I was told in meditation recently "Only Love is Real" and found it a particularly pertinent message as I find myself dealing with one of the biggest challenges of my life. I have had to draw on my inner strength and knowledge to deal with the challenge in a loving way despite the fact that at times I have felt angry and frustrated with the whole situation. It is comforting to know that I am not the only one facing big challenges as it has become apparent that a lot of people are in this situation at the moment. Its as if there is a real 'clearout' going on of old negative behaviour and thought patterns which no longer serve us. I feel that this is a way of us developing not only as humans but as spiritual beings as well. So many people seem to have lost touch with their spirituality and many others work on a spiritual level but dont realise it.My own interpretation of spirituality is to have a greater understanding of yourself and who you really are as well as an understanding of your connection to the universe and everything and everyone within it.The meditation that I did really brought home to me that whatever happens the most important thing is to do and say everything with Unconditional Love. Of course its not just a specific situation or person that needs to be sent unconditional love. It is important to love yourself unconditionally too which will enable you to be more accepting of the outcomes of situations and yourself.
Often we fix our eyes on a specific outcome yet that may not be the best outcome for everyone concerned. Trusting that the Universe will provide the best outcome and going with the flow means that challenges become less challenging. I often picture challenges on my path as being boulders sittting in the way and that however big they may seem at the time, there is always a way round them. Being able to stay calm and centred makes these situations much easier to deal with and when you are able to accept that whatever decision you make at the time is the right decision even if you dont get the outcome you were hoping for, then there will be growth both as a human and a spiritual being. Beating yourself up because you feel you made the wrong decision or because you didnt get the outcome you wanted just causes damage to yourself esteem and can make progress along your path more testing!
Having used Meditation and worked with the Reiki energy for some years now I find it much easier to 'Go with the flow' and allow things to drop into place. Both Reiki and Meditation can help to release negative thoughts, emotions and behaviour patterns thereby offering fresh eyes to look at a situation with. as well as a calmer way of dealing with things. It has also become easier to find the positive in every situation and challenge that I am faced with which offers greater understanding as to why the situation has arisen.
Both Reiki and Meditation are tools to help you in your everyday life which anyone and everyone can learrn how to do. They wont stop stressful situations occurring but when incorporated into your daily routine they bring balance and harmony back into your life as well as peace, happiness and love. The focus for Reiki 1 is on learning to heal ourselves by bringing body mind and spirit back into balance and even at Master Teacher level the focus should still be on healing yourself first.Meditation equips us with a way of connecting with ourselves so that we can draw on the inner knowing and knowledge that we already have in order to go with the flow in a calm and centred way. The end result being a calmer way of life which is balanced and harmonious and filled with love, peace and happiness and a sense of health and wellbeing. Of course it is also important to remember that when our bodies are really stressed they become depleted of Vitamins B and C and so redressing the balance on a physical level as well is important. Nutricalm by Nature's Sunshine is a supplement which replaces both vitamins B and C and has cammomile in it which has a calming effect and is therefore very helpful when we are stressed.
