This month's meditation class topic is "Self Reiki."

Reiki is a japanese system of techniques for natural healing. Similar to "laying on of hands" techniques found in different cultures, Reiki specifically shows students how to move and shape healing energy in themselves and their world. During this time of meditation it is important to be completely relaxed. So make yourself as comfortable as possible for this journey. For me personally I like to meditate on my sheepskin rugs. For each person it is different but to get the most out of this experience it is important to start in your place of zen.

Are you tired of feeling stressed out, anxious and easily distracted?

Feel like you can't "turn off" your mind and give yourself a rest?

Wondering what the heck meditation really is exactly?

To many people, meditation is a mystery or seems impossible. Still others think you have to be some monk cooped up in a mountain all day and night to meditate -- but this is totally not true!

It's actually quite easy -- you can even start meditating in just 10 seconds right here and now! That is, you can do it if you change your mindset about what meditation is.

Watch the above video to learn how you can get started meditating now!

"I can't meditate."

This week, Spirit is asking that we cover an introduction to meditation.

Well it's about time! I can't tell you how many people I've met, not only over the course of doing my work over these last few years, but also even on a daily basis or when I'm out networking to share what we do here at the dojo for more people, who ask me the same questions about this.

So many people are asking, "Well how exactly do I get started with meditation?" "What is it?" "What's the right way?" I shrink, by the way, from that question “What's the right way to do meditations?” Your way is the right way.

Here's why: what matters most is how you feel.

The more you're able to create a healing, peaceful, calm, clear, and confident state within you, the better! It’s essential that you do whatever it takes to get yourself to a space of clarity, confidence, calm and health.

This is my intention that I hold whenever I'm teaching meditation or whenever I'm doing it for myself, doing energy work, or speaking, or sharing: that you find whatever you need to do to get to the space is the right for you.

One of the very first techniques for meditation that I learned from my Guides to start sharing with others as well as what I mastered first what I call “The Calm-Down Breath.”

Breathwork in general, if you want to Google that, as an approach to meditation is brilliant for stress relief and creating a better space of homeostasis: that calm, clarity and peacefulness that should be a product of a regular meditative practice.

If you're not feeling like you're moving towards a greater state of health and balance, or a greater state of self-awareness and self-acceptance as a result of your meditative practice, you're doing it “wrong.”

I never really say that, but in general if what you're doing isn't increasing the good in your life, or bringing you closer to who you really are, then stop. Just stop!

Know This: If what you're doing right now isn't increasing the good in your life in some way, then stop. Just STOP! #focus #selfcare

If you're in a meditation class that makes you feel inferior, or if you're in a presence of someone who makes you feel less of yourself and more of them, and the “them” that you're becoming isn't a reflection of who you really are and isn't resonating, put the brakes on it!

That's the type of permission that we need to create in our own selves: that if this isn't increasing my joy, if this isn't bringing me more love, if this isn't expanding my horizons I am free to go.

Spirit really wants you to know that the purpose of meditation is to bring love to your mental “dragons” or “monkey mind” of fear and people-pleasing.

The act of meditating is coming into your inner space mentally and emotionally, as well as spiritually speaking and physically, but really from a mental driven exercise.

All of the other parts of life – the emotional, physical, spiritual, social, financial, nutritional – all of the others outside of the mental aspect of meditation, those are all effects of your mental focus on a mental exercise.

First and foremost, let’s define it. Exactly, what the heck is meditation? It's mental exercise. What are we exercising? What muscle are we flexing, or massaging, activating or exploring, and learning about? What muscle? That is the muscle of “Relaxed Focus.”

In and of itself the idea of Relaxed Focus is a spiritual practice, it's a mystery until you really start encountering her first hand through meditation.

If we are able to maintain a state of Relaxed Focus, then all those other areas of life – the physical, emotional, social, financial, environmental, etc. – are affected.

When you're getting started meditating, a great way to work with getting used to it is the Calm Down Breath.

It's a simple mental exercise of inhaling the thought and intention “calm” and exhaling the thought and intention “down.” It’s that simple.

As you're inhaling you're thinking the word “calm,” as you exhale you’re thinking the word “down.” Imagine that as you inhale, you can feel calm moving through your body, the idea, the image of what it would look like.

Then imagine that as you exhale, you can feel this “energy” moving down and releasing out of your body. Once you get used to imagining that, what you want to do is repeat this form of deep breathing for ten seconds.

