We are all getting a major lesson in the Root Chakra right now. The root chakra is all about basic needs... survival instincts including money, food, shelter, safety, water, and our emotional needs like being fearless and our interconnection. Read on to see how to soothe your root chakra...

Interestingly, our root chakra is also how we connect to the Earth.. Gaia. Mother Nature has been begging us to pay attention and I think she finally got her wish.

When our safety and security is put to the test like this, it can cause us to feel fear and become ungrounded. When we are unbalanced here it causes things like mistrust, thinking you can only rely on yourself, terrified of loss of control, anxiety, disconnection from people and nature, hoarding, obsessing about money, being a workaholic (think of all the people so reluctant to stop working right now), binge eating or loss of eating.... Geez, sounds like 75% of the world right now!

We are being asked to be aware of, and now have the opportunity to address our root chakra issues. We have no choice right now other than to face them head on... in my opinion, this is an opportunity to do that and know yourself better, heal, and get connected to Gaia. So I thought I’d share some things you can do to help soothe this chakra right now... This will help address the issues and bring a sense of inner peace and harmony and connectedness.

-Yoga. Even if it’s just 20 minutes in the morning or at night, feel your feet against your mat or floor and do some sun salutations, tree pose, squat pose, warrior poses, and goddess pose. Finish with child’s pose. Put on some mellow yoga music and remember to breathe.

-Drink tea with hibiscus, rose hips, or rooibos.

-Eat root vegetables.

-Listen to grounding music. Almost every night I listen to a track with thunder and rain.

-Chant “LAM”

-If it’s not too cold for you, walk outside in your bare feet.

-Visualize a red ball of light pulsating at your tailbone.

-Take a cleansing shower and scrub with pink Himalayan salt.

-Journal about your fears and the root of them.

And if you made it this far, yay! Let me know if you’d like a card from this deck. Maybe Mother Nature has a direct message for you! ❤️

Think of your heart as the seed of the plant, where it all begins and where it all connects. The roots are equatable to the lower 3 chakras and need to grow down and wide to keep you physically healthy and stable and nourish you so that your light body, the part of you that witnesses your light (the higher 3 chakras) can reach up toward Spirit to grow from the top. A healthy plant grows in all directions. ❤️

Nothing stays the same... Change is the only constant. Embrace it! ❤️ Happy New Year!

12/30/2019

I spent some time in what I call the state of awareness yesterday. I was pondering the current people in my life and my circumstances and it took some time, but remembered exactly when I manifested each of these to be brought into my life.

We are constantly manifesting things into our lives, whether we are conscious of it or not. And you may be surprised to know that we aren’t really manifesting things that we THINK we want, but we are manifesting the things we FEEL.

Feeling is key in manifesting, and hopefully by now you’ve taken a little time to show gratitude for the last year, and you’ve gotten clear on what, or who, it is you’d like to bring into your life for the new year. 🙂

Now that you know what it is you want... FEEL IT! Feel what it would be like to have those things, because guess what, you already have them. What do I mean? The universe is constantly giving you the things you desire... it may not always look like what you thought though because the universe doesn’t always operate from your thoughts, it takes your feelings into account and actually gives them more priority.

For example, if you say you’d like to find the love of your life in 2020... you can write it, say it out loud, wish for it, and cry about it. But if inside you FEEL unlovable and undeserving, that’s what the universe hears and it attracts to you more of what you feel.

This is why it’s so important to have self-awareness and practice self-care. This is why it’s important to dig in and do the work on yourself and find out where these false thoughts and identities stem from... you can go back and read my post on the Solar Plexus chakra for more clarity on this and how to identify where your beliefs about yourself are coming from!

So, now that you understand how it works... go out and FEEL your desires! You can use your imagination... close your eyes and picture already having it and feel what that would be like. Draw it. Sing it. Talk about already having it. Make plans as if it’s yours. And DO IT.

If you want to get healthier, feel what it’s like to nourish your body with healthy foods. If you want to find love, love yourself! If you want to remove negativity, say goodbye to someone who makes you feel bad about yourself.

Manifestation really works, and you start by FEELING and then DOING. ❤️

What do you want to manifest for 2020?

This time after the holiday and before The New Year is the perfect time for reflecting on the last year and having gratitude for all that was. One way you can honor the past year and all of its lessons and gifts is to reflect on it. Smile and say thank you to the Universe. Maybe write a thank you letter for all of the wonderful things that happened. When you show gratitude, you are telling the universe you want more of that!

