I am hoping for some Reiki to help me through a painful period of loss, isolation and fear. I think I need inner strength, courage and healing to help me through this scary and painful time.

Thank you, Amie

Amie,

This prayer from my Roman Catholic heritage (St. Frances De Sales) came to me recently during a 35-day stay at a mental hospital.

It has yearning, confidence, richness, sweet Mother-love ...

I often speak it out loud, slowly, sometimes to Spirit, to a tree, or to God as is in the original text. I adapted it for New Agers. Hopefully, Frances will forgive.

Know this: you are, indeed, perfectly protected; fear is an illusion. I change the "you" second person to "I" first person, begging Frances' forgiveness one more time as well. The image of being held in difficult times is what draws me to this prayer.

Blessings,

Boh

Be at Peace

~

I do not look forward in fear to the changes of my life;

but rather, look to them with full hope as they arise.

Spirit, whose very own IAM,

will deliver me from out of them.

Spirit has kept me hitherto,

and shall lead me safely through all things;

and when I cannot stand it,

Spirit will bury me in Its embrace(arms).

I do not fear what may happen tomorrow;

the same everlasting Spirit/Healing-Holy Pattern

which cares for me today

will take care of me then and everyday.

Spirit will either shield me from suffering,

or give me unfailing strength to bear it.

Be at peace,

and put aside all anxious thoughts and imagination.

~

Say it until your heart is calm. Fear, worry, anxiousness are products of the imagination.

You can do stretches under a tree, especially effective at night with full moon and stars (on sleeping bag if London is cool).

You are in my heart this night, dear sister.

Thank you!

May I ask how distance reiki works, I don't think I understand it fully (am still a complete Reiki beginner!)

Amie.x. :D

- I would say that the energy works in the ways that we utilize it. Our Intentions and Mindfulness in working with the energy are most important - really nothing more complicated than that

>:-}}

- distance Reiki is really only a matter of the Practitioner getting the energy to the Recipient. After that it is up to the Recipient to utilize the energy.

- the energy in distance Reiki is the same as the energy in hands-on Reiki practices

- not getting one's personal energy involved in the reiki practices is important also whether doing hands-on or distance work

- hope this helps
