Life will always present its share of challenges, but how we choose to react makes all the difference.
In this episode of Reiki from the Farm™, we explore the power of choice in the face of disappointment. Through personal stories—an election loss, a ticket mishap in Vegas, and a flight encounter—we reflect on how Reiki can help us find perspective, grace, and peace.
Join us for a heartfelt discussion and a powerful guided meditation to help you embrace the freedom to choose your reactions in any situation.

So I'd love to have you join usfor any of those.
(03:45):
We also have the Reiki BusinessSummit coming up in November,
and I'll include a link to thatin case you can join us.
I realize I just have to quicklylook up the date because I
don't, have it in front of me,but it actually starts next
Friday, the 22nd, 23rd, 24th.
(04:07):
And Karen and I are speaking onthe 25th, the Monday.
So we'd love to have you join usfor that, if that works for you.
So welcome everybody.
I'd like to I want to start offjust by inviting you to bring
your hands into Gassho andactivate your Reiki energy, and
(04:34):
just acknowledging that this isa time of transition.
It's a time of transitionseasonally, both in the Northern
and Southern Hemisphere.
In the Northern Hemisphere wehave much less daylight, in the
Southern Hemisphere you'regetting much more.
(04:54):
It's a time of transition withgovernments.
So many elections are happeningin 2024.
The U.
S.
just had a big election.
We had here in New Brunswick anelection.
There may be a federal electioncoming.
There are many countries thatare going to the polls and lots
(05:17):
of changes and lots of polarityin the sense, or duality in the
sense of both positive andnegative.
And so just acknowledging thatwe may all feel A little bit
unsettled with the change andjust inviting that unsettled
(05:39):
feeling to flow down through thebottoms of our feet and into the
earth as Reiki moves from thehighest heavens to in front of
our hands, through our hands,into our heart and begins
filling the space.
(06:00):
That was once taken up by thatunsettled energy, frequency, and
feeling, there's usually afeeling of insecurity that comes
with change as well.
And so if you have any sense ofinsecurity, any fear of the
future, I invite you to justmove that, allow that to move
(06:28):
down through you, down throughthe bottoms of your feet and
into the earth where it can beused to grow a blade of grass,
hatch a chick, open a flower.
Unfurl a leaf.
(06:50):
And I invite you to just thinkabout our topic this evening,
just, we're talking about howReiki helps us in times of
disappointment, just thinking oftimes in your life when you
experience disappointment andjust releasing those as well
(07:11):
with love and we'll come back tomaybe a more significant time.
As we go further in the podcast,but for right now, just letting
it all go.
This energy is just dissolvingup into the light of Reiki.
(07:32):
And once again, Reiki moves into fill the space with peace and
light and love.
And we take a moment to sendlove to each other, support to
each other, and just notice thatweb of support coming together,
(08:03):
and just feel the support ofyour peers, of all the people
who joined us tonight, of allthe people who will listen
later, hundreds and hundreds ofReiki people that wish you well,
and wish to support you, andwant you to know that you are
(08:24):
loved.
even and especially in timeswhen you feel unsupported and
unloved.
And the Brothers and Sisters ofthe Light are just surrounding
us all, creating a containerthat we can exist within, work
(08:50):
within, grow within.
And we are so blessed to be ofthis lineage of light bringers,
creating wellness on the earthtoday, and to be of this family,
this wonderful ICRT family,Reiki practitioners.
(09:13):
The Hidden Brook Farm, the Reikifrom the farm, Reiki
practitioners, everyonesupporting each other and I
invite us just to say a specialprayer for Charlene.
The last I heard she was in thehospital and unresponsive.
(09:38):
I believe she has a lot of lifeleft to live and if there are
any other members of our Reikifamily who are struggling in any
way, who feel unsupported in anyway, just send your love out to
them, your support out to them.
(10:07):
Thank you.
Namaste.
So guys, I just want to ask ifanyone has any questions this
evening before we begin ourregularly scheduled program.
(10:31):
And I do have a question in thechat just about tips for
offering Reiki at holisticfairs, and You know what?
There's several ways to do it.
One way that comes to mindimmediately is you, especially,
(10:54):
it's, this is especially helpfulif you happen to have like an
automated sign up system,something where people can just
go in and pick a space on yourcalendar and sign themselves up.
And you could even offer likejust a 15 minute free coupon.
Like myself, I offer 15 minutesfree sessions for people who are
(11:16):
wondering about classes orwondering about sessions or have
questions about Reiki.
And that has been fantastic forjust Helping to answer some of
the questions that people havebefore and so that they can
figure out if they do want tocommit to a session or a class.
(11:38):
So I think a 15 minute coupon,something like that would be
great.
Another thing that I do is Ibring a saddle seat.
It's a type of stool that youcan get at a massage.
A massage outlet store or placeswhere they sell massage
equipment.
(11:58):
And this saddle seat is verycomfortable.
People can just sit on it andtheir entire back is free.
It's just a stool, but somethingthat they can sit on like that.
And I used to use it to teachcentered riding lessons and
classes, but now I haven'ttaught that in a while so
(12:19):
instead I bring that with me andif people are wondering about
Reiki I just have them sit onthe stool and I say would you
like to try a few minutes and Ijust usually choose the large
muscles at the shoulders thetraps and the shoulder blades
and just place my hands thereand just allow the Reiki energy
(12:41):
to flow for their highest goodand Usually with just about five
minutes.
they get a sense of it.
And I've had people call me orreach out to me with email after
that saying, okay, that wasfantastic.
I'd like to learn more.
And so then we, we go ahead andbook them in a session or
something like that.
(13:02):
So those are the two ways that Ioften offer Reiki at Holistic
Fairs.
I will tell you though, that Ialso clear the entire space
before I go to the HolisticsFair because there's a lot of
different energies there and asa highly sensitive person that
can become overwhelming to me.
And so just clearing the spacebefore I get there and then
(13:25):
creating a little bubble ofReiki once I'm there it does
seem to attract people to mytable.
So hopefully that helps.
Are there any other questionstoday?
(13:45):
G.
O.
T.
's wondering if I'm going to bedoing any animal Reiki classes
in Lake George.
No I won't be G.
O.
T.
I will be doing some onlineclasses.
In this winter and next summerI'll be doing some in-person
animal Reiki classes on theisland of Campobello, just off
(14:08):
the coast of Maine.
There'll be in August,mid-August because that's when
most of the whales are there.
And quite often we see thewhales right outside the window
as we're in class.
But also we do take Tuesdayevening.
And we head out whale watchingso that both the Level 1
(14:32):
Master's students can join thewhale watching.
I'm teaching both Human ReikiLevel 1 and 2 in Master's, and
that'll be followed by AnimalReiki 1 and 2 in Master's.
I'd love to have you join us.
The in person class I will beteaching in Lake George this
year, as part of the NortheastReiki Retreat, and it's not too
(14:56):
late to sign up if you haven'tsigned up.
I highly recommend it.
That retreat is in May.
I haven't published this yet,but I will be making it public
soon, perhaps in the nextnewsletter.
I've been working on a newcourse called Health Care Reiki
with my friend Tracy Sullivan,and we believe we've been
(15:17):
working on it for about a yearnow, and we believe the course
will be ready to offer in May atthe Silver, just ahead of the
Silver Bay Reiki Retreat.
If healthcare Reiki, and this isworking in professional
healthcare settings of allkinds, like hospice, hospitals,
surgery, oncology it'll, it willbe covering all of that and
(15:42):
including nursing homes andmassage therapy clinics like
Holistic Health as well as Astraditionally, the standard
health care that we allconsider.
So we will be offering thatclass just ahead of the retreat.
And the animal communicationmasterclass I'm offering will be
(16:07):
on a weekend in 2025.
five and in fact if I can lookthat up for you because I the
dates of the New York, theNortheast Reiki Retreat, by the
way, are Friday, Saturday, andSunday, May 2nd to 4th, and the
date of Health Care Reiki isthe, and Tracy Sullivan and I
(16:27):
will, I don't know if we'll havean opportunity to teach in
person again.
I hope so.
But, yeah.
We know we're teaching in personthen.
We'd love to have you join us.
The healthcare Reiki will be theWednesday, April 30th and
Thursday, May 1st.