Try it now. You have ten seconds right now to practice breathing the Calm Down Breath...

Did you feel that word and intention move through you?

Did you notice any shift in your energy or adjustment in your body?

Did you notice that your mind had to redirect?

Maybe you need to close your eyes so you could focus better on the sensations and imaginations.

By the way, congratulations! You just meditated for ten seconds!

It's that easy getting started. Your next step is that to increase the time or the temporal value you assign to meditate. You can go for ten seconds and next set your cell phone timer for 1, 3 then 5 minutes. You hit the timer and then it does the countdown, just close your eyes and continue thinking “calm down,” inhaling calm and exhaling down.

The Calm Down Breath, just as a practice, a mental exercise can affect your physiology positively, the more temporal value you assign to it.

It can affect other areas of your life too because your mindset is shifting and that is the power of meditation.

There is also another very simple technique to add on to The Calm Down Breath, that can supercharge your ability to focus and get more things done with less effort, help you tame your monkey mind in the moment, and turn down anxiety, stress and distracting thoughts.

You’ll have to watch the rest of this week’s video strategy to find out what it is!

In Love and Light,

Victoria.

The post Love Letters | Getting Started with Meditation appeared first on Sensei Victoria Whitfield.

Do you feel exhausted after talking to certain people and don't know why?

Annoyed how certain activities suck up way more of your time, yet leave you feeling like nothing much has actually gotten done?

Frustrated that no matter how much you give at work or at your organization, the more they ask of you?

There's a term for things that drain your energy -- spiritually, physically, emotionally, financially, etc. -- and it's called an Energy Vampire.

As hard-working, sensitive, loving and giving people, we tend to attract them -- Yikes!

Watch the above video to learn what an Energy Vampire is, and what to do about it.

"Blah, blah! I 'vant to suck your blood!"

This week’s topic is Energy Vampires.

Now, the vampires we're referring to you are not like the movies  where someone comes up to you, bites you on the neck and says, “ha! I got your energy!” drinking it out of you in the literal sense. No, this is very different.

Not everybody knows what an energy vampire is, but this Love Letter is for those who don't know what to do and don't know what an energy vampire is, and as well as for those of us who know all too well what they are, but don't know what to do about it. So let's get to it!

An energy vampire is someone or some thing – like an activity, or a space, an item – that for whatever reason when you are in its presence for an certain period of time, the more you're around them, the more drain you feel emotionally and physically.

What does that mean? The person, place, or thing could be really positive. It could be in Florida, a sunny day at the beach, and everything is supposed to be amazing, right?

You could be at a party spending all this time with these great people who are supposed to be really nice and they're your friends and family, or they're supposed to be your significant other or your children, or your pet, or even your business.

But it still drains you.

Here's how to tell if you're being drained:

If you are in this person, place, or thing's presence for let's say one hour

1) Do you feel more energized, do you feel excited, happy, wired, inspired, lifted up and encouraged?

2) Or after an hour in their presence, do you feel on guard, small, or hiding, or are you saying to yourself “ah, I'm getting tired.”?

The exhaustion starts setting in physically as well as emotionally. You say to yourself “I feel like I'm just talking to a brick wall here. We're getting nowhere, and the more energy I exert, it's like it's not enough.”

The more you give, the more, it takes, or the more hats you have to wear in order to be good enough or acceptable.

The person will tell you more of their life story – and you have to hear it in order for them to "make you understand" how they feel – and they keep talking about how “this happened to me, this and then this happened too...”

They feel great because they got to dump, dump, dump on you.

They’ll often start by saying something like “I just want to share.” or “Let me just get this off my chest” and onto yours, or “Just one more thing” over and over... Sound familiar?

Know This: My time and My space are a "No Dumping Zone." #affirmation #selfcare

Someone in the energy just told me to mention that in psychology, there is a phenomena called the “Doorknob Effect.” An example of this comes up often socially.

Imagine it's the end of your time together with someone – maybe you're doing a session with somebody or maybe someone came over for tea and just to talk and hang out – and you say: "Oh, well, time to go. I got to get going" so you can wrap things up.

You both walk over to the door, and then they touch the doorknob, stop and say, "Oh! One more thing I just thought of..."

It's like the doorknob can activate that “one more thing” for them. Whereas you on the other end are may be thinking, "Oh my god, I gotta go. I want to pee." Yeah... Energy vampires.

