The Stream
I often speak and get asked regards depletion lack of energy and flow. Let me put this into visual context.
Imagine a Stream, visualise the small stream flowing, visualise if you throw a small twig into the stream, watch how the flow, the energy of the stream carries the twig along.
If we where to simply divide this stream into 2 paths, we split the energy, and the flow, rendering it 50% into each flow path of the newly created streams. If we divide the stream even greater, say into 4 paths we split the energy, and the flow, even greater rendering it 25% into each newly created stream flow path. If we where to divide the stream even more the percentage of Energy and flow would decrease even more and more. The more we degrease the stream sooner or later we would render the streams stagnant simply because we have diluted the energy, the flow, so much the stream would almost stop to flow, with no energy.
If we were now to throw a twig into the stream, the stream wouldnโt have enough flow, or energy to carry the twig along. The twig would just simply rest motionless on top of the water. The stream at this stage would go stagnant unhealthy.
Now lets look at creating more energy, the total opposite of the above.
Lets again visualise the stream flowing. Visualise if you throw a small twig into the stream, watch how the flow, the energy of the water carries the twig along.
Now letโs narrow the stream lets decrease it, letโs create a resistance by 50%, immediately we get an increase in flow, and energy. Now lets throw the twig again into the newly created flow path of the stream and watch how the twig gets carried along almost twice as fast, because there is more flow, more energy, in the stream.
Now lets narrow the stream even more. The more we narrow the stream, the more energy, the more flow is being pushed down the stream. With each additional narrowing, visualise throwing the twig into the stream, and watch how fast it will get carried away. With each narrowing more resistance we increase the Flow, and Energy greater each time.
Imagine, watering your garden with a hose pipe, the water trickles out of the end, put your thumb over the end to cause a narrowing restriction, resistance, now watch how the water jets out of the end. The more resistance the greater the Flow the greater the energy.
Being Reiki Practitioners we have to simply learn to channel the flow even greater, more flow, more energy just like the stream.
When our life's become busy and we take on the burdens of life, carrying those burdens on our shoulders, feeling the weight, we start to decrease the flow, just like the stream, we start to become Stagnant unhealthy.