Once that is done, this is also a perfect time for getting clear about your intentions and what you want to bring into your life for 2020.

The power of manifestation is real, and I’ll be talking more about that and how you can create the life you want, but first you have to be clear about what it is that you want.

Take some time over the next couple of days and write down what you’d like to attract to your life in 2020 and WHY. Feeling the why is a very important part of this process!

What’s one thing you are grateful for that happened to you this past year? I’ll write mine in the comments!

The throat chakra... I took a little unintended break between the last chakra post and now, and I couldn’t figure out why. Almost every day I thought about posting this but I just didn’t have the words and I felt uninspired. After the events of last couple of days, I woke up this morning with clarity on this.... I wasn’t speaking my truth! My own throat chakra needed clearing!

When our throat chakras are blocked, it prevents us from speaking our truth. We may not even realize what that truth is or what it is that we need to say! I didn’t know what I was holding back until last night, and of course I was led there through a series of breadcrumbs that Spirit/the Universe graciously left for me to lead me to this point.

The throat chakra is like the gatekeeper or pressure relief valve for the energy of our personal truths and beliefs. Our inner desires and secrets we hold so close to us because of fear. Fear our truth won’t be accepted. Fear of ridicule. Fear of not being loved. Fear of the unknown. We could have had trauma as a child and felt or been silenced... that would create an energy block in the throat as well.

The color of this chakra is light blue and it’s located in the center of the throat.

Some symptoms of a throat chakra in need of balancing are:

-stiff neck
-sore throat
-thyroid problems
-headaches
-feeling misunderstood
-habitual lying
-loss of words

So what can you do to help?

-Get really clear about your truth. Grab your journal and just start writing if you’re not sure of or ready to speak your truth out loud yet. Just let it flow out onto the paper.

-Grab a blue crystal... my favorites for this chakra are turquoise, blue lace agate, and blue kyanite.

-Have a Reiki healing session (this can instantly balance all your chakras temporarily so you have a leg up to begin digging in to the inner work!)

-Vocal toning (google this, it’s very powerful!)

What truth, belief, or story are you holding inside?

Water doesn’t get mad at itself for being frozen or “stuck”... this is something that came to me while walking my dog 🐕 today.

We as human beings tend get frustrated when we we aren’t moving as fast as we want to or think we should be. We feel stuck and subpar. We put pressure on ourselves to figure it all out right now, move right now, do right now.

Did you know that when water freezes it’s actually expanding? When the energy (water) isn’t flowing as freely as it could, when it’s in the state of freezing up, it’s actually expanding and growing. Cool, huh? And the water doesn’t judge itself for not moving. It just chills (haha) and knows that soon enough the thaw will come and things will be moving around freely again.

We are human BEINGS, not human DOINGS. Sometimes just sitting with being can help you grow in ways and progress in ways you won’t even realize until the thaw.

And guess what, whether you’re in a state of freeze or a state of thaw, it’s all okay.

Did you know that in addition to offering 30 and 60 minute in-person Reiki sessions, I can also do distance sessions! That means all you need to do is be on the phone, zoom, or FaceTime with me and the energy will still do its thing! I also offer Tarot and Intuitive readings and I will soon be offering Akashic Records readings as well.

The way I access information is through meditation... as I’m meditating, flashes of scenes and information are processed through my mind’s eye (third eye 👁) and then I pass on that information to you.

If you have questions in mind during the reading, the information will usually relate to that, or be what Spirit wants you to know to help your healing, past life information, and sometimes passed loved ones come through as well. I can do these sessions in person and on the phone/zoom.

Check out the very reasonable pricing list here https://thereikiroom.as.me/.m

Gift certificates can be made for any of the services and make great Christmas gifts. 🙂

Equal energy exchanges… it’s something that’s been on my heart for the last couple of weeks or so, but what is it? Well, for those of you that have very analytical minds, you can relate it to a cost/benefit analysis. Really!
An equal energy exchange is when two people are in some kind of relationship… a friendship, a partnership, etc., and give and receive an equal amount of energy and hence, they benefit from the relationship in some way. They could benefit from this relationship monetarily, emotionally, spiritually, or in some other way. We are usually giving things like our time, money, minds, and hearts.

