Some of my regular readers might be wondering at this point, “So how is the new job going? Y’know, the one that you said was going to keep you from blogging for a couple of weeks, which turned out to be more like six. Just sayin’.” Mea culpa. I should know myself well enough toContinue reading “Office Reiki”

Greetings from Mother Earth
After my morning shower/Reiki call in I sat on the bed and grounded. My original intention was to contact Archangel Zadkiel as I did yesterday morning, to continue and better document a conversation we were having, but when I grounded I felt mother earth come through me so strongly that I pursued that. I immediatelyContinue reading “Greetings from Mother Earth”
On Letting Go of Past Pain
There is a past relationship that sometimes makes me swell with anger and hurt. We split over ten years ago, and the pain doesn’t dominate my life like it once did, but on those occasions when it does come it’s like being caught in the tide, with a breaker rolling over me – it’s overwhelming.Continue reading “On Letting Go of Past Pain”
Transiting from One Job to the Next at the Twenty-Post Milestone
Today marks the last day in my current employment situation. On Monday week, when I’m sitting in front of the word processor at my new tech writing job, I will actually have to devote time to writing for the company. (see “The Gift of Time” for background about this point). I’m grateful to the companyContinue reading “Transiting from One Job to the Next at the Twenty-Post Milestone”
Everyday Gratitude
Before I made a conscious decision to more spiritually balance my life, gratitude was something that was reserved for times when I was on the receiving end of wonderfully fulfilled expectations or when I experienced great “luck”, while ingratitude was freely given for anything less than ideal or spectacular. Examples are listed in the followingContinue reading “Everyday Gratitude”
The Power of Self Forgiveness
Is anyone more critical of us than ourselves? As we pass through life we can amass a collection of unattained goals, missed opportunities, judgement errors regrettable actions we took or didn’t take, and other failings. When we hold on to these failings we can let them define who we are: “I’m not able to doContinue reading “The Power of Self Forgiveness”
Repeat as Needed, Calm Me in the Morning
In my experience, nothing provides a fast acting sense of peace as well as feeding a baby. Probably because I’m picking up on the baby’s emotions, like I was with one of the twins this morning. One second he was a bit distressed, wondering where his next meal was coming from (I presume, it’s beenContinue reading “Repeat as Needed, Calm Me in the Morning”
Putting the “Me” in “Time”
I want to start by saying that I’m not having a moan in what follows, just making a point about “me” time, and being kind to all living things. I thought I should mention that up front in light of yesterday’s post, where I took so long to get to the point that I’m sureContinue reading “Putting the “Me” in “Time””
Transition Basketball
I’ve been up late these past few months with a couple of young lads who are on the bottle every night. Well, they are only ten weeks old, and quite vocal about having their needs met. The three of us have been hanging out in front of the TV watching the NBA playoffs, thanks toContinue reading “Transition Basketball”
Found a Job
After being made redundant last year from my technical writing job, I attended three interviews before taking my current position. The time frame corresponded to the gap between my Reiki II and Reiki Master workshops. I’m sure I was still compartmentalizing Reiki at the time. The first position I went for wasn’t a good matchContinue reading “Found a Job”
