The Universe Has Our Back

by Karen Berg

"Instead of feeling doubt every time something seemingly negative happens, what we should be saying is: “I don’t understand this situation, but I’ve done everything I can to make it a positive experience. So I’ll have certainty that in the larger scheme of things, the situation is indeed positive.” With this consciousness, we give darkness no entry into our experience or our life.

Today, when something doesn’t go as planned, have certainty that the universe is working for your highest good."

Friday Flowers: Cerato

On Fridays I like to post "Friday Flowers" to add some beauty to your day. So, here are some Friday Flowers for you, as well as some insightful info on how the Bach Flower Remedy for this particular flower can help people who find themselves needing it.

Your Friday Flower for today is Cerato...

This is the remedy for people who lack faith in their own judgment. When faced with making a decision (or having made one), they second guess themselves and they go around asking for opinions and advice from others – ending up even more confused because they did not follow their hearts.

Cerato helps us to listen to our inner voice and trust our intuition, so that we can make decisions based on our own guidance and not that of others. It restores the qualities of inner certainty and wisdom. You are the expert of your life and Cerato helps you to remember this.

Dr. Bach said: “Those who have not sufficient confidence in themselves to make their own decisions. They constantly seek advice from others, and are often misguided.”
The Twelve Healers and Other Remedies

In short: Asking others for advice instead of trusting own judgment. Restores inner wisdom and trust in self.

New Year, New Beginnings?

If this resonates with you, then maybe the idea of becoming an Independent Consultant with Neal's Yard Remedies Organic is something you'd like to consider?

It is a hugely rewarding experience and great fun. Neal's Yard Remedies currently have an incredible offer of £60 for a kit of over £200 worth of full sized products. If you sign up, you will receive a 25% discount off any products you order, you will get 25% commission off products that you sell and you have the option to earn additional income through parties. Got a holiday to pay for ??

The ethos of Neal's Yard Remedies Organic is to spread the word about organic products that do not harm us, animals, or the environment. They are the world’s first health & beauty brand to be awarded 100/100 for ethics in an independent audit by The Ethical Company Organisation.

You do not have to sell if you don't want to, and you can simply sign up to buy products for your own personal use. No targets, no pressure - which is exactly why I signed up ;-)

The offer will revert to £95 on 15 February. Contact me to find out more or JOIN HERE

I have personally gone through the kit contents and priced them up one by one. If you were to buy all the items in your kit individually, it would cost you over £250 - never mind the fact that it's simply not possible to buy the trolley! So, £60 for the chance of getting over £250 worth of products, as well as 25% of any products you buy in the future (at the very least, as this is in addition to any sale discounts), as well as the chance to earn 25% off any products you sell - it most certainly seems like there must be a catch because surely nothing can be so good... can it? Well, I can tell you that there certainly is no catch, it just is what is it is; a superb offer that you would kick your self for not taking advantage of.

Labelling...

How are you labelling yourself today ?
– or this year ?
– or this lifetime ?

I once worked for civil engineers and we had a little picture of a crane that we used on presentations. What do you think that crane picture was saved on the computer server as?
“Crane picture” perhaps?
No, it was actually called “Derek”.

Huh? I can hear your confusion from here. I couldn’t agree more.
 
The crane picture had been named Derek some years back because the man who originally drew it was called Derek, and the name had just stuck. People no longer referred to it as ‘the crane picture’ but simply as ‘Derek’, even though it really wasn’t a particularly suitable, or useful, or even vaguely descriptive title.
 
In that moment that the crane picture was originally saved to the server, the person who called it Derek simply needing to label it, didn’t for even a second realise how longstanding the impact would be of calling the picture that.
So, when you label yourself or others as something, you are doing exactly the same thing.
 
Is there a label you have given yourself which, no matter how outdated and incorrect it may be, you still believe of yourself? In that moment of labelling yourself, what image have you created for yourself, and of yourself? Did you once call yourself ‘lazy’ for not tidying your room (when you were a teenager), and yet now, even though you are highly motivated, do you still on some level believe yourself to be lazy?
 
How does that effect how you see yourself?
What impact does that have on you in other aspects of your life?
 
You may work very hard not to be lazy but because of that one incorrect label, it may still haunt you and sit at the back of your mind, which just isn’t very fair on you. Take a moment to think about what labels you may have given yourself that have not been updated. Do this in fairness to yourself so that you can re-name those labels and enjoy the freedom of spirit that comes with that change. ‘Lazy’? No! Actually, it should be ‘Motivated’.
 