As long as there is a general sense of an equal exchange of energy between the two, an equal-ish give and take, both people will generally feel good about their connection.
But, sometimes, one will give more than they receive, and the balance is thrown off. Why would someone continue to give to a relationship when they're not getting the same care back? Well, it can be for a number of reasons. Maybe we are looking for validation, maybe we're playing out old stories with different people, or we don’t practice clear boundaries. When one person gives more than the other, the relationship will become out of balance and negative feelings may arise and the relationship could go south. And typically, it’s the one who receives the most that will end up cutting ties.

Chances are, you are thinking of a particular relationship with someone right now and questioning it… one thing you can do to test if there is an unbalanced energy exchange happening is take a minute, a couple of deep breaths, and really think of that person. How does saying their name make you feel? What does your body feel like? Are you tense? Are you avoiding? Anxious? Annoyed? Clenching any part of your body? Or are you feeling light, love, excitement, and joy when you think of them?

Being a giver is a beautiful thing and a wonderful gift to share with the world. But when you’re constantly giving without receiving, it can throw us out of whack and strain our relationships and muck up energy in our bodies. Energy is very much alive and if you pay attention to it, it will clue you in to what is in alignment for you and what could be released to move forward.

Have people ever told you that you give too much of yourself?

The heart chakra. All of us have experienced grief or heartache at one time or another, right? Well, the heart chakra is all about love, giving and receiving, how we relate to people, compassion, empathy, forgiveness... and this means for yourself as well. When we don’t allow ourselves to grieve and move forward, or we hold grudges, this is where all that hurt stays. The heart chakra is the 4th chakra and it’s located in the middle of the chest. It’s color is emerald green. If you haven’t read my other posts about the first 3 chakras yet, you’ll want to go read those first!

When we experience pain or heartbreak, we can build walls around our heart. The more intense the pain, the deeper you bury it, the bigger the wall. When we avoid feeling and releasing that pain, soon enough it becomes our new normal and we forget that it’s there. But the heart doesn’t forget... that wall stays up and guards us from any potential future heartache and then energy gets stuck there causing an unbalanced heart chakra.

The first 3 chakras are related to earthly matters and our human body, and as you’ll soon see, the upper 3 chakras are related to more spiritual matters. The heart lies in the center of it all and is the bridge between them and where we can rest in the stillness and beauty of all that is... love.
The element associated with the Earth chakra is air. Air is open, it moves through spaces. That’s what the heart chakra asks you to do with your feelings... move through them and then to love. It asks that you remain open. We can’t see air but we can see its effects, right? It’s no coincidence that it’s the same with love.

Our ability to see the beauty in the world, feel deep love for it, ourselves, and others are all signs of a healthy and balanced heart chakra.

When it becomes unbalanced we can experience:

-jealousy
-dwelling on the past
-grudges
-trust issues
-commitment issues
-procrastination/avoidance in dealing with your feelings or a relationship
-pushing others away
-loneliness
-being overly critical of yourself or others
- inability to give or receive openly

It can also manifest as pain or physical symptoms as well in the areas associated with the heart chakra such as the lungs (there’s that association to air again!), heart, or thymus gland. Please note that any problems in these areas shouldn’t be ignored and chalked up to a blocked heart chakra and you should seek medical advice.

Opening the heart chakra can be an emotional rollercoaster, I’m not going to sugar coat it. It doesn’t take a minute, or a day, or a week. Most of us have a lot of gunk in there that needs to be cleared out and it typically peels off in layers, like an onion. Just when you thought you processed through something, boom 💥, there’s more waiting for your attention. BUT- when you do the work and when you set the intention to heal your heart chakra, it’s as if the whole universe claps for you and conspires to help you on your journey.

The work is the most rewarding work you’ll ever do because on the other side is pure bliss and unconditional love. Not only for the beauty of the world, or for others, but for yourself as well. You’ll be able to recognize yourself again for what you truly are... love manifested in a human body. You will fall in love with the rivers and the oceans and the flowers, and the rain, (I’m still working on the snow), and your relationships will be catapulted to the next level. When you love yourself first (do the work), the world will reflect it back to you in everything else.

