Searching....

[He****]

Greetings lovely people,

 

I had been searching for something for a while...

Initially I didn't know what it was. I just knew something was missing. I read just about every self help/metaphysical book you could think of. These would give me a temporary high, but then I would still come back to the same feeling. I changed jobs and  moved house, I would feel better, but then that feeling would slowly creep back. I went on silent retreats, travelled far and wide, lived off grid, meditated, tried various forms of therapy but still felt the same. I went through a stage where I disconnected from everyone around me. I convinced myself that I didn't need anyone. Things got so dark for me, I wouldn't even allow the sun to shine through my windows. 

 

Then one day, I opened up, and let one person in...It wasn't as bad as my mind decided it would be. Actually, it was pleasant. Over time, I started to become more open to people and new situations. I started to disconnect from materialistic things that I once thought were important and started to connect with the earth and nature. I started to feel peoples energy/vibrations and gravitated towards higher vibrations. I became more appreciative of the natural elements. Something as simple as walking barefoot on grass would  make my heart sing. All of a sudden, I was no longer searching. Beautiful people, situations, opportunities were constantly appearing in my life. Instead of reacting to energy vampires and people who thrived on animosity (who will be everywhere regardless of how high your vibration is), I was able to respond and even change the energy without being affected by it. 

 

As of February 2020, I will be working a three day week, so that I can dedicate two days of the week to my personal development and spiritual growth. I want to ask if anyone has any advice, ideas, projects that they would be happy to share with each other. I'm reaching out to this forum, as I feel that we all gravitated to  happiness.com for a good reason. I have some knowledge about energy healing and certain spiritual practices that I learned on my travels, that I am happy to share with you all. Is anyone interested in sharing ideas and thoughts too???...

 

the search continues...

I do reiki. It is not for spiritual reasons except that it feels healing. It is an energy not a spiritual practice. A person has to be initiated by someone who has a legit lineage back to one of the three first Japanese teachers of reiki in order to practice it. You can take a class.

Thanks, would you recommend anyone in particular.. it definitely something I’m open to.

I think you would have to search for a teacher locally. I am only reiki 2. Teachers are reiki 3rd initiation. This is one of a number of well known teachers. It depends on where you live. https://www.reiki.org/faqs/what-reiki or try searching worldwide here https://iarpreiki.org/Find-Reiki-Practitioners-Teachers

I added a link above for finding teachers and practitioners worldwide since I see you are in the UK.

I've done exactly the same from Jan 2020 working part time, to enable me to explore the opportunities to help me grow as a person and to embrace life to the max. Currently embracing meditation, yoga and reiki ❤

That’s fantastic, I’ve tried it before and it actually gave me more balance. It’s a small financial sacrifice but worth it for self development and growth.

Hey Healingsista, so happy for you! At the moment I live in Weston-super-mare, but plan to move soon. Still didn't decide to Bristol, or London, or Amsterdam :) Just weeks before was at Ayahuasca ceremony in Amsterdam, and Aya ( the Great Spirit of Earth, or.. who knows, maybe the Spirit of Life in this amazing Universe ) totally heal and free me, and.. speechless.. still in integrating process, but one thing is for sure. Now I feel alive, so alive, and want and feel ready to grow, to service for the happiness and enlightenment of everyone. I knew lots of healing methods.. my favourite is Matrix Energetics on Dr. Richard Bartlett. I like theatre a lot and think about turning back theatre, especially improv theatre to our human spirit roots. Now ( these days ) more oriented in meditations and singing, but with the knowledge, that Aya is now deep in me I have no clue, where I will be tomorrow! Blessings, x x x

Hey Ivayo,

sounds like you had a life changing experience with Ayahuasca, would love to hear more about it. Im sure your spirit will guide you to the best place for you (of course if you come to London, would be great to cross paths). Il look into Dr Richard Bartlett. Sending love, light and blessings xxx
