Reiki Ruby Slippers!

So you got Reiki Level One way back When?   

Reiki is so much more than that simple little something you learned years ago… it has life changing potential that may, as yet, be mostly untapped in your life. If you have ever been attuned – at any level – and have “fallen off” the Reiki horse in pursuit of other interests in your life, you have a powerful resource at your fingertips.

I cannot tell you how many people I meet who say to me, when talking of Reiki, “Oh I was attuned once, years ago….” as if it were over and done with, or perhaps like getting another arm attached and not knowing what to do with it, their Reiki attunement has become a spare, and unused, appendage. Unlike some other forms of energy work that may be learned and abandoned over the years as you grow and go forward in pursuing your inner and outer paths in life, Reiki does not wear out or grow old. It also does not go away – even with complete dis-use!

Once that level of energy has been raised in you through attunement, it stays there.

Like a radio that has the ability to channel clear FM frequency instead of  static-filled AM, so do you. And unbeknownst to you, that is exactly what you are doing whenever you direct your energy toward anything in your life from the point of your attunement on. It’s like turning on the radio and voila! – you are on the FM bandwidth; you are bringing a higher level of energetic resonance to whatever you undertake in your life. If you look back to your attunement (however long ago) you may see a path of energy and development in your life, one that you may not even have been aware of, that has been opened and fed by your Reiki energy. I call this passive Reiki. You are not intentionally using or recognizing your Reiki capacity, but it is fueling your life.

And that may be all and exactly what you need from Reiki right now. Be thankful for it, acknowledge it, and keep on with your path, knowing that you have a heightened flow of life-giving energy running through you and into everything you do and everyone you meet. Just be aware that, like Dorothy with those Ruby Slippers, you can choose to use that Reiki energy actively at any time. Incorporating an active practice of self-Reiki in your life can bring about amazing results. If passive Reiki has attended your spiritual growth and healing quietly and in the background for some time, imagine the results when you begin to use those Reiki Ruby Slippers!
