Be who you are
and say what you feel,
because those who mind
don't matter,
and those who matter
don't mind."
-Dr. Seuss
"WHAT YOU ARE IS
WHAT YOU HAVE BEEN,
WHAT YOU WILL BE
IS WHAT YOU DO NOW."
- The Buddha
The thing you fear most
has no power.
Your fear of it
is what has the power.
Facing the truth
really will
set you free.

REIKI TRAINING
Reiki (pronounced "ray kee")
is a wonderfully gentle energy.
It can be given to yourself,
to another special person,
or to any living thing.
Reiki helps you reach
your calm center where,
- HEALING -
can take place
on many levels.
Reiki can also
bring clarity,
where what is really
valuable and important
in your life becomes
simply evident.
Answers to ongoing
questions and challenges
can come easier
with Reiki.
Reiki can
truly change
your life.
I offer Reiki classes,
on a continous basis,
in my Winter Park office,
close to downtown Orlando.
My classes are very small,
and often one-on-one.
The pace is relaxed.
My Reiki classes
meet once a week,
for 2 to 3 hours,
over several weeks.
This will allow you to
receive and incorporate
the energy and the information
in a totally natural way.
You'll have plenty of time
to practice and ask questions.
You'll finish the training
with a complete workbook
a handsome certificate,
and comfortable competence.
You'll also have my
continuing availability.
I want Reiki to find
a happy home with you.
So, let your heart be your guide.
Call me when you're ready
to begin a new chapter in your life
with Reiki.
Understand that the right
to choose your own path
is a sacred privilege.
Use it.
Dwell in possibility.
-Ophah Winfrey
TRANSITIONS
More and more,
the people who
come to me
appear to be
in some form of
transition.
It could be that
they recently moved
to the area, or are
in the process of
moving away,
with all the new
beginnings and endings
associated with that.
Some people have had someone
close to them leave as a result
of death of the physical body,
or the end of a relationship.
Some are looking for
the best way to let go
of something from their past
which no longer serves them.
Some see the vast possibilities
ahead of them, and are listening
for that inner voice of wisdom
to guide them on the correct path.
EACH OF THEM IS SEEKING SOMETHING.
AND THEY COME FOR A MASSAGE.
I ask myself...
"What are they hoping for?"
"Why did they choose me?"
"How can I best serve them?"
It's always an honor,
and a humbling one at that,
for me to somehow add a piece
to their life puzzle,
to create a safe space,
where clarity and peace
can once again enter
their lives.
Sometimes I see a person
only once or twice,
and then they disappear.
When that happens,
I wonder if they found
what they were looking for.
I trust that they did,
and I give thanks that I was
somehow able to help them.
And I send them blessings
for their future growth
and happiness.
Sometimes I witness
the transformations
in individuals.
What a wonderful gift
it is to see someone
light up with new
energy and insight!
So, I've learned to respect
the fact that MASSAGE
can be much more than
the manipulation of muscles
or simple relaxation.
And I honor all who come to me,
whether they're in transition or not,
as I create an experience
which I always hope
will serve their needs,
and their spirit.
Love yourself first
and everything else
falls into line.
You really have
to love yourself
to get anything done
in this world.
-Lucille Ball
A GOOD BOOK
Isn't it funny how
wonderful books, like great people,
seem to show up in your life
exactly when you need them?
Well, according to the book
I'm reading right now,
it's not funny at all.
It's just the natural progression
of creating your own reality.
The book is called, "Ask and It Is Given,
Learning to Manifest Your Desires",
by Esther and Jerry Hicks.
The basic premise of the book
is that what we think about,
whether it's what we label as
"good" or "bad",
"wanted" or "unwanted",
will eventually manifest
in our life experience.
The writing in this book
is very simple.
It's actually a
"remembering" of
what we once knew
very clearly.
I'd like to share
just a few lines
from this book with you.
"The key to bringing something into your
experience
that you desire
is to achieve
vibrational HARMONY
with what you desire.
And the easiest way
for you to achieve
vibrational harmony
with it is to
imagine having it,
pretend that it is already
in your experience,
flow your thoughts
toward the enjoyment
of the experience,
and as you practice
those thoughts and
begin to consistently
offer that vibration,
you will then be
in the place of
allowing that
into your experience."
Thanks for allowing me to share
this with you.
If you decide to get this book,
I hope it's filled with
valuable information to
help you on your journey!

Somebody should tell us,
right at the start of our lives,
that we are dying.
Then we might live
life to the limit,
every minute of every day.
Do it! I say.
Whatever you want to do,
do it now!
There are only
so many tomorrows.