And the Animal CommunicationMasterclass february 18th, 19th

So we'll be doing AnimalCommunication 1 and 2, the 15th
and 16th of February, Level 3the 17th, and the Master
Teacher, over three evenings.
There's Tuesday, Wednesday,Thursday, February 18th, 19th

I can't read my own schedule, sosorry about that.
(17:14):
But yes, that master class hasfinally been set and I'm

opportunity along with theclass.
with many others.
There is a master a level threeanimal communication level three

So hopefully that's helpful.
Marissa, and I'm just wonderingif anybody would like and also

So yeah, any other questions youguys feel free to unmute
yourself as well and ask thatway.
Hi Pam.
Hi.
It's Margaret Mary M.
Gassho.
The Charlene that you spokeabout earlier, is that
Dragonfly?
(19:46):
No.
Okay.
Yeah.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
Yeah.
It's a different one.
Understood.
And I'll send Reiki.
Please.
Yeah.
I appreciate it.
She's a dear friend and yeah.
She'll accept.
And she will accept.
She's, she is unresponsive, butshe will absolutely accept.
(20:09):
I know that.
And her good friend that livesin the same community reached
out to let me know that she hadbeen hospitalized and is in, I
believe, a coma.
Okay, thank you.
I I don't know if I ever sharedwith you I studied with Raven
Keys, and I am a certifiedmedical Reiki master, so I will
(20:30):
do that work.
Yes, please.
I think she really needs that,Margaret Mary, so I really
appreciate that.
Understood.
I'll connect with you.
via email on that.
I taught Reiki 1 Animal Reiki 1and 2 back to back.
(20:51):
All my Reiki 1 and 2 studentsimmediately took Animal Reiki 1
and 2, which was very nice.
And in Reiki, Animal Reiki 1 and2, I learned that one of my
students had just completed inAustralia, and based on what I
(21:14):
know, I believe it was an onlinecourse, I don't have the
distinctions, and she shared hercertificates with me.
Yeah.
And all of the certificates hadthe same date, which was October
28th, no, October 29th, 2024, sojust a few days before having
(21:40):
taught her Reiki 1 and 2 andAnimal Reiki 1 and 2, and it was
Reiki 1, Reiki 2, and Reiki 3and she's eager to take her.
The ICRT, which is the way Iteach.
Yeah.
That's what I follow.
The ICRT Reiki Master and AnimalReiki Master course.
(22:06):
And, because I'm not clear, eventhough she has these
certificates stating she is amaster from another lineage, I'm
not clear on how she was taught.
And given the systems andstructures that are in place
with the ICRT.
Do I go ahead and teach her, ordo I wait six months?
(22:32):
I would wait six months.
I would ask her to do a masterteacher course.
So I have heard of the thatclass, and it does seem to be
out of Australia where peoplelearn in one or two days, Reiki
one, two, and three.
And what has normally happenedMargaret Mary, is that people
(22:53):
have come to me and said, look,I learned this.
But I didn't learn anything andI just left it confused and I
don't know what I'm doing.
And they've asked, they'veactually signed up for my level
one and two class, even thoughI've told them you don't have to
redo one and two.
Many of them choose to redo oneand two because they just said,
(23:15):
look, I just don't.
feel that I understand it.
It was too fast and I didn't getenough out of it.
So, many of them have gone backto the beginning with me.
And one of the things that'simportant before there are many
people who and many lineages whosay Reiki master when it's
(23:39):
really like level three.
So in other words, they are whatwe used to teach in the Tibetan
ART system, where the TibetanYasui ART system, where they get
the master symbol, but theydon't learn to do attunements
and they don't learn to teach.
It's really important beforepeople go on to the Animal Reiki
(24:04):
Master Class that they havealready learned to do
attunements, it's okay if it's adifferent style of attunement,
but they need to be at themaster teacher level.
And even though in our system,we don't consider somebody a
Reiki master until they'vetaught at least one person.
(24:25):
That's not the same in othersystems.
So even though Reiki master, isa sufficient title for those of
us who are master teachers.
I even have added master teacherto my to my title because I
can't tell you how many peoplesaid, Oh, you're a Reiki master,
(24:46):
can you teach?
And they're just so used topeople being at that level
three.
and calling themselves master.
So they really do need to be atthe master teacher level.
And I suppose if they learnedmaster teacher earlier from
(25:07):
another lineage, that would beacceptable.
But We have found, and I've seenit very clearly, that it is a
good idea, like we insist onpeople waiting that six months
between level two and levelthree and master, because you
(25:28):
really do need to grow in theenergy before you're ready to,
and understand the energy beforeyou're ready to go to the master
teacher level.
So I think I would ask her to, Iknow I would ask her to wait.
If she's not a master teacher,then no.
Does that help?
It helps greatly and thank youfor those distinctions and that,
(25:51):
especially the one distinctionabout You're not a master
teacher until you've taught atleast one person that really
solidifies that for me.
And yes, her certificate saysReiki 1, Reiki 2, Reiki 3.
And what really caught myattention was they all had the
same date on it.
And that's when it was like,wait a minute.
(26:14):
I know I've heard of that too.
And anybody who's come to mefrom I'm not, and maybe there
are people that get benefits.
from it, but anybody that havecome to me from that lineage
have said I, I'm confused, I'mlost, I don't understand and
they have all said that theywanted to start over, that,
that's totally fine, that reallyhelps me, and that follows with
(26:36):
what was showing up, and thankyou very much, I really
appreciate you.
Thank you.
Yeah, Marisa, I think you hadsomething.
I was just going to say, I hadone lady come to one of my
classes last, in April, when Ihad a class.
And she had gone to, throughthat training too.
(26:57):
And yeah, they just, theyattuned them to the master
symbol, but that's it.
Yeah, it's similar to backbefore there was Holy Fire, when
we had the Yasui Tibetan systemyou could take a master
practitioner class separately ifyou just wanted to become a
master practitioner and youdidn't want to teach.
(27:17):
So I think it's similar to that,but honestly I do believe that
anybody I've talked to have saidthat it was just too much too
fast and that they didn't reallyfeel confident or that they
learned a lot.
I, so far, I haven't run intoanybody who's okay.
(27:38):
Just before you go on to themeditation thing, I just need to
move Shaka.
So can you give me a couple ofminutes, just in case we're just
about there.
Yeah, absolutely.
Marisa.
Yeah.
Thank you guys.
Any other questions before webegin?
And I love doing it this way.
This was, I was going to do justa whole session on questions and
I realized, you know what, Iloved it so much answering
(28:00):
everybody's questions.
And if you have questions,probably other people do as
well, that I think it's just awonderful way to start our Reiki
share each month.
Anything else, guys, before webegin?
So the healthcare Reiki you donot have to have a medical
(28:21):
license.
You can be a non licensed personwho works in the medical
industry, or you may not evenwork in the medical industry.
I don't work in the medicalindustry.
but I can actually take this tohospice or even I might be the
Reiki master asked to go into asurgery.
(28:43):
We will be, there will be CEsprovided for this.
And it's a, it's going to bereally neat.
I will be doing a podcast inJanuary with Tracy Sullivan.
We'll let you know.
We're putting things together.
So we want to get it just alittle more solid before we talk
(29:04):
more about the details.
But it is, it has been reallyexciting.
And of course, when we do thisthis podcast, we will be
bringing you through ameditation.
with the energy.
And it is exciting.
We'll be talking about it'sjust, it was an energy that was
just waiting there for us.
And we've been listening verysimilarly to what we did with
(29:29):
Animal Reiki.
And it's just been absolutelyfascinating.
So we will be doing an onlinepilot class ahead of that, ahead
of the May date probablysometime in either end of
(29:50):
February or end of April.
Oh, sorry, Yeah, probably.
I'm not sure just when, but wewill be doing a pilot class.
If you're interested inattending the pilot class, just
let me know.
It will just be by invitation topeople who've let us know that
(30:12):
they're interested.
We'll do the pilot class online.
The.
Class in at Silver Bay, New Yorkwill be in person, which is
really exciting.
I'm really looking forward tothat.
Thank you guys.
Any other questions?
Okay.
I'm super excited to talk withyou tonight about our topic.
(30:34):
And I know, Jolene, you wereasking how I was beforehand and
I said, you know what, I'm justgoing to put a pin in that
because that has to do with thetopic at hand.
