3 Common Characteristics of People with Strong Intuition

Do you recognize these three common characteristics of people with strong intuition and honor yourself for them?

People with strong intuition have widely varied traits, yet they all have some common characteristics. We all have intuitive ability. In this article, I’m talking about the traits of people who live fully tuned into their innate psychic natures.

1. Imagination is a CHARACTERISTIC of people with strong INTUITION

The first characteristic commonly held by those with strong intuition is imagination.  Imagination stems from the creative part of your brain and opens the doorway to daydreams and visions. Daydreams provide an abundance of soul-level guidance.

When you imagine, you see pictures on your internal screen of your mind’s eye. This is the same place where you see psychic visions.

The canvas of your mind’s eye is where your guides paint intuitive images for you. Your inner being and guides create pictures that you can understand and have some sort of personal meaning for you.

You also use imagination when using the psychic technique of projection. Projecting yourself into the future with your imagination empowers manifesting your desires. The distant Reiki symbol is helpful to empower your goals and project your consciousness.

Allow yourself to imagine often. It will strengthen your ability to see clearly on the screen of your mind’s eye. You can even ask questions of your higher self or guides and notice the inner visions you have. Ideas pop in your mind in the context of your imagination. Those are your divine answers.

When using Reiki, allow your mind to wander and notice any thoughts or images that appear. This is the Reiki energy using your imagination to communicate with you.

2. Focused on inner perceptions

The second characteristic of someone with strong intuition is being inwardly focused on your own perceptions. The ability to turn in and notice what’s going on within yourself is a key aspect of being strongly intuitive. This helps build trust in what you perceive. If you resist turning inward, you will have a hard time distinguishing your guidance from other people’s influence.

Confidence in your own inner awareness and intuitive guidance is often developed by trial and error. After regretting not trusting your own inner knowing, the inner confidence comes in.  

Hindsight is 20/20. For example, those moments when you say to yourself, “I knew I should have done that.” Often followed by, “Why did I listen to so and so?” Those times help you trust the guidance that comes next time. Keep track of when you intuition was right, even if you failed to act on it at the time.

What it comes down to, is understanding that your inner sensations are telling you something about the unseen in your life (or the lives of those around you) and fully trusting that information.

This ability to turn within and trust your inner world is what helps distinguish between intuitive guidance and fear based, wishful thinking or other people’s influence. Until you have the confidence of trusting your guidance, you may have the inclination to think your are making things up.

It just takes a little practice to fully cultivate the confidence in the intuitive information and trust that it isn’t just the imagination. If you are seeking answers, usually, the first thing that pops into mind is the intuitive information. After that your logical mind takes over.

Your inner perceptions are there guiding you and helping you choose the best option for you in any given moment. Remember to turn within to find your clarity. The answers always come from within.

3. Sensitivity

The third characteristic of strongly intuitive people is they are very sensitive to the energy around them, whether it be thoughts, feeling, emotions. Intuitive individuals are always picking up on what’s going on around them.

Unless you have the proper tools which enable you to run your own energy, you could be uncomfortable or over-stimulated in larger groups of people. You may not even be able to tell which emotions and thoughts are your own. You might think you feel one way, then get away from others and find out that you feel completely different.

For example, when you are with other who are sad about something, you may experience feeling sad and even cry. When you are back by yourself you realize that you don’t really feel sad at all. You were just energetically feeling their sadness in your energy body.

In conclusion, if you recognize these characteristics in yourself you are most certainly a person with strong intuition. Reiki has strengthens and helps develop your intuition In addition, Reiki is always there to guide you when you look within. Lastly, Reiki helps you live more comfortably with your energetic sensitivity.

If you are looking to strengthen your intuition, check out the Heal Yourself Program. It’s a foundational part of developing your intuition.

Reiki also helps you strengthen your intuition by opening your chakras. If you aren’t already, get attuned to Reiki, to befriend your intuition on a deeper level.

4 Things You Can Do To Get Lasting Reiki Benefits

Reiki can heal all sorts of conditions. It can lift away the underlying energetic causes and help you create new and healthy energetic patterns. Many people notice profound shifts after a Reiki session where they are filled with more peace, less pain, and feel more love and optimism. Some shifts last for a day, weeks, months or permanently.

