♡︎ Just for today, I will not be angry…
Reiki Healing is rooted in five main principles. They act as affirmations or intentions and can be used to bring us back to our centre and the present moment ♡︎
One of these principles is :
‘Just for today, I will not be angry’. Besides our own personal experiences of living, the world right now can certainly present an immense amount of suffering. A flood of constant chaos and fear. Avalanches of pain and hardship. If like me you are particularly sensitive or empathetic this can measure heavily on your heart. The weight of the world and all it’s sadness can at times bubble over into incomprehensible outrage.
The presence of anger serves its purpose as protection. A shield to our heart centre where our true essence lives…Love ♡︎ Anger is our fight response desperately wanting to keep us safe.
This principle is a welcome reminder that although anger is our primitive protection, sometimes our toughest shield is built in surrendering. Remaining mindfully aware. But not allowing ourselves to become consumed and overflowing with fury for that which we have no control over. Pouring a portion of acceptance into the things, people and situations we can’t change in our outer world and redirecting our fire energy into that which we can change. Our INNER world ♡︎
Taking those moments to switch off that outside noise. And tuning into our internal compass that will always guide us back to Love ♡︎ Sending all that Love back out into the universe with intention, assisting in balancing those scales of light and dark. Recognising and appreciating those true sources of goodness in this life. Taking time to stop. Anchoring into the present. Breathing. And smelling the Roses ♥︎