How you label yourself (or how you assume a parent, partner, or significant other has labelled you in the past) has an impact on your overall self-image and consequently on your self-esteem and success in life. Make sure you are keeping the highest image of yourself in your mind to support you through your journey in life. Your labels should be updated, current, useful and helpful.
 
Make sure that your labels reflect who you truly are, and want to be!
The beginning of the year is a prime opportunity for you to make this change. Set the intention that now, and for the rest of this year, that you’re going to do that and see how positively life-changing it can be.

Merry Christmas!

Wishing you and all your loved ones, a wonderful and very  Merry Christmas and a happy New Year!

I hope that 2015 will bring each of you much joy, love and laughter.

With warmest wishes,

Peace and being Present

This quote is so popular on social media because it strikes a chord in all of us.

Depression is anger turned inward. Worry is something we all deal with almost daily.

This quote is a reflection of the Reiki Precepts:
Just for today, do not anger.
Just for today, do not worry.

Not only does it show how an awareness of the Reiki Precepts can lead to inner peace but it also shows how accessible and useful they are in application to daily life.

When we practice Reiki, by its very nature, it draws us firmly into the present moment and in that moment, we are free from anger, worry, depression, anxiety... whilst at the same time receiving healing on a physical, mental and emotional level too.

Mikao Usui taught Reiki as a method because he realised that it was an accessible way for everyone to gain peace and happiness without having to be practiced monks or specially trained.

Reiki is not only a method for hands on healing but also a spiritual path for happiness that everyone can easily follow. Through the practice of Reiki we can grow and develop into that happy, peaceful person we wish to be and all by simply being aware of the precepts for guidance, practicing hands on healing and essentially, sharing love and caring with ourselves and others.

Wishing each of you a genuinely blessed Reiki day.

Friday Flowers For You

I was lifted by the simple and yet stunning beauty of these flowers on a visit to Wisley Gardens recently, so I wanted to share them with you.

Happy Friday Everyone ;-)

Valuable lessons for life... Don't interrupt others or finish their sentences

This morning I was having a look through my book case and happened upon the superb little book "Don't Sweat the Small Stuff" by Richard Carlson.

I decided to open it randomly to see what would come up and a brilliant little chapter entitled "Don't interrupt others or finish their sentences" was what I found. It was so brilliant in fact, that I decided to share it with you.

I for one know that this is a lesson I should take heed of. My excuse is that if I don't say what I want to say at the time, it's gone from my head forever - which, as frustrating as it is, is still just an excuse. As Mr. Carlson so rightly says "this insidious tendency is nothing more than an innocent habit" but once you can get the hang of noticing it and take action - by consciously deciding not to interrupt someone - then you will soon notice how much more pleasure you get from conversations and especially, how much more you will learn from others and also learn about others.

Now that you've read this, do you notice yourself interrupting? How does it make you feel when someone else interrupts you? Feel free to share you comments, I'd love to hear from you.

New Website and Special Offer!

Introducing my new website!

As I watch my son grow bigger before my eyes, I too have been going through a period of growth and development. So, it is after many hours of joyous hard work, that I am proud and excited to unveil my new website.

I wanted to develop a website that would grow and change with me, but with an address that would always stay constant - and what better than my own name?

I would like you to share in my delight so, I am offering everyone who books a treatment by the end of August, a complimentary second treatment - be that Reiki, Bach Flower Remedies, Animal Consultations or Angel Card Readings.

Please join me in celebrating by forwarding this newsletter on to others, so that they can celebrate with us too. You could even give your second treatment to a friend as a gift!

There are some nifty little 'Share' buttons on this page to help you spread the word.

Please subscribe below so that you can receive special offers, upcoming course dates and news. (Oh dear, just think of the brilliant offers you would miss!)

Too much sun today? Try this for sore skin relief.

If, like me, you forgot how blazingly hot the sun can be (and who could blame us, it's been such a long time since we really saw it!), then you could be looking a little on the blush side of red this evening. Fear not, help is at hand.

Try using Bach Rescue Cream on your skin for quick and effective relief. It contains the famous Rescue Remedy Flower blend, as well as Crab Apple. It absorbs quickly, leaving no residue and can be safely used on the face, hands and body.

I have tried and tested this so I can reliably inform you that it works wonders! 

See the picture below for more info or visit Nelsons Natural World

This cat has had Reiki... can you tell?!

If you would like your kitty to look like this, then book them in for a healing treatment.

Psst... Look out for an upcoming special offer to celebrate this new website!