Do you ever wonder how to make your positive Reiki results last longer? I have been told by my Reiki guides that the Reiki has cleared the underlying energy but that the client would recreate the pattern in their mind. What can you do to keep the old energy pattern out of your life after a Reiki session?Healthy shifts

The first thing you can do to help the Reiki give you more lasting benefits is to strengthen your belief that you can heal or that your goal is possible. I often see the Reiki helping to build people’s belief and hope in their body’s ability to heal itself. We have all experienced a cut at some point in our lives. Most people don’t ever wonder if their body knows how to heal a cut. Your cells are always working to restore health and balance. Reiki gives all the cells in your body energetic support to do what they naturally do, keep you healthy. No matter the condition, your body is designed to heal itself when given proper rest and nutrition. Just be aware and notice if you belief you can heal, that things can change and that your goals are possible. If you can imagine it, it is possible.

The second thing you can do is to know and trust that you deserve to be healthy, abundant and whole. Reiki can help you with this too, by working in your energy field to increase your sense of self-worth. Remember you deserve to attain your health, financial and relationship goals. The Reiki can help clear blocks and any tendency to self sabotage.

The third thing you can do to help the Reiki healing last longer is to be willing to make changes. The Reiki can clear the energy, but in order to not recreate the initial condition you may need to make changes in the way you think or act. The Reiki will give you ideas and inspiration. But it can’t make you act upon those ideas. Are you willing to shift your perspective? Are you willing to do something different? Like Albert Einstein said, “No problem can be solved from the same level of consciousness that created it.”Once Reiki raises your consciousness, you are inspired to make changes.

The fourth shift you can make to promote lasting Reiki benefits is to eat more healthy foods and avoid the foods that feed underlying pathogens. The Reiki heals and restores your body and mind. When you ingest foods and drinks that are damaging to your body, it is like getting your car engine repaired and continuing to put the wrong kind of fuel in your car. Eggs, refined sugar and dairy feed pathogens. Fruits, vegetables and living water support your body’s self repair abilities.

Do your best to allow your choices and attitude to work with the Reiki. Stay open to allowing the Reiki to positively influence your choices. Remember the Reiki is always working for your highest good and most benevolent outcomes. No matter the personal choices you make, the Reiki always works in your favor. But it can’t force you to make healthy and positive choices, that part is up to you.

Reiki First Response

After being on the scene for a wilderness rescue in the same week that a good friend was first on the scene of a car accident, I have been thinking about how wonderful Reiki is for first response in emergency situations.

When I was visiting my sister in Sedona in March, we were enjoying relaxing by the creek. We heard a man calling for help. At first we weren’t sure if he was actually asking for help or playing around with his friends. We knew he was with at least two other people. We heard him yelling,”I am over here! I fell off the mountain!”  We gathered that he had at least broken his leg as we listened to him calling out in pain and agony. We couldn’t see him from where we were.

rescue 1I knew we had to help. My sister went to find him, make sure his friends were with him and to get to higher ground to call 911. There was no signal where we were. I remained at our spot by the creek nearby and immediately started sending Reiki. The Reiki was flowing strongly with my hands getting super hot.

I learned from my daughter’s friend that you can call 911 with no service.  I tried it and it worked. I also learned not to assume that the local first responders know the area well. None of them had been down to this part of the creek. They went to the wrong place at first and it took them over an hour to get to this man. Had I known this, I would have stayed on the phone with 911 and given very detailed directions.

While we awaited the EMT’s, I stayed where I was relaxing by the creek. I kept sending Reiki that everyone would be guided on what to do and to help the victim with his injuries. The victim was in an out of consciousness and growing weaker. We hoped the rescuers would be there before it was too late. I could feel the Reiki soothing him and performing  its magical healing. His injuries turned out to be a broken arm, leg, ribs, punctured lung. And that’s just what the first responders could tell.

My sister helped the first responders locate the victim. She also was giving them advice on the best path out and helping them carry equipment. Lots of choices were made. One being for them to call in the helicopter instead of taking him out on the trail. I trust the Reiki helped them all work together for the best possible outcome for this young man.

Looking back on this incident, it was amazing to see a rescue happen first hand. People really do come together. Everyone does the best they can in the moment. Everyone does what they are guided to do.

My first response is always Reiki. And I am best with a small layer of separation if possible. Although in this situation, if my sister had not checked on him I would have gone to him.

I remember during that hour we waited for the emergency responders, I tapped into the energy of people all over the world responding to crisis situations. I connected to all the other people who were sending Reiki in first response to an emergency. I knew I wasn’t the only one.