ABRAHAM'S TEACHINGS IN BRIEF
Here is the essence of the Abraham-Hicks message, distilled from workshops with Abraham since 1986.
YOU ARE A PHYSICAL EXTENSION
OF ALL THAT WHICH IS NON-PHYSICAL.
All-That-Is, or God, is not finished
and waiting for you to catch up.
You are the leading edge of thought,
here seeking more:
more of all that feels good to you,
more of that which is fresh
and gloriously uplifting.
(You are, in essence,
bringing heaven to earth.)
YOU ARE HERE IN THIS BODY
BECAUSE YOU CHOSE TO BE HERE.
You wanted the opportunity to
experience this delicious contrast
in time and space,
and with great anticipation
you came to co-create with
other joy-seeking beings,
to fine-tune the process
of deliberate thought.
(What, where, when and
with whom are your choices, too.)
THE BASIS OF YOUR LIFE
IS FREEDOM;
THE PURPOSE OF YOUR LIFE
IS JOY.
You are free to choose to discover
new avenues for your joy.
In your joy you will grow;
and in your growth you will
add to the growth of All-That-Is.
(However, you are also free
to choose bondage or pain...
but everything anyone chooses
is only because they believe
it will help them feel better.)
YOU ARE A CREATOR;
YOU CREATE WITH
YOUR EVERY THOUGHT.
You often create by default,
for you are getting what you
are giving your attention to
wanted or unwanted
but you know by how it feels
if what you are getting (creating)
is what you are wanting or
if it is not what you are wanting.
(Where is your attention focused?)
ANYTHING THAT YOU CAN IMAGINE
IS YOURS TO BE OR DO OR HAVE.
As you ask yourself why you want it,
the essence of your desire is activated,
and the Universe begins to bring it to you.
The more intense your positive feelings,
the faster it is coming to you.
(It is as easy to create a castle
as a button.)
YOU ARE CHOOSING
YOUR CREATIONS
AS YOU ARE CHOOSING
YOUR THOUGHTS.
Your loving, Inner Being offers
guidance in the form of emotion.
Entertain a wanted or unwanted thought
and you feel a wanted or unwanted emotion.
Choose to change the thought and
you've changed the emotion and the creation.
(Make more choices in every day.)
THE UNIVERSE ADORES YOU;
FOR IT KNOWS YOUR
BROADEST INTENTIONS.
You have come to earth
with great intentions,
and the Universe
constantly guides you
on your chosen path.
When you are feeling good,
you are, in that moment, allowing
more of that which you have intended
from your broader perspective.
(You are Spirit Incarnate.)
RELAX INTO YOUR
NATURAL WELL-BEING.
ALL IS WELL.
(REALLY IT IS!)
The essence of all that you appreciate
is constantly flowing into your reality.
As you find more things to appreciate,
your state of appreciation opens more
avenues to more to feel appreciation for.
(As you think you vibrate.
As you vibrate you attract.)
YOU ARE A CREATOR
IN THOUGHTWAYS ON
YOUR UNIQUE PATH OF JOY.
No one can limit where you
can direct your thought.
There are no limits to your
joyous journeys to experience.
On the path to your happiness
you will discover all that you
want to be or do or have.
(Allowing others their experiences
allows you yours.)
ACTIONS TO BE TAKEN
AND MONEY TO BE EXCHANGED
ARE BY-PRODUCTS
OF YOUR FOCUS ON JOY.
On your deliberately joyous journey
your actions will be inspired,
your resources will be abundant
and you will know by the way you feel
that you are fulfilling your reason for life.
(Most have this one backwards,
therefore most feel little joy
in their actions or their possessions.)
YOU MAY APPROPRIATELY
DEPART YOUR BODY
WITHOUT ILLNESS OR PAIN.
You need not attract illness
or pain as an excuse to leave.
Your natural state coming,
remaining or leaving is
that of health
and of Well-being.
(You are free to choose otherwise.)
YOU CAN NOT DIE; YOU ARE EVERLASTING LIFE.
In grace, you may choose to relax
and allow your gentle transition back
into your Non-physical state of pure,
positive Energy.
YOUR NATURAL STATE IS
THAT OF FOREVERNESS.
(Have fun with all of this.
Lighten up! You can't get it wrong.)
P.S. It is not necessary for even
one other person to understand
the Laws of the Universe or
the processes that we are offering here
in order for you to have a wonderful,
happy, productive Life Experience
for you are the attractor
of your experience.
JUST YOU!
Until next time, my best to all of you!
Enjoy the beauty of today.