The last time we were togetherin a Reiki share was just
before.
The election that I was runningfor as a member of the
(30:55):
Legislative Assembly for ourriding here in Fredericton,
York, in New Brunswick as aprovincial representative, and I
have to say a lot of you know meand know how much effort I put
into things.
I just gave it my all.
(31:18):
Absolutely with the election andeverybody, so many people
thought that I would win thiswriting and I didn't.
And it came as a bit of asurprise to a lot of people.
And for sure on the night of theelection, when we saw the
(31:41):
results, I was reallydisappointed.
But I thought it was the firsttime out.
We got over 20 percent of thevote.
And so I guess, we'll do itagain.
And I did start making plans toto run again in four years.
But at the same point, yeah, I,for sure, it's really difficult
(32:02):
to put that much effort intosomething and not be
disappointed, especially becausethis was Reiki that guided me
all along.
But I knew I really, in a way Iwas prepared that it could go
either way, so I have to beready to, how will I handle it
if it doesn't work?
if it goes either way.
(32:24):
And so I knew I was going to befine either way.
I love what I do.
It was a huge learning curve,everything that I learned and
grew.
And there's something that Italk about in my Level 1 and 2
classes.
So if you've never had a Level 1and 2 class with me, you
wouldn't have heard this.
But if you have, it might be anice review.
(32:46):
I talk about how, and this comesthrough with this came through
Abraham the woman who channelsthe Abraham energy, and for some
reason her name slips my mindright now.
And Esther Hicks.
And Esther talks about thesehigh flying discs and how when
we're an energy person, we getused to being on a high flying
(33:09):
disc.
We get used to, just the goodluck and the good fortune that
seems to come our way when we'rein the energy a significant
amount of time.
And she says, we get used tothese high flying discs, but
every so often something happensthat knocks you down onto a low
(33:29):
flying disc.
And when that happens, Esthersaid there's always a lesson to
be learned.
So instead of railing about itand talking about why am I on
this low flying disc, why hasthis happened that's a waste of
energy and you can spend a lotof energy there like trying to
figure it out and whatever.
(33:50):
But she said instead if youcould simply ask what am I here
to learn and then learn it.
And then you can get back up onyour high flying disc.
And from the moment that I heardthat's how I decided to live my
life.
And William talks about thattoo, just the fact that we can
always use Reiki to shift ourconsciousness and shift our
(34:13):
vibration.
I knew this with the election,and And even still, I was
disappointed and I was sad for alittle bit.
It just felt like such a kickafter that much effort.
I left it all on the court, youguys.
I was absolutely exhausted.
I busted my knee from all thecanvassing and all the standing
(34:35):
and talking to people.
I talked to thousands andthousands of people in the
writing.
And and I won in the schoolsunequivocally the children all
chose the green party but didn'tactually win the writing.
So I allowed myself to feel thesadness and disappointment, but
I was also teaching Reiki at thetime, and I was also very
(34:56):
exhausted as well.
And I thought to that low flyingdisc, and I thought, you know
what, There was, I learned somuch in the course of this and
Marissa says it, it gave me anopportunity to reach a lot more
people.
It really and truly did.
And if you could have been thereto see the beautiful messages.
(35:19):
That people sent me about how Iwasn't, they weren't just a
number to me, like I truly caredabout their issues.
And it's people that said I gavethem faith in politics again,
and things like that, like justtruly beautiful messages from
wonderful people here in thewriting that I thank the world
(35:40):
of.
And I remembered that ViktorFrankl.
who was actually in the Naziconcentration camps.
He says between stimulus andresponse, there is a space.
And in that space is our powerto choose our response.
I actually immediately juststarted planning for the next
(36:03):
election and I, it was wonderfulbecause I was teaching 10 days
straight of Reiki.
And so in that Reiki space,every time we went into
meditation, I got moreinformation and more, yeah, just
more encouragement.
And so I felt sad anddisappointed for less than a day
by about lunchtime.
(36:24):
The next day, Reiki had shiftedthe sadness and disappointment
into relief because I realized,wow, I have four years now to
write these books that weregoing to be really difficult to
write if I was a sitting memberof the legislative assembly.
And to finish my courses andteach.
And so it really shifted things.
(36:45):
And do you know what happened?
As soon as it shifted things Istarted getting offers to teach
in amazing places.
I was asked to teach in HongKong, in Africa, in California.
Where else?
There's someplace else I wasasked to teach.
Australia?
No, New Zealand.
(37:05):
And it also opens things up sothat I can get back to Australia
again, which I would really liketo do.
So, I realized wow, this itwasn't meant to be right now.
I will listen to Reiki and justsee, am I, Was I, was it just,
was it about the learning or amI to run again?
And I do think it will be to runagain because all kinds of
(37:29):
information is coming in aboutwhat to do in that area.
So I'll definitely follow up onthat, you guys, and follow
through.
And that's, led led me to MayaAngelou said, you may not
control all the events thathappen to you, but you can
decide not to be reduced bythem.
One of the really big insights,I actually was my body was
(37:52):
hurting and so sore from justall of the physical work that is
involved in the campaign.
I have so much respect forPoliticians who work hard at
their campaigns and do it wellbecause it's the hardest.
I'm, I've grew up on a farm andhave worked in the dairy
industry and the canvassing andjust the constant work.
(38:18):
It's really incredible, but asI, I wasn't able to sleep very
well, my knees were paining andjust from all of the canvassing
and all of the walking and stepsand, but mostly the standing.
I thought, do you know what?
Two things.
I'm really happy I gave it myall because if I hadn't given it
(38:40):
my all and didn't have greatresults, I would have felt
responsible for those.
Not great results, but I didgive it everything I absolutely
had.
I left nothing behind.
So I was happy about that.
But the other thing I thought ofis, there's people who are
fighting for their lives,fighting for their homes,
(39:01):
fighting for their families,fighting for their countries,
who are giving it their all,really and truly giving it their
all, with much bigger goals.
stakes or consequences thanlosing an election.
And that just really brought meinto a lesson of perspective
(39:21):
that, losing an election wasdisappointing, but in the bigger
scheme of things I'm now able tostep back into a career that I
love that that just, brightensmy life every day and into a
place that I love.
Like I, I really have verylittle to complain about.
(39:44):
So that was really neat howReiki was able to so quickly
shift that for me.
And I thought about that and Irealized that this is probably
what we would be talking aboutthis evening.
And.
I also following that thatperspective and that gratitude
(40:05):
for the journey, actually, andall the wonderful people that I
met.
So shortly after I finishedteaching, many of some of that
for my husband's milestonebirthday recently, the children
and I got together and wepurchased tickets for a Billy
Joel concert for him.
(40:27):
And this is something that he'salways wanted to do.
We were able to get it on aweekend that worked for all of
us in Las Vegas.
So the five of us got together.
We traveled to Vegas, which waslovely.
We had five days together thereand it was just, It was very
(40:48):
different, very exciting to seethat part of the world and just
all the, yeah, it was reallyneat but wonderful to be
together as a family.
And my husband was justgobsmacked that we had done it.
We had done it as a surprise andwe had been planning it for a
year.
We got there, and everythingwent well with our flights and
(41:12):
all of that and the Airbnb,everything was great, but we got
to the Billy Joel concert, andfor some reason, the tickets,
which we had purchased back inJune, didn't come through, and
my son looked into it, and itturned out that the service that
he used to purchase the ticketsfor us had oversold, and they
(41:37):
didn't have the Billy Joeltickets for us, and it was
really interesting because myhusband and I chose to remain
positive.
And my son, who had purchasedthe tickets, he was in between.
My daughters were feeling verynegative about this, and they
(41:59):
were getting angry because wehad put so much into making this
such a special weekend for myhusband.
And now the biggest part of it,the concert, was not going to
happen.
And I looked at it and I felt,and my husband and I both, we
talked about it, and we feltthat it was a teachable moment
(42:20):
for the kids.
Our children are adults now, 22,24, and 26, and we've moved out
of the role of parent and intothe role of mentor.
And so we actually pulled upthis sort of this sentiment from
Charles Swindoll, Life is 10percent what happens to us, and
(42:42):
90 percent how we react to it.
