I read a great quote by Mother Meera about people who question and have doubts...I can't remember how it went but basically she was saying it's healthy to have doubts because it keeps you honest.

Yeah, we've tried to bring that factor over from Reiki4All. albeit with just not as much angst i hope!

I'm married to the most practical and spiritually skeptical man on the planet, it used to drive me mad with frustration but now I see the balance created between us both..he helps keep me honest and I help him explore other possibilities and expand his perceptions a little.... but he would never admit that ahahahah

Sound slike you folks have a great partnership! My own missus is similar to your hubby. Drives me mad with frustration also.. "Why won't you open your eyes!" Is a common thought for me.. .

Still, if one goes the Buddhist philosophical route. If someone is close to a very spiritual person, and they themselves aren't spiritual, there's more chance they will be, in the next life.

take care

we do have a great partnership been together 18 years, it works ( MOST of the time ahaha)

thing is he is not spiritual in the sense that he wants to explore other dimensions or his own divinity in anyway, he has no interest in 'god' or life beyond death, he says he'll worry about that when he gets there.......But he just simply lives a very simple and practical spiritual life....he works outside on the land working with nature and animals...is a wonderful father and a very decent human being...

he is actively spiritual but not activively seeking spirituality ( if that makes sense)he's living it, not seeking it..he takes the p*ss outa me by saying he is my guru in this lifetime here to be my teacher.... cheeky monkey!! hehe

anyway thats enough nice talk about the hubby, he'll come in tonight annoy me and I'll want to punch him!! ahahah..

been nice catching up, now I've finally registetred here, I'll drop by again....chow for now....

I was able to at least temporarily resolve my immediate situation, with the help of my manager yesterday (and lots of prayer, and Reiki!) One of the things I did on a call that I had with this co-worker was remain emotionally neutral during a discussion where she was trying to assert the upper hand, and it clearly threw her off-balance. She had no choice but to conduct the rest of the call in a more subdued and cooperative manner. I felt more empowered because I had prayed and gave myself Reiki right before the call. I don't know that this will solve the issue completely, because she is who she is, but I do feel better knowing that Reiki is within me and surrounds me. I just have to keep reminding myself of that.

thats changing the nature of the engagement!

Hi all, another good Crystal is Tigers Eye, has great protective properties. Also Double Terminated Quartz. If you hold a DT Quartz in either hand it repairs and strengthens your aura. If your surrounding energy feild is strong with no dips or wholes, or thin then it helps you when you have to be in stressful situations. Also Labradorite and Fluorite are good for protecting you from negative energy, psychic attack
A great visualisation I have also used is mirrors around me, it will delflect things back.
I hope you dont mind me saying too, but be careful with crystals and salt water, the salt can sometimes scratch them, especially some of the softer stones, you can actually give them Reiki to cleanse them too

Hmmm seems I am a bit behind!!! This was back in May!!! Hope things are much better for you know DragonFly
Love Light and Hugs xx

oh dear I really am behind

Glad things are better! Hugs x
