Usui Shiki Reiki Ryoho
"Reiki" ("RAY-key") comes from the Japanese words "Rei", meaning "spiritually guided", and "Ki", meaning "life force energy". Developed in Japan in the late 19th century by Dr. Mikao Usui, it is a gentle and non-invasive system of natural healing that is passed on through a series of energetic 'attunements' from teacher to student.
The notion of a universal unseen life force has been spoken about in many ancient traditions and cultures. The Reiki system is one of many ways of tapping into and channeling this "Ki" (-known in other traditions as Chi/Qi, Prana or Orgone), helping us to balance ourselves on all levels - physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually.
Though it is spiritual in nature, Reiki is not a religion. It has no dogma, and there is nothing you must believe in order to receive, learn or use it. It will work regardless of your own personal belief systems. Having said this, Dr. Usui's system of Reiki is more than just the use of the energy. In order for it to be a holistic system, he intended that it also include a conscious, active commitment to improving oneself. If you decide to receive Reiki, you are always free to continue believing (or not) anything you choose and are encouraged to make your own decisions concerning your spiritual nature and path.
WHAT IS A REIKI SESSION LIKE?
During a Reiki session, the practitioner gently rests their hands on or a few inches above the client’s body, often focusing on the primary energy centers, or chakras, and intends for the Reiki to flow through them to the client. (The client typically lays fully clothed on a massage table for the treatment.) What is experienced varies from person to person and even from session to session. In addition to a state of deep relaxation, clients have reported feeling any or a combination of the following:
An overall sense of security, peacefulness and well-being
Physical sensations (i.e. warmth or coolness, tingling, muscle spasms or twitches)
Emotional release
Insight or clarity with regard to personal issues
Spiritual experiences
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF REIKI TREATMENT?
Reiki, above all, promotes deep relaxation. If you are open to healing yourself however, it also has many other benefits. Reiki can help with:
Headaches and migraines
Injuries; post-surgical recovery
Arthritis, fibromyalgia and chronic pain management
Stress & anxiety
Depression
Symptoms of illnesses/disorders, such as heart disease, cancer & HIV/AIDS
Negative side-effects of medications and standard medical treatments
…and so much more
EMF Balancing Technique, Phases I-IV
Modern scientists have proven the existence of electromagnetic fields (EMFs) - invisible lines of electrical force or currents. These fields not only surround power lines and electrical equipment, but also living systems such as the human body.
The EMF BALANCING TECHNIQUE®, developed by Peggy Phoenix Dubro, is the energy system designed to work with the "Universal Calibration Lattice™", a system in our human energy anatomy. An EMF Balancing Technique® session enables you to experience your own electromagnetic energy field and the patterns within it.
As you lay fully clothed on a massage table, the practitioner carries out a series of graceful Tai Chi-like movements, passing their hands through the portions of the Universal Calibration Lattice™ that completely surround your body. During some parts of the session the practitioner will gently place their hands on the body to facilitate the flow of energy. In addition to the energy work, at various stages a series of affirmations and empowering phrases are recited. These help your body, mind and soul to integrate the healing work being done.
Each session provides a powerful realignment within your energy anatomy and a strengthening of your UCL, allowing it to permanently carry a greater electrical charge. It can be an incredibly deep, relaxing and amazing experience!
THE FIRST FOUR PHASES
I am certified to practice Phases I-IV of the EMF Balancing Technique®. These are to be performed on you in numerical order - one Phase per session. After you have received all four Phases, you may repeat any of them or have combination sessions done (i.e. I&II, III&IV, or I&IV).
PHASE I: WISDOM AND EMOTION - Balancing the intelligence of the head(mind) with that of the heart...Are your reactions mainly through strong emotion, lacking in reasoning or wisdom? Or do you think too much without allowing your emotions to factor into the equation? A more balanced, integrated Self is going to make life decisions more potent and meaningful. "Think with your heart and feel with your mind!"
PHASE II: SELF-DIRECTION AND SELF-SUPPORT - Releasing excess energy surrounding old events (from your personal history, hereditary or ancestral patterns, past-life information) that no longer serves you, while retaining the widsom of those valuable experiences with grace and gratitude for all you have learned. Encourages strong forward momentum/self-support and a sturdy spiritual backbone.
PHASE III: RADIATING CORE ENERGY - Strengthening and intensifying your 'core energy' - your ability to radiate the column of light and energy fibers that run throughout the center of your being (-your golden pillar of inner wisdom and strength). Focuses on clearing the smaller, lesser known energy centers, or chakras, with the notion that "it's not the mountain that will wear you out, but the grain of sand in your shoe"! Also promotes a union of the male and female aspects of Universal Energy within your energy anatomy, creating a strong alignment of the entire chakra system. Encourages you to live more in the 'now' and to express more of your spiritual intelligence as you take a more active role in co-creating your world.