And so we told the girls no,there's something positive
that's going to come from this,as long as we keep our mindset
positive.
But if we allow our mindset togo down into the negative, then
the positive energy can't comein.
try to stay positive and theywere struggling with it to be
(43:04):
fair.
But my son was on the fence andhe was trying to, he remained
polite and he goes, look, wecame all the way to Vegas for
this.
Concert, is there anything youcan do?
She said, yes, I can refund yourticket price, which was a lot of
(43:24):
money, but that wasn'tincredibly helpful to us.
Or, I can give you three times,almost three times your ticket
price in credits.
Would you like that?
And my son said, yes, thank you.
And he remained polite the wholeway through.
It's not the person's fault.
There, she was just trying tohelp.
(43:46):
And she refunded three times theamount.
And we said, and the girls werestill, that was something that
they were still frustrated thatwe missed the concert that my
husband has waited his wholelife to see.
And we said let's just look andsee what else is available.
Turns out the Eagles wereplaying at the Sphere.
(44:10):
Now, my husband is just as hugeof an Eagles fan as a Billy Joel
fan.
It was playing an hour and ahalf later.
We had just enough time topurchase the tickets online and
get over there.
And we actually got much moreexpensive seating than we would
have had for the concert we weregoing to.
(44:34):
And it was, I think, one of themost epic things I've seen in my
life.
The concert, the sphere itselfwas Incredible.
The sound was incredible.
The show was incredible.
My husband said at one point, Ifeel like I'm having a religious
experience.
Like this is just amazing.
(44:55):
And it really was.
I just, I can't say enough aboutit.
We were just blown away.
And we realized the girls werelike they couldn't believe it.
We all love Billy Joel, but wewere like, this was even better.
And the, and they said, wow,because you remain positive.
And you know what?
This credit allowed us to see alot more shows that we wouldn't
(45:18):
have been able to see.
We just absolutely filled ourspace and got to see some really
and incredible shows that wewouldn't have been able to
afford in addition to this epicconcert that actually we
realized in the end was probablyeven better than the original
one we were there to see.
(45:39):
Really brought home for thegirls and it brought home for me
just the importance of stayingpositive.
in these disappointingsituations that's what's
necessary in order to allow theenergy to come through.
And so as we were coming homefrom this incredible five week
(46:02):
vacation, and I realized thechildren are grown.
The opportunity to spend timewith them like that is those
times are fleeting, and they're,That was probably the most
important part for me.
It was the most important partfor my husband.
I'm not even probably.
It was the most important part.
And then to experience all ofthese things with our kids was
(46:23):
just amazing.
And so we're flying home afterthis wonderful five days, and I
realized how much I needed thatfive days after being just so
flat out for since last January,getting ready for the election
and just really having verylittle downtime in 10 months in
(46:43):
over 10 months.
And there was a woman behind usand she was saying, She had been
trying to get home from Mexicofor two days, and she was just
so frustrated and, the airportkept putting her up in hotels
and different stuff, and she wasjust trying to get home, but she
(47:04):
was going on and on about hownegative and how, and I thought,
this woman is going to impactour flight.
Like this flight's probably notgoing to happen.
And cause I, this is what's beenhappening and blah, blah, blah.
And I could just feel that herenergy was so negative.
And you know what?
(47:24):
It did impact our flight.
Our flight got held up by overtwo hours.
because of a mechanical issueand then, getting it all signed
off and all that.
And I'm, and don't, and I'mhappy.
I'm like, I'm so happy that theyfound the mechanical issue
before we took off.
And but at the same time, Irealized my husband was
(47:47):
listening to her and we wereboth, he was behind me.
And we were both thinking, youknow what this woman is choosing
not to stay in the positive andit's impacting the flight.
Maybe the two of us can bepositive and at least still get
(48:07):
home this evening because it wasgoing to be problematic for all
of us if we didn't.
Mostly me though.
The girls I think had a bit ofdowntime and my husband had some
downtime, but I needed to beback in sessions and working and
if we couldn't have got home,I'm sure I could have
rescheduled my clients, but Ipreferred not to.
(48:29):
So the two of us just started.
putting Reiki and positiveenergy into it.
And sure enough, although wewere sitting on the tarmac for
an additional two hours, we didget home late last night.
So I just and that just cementedfor me that this was what I
needed.
We needed to talk about thisevening was just how important
(48:54):
it is to, even when we aredisappointed, even when the
difficult things happen, to justlook at it for what can we
learn?
And then, getting back intothat.
What are we here to learn?
And then Using Reiki to move youback into that higher vibration
and even in frustration, that wecan choose.
(49:19):
a compassionate, peacefulreaction, and then that's going
to have an impact on things.
I know a lady who, I don't know,it's, she spends a lot of time
giving people a hard time ifthey don't meet her
(49:40):
expectations.
And it actually, it made itdifficult for me to be friends
with her because.
It just, it didn't, it wasn'tkind.
She often was giving people apiece of her mind and made it
difficult for a lot of people tobe friends with her actually.
I really feel that people dotheir best and choosing
(50:07):
compassion and peace in all ofthese situations it brings peace
to us.
and then also to the people thatare doing their best.
So these were some of theinsights that I wanted to to
discuss today.
We're so fortunate that we haveReiki.
(50:27):
Reiki gives us this ability tocalm our mind, open our heart
and create just that space thatwe need to be thoughtful in our
reactions.
And it's not always going towork.
And sometimes we'll bedisappointed in ourselves if we
don't choose to be thoughtful,if we react in anger or
whatever, and that's going tohappen.
(50:48):
I'm sure it's going to happenfor me as well as many of you.
But then we have Reiki to helpus feel better after that
happens.
But just always remember that wehave that to create the space.
Anytime we are in a difficultsituation, there's something to
learn.
(51:09):
Look for the learning and thenuse the Reiki to move us back
into that higher space.
It can just taking that momentto place your hand on yourself,
taking a pause, finding yourcenter.
This allows us to react withgrace.
And then we can always sendenergy to the difficult
(51:29):
situations past and present toshift our perspectives.
Does anybody have any questionsbefore we move into a meditation
with this today?
Or comments?
(51:49):
Okay.
I'm just going to invite you allto make yourself comfortable
then, and we're going to go intoour meditation today.
(52:10):
I just have a comment that isthere a possibility that your
energy and dedication to raisingthe vibrations of the voting
population helps Susan Holtchange the landscape?
You know what?
Maybe it did.
And I admire Susan Holt.
And she's doing a reallywonderful job of things.
(52:33):
So yes, that is a very strongpossibility, Terry.
Thanks for pointing that out.
Because she is doing a good job.
And I know that our Greens willbe there as well to help and
support her.
So maybe that was what it wasall about.
(52:55):
It'll become clear.
It's not clear yet, but it willbecome clear.
So guys, I'm just going toinvite you to make yourselves
comfortable.
Close your eyes.
Take a deep breath, justgrounding yourself in the here
and now, and you may wish toplace your hands in Gassho,
(53:18):
activating Reiki, and anysymbols you wish to have with
you.
And we just invite Reiki to flownow, filling the room with light
and love.
Surrounding you, just noticingthe brothers and sisters of the
(53:40):
light, the angels, thearchangels all around us.
And just noticing the beautifullight of Reiki that envelops
you, protects you.
(54:02):
Place your hands comfortably onyour body, wherever you feel
guided.
And I'd like you to think abouta recent or maybe a particularly
profound disappointment thatyou've experienced in your life.
And as you think about it, justobserve the emotions that come
(54:27):
up for you without judgment, ifyou can, just simply noticing
what bubbles up to the surface,and we'll just stay here for a
few moments in observation.
(55:31):
Now as you just notice whatbubbles up, just imagine that
the golden light of Reikisoftens each of these emotions,
eventually transforming theminto peace.
We will remain here together.
(55:53):
for some time as this occurs.
(57:35):
Now I invite you to considerthat this situation or
disappointment was a learningopportunity.
I invite you to ask yourself,what might this situation be
(57:56):
teaching me?
Or how can I grow from this?
Or even how did I grow fromthis?
if it was something thathappened some time ago.
Let's go ahead and send Reiki tothe situation in order to create
(58:19):
some space for clarity andcompassion as you listen to the
answers.
to these questions.
What was this situation teachingme, or how can I or did I grow
from it?
