Who would attempt to fly with
the tiny wings of the sparrow
when the mighty power of the
eagle has been given to him?

Tis the Season


Gratitude is the best attitude

As crazy as it seems it is already December and the holiday season is here ready or not! These are stressful times we are living in. Everyone is just trying their best to juggle health, family, friends, and work not to mention trying to squeeze in some fun for ourselves once in awhile!
Read the 5 Reiki principles whenever you find yourself getting stressed. Take a deep breath and remind yourself what this season is really about.
Our stress is measured by how we react to certain stressors in our lives. We can't get rid of bills, crowded malls and relatives visiting but we can control our reactions to these things. If you can breathe through it, shake it off and start over your health will be better, you will feel happier and so will your family.

The Five Reiki Principles 
by Dr.Mikao Usui


I - Just for today, I will not be angry.
Anger at others or oneself or at the whole world, creates serious blockages in one's energy. It is the most complex inner enemy.
Reiki is an excellent tool to remove anger blockages which have accumulated in the body over years, but it cannot remove the residue of current anger which occurs daily.
Letting go of anger. brings Peace into the Mind.

II - Just for today, I will not worry.
While anger deals with past and present events, worry deals with future ones. Although worry is not always a negative phenomena, endless worries may fill one's head, and each one bores a small hole in one's body and soul. While anger requires a focused Reiki treatment to remove obstacles, worry requires the energy to be spread throughout the entire body.
Letting go of worry, brings healing into the Body.

III - Just for today, I will be grateful.
Be grateful from your hart inward. Inner intention is the important element in this principle. Simple things as thanks, forgiveness, smile, good words, gratitude can improve others life and make them happy.
Being thankful brings Joy into the Spirit.

IV - Just for today, I will do my work honestly.
Support yourself and your family respectably, without harming others. Earn a respectable living, live a life of honor.
Working Honestly brings Abundance into the Soul.

V- Just for today, I will be kind to every living thing.
Honor your parents, honor your teachers, honor your elders.
Being Kind brings Love into the Will.

  1. Jen I stumbled across your blog totally on accident when I googled something else - but then it became more fortuitous than accidental. We are living in Quogue and if you are teaching yoga in WHB I would love to come to your studio - susienaughton@gmail.com
