Chellie Kammermeyer is on the podcast to talk about this with Colleen and Robyn Benelli. She talks about healing this part of ourselves, her own struggle and journey to heal it within herself, and how she now helps her clients and students transform it. This podcast is not about materialism or the “need for money or things”, actually quite the opposite. It’s about self worth, the act of receiving, our gifts and talents, contributing to the wellness of the world, healing culturally created beliefs, valuing being a healer as much as valuing lawyers and accountants, and paying our bills by doing this work so we can manifest the more important vision that we all have: healing ourselves, other people, and collectively trying to add more love to the world. Chellie also shares some exercises we can do right now to start our own healing p

In this article, Robyn Benelli and I present specific instructions on how to journey with Reiki, sharing our experiences and preferences, as well as techniques you can use, including imagination, invocation, conscious intention and use of the Distance symbol. Reiki energy can be used for spiritual guidance is to enter a "journey state.” A a journey state is defined as when a person enters an altered state of consciousness to connect with other spiritual dimensions and spiritual guides.

"REIKI AND SPIRITUAL GUIDANCE GO TOGETHER. Reiki naturally guides and empowers our higher consciousness and unifies it with our everyday consciousness, so that we can act with purpose in our lives. Reiki can guide you to answers for your questions whether they are practical, philosophical or spiritual in nature. It can help you develop skill with active and divine listening, with receiving divine guidance and using intuition and discernment so you can purposefully apply the divine guidance in your daily life. Two excellent ways to access Reiki consciousness for spiritual guidance are the use of Reiki symbols and entering a “journey state” where the ability to create, manifest, and heal is most effective." This is a quote from Colleen Benelli's article "Reiki and Spiritual Guidance". Listen along as she reads her article from the Fall 2018 issue of Reiki News Magazine.  The article can be downloaded at: https://reikilifestyle.com/reiki-for-spiritual-guidance/   Colleen can be reached at:  ReikiLifestyle.com co

Your imagination is much more than what you use to make things up with. Your imagination is another sense. It is the creative power in your conscious and unconscious mind. Einstein said, "Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution." In my RNM article, Reiki Heals the Imagination I write, “Our imagination gives us the ability to travel and makes it possible to experience whole worlds in our mind that are outside of our normal physical reality. In our imagination, we can remember more than our minds know.” We had technical difficulties with our recent Reiki Lifestyle® Online Reiki Circle Podcast. We hope to post it soon!