Not only on that level, but maybe we're in a relationship with one of them. Sometimes they not only suck our emotional energy and our physical energy, but also our financial energy.

They keep asking you for more, more, more. "Oh, I can't play this bill. Can you cover it?" Or, "Oh, I missed this." Or, "I really want that." It's just an escalation.

Here's the thing: We always want to give abundantly when we feel safe to, but it's important to tune in to how YOU feel when you're giving.

It helps to ask yourself, first: “okay, do I feel like I'm getting so much more spiritually and emotionally? Do I feel supported and sparkling when I give in a big way?” or “Do I feel like, all right, I'm pushing, we're working hard.” or “Maybe one day this person is going to become my vision of what they are” rather than accepting who they currently are at face value.

Ok, that's all well and good Victoria, but why do energy vampires exist? Where does all this come from?

Here's why: If any person, place, or thing is draining your energy – like where they just keep going, going, going as if the story that they're telling doesn't stop, or if they're sharing, they just don't stop talking and share the conversation time with you – it's because they, the person, place, or thing, is supremely ungrounded.

Now, what exactly is “being grounded,” and how does that apply to energy vampires?

You’ll have to watch the rest of this week’s video strategy to find out!

In Love and Light,

Victoria.

Worried about your finances, and struggling to attract the abundance you desire?

Thought you'd be farther along in life by now?

Feeling like you're still not "good enough" no matter how hard you try?

Believe it or not, you are already living very abundantly. Yes, I know that sounds annoying to hear right now, but it's true!

Your mindset, however, can be preventing you from seeing how abundant your life is, and can even be putting a cap on how much abundance you will experience.

Watch the above video to learn how to shift your mindset to unlock unlimited abundance!

"In the game of life, you're either a winner or a loser."

Sound familiar? That mindset of winning and achieving more and more has so much power in our society that it can determine the track of the majority of our lives.

The idea of being the best, taking the crown, and being on top or in charge is a very common source of motivation in our culture -- inspiring personal and professional growth through powerhousing our way to goals we've set or received.

But what happens when we don't get what we want?

Well, that means you're a "loser," right?

If the goal is set, such as being in front or getting the girl, and it's not achieved, the winner/loser mindset can wreak havoc on your self-esteem.

Failure becomes a scarlet letter or scar on our spirit, emotionally, when we subscribe to a winner/loser--or competitive--mindset.

When we feel like we are not "winning" at life, thoughts and feelings come up like "what's wrong with you" or "I'll never be good enough" or even "I'm ashamed of myself" for being a "loser," creating a cycle of inner pain and self-loathing that continues running in the background of our mind.

As that cycle of inner pain deepens, we then learn to fear trying at all in the first place. Because, if the price of trying to win is so high that it can make or break how you feel about yourself as a person, then why should we try at all?

This of course turns into a slippery slope of reticence, apathy and repression. We avoid going for the goal because we just have no energy for it.

In essence, the competitive mindset fuels fears of both winning AND losing.

When we want to reach for our goal or dream (the "win"), there is a fear that someone must lose for us to win. Or when we get the win, there is a fear of losing it all--maybe because someone else will take it from us, or we won't know what to do with it when we get it.

And let's not even talk about failure! You're not allowed to fail because that makes you "wrong" or a "loser" or an embarrassment to yourself and others.

Can you feel how toxic this mindset is?

It makes our energy so small, our fears so big, and breeds jealousy, envy and mistrust.

Here's the thing: having a competitive mindset and a competitive approach to life limits your ability to experience abundance.

No matter what level of abundance you're going for, the competitive mindset puts a cap on how much joy, fulfillment and peace you can feel, because it entails "effort-ing" constantly.

So how can we remove the limits to manifesting living an abundant life?

Use creativity to motivate you, instead of competition.

Creativity is intuitive, innovative, flowing, collaborative, expressive, inexhaustible and spontaneous. Competition is rational, linear, historical, isolating, separative, and finite.

Know this: To manifest unlimited #abundance: "I must pass from the competitive to the creative mind." - Wallace Wattles, The Science of Getting Rich

Living a life of unlimited abundance, where you are at peace and feeling fulfilled financially, socially, spiritually and personally is within your reach right now.

All it entails is a mindset shift.

When you choose to shift from the competitive to the creative mind, life becomes an endless flow of opportunities to experience fulfillment, rather than a struggle.

