I once heard that how we approach the first 90 days of the year is especially important because it sets the tone for everything that follows. I heard this in college and, for some reason, I’ve never forgotten it.
Each year as January begins, I’m aware that I have until the end of March to be especially mindful of how I meet life.
I don’t necessarily think of these first three months in terms of how much I can accomplish. For me, it’s more about refreshing the quality of care, attention, and respect I bring to whatever is in front of me. Of course, this becomes harder to remember when life gets busy, but that’s also why the days leading up to spring feel especially potent.
And I can’t think of a better way to close out this first quarter of the year than with a meditation on the 5 Reiki Principles.
Each month we’ve been sitting with these principles together, and it has truly been a game changer. So much has opened, and continues to open, in beautiful and unexpected ways.
For instance, the principle “Just for today, I will not anger” has led me into some faraway and dusty corners of my mind with my little Reiki lamp, bringing light to places I once thought might never heal.
Simply by noticing more of myself, I’ve begun to feel fundamentally better emotionally. And alongside that, new and wonderful experiences have been unfolding with a kind of brightness and magic that words can hardly describe. One such experience was being invited to offer my shamanic sessions in a monthly community healing event last month!
All I can truly say is:
Thank you, Reiki. Thank you, Reiki!
