Don't Let Fear Run Your Mind

I would like to give you an update on House Bill 16-1320. The fear that I have seen going around the metaphysical community is that soon Reiki practitioners and others who practice various alternative healing modalities will need to be licensed by the state. Therefore I attended the DORA meeting last Monday to receive the information right from the source.

I am happy to tell you that from what I perceived, there is no need for concern. DORA assured us that they have no intention of creating a need for any more licensures than are already in place. The bill is to allow DORA to partner with law enforcement to stop the sex and human trafficking that has become a major problem in the Denver area. Reiki and other healing modalities are listed as exempt in the bill.

The concern of some in the alternative healing community is that these exemptions can be removed by DORA if there are too many complaints and arrests connected with one modality. Some of the attendees are asking for the wording to be adjusted so the individual, not the modality, becomes exempt.

I feel Reiki will not be one of the healing modalities that could be affected by these changes in the future. As I mentioned in my last blog, do not allow fear to run in your mind and affect your outside world. What you resist persists. Stay in your heart and know you create your own reality and that is what will bring peace into your being.

In love and admiration,

You Are a Beacon of Light

It has been brought to my attention that there is new legislation in Colorado, House Bill 16-1320, that will dictate how Reiki can be administered. The bill that has been passed by both Houses and is now on the desk of Governor John Hickenlooper, will require everyone offering any type of alternative holistic care to have a massage license.

Do not allow this to elicit fear. Life is about change. If this change occurs, then we will change with it. It will not stop how we help others in need. Our practice is one of love and light. Nothing can change that. Stay in your heart; write to Governor Hickenlooper and let him know how you feel about this bill, and then release it out into the Universe.

The power of love is stronger than any rule that a government agency can create. You are that essence of love and you are trained in how to transfer it to others. Focus on that and fear will subside.

In the Light,
Marnie

Your Heart is Already Protected

For the last 10 days I have been in a retreat, of sorts, having contracted a bacterial infection that put me out of commission. I have spent most of the day sleeping, reading and, when I had enough energy (that took about a week), in meditation.  It is so interesting to see, when the body cannot function in its usual mode, what happens to the psyche.

For the most part I have been in silence, not speaking and also no chatter in my head. As my energy revived I found meditation to be my calming companion. One thing that has arisen is the care of my heart because the dis-ease of my body was in my chest. I have felt my heart physically, emotionally, and spiritually. One part of the heart I have ignored is the pericardium so I have spent sometime contemplating this organ and the meridian line to it from the middle finger up the arm and into the chest.

The mind works best when it has an image to focus upon. The pericardium wraps itself around the heart and secures it. It is its protection. Over the years there have been many ways I have protected my heart but none of those ways elicit the physical embrace of the pericardium. I have heard the term but never really understood its function. Now I not only can see it, I can feel it.

My suggestion for this week is to research this organ of utmost importance. This will give your mind an image to visualize as you open your heart knowing that it is already protected and wrapped in love on the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual level.

Embracing your heart,