You can experience this shift whether you have $2 or $200 million, whether you have no friends or hundreds, whether you are single or committed to someone. The circumstances don't matter.

What matters most is how you feel.

And what determines how you can feel is your mindset.

Sensitive, empathic and spiritual people have the advantage here, but we all have access to the creative mind, it just takes practice to hone this gift and bring it out more.

Watch this week's video for the Oracle Card of the Week, which gives us a visualization to increase abundance and creativity!

In Love and Light,

Victoria.

The post Love Letters | Unlocking Unlimited Abundance appeared first on Sensei Victoria Whitfield.

Hearing about Reiki more and more these days, and still left wondering just what is it exactly?

Curious if Reiki is right for you or not?

Are you a Reiki practitioner that's struggling to describe Reiki to others, changing it every time?

Reiki is powerful and deeply meaningful to those who experience it firsthand, and most people recommend trying it above having to explain exactly what it is, shying away because they don't have the words to convey it clearly.

However, it's essential to have a clear definition of Reiki, and what it is not, because clarity itself is healing. When we as Reiki channels are unclear in communicating what Reiki is, it affects our ability to maintain the healthy state of flow, balance and centeredness that supports the best health of our clients and students.

Watch the above video to enter the discussion around "what is Reiki?" and to find out exactly how to answer that question with confidence and clarity!

OVERVIEW: What is Reiki?

Reiki is a system of Japanese techniques for stress reduction and relaxation. It is an internal alternative healing art for the cultivation and management of health and energy, similar to qigong and pranayama. The word "Reiki" in Japanese translates as "universal life-force energy."

There are million and one ways to describe Reiki

to someone who's never heard of it.

"Reiki is a form of natural energy healing or 'energywork'."

"Reiki is a spiritual healing art; it feels like an emotional and spiritual massage."

"Reiki is 'universal life force energy' that promotes healing in the body."

And still more versions. "Reiki is a form of 'palm healing' through the 'laying on of hands' and it is neither massage, prayer, yoga nor meditation." Or "Reiki is like qigong or pranayama. It's an ancient form of alternative healing rediscovered in Japan by Japanese Buddhist Mikao Usui in 1922 and he taught that zzzzzzzzzzzzz..."

And after you say all that to the person who just asked you a "simple question," the person looks at you like:

That awkward moment when they don't know Reiki/energy/newagey jargon...

Yeah. ...LOL!!

I've had the pleasure of this awkward moment quite a bit over the years! I've been asked the "what is Reiki?" question hundreds of times, from people of all walks of life who I meet at the fairs, festivals, seminars, speeches and classes I do.

This awkwardness is tough for both sides: I as the Reiki "Master" am garbled and confused, reaching for words to convey the value and power of Reiki to change someone's life, and the person listening is confused and straining to make sense of something completely new that their intuition is pulling them to faster than they can figure out what the heck it is.

So, to avoid this awkward feeling, most energyworkers--myself included--often choose to avoid a definition, and instead go for a demonstration. But awkward moments are signals for imminent healing.

To my energy people: look, I get it. You don't want to look stupid or unknowledgeable, so to avoid the rough spots and go with the path of least resistance, and either avoid defining what it is you do altogether, or you throw spaghetti on the wall and hope it will stick without regard to the other person because you "know" what you do, right?

Well... when you sidestep taking a good look at this issue, you miss out on gaining clarity for yourself. And clarity is healing.

You see, underneath this question of "what is Reiki?" and our struggle with answering it is this: a Throat Chakra imbalance.

Allowing awkward conversations shows that you have the courage to clear and balance any Throat Chakra issues you have.

Throat Chakra issues include: issues with communication, listening and self-expression. When it's depleted, the symptoms are fear of speaking up and expression oneself for fear of criticism, rejection or "sticking out", and when it's excessive, the symptoms are talking to hear yourself talk but not listening, or talking for fear of silence or fear of unworthiness.

Defining what you do and communicating it clearly is a key step in your soul's evolution as an energyworker and lightworker in this lifetime, whether you do Reiki or something else as your healing modality (entrepreneurship, parenting, art, teaching, etc.).

And when you find your light and shine it clear and bright, you give others permission to do the same.

Consider how on the other side of the fence, it is very healing for the person seeking clarification to witness someone being clear and grounded. This, therefore, is exactly why speaking in and of itself if a form of healing energywork.