PHASE IV: ENERGETIC ACCOMPLISHMENT & FUTURE POTENTIAL - More calibrating and strengthening of the UCL so that you may joyfully acknowledge and co-create/manifest your potential..! Teaches you how to use the energy of the lattice to enhance the outcome of your actions and intentions (what you deserve/want) with confidence and love. You are shifting yourself into an awareness of the present moment, as you radiate your core energy, and remain balanced with the wisdom of your history and the potential of your future.
The EMF Balancing Technique® helps you to become balanced with the energy of the Earth below and with the energy of All That Is above. Your awareness of these connections helps you to be fully present in your body and open to the knowledge that you need to create the most enlightened life you can.
I feel honored to be able to provide this service for others - it is very beautiful and sacred work. As Peggy Phoenix Dubro says, "Encouraging the empowerment of another human being is a privilege, and also a gift. When you empower another, you empower yourself."
I also offer facilitation in the following intuitive/shamanic healing techniques:
- Guided Meditation/Ecstatic Journeying instruction - connect with your own innate wisdom & learn to develop & trust your own intuition
- Boundless Spirit Creator sessions - through a combination of intuitive counseling & healing methods, I work with you to help transform old energies, patterns and belief systems and guide you in becoming a conscious creator of your life!
- DreamWalker Death Facilitator™ (see below)
"The word "shaman" in the original Tungus language refers to a person who makes journeys to non-ordinary reality in an altered state of consciousness... Shamans are often called "see-ers" (seers), or "people who know" in their tribal languages, because they are involved in a system of knowledge based on firsthand experience. Shamanism is not a belief system. It's based on personal experiments conducted to heal, to get information, or do other things...
"Shamanism is a path of knowledge, not of faith, and that knowledge cannot come from me or anyone else in this reality. To acquire that knowledge, including the knowledge of the reality of the spirits, it is necessary to step through the shaman's doorway and acquire empirical evidence."
~ Michael Harner, anthropologist and founder of the Foundation for Shamanic Studies
DreamWalker Death Facilitator™:
Over the centuries, for a multitude of reasons, the human death process has become marginalized and largely turned into one of fear and indignity. In many of our ancient cultures however, it was customary for a dying person to have someone who acted as a psychopomp - one who guided the departing soul from the earthly dimensions back to the angelic, or celestial realms.
Well, this tradition is returning to our times. The DreamWalker Death Facilitator™ brings dignity and beauty back to the death experience, as well as love and support to the individual in transition, and comfort to their family. Every death is as sacred and natural as every birth. A DreamWalker 'midwifes' the soul back Home.
The DreamWalker will help the client gently release the physical body and escort them to the other side of ' the Veil'. Then, they will safely and joyfully hold their client's energy in the non-physical Earth realms throughout their three-day transition and funeral process. Finally, when they are ready, the DreamWalker will guide the client to the 'Bridge of Flowers', where they are escorted by the highest order of celestial beings on to the final portion of their transition journey.
As a certified DreamWalker Death Facilitator™, I am able to make a connection with a person, and meet them on the other side of our conscious reality - a process parallel in feel to shamanic, or ecstatic journeying:
Before the physical death, this allows me to visit and 'talk' with them while they are asleep or in a coma. During this period of transition and after they have left their physical body, they can call to me when they desire, and my dreams are their experiences. They are often traveling and creating a place for themselves in another reality, which they share with me.
Once they make the physical Death/Transition, I am with them at their funeral. They often are feeling an ecstatic energetic release and freedom from the 3-D body, combined with the powerful emotions of the loved ones left behind. The DreamWalk typically continues for 4-10 days after the Death/Transition. I am there journeying with them daily in the non-physical realms, recording all they do and experience for the family left behind. They often create their journey with their beloved pets at their side, and visit favorite places, their childhood home, and possibly family or friends they meet along the way. I accompany them, reminding them there is much to see and do. There are several 'doorways' (levels of consciousness) to go through, if they choose to make the entire journey. The ultimate is the 'Bridge of Flowers'. At this crossing, I only go half-way across with them, at which point they are greeted by beings of the Angelic Order, their guides, loved ones and their True Self. It is a glorious, emotional, loving celebration of that Soul with no comparison on our earth plane!
I've spent a lot of time here explaining this because I feel it is such important work. After all, who wouldn't want someone to hold their hand as they are crossing over, and then accompany them on their journey Home? A comforting and dignified way of passing, I think - both for the dying one and those closest to them.
Please contact me for further information.