(01:00:07):
Now I'd like you to considerthat regardless of how you acted
or responded at the time, youhave the power to choose your
reaction now.
I'd like to consider, like youto consider the following
(01:00:32):
affirmation, I choose peace.
I choose grace.
I choose love.
And as we continue to send Reikito this disappointment, I invite
(01:00:52):
you to repeat to yourself, Ichoose peace.
I choose grace.
I choose love.
(01:02:41):
Now I invite you to visualizeyourself responding to upcoming
challenges, all upcomingchallenges, with calm and
wisdom, and with this thought inyour mind, I choose peace.
I choose grace.
(01:03:06):
I choose love.
(01:04:08):
We always have the power tochoose our response in every
situation and Reiki is alwayshere to support us.
When we can look at thosenegative events as an
opportunity to learn and grow,it really shifts how we react to
(01:04:34):
them.
Roy Bennett says, happinessdepends on your mindset and
attitude.
Let's choose to be happy.
(01:04:58):
I want to thank you for beinghere with me today.
This actually really helped mecontinue to process even further
some of the things around theelection and such that I was
processing.
So thank you for your assistancewith that.
(01:05:20):
I invite you to come back inyour own time.
If you'd it might be reallyhelpful to journal about your
experience, about themeditation, about the
disappointment.
Automatic writing can be reallyhelpful as well, where you just
(01:05:43):
start writing and don't edit,just allow whatever comes to
flow.
And while I have you, I justwant to thank you for being the
beautiful lights that each ofyou are in the world.
You're incredible.
Don't ever forget that.
Namaste.
(01:06:05):
That's it.

So we'd love to have you join usfor that, if that works for you.
So welcome everybody.
I'd like to I want to start offjust by inviting you to bring
your hands into Gassho andactivate your Reiki energy, and
(04:34):
just acknowledging that this isa time of transition.
It's a time of transitionseasonally, both in the Northern
and Southern Hemisphere.
In the Northern Hemisphere wehave much less daylight, in the
Southern Hemisphere you'regetting much more.
(04:54):
It's a time of transition withgovernments.
So many elections are happeningin 2024.
The U.
S.
just had a big election.
We had here in New Brunswick anelection.
There may be a federal electioncoming.
There are many countries thatare going to the polls and lots
(05:17):
of changes and lots of polarityin the sense, or duality in the
sense of both positive andnegative.
And so just acknowledging thatwe may all feel A little bit
unsettled with the change andjust inviting that unsettled
(05:39):
feeling to flow down through thebottoms of our feet and into the
earth as Reiki moves from thehighest heavens to in front of
our hands, through our hands,into our heart and begins
filling the space.
(06:00):
That was once taken up by thatunsettled energy, frequency, and
feeling, there's usually afeeling of insecurity that comes
with change as well.
And so if you have any sense ofinsecurity, any fear of the
future, I invite you to justmove that, allow that to move
(06:28):
down through you, down throughthe bottoms of your feet and
into the earth where it can beused to grow a blade of grass,
hatch a chick, open a flower.
Unfurl a leaf.
(06:50):
And I invite you to just thinkabout our topic this evening,
just, we're talking about howReiki helps us in times of
disappointment, just thinking oftimes in your life when you
experience disappointment andjust releasing those as well
(07:11):
with love and we'll come back tomaybe a more significant time.
As we go further in the podcast,but for right now, just letting
it all go.
This energy is just dissolvingup into the light of Reiki.
(07:32):
And once again, Reiki moves into fill the space with peace and
light and love.
And we take a moment to sendlove to each other, support to
each other, and just notice thatweb of support coming together,
(08:03):
and just feel the support ofyour peers, of all the people
who joined us tonight, of allthe people who will listen
later, hundreds and hundreds ofReiki people that wish you well,
and wish to support you, andwant you to know that you are
(08:24):
loved.
even and especially in timeswhen you feel unsupported and
unloved.
And the Brothers and Sisters ofthe Light are just surrounding
us all, creating a containerthat we can exist within, work
(08:50):
within, grow within.
And we are so blessed to be ofthis lineage of light bringers,
creating wellness on the earthtoday, and to be of this family,
this wonderful ICRT family,Reiki practitioners.
(09:13):
The Hidden Brook Farm, the Reikifrom the farm, Reiki
practitioners, everyonesupporting each other and I
invite us just to say a specialprayer for Charlene.
The last I heard she was in thehospital and unresponsive.
(09:38):
I believe she has a lot of lifeleft to live and if there are
any other members of our Reikifamily who are struggling in any
way, who feel unsupported in anyway, just send your love out to
them, your support out to them.
(10:07):
Thank you.
Namaste.
So guys, I just want to ask ifanyone has any questions this
evening before we begin ourregularly scheduled program.
(10:31):
And I do have a question in thechat just about tips for
offering Reiki at holisticfairs, and You know what?
There's several ways to do it.
One way that comes to mindimmediately is you, especially,
(10:54):
it's, this is especially helpfulif you happen to have like an
automated sign up system,something where people can just
go in and pick a space on yourcalendar and sign themselves up.
And you could even offer likejust a 15 minute free coupon.
Like myself, I offer 15 minutesfree sessions for people who are
(11:16):
wondering about classes orwondering about sessions or have
questions about Reiki.
And that has been fantastic forjust Helping to answer some of
the questions that people havebefore and so that they can
figure out if they do want tocommit to a session or a class.
(11:38):
So I think a 15 minute coupon,something like that would be
great.
Another thing that I do is Ibring a saddle seat.
It's a type of stool that youcan get at a massage.
A massage outlet store or placeswhere they sell massage
equipment.
(11:58):
And this saddle seat is verycomfortable.
People can just sit on it andtheir entire back is free.
It's just a stool, but somethingthat they can sit on like that.
And I used to use it to teachcentered riding lessons and
classes, but now I haven'ttaught that in a while so
(12:19):
instead I bring that with me andif people are wondering about
Reiki I just have them sit onthe stool and I say would you
like to try a few minutes and Ijust usually choose the large
muscles at the shoulders thetraps and the shoulder blades
and just place my hands thereand just allow the Reiki energy
(12:41):
to flow for their highest goodand Usually with just about five
minutes.
they get a sense of it.
And I've had people call me orreach out to me with email after
that saying, okay, that wasfantastic.
I'd like to learn more.
And so then we, we go ahead andbook them in a session or
something like that.
(13:02):
So those are the two ways that Ioften offer Reiki at Holistic
Fairs.
I will tell you though, that Ialso clear the entire space
before I go to the HolisticsFair because there's a lot of
different energies there and asa highly sensitive person that
can become overwhelming to me.
And so just clearing the spacebefore I get there and then
(13:25):
creating a little bubble ofReiki once I'm there it does
seem to attract people to mytable.
So hopefully that helps.
Are there any other questionstoday?
(13:45):
G.
O.
T.
's wondering if I'm going to bedoing any animal Reiki classes
in Lake George.
No I won't be G.
O.
T.
I will be doing some onlineclasses.
In this winter and next summerI'll be doing some in-person
animal Reiki classes on theisland of Campobello, just off
(14:08):
the coast of Maine.
There'll be in August,mid-August because that's when
most of the whales are there.
And quite often we see thewhales right outside the window
as we're in class.
But also we do take Tuesdayevening.
And we head out whale watchingso that both the Level 1
(14:32):

Hi Pam.
Hi.
It's Margaret Mary M.
Gassho.
The Charlene that you spokeabout earlier, is that
Dragonfly?
(19:46):
No.
Okay.
Yeah.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
Yeah.
It's a different one.
Understood.
And I'll send Reiki.
Please.
Yeah.
I appreciate it.
She's a dear friend and yeah.
She'll accept.
And she will accept.
She's, she is unresponsive, butshe will absolutely accept.
(20:09):
I know that.
And her good friend that livesin the same community reached
out to let me know that she hadbeen hospitalized and is in, I
believe, a coma.
Okay, thank you.
I I don't know if I ever sharedwith you I studied with Raven
Keys, and I am a certifiedmedical Reiki master, so I will
(20:30):
do that work.
Yes, please.
I think she really needs that,Margaret Mary, so I really
appreciate that.
Understood.
I'll connect with you.
via email on that.