Know this: Clarity is the biggest challenge for energyworkers and lightworkers. Accept and rise to it. #reiki #throatchakra #communication

Remember: you do not have to be perfect, all you have to ever be is Honest.

Now, I notice that this article has ended up being more for the developing energy and lightwork practitioners, but what about the rest of us that don't know what the heck Reiki is? Are you going to tell us yet, Victoria??

Sure. Here goes:

Reiki is a system of techniques for stress reduction and relaxation. It comes from Japan.

Bam. There you have it! Fifteen words and done.

But what about all the other spiritual, intuitive, juicy stuff that Reiki is? And is it right for me?

Watch this week's video for the Oracle Card of the Week, which shows you how to tell if Reiki is right for you and why!

In Love and Light,

Victoria.

Embrace exploring a similar clarity or "existential question" challenge (like "what is Reiki?") in your life, such as defining "what is health" or "what is happiness" for you.

Grab one sheet of paper and brainstorm an answer for a few lines. Then see if you can whittle it down to a definition that fits on one line or less.

Worried where your next paycheck will come from?

Frustrated or annoyed with always being "blocked" and lacking direction in your life?

Feeling like you're ungrounded, stagnant and don't know what to do?

Your Spirit is calling for More Love in your life, but in order for you to receive it, you need to have a strong foundation to your spiritual practice.

A strong spiritual practice raises your Abundance Vibration.

Mindset is a huge part of having a strong foundation for your spiritual development, and also a huge part of receiving authentic abundance.

Watch the above video to learn about The 5 Reiki Principles and how you can use them to shift to an attractive, abundant mindset.

More Love and More Money - Video Series on Increasing Authentic Abundance

What you think, you create.

To some of you, the above statement is old hat at this point. You've seen the movies, read the books, listened to the speakers, played with the cards, taken the classes - yup, that phrase was beaten to death circa December 22, 2012, when the world did NOT end :).

Here's the thing: if you really knew it, and really believed it, you'd be living it.

Until you change your behavior to demonstrate how you're aware that "what you think, you create," you'll have a hard time actually attracting abundance. Why? Because your foundation is weak.

In the study of Reiki as a system of natural healing and lifestyle, the very first teaching to all students across the board is The 5 Reiki Principles. 

What these principles are are 5 phrases that comprise the vantage point through which a Reiki Practitioner should view themselves and the world around them; aka. the phrases summarize a mindset to adopt as one's foundation for healing and energywork.

Dr. Mikao Usui Sensei, the founder of Reiki, first penned these 5 principles with the intent for students to recite them every morning and night during meditation time.

Now, the point to studying Reiki is to learn to Trust and Allow (which are basically 2 sides of the same coin), so harmonious energy can flow through you to where it is needed.

So, the idea goes that by reciting and embodying these ideals, you become a person who can trust and allow more universal energy to flow through you - and by extension, increases your abundance vibration. Below are The 5 Reiki Principles:

Having abundance affirmations, mission / vision / values statements, or a pledge of allegiance is essential for attracting what you want, because it clearly states what YOU want, rather than you waffling around in other people's wants, feelings, energy and so on.

Know this: You are either absorbing the dominant mindset around you, or creating one for yourself. Take charge. #MLMM #BK2YS

If you are feeling like you're unclear, in a "fog" and lacking vision right now, then you need to accept that your life will reflect that, in appearing like it's going nowhere or stagnant, because action follows thought (Read: "what you think, you create").

This is actually empowering to know, because that means you can change everything, right now, by taking action.

Create positive momentum by taking consistent positive action and you will see positive results. End of story.

Usui Sensei knew this. That's why he asked that all his students and all students of Reiki start with a clear mindset, to ensure we can be clear and open channels for healing energy.

Watch this week’s video for the Oracle Card of the Week, which gives some tough love about what's stopping you from creating a strong foundation for attracting abundance!

If you are a spiritual or holistic caregiver, counselor or therapist, you need to know that:

1. You are a Lightworker

2. You are an Empath

Energywork for Empaths 101 Retreat at The Dojo

It's essential that you learn how to take care of yourself so that you can continue to help people from a space of abundance, rather than being drained by what you do or who you help.

The above video is a great introduction to what is an Empath, if you are one, and how you need to learn to manage this gift.

That's why I'll be leading a retreat this month "Energywork for Empaths 101" to teach fundamental grounding, cleansing and healing techniques.