Then I tapped into the energy of wellness happening in the world. The wellness always far outweighs the turmoil. There is wellness even in a crisis if you look for it. You can always connect with the feelings of love and peace within you no matter what is happening around you. I found aligning with the inner calm within me was very powerful. I know the Reiki facilitated that blissful feeling, even when I knew there was a man suffering nearby.

Always remember you have far more to offer from your place of well-being than from your place of worry and fear. And no matter how you personally feel when you send Reiki to someone, the Reiki will enter them feeling like love and peace. It won’t transfer your nervous energy or fear to the receiver.Rescue 2

I also was acutely aware of not being attached to the outcome in this instance. Of course, my human mind wanted him to live to tell about surviving his fall off a cliff. But I also knew, that the Reiki would help him cross over if it was meant to be for him. I believe this man lived through this experience. Part of not being attached to the results in this instance was not being attached to knowing the outcome at all.

We left when they asked us to clear the area for the helicopter. We knew that we had helped all we could at this point.

Should you find yourself in an emergency situation here are some helpful suggestions for giving Reiki as first response:

  1. Turn on your Reiki!
  2. Trust your guidance.
  3. Call 911 even if you have no signal or you think someone else may have called.
  4. Ask the Reiki to insulate you from the trauma and keep you grounded.
  5. Send Reiki to the injured.
  6. Send Reiki to those on the scene helping. The Reiki will support the best course of action to unfold. It will help those involved make decisions that serve the highest good, by helping them stay clear, focused and open to infinite wisdom.
  7. Send Reiki to the emergency professionals. They are working hard and doing their best.
  8. For the victim(s), I think the best choice is hands off, beaming, unless you personally know the person. Of course, ask permission if you can or send with the intention that the injured person receives based on their free will. Remember if you are directly with the injured, don’t move them. Just help them stay calm where they are with Reiki.
  9. Trust the Reiki to work for the highest good of all concerned. Release your attachments to the results
  10. When it’s all over, remember to give yourself Reiki to sooth and calm your own nervous system. A good place to Reiki yourself is your mid-back, adrenal glands. You can also Reiki your root chakra to ground yourself.

You are far more powerful in offering assistance if you stay centered in your love and light. If an injured person feels your fear and worry, you add to their fear and worry. The Reiki adds strength, love and peace. Trust that you are helping far more than you may ever know by mediating and sending Reiki. And don’t worry if you are feeling off center, the Reiki will still work in calming them and you.

I’m sure that Reiki in its infinite wisdom places Reiki practitioners where they are most needed in any given moment. It could be you first on the scene one day. I hope this article helps you feel more prepared.

In loving Reiki light,

Christy

How to Surrender Personal Will to Divine Will with Reiki

I always affirm that I’m a clear and open channel and my ego steps aside before giving Reiki healing.

It’s not always easy putting the ego, the human mind aside. Your divine mind is sometimes directing you towards something your human perspective resists.

For example, I dreamt on was on the LA free way.  I knew in my heart that divine will wanted me to move to Los Angelus. This is not an area I’m drawn to. To be clear, I would never want to move there. Yet, I knew in my dream that I would follow my soul level guidance and to move, even though it’s not what my logical self would choose.

Looking back on my dream, I remembered that all of the lanes ahead of me were clear of traffic. The road was wide open and freshly paved. From what I know of traffic in LA, this is a miracle in and of itself. I did end up moving to Boulder after this dream which seemed like a big city compared to where I lived in the mountains.

This dream reminded me that if I’m meant to travel in a certain direction in my life, the universe will definitely clear the path for me.

It was also clear in my dream that it wasn’t a literal message to move. Just an example for me that I would understand.

You can trust that your soul-level, divine self holds a broader perspective than your human perspective. Sometimes, the guidance makes sense to your mind and other times it doesn’t. You can trust the universe to keep you on the best path for you, especially when you stay connected with your own inner stream of well being.

How can you use Reiki to stay connected with your soul level self and align your personal will with divine will?

  • 506_426285694127990_178325804_n-2Reiki your throat chakra a lot.  This is the center where your heart and mind connect. You will build trust in acting on your inner guidance. It will also help you align your emotional and mental energies.
  • Reiki your soul star chakra along with your heart and root. This will get you into your soul level perspective more fully.
  • To calm your ego mind, try sending Reiki to your solar plexus.
  • To deepen your connection with your dream state guidance, send some Reiki to your third eye and ascended heart chakras.
  • To get ground your soul’s intentions, Reiki your root and Earth star chakras.  You may find you take inspired actions that bypass your thinking. Just doing something without even knowing why.