Some ways you can help your heart chakra:

-wear the color green
-get a green crystal (my favorite is emerald)
-give freely without conditions (this time of year is good for volunteering!)
-deep breathing exercises.. feel your lungs expand as you take in a slow breath for the count of 4 while envisioning green light filling your chest and lungs, hold for a count of 7, and then envision yourself releasing fear and anger and pain from your body as you breathe it out for a count of 8.
-reiki
-yoga positions like backbends and eagle pose
-forgiveness (what can you forgive yourself for today?)

Who thinks they could use some heart chakra love? I will send some distance healing reiki energy to anyone that would like it! Just let me know.

Buckle up.. this is a good one! The Solar Plexus chakra, the third chakra... its name literally translates to "Seat of the Soul". It's where the truth of who you really are is housed. If the Sacral Chakra (go back and read about the first 2 chakras if you haven't yet) is where we feel our emotions, the Solar Plexus is where we do something about them. It's located a few inches above the belly-button and it's color is golden yellow.

Essentially, it's our power center, our life force energy. It's where you identify with your ego (not necessarily used in a bad way here). The job of our ego is to keep us safe and to help us determine how we want to experience this life. The Solar Plexus is where your I AM comes from, which gives us a sense of purpose. "I AM a mother". "I AM a Catholic". "I AM good at xyz". "I AM a vegetarian". And so on.

The way we define ourselves is shaped by experiences we have early on in our lives, and it happens on a subconscious level. For example, look at how some of these experiences can turn into beliefs about ourselves...

A parent walks out on us.... "I AM NOT WANTED".

You get bullied... "I AM FLAWED AND NOT GOOD ENOUGH".

Your significant other cheats on you... "I AM NOT A GOOD PARTNER".

You get ridiculed for showing emotions... "I AM WEAK".

How we view ourselves is directly shaped from and is the sum of all of our experiences in this life. However, when you begin to uncover the truth, you will understand that you are SO MUCH MORE THAN THAT. You are life itself... the all encompassing beautiful divine creation that you are is waiting for you to shed those false identities and experience the blissful truth.

To sum this up, the things that happened to you just happened to you, they do not define you. But, the ego believes everything you tell it, and it wants to protect you. So if your belief is, "I AM UGLY", and someone tells you how you beautiful you are, your ego will go to bat for you and immediately reject the compliment and find ways to prove your belief to you. And the funny thing is, the person who complimented you is basing beauty on THEIR definition of beauty, which was formed during their younger years and their experiences. That person may have had a father who left the family for a blonde haired woman, and you and your mother are brunette... therefore that person's belief is "I AM UGLY BECAUSE I DON'T HAVE BLONDE HAIR", and then sees your gorgeous blonde hair and tells you how beautiful you are. Do you see how it's all just an illusion?

So, your Solar Plexus chakra is where your beliefs live and it's where you turn those beliefs into action. Some of the ways an unbalanced Solar Plexus can show up are:

-Lack of confidence
-Being a bully
-Lack of self-esteem
-Fear of taking risks
-Fear of confrontation
-Lack of boundaries
-Being controlling, domineering, or a narcissist (overactive ego)

Some body parts that correlate with the Solar Plexus are:

-Stomach
-Kidneys
-Liver
-Sympathetic Nervous System
-Intestines

Here are some ways you can help your Solar Plexus if you you are having issues with any of the above:

-Get out in the sun and feel it's warmth on your body
-Take responsibility for your life and your choices. Try to come from a place of love and not judgment. "I did make that choice, and I did the best I could do at that time. I will learn from it and do better next time."
-Get clear about your boundaries and practice them!
-Visualize beautiful golden light coming from your Solar Plexus, or wear that color
-Reiki
-Sun Salutations or boat pose in yoga
-Feed your body healthy, nourishing foods like fruits and veggies

So what do you think... could your Solar Plexus use some love? What belief do you have about yourself that you can trace back to an experience?

Sexuality. A fun topic, right? Well, today we are talking about the sacral chakra which is all about your sexuality, creativity, pleasure, and your emotions. If you missed my post yesterday about the first chakra, the root chakra, you’ll want to read that one first. Continue reading to find out how you can tell if your sacral chakra could use some love!

When your sacral chakra is balanced, your relationships with people and with the world are balanced, harmonious, and nurturing, and you are not ruled by your emotions. The energy in your chakras are changing all the time depending on our circumstances, and that’s totally okay. But when we are consistently encountering the same types of situations that aren’t healthy for us, it can affect our chakras in a more profound way.

