is paramount.

This is why we eat, sleep, and exercise.

Brown Bird on the Tree Branch

Constant vigilance and maintenance of your energy is key to learning to master how and when to utilize the fullest extents of your personal power. Without the wisdom of these ideals, it will be very difficult to conquer your obstacles and rise to your fullest potential.

Just for today, take inventory of yourself for all that taxes your personal power and assess whether or not you are able to manage yourself properly. If not, then it is simply time to seek help.

If you choose to remain in this space for too long, there is a chance that you will not only fall victim to illness, but there is an even more ominous possibility of you permanently losing your connection to your personal power.

Tread wisely, and walk with bare feet on the warm and giving Earth.

Ever pressing… Ever flowing…
