What is Reiki?
Many people reach out and ask me, “What is Reiki?” Reiki is beautiful, divine, and intelligent energy that activates your own energy system’s ability to heal. It is high vibration and connects with the wisdom of your own energy, so that it can flow where it needs to in order to give you exactly what you need on a physical, psychological, and spiritual level. It also gives a deep sense of peace and wellbeing.
What are the Akashic Records?
As the consciousness of this planet shifts, more and more people are working on healing themselves, having spiritual awakenings, becoming aware of their divinity, and seeing past the illusions of society. It is a magical time to be incarnated on this planet. We are able to access parts of ourselves that were not available to previous generations. All of this can sound very mystical, but at the most basic level it is about finding joy in life and being true to who we really are.
What is Karma?
Karma is not about religion. It is not about being nice. It isn’t simply, “what goes around comes around.” Karma is an energetic mechanism that shapes our human experience. Our human experience is based on the karma we are carrying. Our psychology is the expression of our karma.
What is a Chakra?
There is so much content out there about chakra meanings that will tell you the colors that are associated with them, chakra meanings around body part, even chakra meanings around psychological themes. Everyone knows that chakras are a thing, but even with all of this content, I feel like they are under appreciated. I want to go deeper and showcase their real, day to day, value. I want to bring the chakras to life for you. If you can recognize the moment you feel a chakra off in your body, then you can do something to address it.
What is the Root Chakra?
When I think of the Root Chakra, I think of a tree. I love to say, “Root and Bend to Ascend.” In order for a tree to grow, it must be firmly rooted into the Earth. In order to evolve, we must first Root. This is the role of the Root Chakra. When the Root Chakra is healthy and balanced, we feel secure and stable. We are not in a place of fear or anxiety, rather we feel safe and calm.
What is the Sacral Chakra?
The Sacral Chakra is one of the most complicated chakras. There are so many layers to it and it can be a delicate balance for many people. At the most basic level, is it about feeling and flowing. Feeling physical sensations, feeling emotions, feeling sexual desire, feeling pleasure, but also flowing through the emotions, sensual experiences, sexual experiences, and using those feelings to allow creativity to flow through us.
What is the Solar Plexus Chakra?
Our sacral chakras are where desires lives, it is what gives us direction. When that energy rises to our solar plexus, we have the fire to take action on that desire. The Solar Plexus has a vibe of manifesting, taking power of your life and putting your dreams into action.
What is the Heart Chakra?
After the lower chakra tasks have been worked through, we reach outward to others in love. This is the Heart Chakra. It is no accident that it also includes our arms which help us to literally reach out and connect with others. As the center chakra, the Heart chakra is about balance. Through love, we open ourselves up to higher levels of consciousness. Love is a high vibration and healing energy. As souls, we are comprised of Divine Love. Love is our essence. It is inside us. Love is the magnet that binds the universe together.
What is the Throat Chakra?
When we enter the throat chakra, we are reaching above the physical lower chakras, and up into the realm of ether, to vibration and sound. We are integrating all that we are, and all that has manifested from the lower chakras into our authentic self which we project onto the world through our energetic vibration, our voice, and our words. It’s about purification. We are the purest versions of ourselves, by being authentic and truthful. By working through the issues of the lower chakras, we free ourselves from negativity. The vibration of the Throat Chakra, our voice, purifies our energy systems, as we communicate with balance and truth.
What is the Third Eye Chakra?
As it is above the Throat Chakra, the Third Eye Chakra is the visual extension of the words we choose, our authenticity, and our understanding of the truth about the world. In our Throat Chakra we find our authentic selves. From there, the energy rises to our Third Eye Chakra and we actually envision what life as our authentic selves look like. We picture what we want in life and send the energy of that image into the world. It is vision that is the basis of goal setting, and manifesting the lives we want. Our visions will be high vibration, or low vibration, based on what we believe to be true about the world.
What is the Crown Chakra?
An awakened Crown Chakra is constantly seeking out wisdom, as it questions previous beliefs. It integrates new understanding and new perspectives to evolve. This capacity to learn through the Crown Chakra shifts our vibration. The pattern of our lives breaks free of the circular hamster wheel, and with this consciousness it takes on the pattern of a spiral. With each new integration, we raise our vibration and expand our spiral growth pattern, mirroring the cosmic spiral. We will face the same challenges and struggles, with a slightly different or elevated perspective each time, integrating new learning as we slowly spiral, expand our consciousness, and ascend into alignment with our souls. Our universe is in a state of constant expansion along with us, making more space for our own expanding consciousness, as we are co-creating microcosms of our universe.
Soul Level Parenting
Our parenting as a society is always evolving. In the past 30 to 40 years, there has been a push to parent the “whole child”, taking into consideration their physical and emotional development, along with behavioral and environmental supports. We have been conscious of the various ways we can support our children to grow into their potential. While this is an improvement from previous generations, as a collective, we are still not fully embracing soul level parenting. To fully take a whole child perspective, we must also be conscious that our children are also unique energetic beings. We are all souls, in human bodies. As the French philosopher Pierre Teilhard de Chardin famously said, “We are spiritual beings having a human experience.” This is as true for us, as it is for our children. The question becomes, if we want to integrate awareness and support of the soul level into our parenting approaches, how can we do it? I can speak endlessly on this topic, but for the purposes of this article, it comes down to two main things. Seeing our truth, and truly seeing our children.
What Happens to our Souls when we Sleep?
In my work I have learned so much about what happens to our energy when we sleep. It is commonly known that our brains consolidate learning during our sleep. Often this will come through our dreams as we may dream about what we learned or experienced during the previous day. But so much more is happening beyond this, and essentially the possibilities are endless.
When we sleep, our souls are free to separate from our human bodies, as our physical form is resting. Our consciousness…our souls, are actually very active during sleep as the emotional guards of the human body are more fluid and uninhibited. Our souls may connect with other dimensions, connect with other souls, support our bodies’ healing, or even simply play.
My Visit to Mt. Shasta
In 2021, somehow, I came across “Mt. Shasta” on the internet. Once I fell upon it, I immediately felt called there. I visited various websites about Mt. Shasta, discovering that it is a spiritual mountain. I kept those tabs open on my phone, and did not close them for 3 years. I left them there as reminders of my intention to go there someday, when the timing was right. In 2023, I came across my old tabs on Mt. Shasta and did a little more research and learned that Mt. Shasta is the Root Chakra of the world. If you know me, you know how much I value chakras. Every person has chakras that resonate with them more than others, based on their spiritual journeys. The Root Chakra is a very important chakra for me. Mt. Shasta was calling me even louder.
My husband asked where in the world I wanted him to take me to celebrate my 40th birthday. Mt. Shasta. We needed to go to Mt. Shasta. I didn’t know much about Mt. Shasta at that point, but we booked our stay, following my intuition.