Surrendering your will to divine will doesn’t mean you will lead a life of boredom and drudgery. It will open you to a life of fulfillment beyond your human mind knows how to dream up. You can step into living unknown possibilities.

Sometimes you will be seem to be in a holding pattern, not moving forward. While spirit is clearing the path ahead of you.

Other times you will be moving ahead at a high level of speed which requires all of your focus and attention.

Ask the Reiki to flow to you to help you get in alignment with where you are just now. The Reiki really can help you be in a state of love and appreciation with your life while connecting you more fully with your soul level awareness.

In loving Reiki light,

Christy

 

Attracting Your Soul Mate with Reiki

Reiki Rose water

I was recently asked if Reiki can help attract a loving partner?

Yes, you can use Reiki to help attract your soul mate. But like anything else with Reiki, don’t be attached to certain results. Reiki always works in alignment with your most benevolent outcome.

Sometimes your highest soul-level growth comes from being single and sometimes it comes from being in relationship. There is someone who is a perfect vibrational match for you. Just have patience and trust the divine timing.

 

Clearing Out the Old Energy

Reiki will not only help you attract an ideal soul mate, it will help you clear your relationship patterns that no longer serve you.You can use Reiki to clear out your energy after ending a relationship. The last thing you want to do is attract a new relationship filled with the same problems as the last one.

 
 

By using Reiki on yourself to become aware and release your patterns, you will set the stage for a truly new relationship.  The only constant factor in all your relationships is “You”.  With Reiki, you can fine tune yourself to be the best possible You, to attract the best possible partner for you.

 
 

For example, say you just ended a relationship with someone who you argued with a lot. If you don’t clear your vibration of argumentative energy, you’ll end up in another argumentative relationship. Of course, you may not notice this until after the newness wears off. If you’re still a vibrational match to arguing, that’s what you’ll attract.

 
 

With Reiki you can clear the energy in you that resonates with arguing , so you’re no longer a vibrational match to it (or whatever undesired relationship quality you’ve been experiencing). That way when you start a new relationship it can be truly fresh and new. You can create a sacred space with your new lover to reflect your current and new level of vibration.

 
 

Here’s just one idea for a way to clear out an old energetic pattern:

 
 

Reiki yourself while imagining the Reiki vacuuming away all the energy of your previous relationship that no longer serves you.  It can be a certain quality like arguing, playing the victim or feelings of abandonment.  Allow the Reiki to remove any unwanted energy while remaining open for personal insights and awareness into your relationship patterns.

 
 

Once you feel like you have cleared out all the unwanted energy allow yourself to be filled with Reiki and qualities which serve you to embrace like, clear communication, empowerment, and feeling connected with your divine self.

 

Appreciating Being Single

Reiki will also assist you in truly appreciating the time between relationships.  Reiki can illuminate your soul level desires and passions bringing them to the forefront, so you’ll remember what’s important to your soul level path in life.  With Reiki, you’ll get clear on aspects you are not willing to compromise on in your next relationship.

 
 

Reiki can help you learn to savor being in relationship with yourself as you treat yourself as you would a dearest love.  What a great way to nurture yourself by using the loving and nurturing energy of Reiki.  The deeper your self-love, the deeper your capacity to love another.

 

Cultivating Patience and Trust

You’ve done your inner work and are radiating your loving self.  Now you are ready to attract your loving soul mate.  Perhaps you’ve already started sending Reiki to meeting him/her.  You’re going to social functions that you’re guided to go to.  Still no luck.

Remember to send Reiki to yourself and cultivate patience and trust in divine timing.  When you are a perfect vibrational match to meeting someone you will.  Often when you least expect it and at a time you hadn’t even been giving meeting someone the slightest thought.  (It’s in those times, you are offering no resistance to meeting your lover.)

Connecting on the Spiritual Plane

Reiki Soul Mate
 
 

You can use Reiki to connect with your soul mate on the spiritual plane before you meet in the physical.  If you are attuned to the second degree, use the distant symbol to connect with the soul energy of your next ideal lover, whether it be your soul mate or twin soul. Intend that you connect in the astral plane during your dreams.

If you’re a Reiki I, just Reiki yourself with the intention that you’ll be connected spiritually with your ideal loving partner while meditating or during your sleep.

 
 

Just enjoy the feeling of connecting while savoring feelings of soul-level love.  Perhaps you’ll remember past life connections or glimpses of soul level memories.