Think of it like water, which coincidentally happens to be the element associated with the sacral. The wind or tide moves the water against the shore, pulling sand away and depositing some back. It will erode over a really long period of time, but it’s usually manageable on a day to day basis as the tide also brings in more sand to deposit when it comes in. But if the energy of the waves is too great, too stormy, it can affect that shore faster and do more damage, something that will need to be addressed to prevent more serious issues to the ecosystem there. And so it is with your body’s energy centers (chakras).

The sacral is located about 3 inches below the bellybutton. It expands down to include the testicles and ovaries, and also encompasses the lower lumbar region of your back. Being unbalanced here can show up in a number of ways...

-Being ruled by your emotions
-Apathy or feeling numb
-Addictions
-Lack of pleasure in your life
-Co-dependency
-Lack of sexual desire
-Over-indulgence of fantasies/sexual addictions
-Anxiety
-Sexual dysfunction
-Problems with reproductive organs
-Lower back/hip issues
-Lower gastrointestinal issues
-Loss of creativity, feeling uninspired

Because the sacral chakra is all about FEELING and your relationship with experiencing the works in a pleasurable way, there are some easy things you can do to give your sacral a boost!

Make your favorite meal and eat it slowly, enjoying every bite. Get a massage. Think of the (healthy) thing that gives you (or gave you) the most pleasure and JUST DO IT! For me that looks like going back to Zumba. MOVE. Flow. Make love to your partner. Wear orange, the color of the sacral chakra. And of course, Reiki is a also a great way to get the energy flowing in a balanced way.

We ALL experience imbalance at times... it’s literally impossible to be perfectly balanced all the time. That’s not how this world works. There is no shame in this at all, only love. Imbalances happen because of many things, including trauma, and that’s nobodies fault. And in fact, because the sacral is the seat of the emotions, when you hold on to too many (ex. being shameful, regret, fear, disappointment etc) it affects this chakra even more.

So make like Elsa and let that sh*t go, because you are beautiful, you are loved, and you deserve to experience pleasure. ❤️

I’d love to hear your thoughts on this in the comments!

Healing doesn’t mean just physical healing...The emotional body can be healed as well through energy. And sometimes the healing is for the client AND the practitioner! 😳 A couple of weeks ago, I was giving Reiki to a client and the image of a beautiful blue butterfly 🦋 entered my minds eye. After the session, we talked about everything I saw and I asked her specifically about the blue butterfly and if it meant anything to her...

“Oh yes!” She said, as she began to tell me the story of what it means to her. “Have you ever been to the butterfly place in Massachusetts?” She asked me in the middle of her story.

I stood there for a moment and couldn’t believe what just came up. The first and only time I’ve been to The Butterfly Place was the day my brother in law passed away tragically in a car accident. That morning as I drove there with my daughter to meet friends when she was just 5 years old, there was something strange in the air. The only other time I felt that feeling was the morning of 9/11. As I was driving, I had this terrifying fear that I was going to lose control of the car. Later that night, it would be my brother in law who lost control.

The conversation brought up memories and validations for me, and also brought my attention to things surrounding that day that still needed healing. As I looked back on pictures from the Butterfly Place, I came across this one of my daughter. 🦋

The power and energy is real, the signs are all around you, you just have to pay attention. ❤️

If you’ve never had a reiki session before, this picture may not make much sense to you. It’s difficult to describe how a lot of people feel after a session, but if you can imagine feeling lighter, incredibly relaxed, walking away with a deeper connection and understanding of feelings, events, and people, and a knowing that all is well... that’s what you can expect. I’m pretty sure that’s how this unicorn is feeling too!

I knew I was an energy healer when I began seeing energies about a year and a half ago with my physical eyes. It was a very surprising discovery after a meditation one day, but as I dove deeper into trying to understand what was happening, it felt amazing. I’ve always been able to feel the energies of people and places for as long as I can remember, so why not see them too?

After lots of meditations and readings and learning, life lessons and openly sharing them, I started getting a lot of messages from people thanking me for sharing my experiences and how it helped them in some way. I started to realize I was a healer and I was working with lots of different energies.

Have you ever sensed how a friend was feeling even if they weren’t near you? Or walked into an old building and gotten goosebumps or chills? If yes, you are sensing energy as well!

Reiki is energy as well... Universal energy that has the ability to transform body, mind, and spirit.

I’d love to know... Have you had a Reiki session before? Did you enjoy it?