I taught Reiki 1 Animal Reiki 1and 2 back to back.
(20:51):
All my Reiki 1 and 2 studentsimmediately took Animal Reiki 1
and 2, which was very nice.
And in Reiki, Animal Reiki 1 and2, I learned that one of my
students had just completed inAustralia, and based on what I
(21:14):
know, I believe it was an onlinecourse, I don't have the
distinctions, and she shared hercertificates with me.
Yeah.
And all of the certificates hadthe same date, which was October
28th, no, October 29th, 2024, sojust a few days before having
(21:40):
taught her Reiki 1 and 2 andAnimal Reiki 1 and 2, and it was
Reiki 1, Reiki 2, and Reiki 3and she's eager to take her.
The ICRT, which is the way Iteach.
Yeah.
That's what I follow.
The ICRT Reiki Master and AnimalReiki Master course.
(22:06):
And, because I'm not clear, eventhough she has these
certificates stating she is amaster from another lineage, I'm
not clear on how she was taught.
And given the systems andstructures that are in place
with the ICRT.
Do I go ahead and teach her, ordo I wait six months?
(22:32):
I would wait six months.
I would ask her to do a masterteacher course.
So I have heard of the thatclass, and it does seem to be
out of Australia where peoplelearn in one or two days, Reiki
one, two, and three.
And what has normally happenedMargaret Mary, is that people
(22:53):
have come to me and said, look,I learned this.
But I didn't learn anything andI just left it confused and I
don't know what I'm doing.
And they've asked, they'veactually signed up for my level
one and two class, even thoughI've told them you don't have to
redo one and two.
Many of them choose to redo oneand two because they just said,
(23:15):
look, I just don't.
feel that I understand it.
It was too fast and I didn't getenough out of it.
So, many of them have gone backto the beginning with me.
And one of the things that'simportant before there are many
people who and many lineages whosay Reiki master when it's
(23:39):
really like level three.
So in other words, they are whatwe used to teach in the Tibetan
ART system, where the TibetanYasui ART system, where they get
the master symbol, but theydon't learn to do attunements
and they don't learn to teach.
It's really important beforepeople go on to the Animal Reiki
(24:04):
Master Class that they havealready learned to do
attunements, it's okay if it's adifferent style of attunement,
but they need to be at themaster teacher level.
And even though in our system,we don't consider somebody a
Reiki master until they'vetaught at least one person.
(24:25):
That's not the same in othersystems.
So even though Reiki master, isa sufficient title for those of
us who are master teachers.
I even have added master teacherto my to my title because I
can't tell you how many peoplesaid, Oh, you're a Reiki master,
(24:46):
can you teach?
And they're just so used topeople being at that level
three.
and calling themselves master.
So they really do need to be atthe master teacher level.
And I suppose if they learnedmaster teacher earlier from
(25:07):
another lineage, that would beacceptable.
But We have found, and I've seenit very clearly, that it is a
good idea, like we insist onpeople waiting that six months
between level two and levelthree and master, because you
(25:28):
really do need to grow in theenergy before you're ready to,
and understand the energy beforeyou're ready to go to the master
teacher level.
So I think I would ask her to, Iknow I would ask her to wait.
If she's not a master teacher,then no.
Does that help?
It helps greatly and thank youfor those distinctions and that,
(25:51):
especially the one distinctionabout You're not a master
teacher until you've taught atleast one person that really
solidifies that for me.
And yes, her certificate saysReiki 1, Reiki 2, Reiki 3.
And what really caught myattention was they all had the
same date on it.
And that's when it was like,wait a minute.
(26:14):
I know I've heard of that too.
And anybody who's come to mefrom I'm not, and maybe there
are people that get benefits.
from it, but anybody that havecome to me from that lineage
have said I, I'm confused, I'mlost, I don't understand and
they have all said that theywanted to start over, that,
that's totally fine, that reallyhelps me, and that follows with
(26:36):
what was showing up, and thankyou very much, I really
appreciate you.
Thank you.
Yeah, Marisa, I think you hadsomething.
I was just going to say, I hadone lady come to one of my
classes last, in April, when Ihad a class.
And she had gone to, throughthat training too.
(26:57):
And yeah, they just, theyattuned them to the master
symbol, but that's it.
Yeah, it's similar to backbefore there was Holy Fire, when
we had the Yasui Tibetan systemyou could take a master
practitioner class separately ifyou just wanted to become a
master practitioner and youdidn't want to teach.
(27:17):
So I think it's similar to that,but honestly I do believe that
anybody I've talked to have saidthat it was just too much too
fast and that they didn't reallyfeel confident or that they
learned a lot.
I, so far, I haven't run intoanybody who's okay.
(27:38):
Just before you go on to themeditation thing, I just need to
move Shaka.
So can you give me a couple ofminutes, just in case we're just
about there.
Yeah, absolutely.
Marisa.
Yeah.
Thank you guys.
Any other questions before webegin?
And I love doing it this way.
This was, I was going to do justa whole session on questions and
I realized, you know what, Iloved it so much answering
(28:00):
everybody's questions.
And if you have questions,probably other people do as
well, that I think it's just awonderful way to start our Reiki
share each month.
Anything else, guys, before webegin?
So the healthcare Reiki you donot have to have a medical
(28:21):
license.
You can be a non licensed personwho works in the medical
industry, or you may not evenwork in the medical industry.
I don't work in the medicalindustry.
but I can actually take this tohospice or even I might be the
Reiki master asked to go into asurgery.
(28:43):
We will be, there will be CEsprovided for this.
And it's a, it's going to bereally neat.
I will be doing a podcast inJanuary with Tracy Sullivan.
We'll let you know.
We're putting things together.
So we want to get it just alittle more solid before we talk
(29:04):
more about the details.
But it is, it has been reallyexciting.
And of course, when we do thisthis podcast, we will be
bringing you through ameditation.
with the energy.
And it is exciting.
We'll be talking about it'sjust, it was an energy that was
just waiting there for us.
And we've been listening verysimilarly to what we did with
(29:29):
Animal Reiki.
And it's just been absolutelyfascinating.
So we will be doing an onlinepilot class ahead of that, ahead
of the May date probablysometime in either end of
(29:50):
February or end of April.
Oh, sorry, Yeah, probably.
I'm not sure just when, but wewill be doing a pilot class.
If you're interested inattending the pilot class, just
let me know.
It will just be by invitation topeople who've let us know that
(30:12):
they're interested.
We'll do the pilot class online.
The.
Class in at Silver Bay, New Yorkwill be in person, which is
really exciting.
I'm really looking forward tothat.
Thank you guys.
Any other questions?
Okay.
I'm super excited to talk withyou tonight about our topic.
(30:34):
And I know, Jolene, you wereasking how I was beforehand and
I said, you know what, I'm justgoing to put a pin in that
because that has to do with thetopic at hand.
The last time we were togetherin a Reiki share was just
before.
The election that I was runningfor as a member of the
(30:55):
Legislative Assembly for ourriding here in Fredericton,
York, in New Brunswick as aprovincial representative, and I
have to say a lot of you know meand know how much effort I put
into things.
I just gave it my all.
(31:18):
Absolutely with the election andeverybody, so many people
thought that I would win thiswriting and I didn't.
And it came as a bit of asurprise to a lot of people.
And for sure on the night of theelection, when we saw the
(31:41):
results, I was reallydisappointed.
But I thought it was the firsttime out.
We got over 20 percent of thevote.
And so I guess, we'll do itagain.
And I did start making plans toto run again in four years.
But at the same point, yeah, I,for sure, it's really difficult
(32:02):
to put that much effort intosomething and not be
disappointed, especially becausethis was Reiki that guided me
all along.
But I knew I really, in a way Iwas prepared that it could go
either way, so I have to beready to, how will I handle it
if it doesn't work?
if it goes either way.
(32:24):
And so I knew I was going to befine either way.
I love what I do.
It was a huge learning curve,everything that I learned and
grew.
And there's something that Italk about in my Level 1 and 2
classes.
So if you've never had a Level 1and 2 class with me, you
wouldn't have heard this.
But if you have, it might be anice review.
(32:46):
I talk about how, and this comesthrough with this came through
Abraham the woman who channelsthe Abraham energy, and for some
reason her name slips my mindright now.
And Esther Hicks.