Don’t get caught up trying to figure out where, when and how you meet in the physical.  Getting focused on specifics will most likely put you in a state of resistance.  If you get some details great, but the main point of connecting with your love on the spiritual plane is to feel the love and instill a sense of faith and trust.

 

Meeting Your Soul Mate

Keep sending Reiki without attachment to when, where and how. Stay open to the guidance your given. There’s no right or wrong way to meet. If you’re inspired to online date, go for it. If you just know that you’re meant to attend an event, then buy your ticket.

Keep your attention on loving yourself and radiating who you truly are.  There’s nothing more attractive than someone shining their soul-level self.

Trust that you’ll know in your heart and mind that you’ve met your loving partner. You may feel this knowing at first sight or perhaps after many years.  Know that you are love and deserve to be loved.

In loving Reiki light!

When Reiki Becomes The Teacher and Guide

I always teach students in my Reiki workshops that Reiki will lead and guide them along their paths if they open themselves up to receiving Reiki guidance.  I am a Reiki Teacher, yet the fuller truth is Reiki itself is the Teacher.  I am a vessel that the Reiki energy and information goes through. Just as the Reiki practitioner is a channel for the healing energy to move through.

In each Reiki workshop I am guided on how to best convey the Reiki teachings to the individuals in the class.  I teach the same things in each workshop, yet the way things are worded or how I have the student practice may be slightly different.

Once I’ve attuned students to Reiki my goal is to have them reach a place of confidence, trust and reliance on the Reiki.  My aim is to have the new Reiki practitioner leave the Reiki workshop empowered and dedicated to using Reiki in their lives daily.  I encourage them to integrate the Reiki into what ever  practices they are already using in their lives such as: yoga, massage, meditation, modern medicine, therapy, dance, career, parenting or play.

How do I foster my student’s confidence in using Reiki? The Reiki Muse

1. I allow for plenty of practice time using Reiki.  Reiki energy is unseen by most.  Therefore, giving and receiving Reiki during the workshop allows for the student to develop a relationship with the Reiki.  How it feels when it flows through them.  How the Reiki cycles, ebbs and flows.  What it feels like to receive Reiki.

2. I encourage the person receiving Reiki and for the giver of Reiki to share what they notice when Reiki is being given.  This helps the new Reiki practitioners trust in the unseen effects of the Reiki.  When someone first learns Reiki it’s so important to have feedback, so they know they aren’t making things up in their head.

For example, the Reiki student feels that the receiver of Reiki needs Reiki at the hips and goes there first.  The acknowledgement of the person on the table that they’ve had hip problems bolsters the confidence of the new Reiki practitioner.

3. I have the students practice various techniques during the workshop to show powerful ways Reiki can be used.

4. All the while during a Reiki workshop, I’m asking my students to tap into and trust their intuition, because the Reiki will guide Reiki practitioner.  It’s such a joy to watch people trust their guidance.  Watching people feel with their hands and go where the Reiki sends them the messages.  Sometimes the Reiki’s direction is tingling hands, sometimes inner knowing, or an inner voice, a picture in the mind or a feeling in the body.

The only thing that puts any limits on the use of Reiki is a lack of creativity.  I encourage the students to tap into their creative source and to be open to how Reiki can be used to promote healing and energetic wellbeing in their lives.

My hope is that once leaving my workshops that the Reiki practitioners go from hearing my voice in their heads when they use Reiki to hearing the voice and inner promptings of the Reiki.  Reiki attunements open the third eye and heart chakras allowing for a deepening of intuition.

Not only will the Reiki guide You in how, when and where use Reiki.  Reiki will guide You on your path to self-awareness.  Reiki will put creative ideas for how to use Reiki that suit You or people You know.  You just need to be open and allow yourself to trust the Reiki guidance.

You’re not making it up.  The Reiki guidance is real even if it’s unseen.   That’s part of the benefit of being with others when You learn.  It’s so easy to see how strong your intuition is using Reiki, when You have feedback from others in your Reiki workshop confirming what You are sensing.

It’s such a joy to hear about ways that Reiki has guided students when they come back for Reiki II, Reiki III or Karuna Reiki®.  Not only will Reiki guide You in your healing process and how to best help other’s in their healing, it will guide You in your path of self-discovery and persoanl awareness.

I’m with You when You learn Reiki, yet the Reiki is with You a life time.  Your connection with Reiki can never be broken.  Keep trusting and following your guidance.