And Esther talks about thesehigh flying discs and how when
we're an energy person, we getused to being on a high flying
(33:09):
disc.
We get used to, just the goodluck and the good fortune that
seems to come our way when we'rein the energy a significant
amount of time.
And she says, we get used tothese high flying discs, but
every so often something happensthat knocks you down onto a low
(33:29):
flying disc.
And when that happens, Esthersaid there's always a lesson to
be learned.
So instead of railing about itand talking about why am I on
this low flying disc, why hasthis happened that's a waste of
energy and you can spend a lotof energy there like trying to
figure it out and whatever.
(33:50):
But she said instead if youcould simply ask what am I here
to learn and then learn it.
And then you can get back up onyour high flying disc.
And from the moment that I heardthat's how I decided to live my
life.
And William talks about thattoo, just the fact that we can
always use Reiki to shift ourconsciousness and shift our
(34:13):
vibration.
I knew this with the election,and And even still, I was
disappointed and I was sad for alittle bit.
It just felt like such a kickafter that much effort.
I left it all on the court, youguys.
I was absolutely exhausted.
I busted my knee from all thecanvassing and all the standing
(34:35):
and talking to people.
I talked to thousands andthousands of people in the
writing.
And and I won in the schoolsunequivocally the children all
chose the green party but didn'tactually win the writing.
So I allowed myself to feel thesadness and disappointment, but
I was also teaching Reiki at thetime, and I was also very
(34:56):
exhausted as well.
And I thought to that low flyingdisc, and I thought, you know
what, There was, I learned somuch in the course of this and
Marissa says it, it gave me anopportunity to reach a lot more
people.
It really and truly did.
And if you could have been thereto see the beautiful messages.
(35:19):
That people sent me about how Iwasn't, they weren't just a
number to me, like I truly caredabout their issues.
And it's people that said I gavethem faith in politics again,
and things like that, like justtruly beautiful messages from
wonderful people here in thewriting that I thank the world
(35:40):
of.
And I remembered that ViktorFrankl.
who was actually in the Naziconcentration camps.
He says between stimulus andresponse, there is a space.
And in that space is our powerto choose our response.
I actually immediately juststarted planning for the next
(36:03):
election and I, it was wonderfulbecause I was teaching 10 days
straight of Reiki.
And so in that Reiki space,every time we went into
meditation, I got moreinformation and more, yeah, just
more encouragement.
And so I felt sad anddisappointed for less than a day
by about lunchtime.
(36:24):
The next day, Reiki had shiftedthe sadness and disappointment
into relief because I realized,wow, I have four years now to
write these books that weregoing to be really difficult to
write if I was a sitting memberof the legislative assembly.
And to finish my courses andteach.
And so it really shifted things.
(36:45):
And do you know what happened?
As soon as it shifted things Istarted getting offers to teach
in amazing places.
I was asked to teach in HongKong, in Africa, in California.
Where else?
There's someplace else I wasasked to teach.
Australia?
No, New Zealand.
(37:05):
And it also opens things up sothat I can get back to Australia
again, which I would really liketo do.
So, I realized wow, this itwasn't meant to be right now.
I will listen to Reiki and justsee, am I, Was I, was it just,
was it about the learning or amI to run again?
And I do think it will be to runagain because all kinds of
(37:29):
information is coming in aboutwhat to do in that area.
So I'll definitely follow up onthat, you guys, and follow
through.
And that's, led led me to MayaAngelou said, you may not
control all the events thathappen to you, but you can
decide not to be reduced bythem.
One of the really big insights,I actually was my body was
(37:52):
hurting and so sore from justall of the physical work that is
involved in the campaign.
I have so much respect forPoliticians who work hard at
their campaigns and do it wellbecause it's the hardest.
I'm, I've grew up on a farm andhave worked in the dairy
industry and the canvassing andjust the constant work.
(38:18):
It's really incredible, but asI, I wasn't able to sleep very
well, my knees were paining andjust from all of the canvassing
and all of the walking and stepsand, but mostly the standing.
I thought, do you know what?
Two things.
I'm really happy I gave it myall because if I hadn't given it
(38:40):
my all and didn't have greatresults, I would have felt
responsible for those.
Not great results, but I didgive it everything I absolutely
had.
I left nothing behind.
So I was happy about that.
But the other thing I thought ofis, there's people who are
fighting for their lives,fighting for their homes,
(39:01):
fighting for their families,fighting for their countries,
who are giving it their all,really and truly giving it their
all, with much bigger goals.
stakes or consequences thanlosing an election.
And that just really brought meinto a lesson of perspective
(39:21):
that, losing an election wasdisappointing, but in the bigger
scheme of things I'm now able tostep back into a career that I
love that that just, brightensmy life every day and into a
place that I love.
Like I, I really have verylittle to complain about.
(39:44):
So that was really neat howReiki was able to so quickly
shift that for me.
And I thought about that and Irealized that this is probably
what we would be talking aboutthis evening.
And.
I also following that thatperspective and that gratitude
(40:05):
for the journey, actually, andall the wonderful people that I
met.
So shortly after I finishedteaching, many of some of that
for my husband's milestonebirthday recently, the children
and I got together and wepurchased tickets for a Billy
Joel concert for him.
(40:27):
And this is something that he'salways wanted to do.
We were able to get it on aweekend that worked for all of
us in Las Vegas.
So the five of us got together.
We traveled to Vegas, which waslovely.
We had five days together thereand it was just, It was very
(40:48):
different, very exciting to seethat part of the world and just
all the, yeah, it was reallyneat but wonderful to be
together as a family.
And my husband was justgobsmacked that we had done it.
We had done it as a surprise andwe had been planning it for a
year.
We got there, and everythingwent well with our flights and
(41:12):
all of that and the Airbnb,everything was great, but we got
to the Billy Joel concert, andfor some reason, the tickets,
which we had purchased back inJune, didn't come through, and
my son looked into it, and itturned out that the service that
he used to purchase the ticketsfor us had oversold, and they
(41:37):
didn't have the Billy Joeltickets for us, and it was
really interesting because myhusband and I chose to remain
positive.
And my son, who had purchasedthe tickets, he was in between.
My daughters were feeling verynegative about this, and they
(41:59):
were getting angry because wehad put so much into making this
such a special weekend for myhusband.
And now the biggest part of it,the concert, was not going to
happen.
And I looked at it and I felt,and my husband and I both, we
talked about it, and we feltthat it was a teachable moment
(42:20):
for the kids.
Our children are adults now, 22,24, and 26, and we've moved out
of the role of parent and intothe role of mentor.
And so we actually pulled upthis sort of this sentiment from
Charles Swindoll, Life is 10percent what happens to us, and
(42:42):
90 percent how we react to it.
And so we told the girls no,there's something positive
that's going to come from this,as long as we keep our mindset
positive.
But if we allow our mindset togo down into the negative, then
the positive energy can't comein.
try to stay positive and theywere struggling with it to be
(43:04):
fair.
But my son was on the fence andhe was trying to, he remained
polite and he goes, look, wecame all the way to Vegas for
this.
Concert, is there anything youcan do?
She said, yes, I can refund yourticket price, which was a lot of
(43:24):
money, but that wasn'tincredibly helpful to us.
Or, I can give you three times,almost three times your ticket
price in credits.
Would you like that?
And my son said, yes, thank you.
And he remained polite the wholeway through.
It's not the person's fault.
There, she was just trying tohelp.
(43:46):
And she refunded three times theamount.
And we said, and the girls werestill, that was something that
they were still frustrated thatwe missed the concert that my
husband has waited his wholelife to see.
And we said let's just look andsee what else is available.
Turns out the Eagles wereplaying at the Sphere.
(44:10):
Now, my husband is just as hugeof an Eagles fan as a Billy Joel
fan.
It was playing an hour and ahalf later.
We had just enough time topurchase the tickets online and
get over there.
And we actually got much moreexpensive seating than we would
have had for the concert we weregoing to.
(44:34):
And it was, I think, one of themost epic things I've seen in my
life.
The concert, the sphere itselfwas Incredible.
The sound was incredible.
The show was incredible.
My husband said at one point, Ifeel like I'm having a religious
experience.
Like this is just amazing.
(44:55):
And it really was.
I just, I can't say enough aboutit.
We were just blown away.
And we realized the girls werelike they couldn't believe it.
We all love Billy Joel, but wewere like, this was even better.
And the, and they said, wow,because you remain positive.
And you know what?
This credit allowed us to see alot more shows that we wouldn't
(45:18):
have been able to see.
We just absolutely filled ourspace and got to see some really
and incredible shows that wewouldn't have been able to
afford in addition to this epicconcert that actually we
realized in the end was probablyeven better than the original
one we were there to see.
(45:39):
Really brought home for thegirls and it brought home for me
just the importance of stayingpositive.
in these disappointingsituations that's what's
necessary in order to allow theenergy to come through.
And so as we were coming homefrom this incredible five week
(46:02):
vacation, and I realized thechildren are grown.
The opportunity to spend timewith them like that is those
times are fleeting, and they're,That was probably the most
important part for me.
It was the most important partfor my husband.
I'm not even probably.
It was the most important part.
And then to experience all ofthese things with our kids was
(46:23):
just amazing.
And so we're flying home afterthis wonderful five days, and I
realized how much I needed thatfive days after being just so
flat out for since last January,getting ready for the election
and just really having verylittle downtime in 10 months in
(46:43):
over 10 months.
And there was a woman behind usand she was saying, She had been
trying to get home from Mexicofor two days, and she was just
so frustrated and, the airportkept putting her up in hotels
and different stuff, and she wasjust trying to get home, but she
(47:04):
was going on and on about hownegative and how, and I thought,
this woman is going to impactour flight.
Like this flight's probably notgoing to happen.
And cause I, this is what's beenhappening and blah, blah, blah.
And I could just feel that herenergy was so negative.
And you know what?
(47:24):
It did impact our flight.
Our flight got held up by overtwo hours.
because of a mechanical issueand then, getting it all signed
off and all that.
And I'm, and don't, and I'mhappy.
I'm like, I'm so happy that theyfound the mechanical issue
before we took off.
And but at the same time, Irealized my husband was
(47:47):
listening to her and we wereboth, he was behind me.
And we were both thinking, youknow what this woman is choosing
not to stay in the positive andit's impacting the flight.
Maybe the two of us can bepositive and at least still get
(48:07):
home this evening because it wasgoing to be problematic for all
of us if we didn't.
Mostly me though.
The girls I think had a bit ofdowntime and my husband had some
downtime, but I needed to beback in sessions and working and
if we couldn't have got home,I'm sure I could have
rescheduled my clients, but Ipreferred not to.
(48:29):
So the two of us just started.
putting Reiki and positiveenergy into it.
And sure enough, although wewere sitting on the tarmac for
an additional two hours, we didget home late last night.
So I just and that just cementedfor me that this was what I
needed.
We needed to talk about thisevening was just how important
(48:54):
it is to, even when we aredisappointed, even when the
difficult things happen, to justlook at it for what can we
learn?
And then, getting back intothat.
What are we here to learn?
And then Using Reiki to move youback into that higher vibration
and even in frustration, that wecan choose.
(49:19):
a compassionate, peacefulreaction, and then that's going
to have an impact on things.
I know a lady who, I don't know,it's, she spends a lot of time
giving people a hard time ifthey don't meet her
(49:40):
expectations.
And it actually, it made itdifficult for me to be friends
with her because.
It just, it didn't, it wasn'tkind.
She often was giving people apiece of her mind and made it
difficult for a lot of people tobe friends with her actually.
I really feel that people dotheir best and choosing
(50:07):
compassion and peace in all ofthese situations it brings peace
to us.
and then also to the people thatare doing their best.
So these were some of theinsights that I wanted to to
discuss today.
We're so fortunate that we haveReiki.
(50:27):
Reiki gives us this ability tocalm our mind, open our heart
and create just that space thatwe need to be thoughtful in our
reactions.
And it's not always going towork.
And sometimes we'll bedisappointed in ourselves if we
don't choose to be thoughtful,if we react in anger or
whatever, and that's going tohappen.
(50:48):
I'm sure it's going to happenfor me as well as many of you.
But then we have Reiki to helpus feel better after that
happens.
But just always remember that wehave that to create the space.
Anytime we are in a difficultsituation, there's something to
learn.
(51:09):
Look for the learning and thenuse the Reiki to move us back
into that higher space.
It can just taking that momentto place your hand on yourself,
taking a pause, finding yourcenter.
This allows us to react withgrace.
And then we can always sendenergy to the difficult
(51:29):
situations past and present toshift our perspectives.
Does anybody have any questionsbefore we move into a meditation
with this today?
Or comments?
(51:49):
Okay.
I'm just going to invite you allto make yourself comfortable
then, and we're going to go intoour meditation today.
(52:10):
I just have a comment that isthere a possibility that your
energy and dedication to raisingthe vibrations of the voting
population helps Susan Holtchange the landscape?
You know what?
Maybe it did.
And I admire Susan Holt.
And she's doing a reallywonderful job of things.
(52:33):
So yes, that is a very strongpossibility, Terry.
Thanks for pointing that out.
Because she is doing a good job.
And I know that our Greens willbe there as well to help and
support her.
So maybe that was what it wasall about.
(52:55):
It'll become clear.
It's not clear yet, but it willbecome clear.
So guys, I'm just going toinvite you to make yourselves
comfortable.
Close your eyes.
Take a deep breath, justgrounding yourself in the here
and now, and you may wish toplace your hands in Gassho,
(53:18):
activating Reiki, and anysymbols you wish to have with
you.
And we just invite Reiki to flownow, filling the room with light
and love.
Surrounding you, just noticingthe brothers and sisters of the
(53:40):
light, the angels, thearchangels all around us.
And just noticing the beautifullight of Reiki that envelops
you, protects you.
(54:02):
Place your hands comfortably onyour body, wherever you feel
guided.
And I'd like you to think abouta recent or maybe a particularly
profound disappointment thatyou've experienced in your life.
And as you think about it, justobserve the emotions that come
(54:27):
up for you without judgment, ifyou can, just simply noticing
what bubbles up to the surface,and we'll just stay here for a
few moments in observation.
(55:31):
Now as you just notice whatbubbles up, just imagine that
the golden light of Reikisoftens each of these emotions,
eventually transforming theminto peace.
We will remain here together.
(55:53):
for some time as this occurs.
(57:35):
Now I invite you to considerthat this situation or
disappointment was a learningopportunity.
I invite you to ask yourself,what might this situation be
(57:56):
teaching me?
Or how can I grow from this?
Or even how did I grow fromthis?
if it was something thathappened some time ago.
Let's go ahead and send Reiki tothe situation in order to create
(58:19):
some space for clarity andcompassion as you listen to the
answers.
to these questions.
What was this situation teachingme, or how can I or did I grow
from it?
(01:00:07):
Now I'd like you to considerthat regardless of how you acted
or responded at the time, youhave the power to choose your
reaction now.
I'd like to consider, like youto consider the following
(01:00:32):
affirmation, I choose peace.
I choose grace.
I choose love.
And as we continue to send Reikito this disappointment, I invite
(01:00:52):
you to repeat to yourself, Ichoose peace.
I choose grace.
I choose love.
(01:02:41):
Now I invite you to visualizeyourself responding to upcoming
challenges, all upcomingchallenges, with calm and
wisdom, and with this thought inyour mind, I choose peace.
I choose grace.
(01:03:06):
I choose love.
(01:04:08):
We always have the power tochoose our response in every
situation and Reiki is alwayshere to support us.
When we can look at thosenegative events as an
opportunity to learn and grow,it really shifts how we react to
(01:04:34):
them.
Roy Bennett says, happinessdepends on your mindset and
attitude.
Let's choose to be happy.
(01:04:58):
I want to thank you for beinghere with me today.
This actually really helped mecontinue to process even further
some of the things around theelection and such that I was
processing.
So thank you for your assistancewith that.
(01:05:20):
I invite you to come back inyour own time.
If you'd it might be reallyhelpful to journal about your
experience, about themeditation, about the
disappointment.
Automatic writing can be reallyhelpful as well, where you just
(01:05:43):
start writing and don't edit,just allow whatever comes to
flow.
And while I have you, I justwant to thank you for being the
beautiful lights that each ofyou are in the world.
You're incredible.
